John Sexton, Appellant v. State of Florida, Appellee — Pariente, J., Concurring

Summary

Pariente, J. concurs with the majority in affirming Sexton’s murder conviction, reversing his death sentence, and remanding for a new penalty phase because the Hurst error was not harmless beyond a reasonable doubt. The opinion emphasizes the inability to determine whether the jury unanimously found aggravating factors outweighed mitigation. Separate concurring and dissenting opinions address differing views on the harmless‑error analysis.
