Bradley v. State
Annotate this CaseAfter a jury trial, Defendant was convicted of first-degree murder, robbery, fleeing and eluding, and resisting arrest with violence. At the penalty phase of trial, the jury recommended death by a vote of ten to two. The trial court followed the recommendation and sentenced Defendant to death. The Supreme Court affirmed the trial court’s denial of Defendant’s guilt phase claims but reversed and remanded for a new penalty phase, holding that because the non unanimous jury did not make the findings required under Hurst v. State, the error was not harmless, and Defendant was entitled to a new penalty phase under Hurst v. Florida, as interpreted by the Supreme Court in Hurst v. State.
