Oregon justice suggests death penalty review



Print Comment
SALEM, Ore. (AP) — An Oregon Supreme Court justice has recommended that the court review the constitutionality of the death penalty.

Justice Martha Walters wrote in a concurring opinion on a Portland case that the court should consider Oregon’s experience with the death penalty and again examine its constitutionality.

Her recommendation came as the court affirmed the aggravated murder conviction and the death penalty for Michael Andre Davis.

Although Davis had been a suspect since the November 1991 killing of a couple at a Portland hotel, prosecutors didn’t have enough evidence to convict him until 2005.
