At the site, petitioner, Ricky Tison and Greenawalt placed the gang's possessions in the victims' Mazda and the victims' possessions in the gang's disabled Lincoln Continental. It held that the Tisons "did not specifically intend that the Lyons and Theresa Tyson die, that they did not plot in advance that these homicides would take place, [and] that they did not actually pull the triggers on the guns which inflicted the fatal wounds. The Court found the fact that only 3 of 739 death row inmates had been sentenced to death absent an intent to kill, physical presence, or direct participation in the fatal assault persuasive evidence that American juries considered the death sentence disproportional to felony murder simpliciter. 142 Ariz., at 456, 690 P.2d, at 757. This curious doctrine is a living fossil from a legal era in which all felonies were punishable by death; in those circumstances, the state of mind of the felon with respect to the murder was understandably superfluous, because he or she could be executed simply for intentionally committing the felony.2 Today, in most American jurisdictions and in virtually all European and Commonwealth countries, a felon cannot be executed for a murder that he or she did not commit or specifically intend or attempt to commit. 240, 243, 96 L.Ed.

Gary Tison was sentenced to life imprisonment as the result of a prison escape during the course of which he had killed a guard. The court then reviewed, in a passage this Court quotes at length, ante, at 144-145, petitioners' conduct during the escape and subsequent flight. Since Enmund was decided, the Netherlands and Australia have abolished the death penalty for all offenses, and Cyprus, El Salvador, and Argentina have abolished it for all crimes except those committed in wartime or in violation of military law. 12/02/2020 .

He assisted in the abduction by flagging down the victims as they drove by, while the other members of the gang remained hidden and armed. They were re-sentenced to life in prison,. Because the proportionality inquiry in this case overlooked evidence and considerations essential to such an inquiry, it is not surprising that the result appears incongruous. would clearly support a finding that [both sons] subjectively appreciated that their acts were likely to result in the taking of innocent life"). This Court granted certiorari on the following question: "Is the December 4, 1984 decision of the Arizona Supreme Court to execute petitioners in conflict with the holding of Enmund v. Florida, 458 U.S. 782 [102 S.Ct. Ibid. Ariz.Rev.Stat.Ann. 2861, 53 L.Ed.2d 982 (1977). ("These facts . . "American criminal law has long considered a defendant's intentionand therefore his moral guiltto be critical to the 'degree of [his] criminal culpability.' Randy Greenawalt was in the Arizona State Prison in Florence serving a life sentence for the 1974 murder of a truck driver at a rest stop on Interstate 40 near Winslow. As we have shown, supra, at ----, this standard amounted to little more than a requirement that killing be foreseeable. ." The Arizona Supreme Court wrote: "Intend [sic ] to kill includes the situation in which the defendant intended, contemplated, or anticipated that lethal force would or might be used or that life would or might be taken in accomplishing the underlying felony." John Lyons and his family stopped to help, and were taken by gunpoint into the desert. He performed the crucial role of flagging down a passing car occupied by an innocent family whose fate was then entrusted to the known killers he had previously armed. 19, 371 N.E.2d 1072 (1977). The Court's decision today to approve the death penalty for accomplices who lack this mental state is inconsistent with Enmund and with the only justifications this Court has put forth for imposing the death penalty in any case. The Tisons got into the Mazda and drove away, continuing their flight. In this case, the State appears to have afforded petitioners all of the procedures that this Court has deemed sufficient to produce constitutional sentencing decisions. It found that though Ricky Tison had not said that he would have been willing to kill, he "could anticipate the use of lethal force during this attempt to flee confinement." Randy Greenawalt was also tried and convicted for the escape and following murders. . On the other hand, it is equally clear that petitioners also fall outside the category of felony murderers for whom Enmund explicitly held the death penalty disproportional: their degree of participation in the crimes was major rather than minor, and the record would support a finding of the culpable mental state of reckless indifference to human life. As they ran the second roadblock, police fired killing Donny, the van off the road. 793 (1910) (quoting O'Neil v. Vermont, 144 U.S. 323, 339-340, 12 S.Ct.

