Renaldo Devon McGirth, Appellant v. State of Florida, Appellee — Pariente, J., Concurring

Summary

Justice Pariente specially concurs with the majority’s affirmation of McGirth’s convictions and sentence, but argues that the trial court erred in admitting evidence that McGirth had once pulled a knife on the victim’s fiancé and in allowing a penalty‑phase closing argument that likened McGirth to the 9/11 pilots; he concludes that both errors were harmless beyond a reasonable doubt.
