    Arizona hasn't had parole since the 90s. With this SCOTUS ruling this means that any sentencing where the Judge said or mentioned to the jury at any point that the inmates may get out if they don't get death or get paroled is grounds for a new sentencing.

    Amazing another horrible ruling based on a simple error made by the judges.
    "There is a point in the history of a society when it becomes so pathologically soft and tender that among other things it sides even with those who harm it, criminals, and does this quite seriously and honestly. Punishing somehow seems unfair to it, and it is certain that imagining ‘punishment’ and ‘being supposed to punish’ hurts it, arouses fear in it." Friedrich Nietzsche

    When I read Kent Scheidegger's blog post where he said he considered submitting an amicus brief in Cruz and didn't, I realized how much Arizona had judges had been screwing up on this issue.
