Sireci v. State
Annotate this CaseThe Supreme Court affirmed the circuit court’s order denying Henry Perry Sireci’s motion filed under Fla. R. Crim. P. 3.851, holding that Sireci was not entitled to relief pursuant to the United States Supreme Court’s decision in Hurst v. Florida, 136 S. Ct. 616 (2016), and this court’s decision on remand in Hurst v. State (Hurst), 202 So. 3d 40 (Fla. 2016). Sireci was sentenced to death following a jury’s recommendation for death by a vote of eleven to one. Sireci’s sentence of death became final in 1992. The Supreme Court held that Hurst did not apply retroactively to Sireci’s sentence of death and, accordingly, affirmed the denial of Sireci’s motion.
