Lead Opinion

C. A. 4th Cir. Certiorari denied.






Dissenting Opinion

Justice Brennan and Justice Marshall,

dissenting as to petitioner Larry Darnell Williams.

Adhering to our views that the death penalty is in all circumstances 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.