Petitioners' presence at the scene of the murders, and their participation in flagging down the vehicle, and robbing and guarding the family, indicate nothing whatsoever about their subjective appreciation that their father and his friend would suddenly decide to kill the family. Wanton killings are generally regarded as among the most wicked, and the feature that makes a killing wanton is precisely the absence of detached reflection before the deed. 1987). After a 30 minute gunbattle with police, Randy, boys, Ricky and Raymond, were captured. The victims could easily have been restrained sufficiently to permit the defendants to travel a long distance before the robberies, the kidnappings, and the theft were reported." Reckless disregard for human life also represents a highly culpable mental state that may support a capital sentencing judgment in combination with major participation in the felony resulting in death. In 1978, Tison and Greenawaltwere awarded for their good behavior, and transferred into the trustee unit. Enmund also clearly dealt with the other polar case: the felony murderer who actually killed, attempted to kill, or intended to kill. G.

Bullock, supra, 474 U.S., at 386, 106 S.Ct., at 697. The urge to employ the felony-murder doctrine against accomplices is undoubtedly strong when the killings stir public passion and the actual murderer is beyond human grasp. Ricky Tison reported that John Lyons begged, in comments "more or less directed at everybody," "Jesus, don't kill me." At one pole was Enmund himself: the minor actor in an armed robbery, not on the scene, who neither intended to kill nor was found to have had any culpable mental state. Donald Tison was killed. Greenawalt was serving a life sentence for murdering a truck driver in Flagstaff in 1974. On July 30, 1978, the three Tison brothers entered the Arizona State Prison at Florence carrying a large ice chest filled with guns.

Raymond did so, and, while the others guarded the Lyons and Theresa Tyson, Gary fired his shotgun into the radiator, presumably to completely disable the vehicle. The trial court found that the murders their father later committed were senseless and unnecessary to the felony of stealing a car in which the sons participated; and just prior to the shootings the sons were retrieving a water jug for the family. Rev. . See Godfrey v. Georgia, 446 U.S. 420, 100 S.Ct. However, the State Supreme Court determined that they should be executed, holding that Enmund requires a finding of "intent to kill," and interpreting that phrase to include situations in which the defendant intended, contemplated, or anticipated that lethal force would or might be used, or that life would or might be taken in accomplishing the underlying felony. The proceedings below illustrate how, under the felony-murder doctrine, a defendant may be held liable and sentenced to death for a murder that he or she neither committed nor intended to commit. The discrepancy between those aspects of the record on which the Court has chosen to focus and those aspects it has chosen to ignore underscores the point that a reliable and individualized Enmund determination can be made only by the trial court following an evidentiary hearing. The Arizona Supreme Court then held, by a vote of 3-2, that this finding was sufficient to establish that petitioners "intended" (within the meaning of Enmund ) to kill the Lyons family, and affirmed the death sentences. On July 30, 1978, his sons Ricky, Raymond Ray, and Donald Donny smuggled shotguns into the prison and helped Gary. . Thus the goal of deterrence is no more served in this case than it was in Enmund. 447-448 (1978) ("[I]n the common law, intentional killing is not the only basis for establishing the most egregious form of criminal homicide. . This case thus illustrates the enduring truth of Justice Harlan's observation that the tasks of identifying "those characteristics of criminal homicides and their perpetrators which call for the death penalty, and [of] express[ing] these characteristics in language which can be fairly understood and applied by the sentencing authority appear to be . E.g., Clark v. Louisiana State Penitentiary, 694 F.2d 75 (CA5 1982) (under Louisiana law, jury must find specific intent to kill); People v. Garcia, 36 Cal.3d 539, 205 Cal.Rptr. Ark.Stat.Ann. The Enmund Court was unconvinced "that the threat that the death penalty will be imposed for murder will measurably deter one who does not kill and has no intention or purpose that life will be taken." 85-6272; Ruffin v. State, 420 So.2d 591, 594 (Fla.1982) (defendant present, assisted codefendant in kidnaping, raped victim, made no effort to interfere with codefendant's killing victim and continued on the joint venture); People v. Davis, 95 Ill.2d 1, 52, 69 Ill.Dec. Smuggling in a cooler full of guns, the Tisons helped Gary and his cellmate Randy escape. After the decision of the Arizona Supreme Court, this Court addressed, in Enmund v. Florida, 458 U.S. 782, 102 S.Ct. The Arizona Supreme Court, however, upheld the "pecuniary gain" and "heinousness" aggravating circumstances and the death sentences. And an intuition that sons and daughters must sometimes be punished for the sins of the father may be deeply rooted in our consciousness.20 Yet punishment that conforms more closely to such retributive instincts than to the Eighth Amendment is tragicly anachronistic in a society governed by our Constitution. In my view, this rejection completes the analytic work necessary to decide this case, and on this basis petitioners' sentences should have been vacated and the judgment reversed. Tisons terrorized state 25 years ago Citizen file photos Although the Court suggests otherwise, ante, at 155 156, n. 11, in none of these cases does the Arizona Supreme Court's finding of intent appear to rest, as it did here, on a finding that a killing was merely foreseeable. So rarely does any State (let alone any Western country other than our own) ever execute a person who neither killed nor intended to kill that "these death sentences are cruel and unusual in the same way that being struck by lightning is cruel and unusual."

