Bruce Webster is in a solitary, 12\u002Dby\u002D7 foot cell at a penitentiary in Indiana, 23 hours a day. But he\u0027s not supposed to be there.
Several death row inmates told The Associated Press by email that Peters came through their unit on Tuesday and spoke to some prisoners. It’s not known whether she saw Webster or discussed his case.
Webster, who wants to be transferred to a prison near his hometown of Pine Bluff, Arkansas, must be resentenced. It’s supposed to be a formality because life in prison is the only available sentence.Article content “That judgment is final,” the government said about Means’ ruling, adding that it is the department’s position “that Mr. Webster is not currently subject to a valid death sentence.”Advertisement 6The Justice Department executed 13 U.S. death row inmates, some of them Webster’s friends, in the last months of Donald Trump’s presidency. While Biden’s Justice Department paused the executions and reversed decisions to seek death sentences in some cases, it continues to seek them in others.
Whether Webster qualified as intellectually disabled centered on three questions: Was his IQ significantly below average, did he show an inability to learn basic skills and was the onset of the disability apparent before age 18? Prosecutors accused Webster of playing dumb. They said he intentionally answered IQ questions incorrectly to avoid the death penalty. They said proof of his aptitude included how, during a jail stint, he figured out how to pick locks on a food chute to slip into a women’s section.Article content
