Skipper v. South Carolina : ウィキペディア英語版 | Skipper v. South Carolina
''Skipper v. South Carolina'', 478 U.S. 1 (1986) is a United States Supreme Court case in which the Court held that the rule from Lockett v. Ohio dictated that mitigating evidence not be subject to limitations based on relevance. ==Background== Ronald DeRay Skipper was convicted of capital murder and rape in South Carolina. During the penalty phase of his bifurcated trial (as required by Gregg v. Georgia), Skipper sought to introduce as mitigating evidence that he had "adjusted well" to his pre-trial incarceration. Ruling that this evidence was irrelevant, the trial court, in keeping with controlling South Carolina caselaw, excluded the evidence. Skipper was subsequently sentenced to death.
