Randy William Gay v. State of Arkansas

Summary

The court affirmed the denial of Randy William Gay’s Rule 37 petition challenging his capital-murder conviction and death sentence. It held that his jury-selection, sentencing-form, verdict-form, and lack-of-remorse arguments were either previously available on direct appeal or failed to establish a fundamental error, and that his ineffective-assistance claims failed because counsel’s challenged decisions were reasonable strategy or caused no reasonable probability of a different result.