"Enmund did not kill or intend to kill and thus his culpability is plainly different from that of the robbers who killed; yet the State treated them alike and attributed to Enmund the culpability of those who killed the Kerseys.

The Court found that of all executions between 1954 and 1982, there were "only 6 cases out of 362 where a nontriggerman felony murderer was executed. Id., at 80. For example, we do not doubt that there are some felonies as to which one could properly conclude that any major participant necessarily exhibits reckless indifference to the value of human life. Thus, in Enmund the Court established that a finding of an intent to kill was a constitutional prerequisite for the imposition of the death penalty on an accomplice who did not kill. The Arizona Supreme Court did not attempt to argue that the facts of this case supported an inference of "intent" in the traditional sense. Enmund v. State, 399 So.2d 1362, 1369 (1981). It found that neither the deterrent nor the retributive purposes of the death penalty were advanced by imposing the death penalty upon Enmund. In 1992 their death sentences were overturned by the Arizona Supreme Court. Neither stated that they anticipated that the shootings would occur, or that they could have done anything to prevent them or to help the victims afterward.6 Both, however, expressed feelings of surprise, helplessness, and regret.

Justice WHITE stressed the importance of this distinction in Lockett v. Ohio, 438 U.S. 586, 98 S.Ct. But on July 30 they changed their attitude when Tisons three sons, Donald age 20, Ricky, 19, and Raymond 18 came to visit. In reaching this conclusion, the Court relied upon the fact that killing only rarely occurred during the course of robberies, and such killing as did occur even more rarely resulted in death sentences if the evidence did not support an inference that the defendant intended to kill. Had it done so, it would have discovered that, even including the 65 executions since Enmund, "[t]he fact remains that we are not aware of a single person convicted of felony murder over the past quarter century who did not kill or attempt to kill, and did not intend the death of the victim, who has been executed.

The persistence of doctrines (such as felony murder) that allow excessive discretion in apportioning criminal culpability and of decisions (such as today's) that do not even attempt "precisely [to] delineate the particular types of conduct and states of mind warranting imposition of the death penalty," ante, at 158, demonstrates that this Court has still not articulated rules that will ensure that capital sentencing decisions conform to the substantive principles of the Eighth Amendment. A massive manhunt in Arizona ended on Aug. 11, 1978, when the gang ran a police road block near Casa Grande. Study Resources. The Court's second reason for abandoning the intent requirement is based on its survey of state statutes authorizing the death penalty for felony murder, and on a handful of state cases.12 On this basis, the Court concludes that "[o]nly a small minority of those jurisdictions imposing capital punishment for felony murder have rejected the possibility of a capital sentence absent an intent to kill, and we do not find this minority position constitutionally required."
