Opinion of the Court
C. A. 5th Cir. Application for stay of execution of sentence of death, addressed to Justice Brennan and referred to the Court, denied.
Certiorari denied.
Dissenting Opinion
dissenting.
Adhering to our views that the death penalty is in all circumstances cruel and unusual punishment prohibited by the Eighth and Fourteenth Amendments, Gregg v. Georgia, 428 U. S. 153, 227, 231 (1976), we would grant certiorari and vacate the death sentence in this case.
