Lionel Michael Miller, Appellant v. State of Florida, Appellee — Pariente, J., Concurring

Summary

Pariente, J. concurs with the majority in affirming Lionel Michael Miller's conviction and death sentence, emphasizing that the presence of a prior violent felony aggravator obviates constitutional challenges to Florida's capital sentencing scheme. The opinion notes that the indictment’s failure to list aggravating circumstances is not constitutionally deficient and that the State provided proper notice of the aggravators. Justice Canady, in a separate concurring opinion, disputes the majority’s suggestions regarding Miranda‑warning requirements and the relevance of the victim’s gender to proportionality review.
