Prosecutors can't seek death in WA family killings
The Seattle Times reports (http://is.gd/LZ05X5 ) that Superior Court Judge Jeffrey Ramsdell ruled Thursday that the King County prosecutor's office made a mistake in considering the strength of its evidence in deciding to seek the death penalty against Michele Anderson and Joseph McEnroe.
The judge says the strength of the evidence can't be applied to a death penalty decision because that violates equal protection provisions.
