Kirk Douglas Williams, Appellant v. State of Florida, Appellee — Polston, J., Concurring in Part and Dissenting in Part

Summary

Justice Polston concurred in affirming Williams's murder conviction but disagreed with the majority's treatment of the death sentence. He would have upheld the pecuniary-gain aggravator and the trial court's rejection of impaired-capacity mitigation, but would have remanded for a new penalty phase because the trial court did not specify the weight assigned to each aggravator and the jury recommended death by an eleven-to-one vote.
