Answer to Question 2

An ideal response will:
1, Discuss the ruling of Furman v. Georgia (1972).
2, Describe the concern of the Court that led to the end of the death penalty, noting that the Court did not rule capital punishment unconstitutional, just the manner in which it was being applied by the various states.
