Crestview, Fla.-Esteemed personal injury attorney in Crestview, Terence Gross of Gross and Schuster, P.A. has recently shown up on the WCOA Radio Show to express his feelings regarding the status of death penalty sentencing in the United States.
A capital punishment case is a type of court case where the legal authority enacts retribution through killing an individual for their crime. Just recently Gross made clear how capital punishment in Florida is constantly being readjusted and changed. The personal injury lawyer in Crestview talked on just how appeals and mitigations have actually been reducing the effectiveness of the legal system.
“It’s a shame how a convicted murderer can literally escape their just deserts by stalling through the appeals process,” Terence Gross said.
In Florida, attorneys are needed to be licensed for death penalty situations. The personal injury attorney in Crestview describes that even with accredited lawyers in addition to no mitigations stemming from the accused's sanity or competency, penalty could still be postponed for upwards of ten years.
“Some states are getting rid of the death penalty not because it’s unjust, but because it’s extremely ineffective,” Gross said. “There is no reason a convicted criminal should escape justice for such a long period of time.”
Gross suggests a standalone 3-panel court including only skilled attorneys that are licenses in capital punishment cases. This would reduce the amount of 3.850 motions across the board, which declares ineffectiveness of council as the primary reason of appeal.
