Some Proposed Changes[edit]

Hello, I am employed by Boston University's Fineman & Pappas Law Libraries. After reviewing this Wikipedia page, I believe that information from one of our faculty's scholarship might provide a valuable addition to this page. I would appreciate it if this requested edit could be reviewed.

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered.

Add to the end of the Impact section:

Some academics have argued that the impact of McCleskey v. Kemp has largely been overstated.^[1] Even though McCleskey v.

Bollinger.^[2]^[3]
