Lugo v. State

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• holding that where the evidence substantially proved the defendant was deceitful, remarks challenging the veracity of the defendant were proper comments on the evidence
• rejecting as meritless the argument that Florida’s capital sentencing scheme “fails to limit the class of persons eligible for the death penalty”
• addressing relative - 11 - culpability claim under the “Proportionality” heading and as part of traditional comparative proportionality review
• “[W]e cannot say . . . the prosecution’s comments drifted so far afield from the evidence adduced at trial as to constitute fundamental error.”
