"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

Batson claim and ineffective counsel. The tl;dr is that one of his co-conspiritors committed the act of murder and that a jury would have been less likely to sentence him to death had they believed he was merely the lookout. One of the cos was brought before a grand jury but managed to come away with a no-bill.
It's also worth noting that granting a COA does not equate to a grant of habeas relief, thus they didn't really fall for anything yet.

"They will hurt you. They will hurt your grandma, these people. The root cause of this is there's no discipline in the homes, they don't go to school, you know, they live off the government, no personal accountability, and they just beat people up for no reason, and it's disgusting." - Former Hamilton County Prosecutor Joe Deters
On May 9, 2022, oral argument will be heard in Nelson's appeal before the Fifth Circuit.
