Opinion. Holy, cow. The State agreed with the Defendant? When did that happen?Dissenting opinion.
(And in completely unrelated news, the insane Texas law allowing police to take blood without a warrant in some DWI situations has been declared unconstitutional by the Republican Texan court. But this was almost a foregone conclusion after a U.S. Supreme Court decision last year.)
Edit: WOW! I missed this huge dissent in another case where the Justice Price says the death penalty should be abolished.
