Lead Opinion
Sup. Ct. Cal. Motion of petitioner to defer consideration of the petition for writ of certiorari denied. Certiorari denied.
Dissenting Opinion
dissenting.
Adhering to our views that the death penalty is in all circuip-stances cruel and unusual punishment prohibited by the Eighth and Fourteenth Amendments, Gregg v. Georgia, 428 U. S. 153, 227, 231 (1976), we would grant certiorari and vacate the death sentence in this case.
