Florida executes Jerry Correll

Executions continue after two justices said the death penalty is probably unconstitutional. Today, Breyer dissented on two grounds (others long time on death row though were earlier this year executed without comment from him) and (this time with Sotomayor) because a pending case covers a claim raised. He was executed, appearing to be a "worse of the worst" candidate. What of RBG? Or, Kagan on the second issue? He also opened a way to a Glossip redux dissent but no one bit. Meanwhile, HRC is for kinder and gentler death penalty.
