Fox News
Ketanji Brown Jackson, the newest Supreme Court justice, supported an Ohio death row inmate in her first opinion. She says she would have ordered a new look at the man's case.
Jackson, in a two-page opinion, wrote that she would have ordered a new look at Chinn's case "because his life is on the line and given the substantial likelihood that the suppressed records would have changed the outcome at trial."
The evidence at issue indicated that a key witness against Chinn has an intellectual disability that might have affected his memory and ability to testify accurately, she wrote.
