Court upholds Jewish inmate’s death sentence
February 9, 2010

(JTA) -- The Florida Supreme Court upheld a death sentence against a Jewish death row inmate.

The court on Monday denied Martin Edward Grossman's claims that he was entitled to a new hearing to determine if his trial lawyer was ineffective for not having him examined by a competent mental health professional and for not presenting mitigating evidence to avoid a death sentence.
