The jury has to agree on mitigating factors-like his mental state-remember shrink testifying Hayes was supposedly in a rage-if the jury believes he was in a rage that's a mitigating factor. And as I understand it, if they find there are mitigating factors, Hayes is not getting the death penalty.
I wonder if this is specific to CT since I haven't heard anything like that before.
I have heard of it but don't know if it is State specific. It must be. I don't think it would be fair if that was a factor though but who am I...?
