一位联邦法官裁定,南卡罗来纳州州长亨利·麦克马斯特有权决定对Richard Moore的宽大处理。 Richard Moore是定于11月1日处决的死囚。 A federal judge ruled that South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster has the authority to decide on clemency for Richard Moore, a death row inmate scheduled for execution on November 1. Moore被判在1999年抢劫期间犯有谋杀罪,要求国家假释委员会审查他的宽大处理申请,理由是McMaster的潜在偏见。 Moore, convicted of murder during a 1999 robbery, sought to have his clemency application reviewed by the state parole board instead, citing McMaster's potential bias. 如果裁决没有被推翻,他的律师计划提出上诉。 His attorneys plan to appeal if the ruling is not overturned.
