Which of these crimes deserves death? • See the Mc. Gautha. Exercise. pdf on the class web site. • Rate each of them from most deserving (1) to least deserving (10) • Take a few minutes and I’ll ask for results in a series of poll everywhere slides, from first to last of the 10 cases presented. For each one, rank it on the scale from worst to least bad… Take notes for a few minutes on how you would rate each scenario. • (Note you are not voting for death, just ranking in order of most deserving) • Thanks for Prof. Carol Steiker of Harvard Law School for these questions.
