Turner v. Crosby
Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit

1Opinion of the Court
HULL, Circuit Judge:
William Thaddeus Turner appeals the district court’s denial of his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 petition challenging his death sentence. Turner argues that his attorneys rendered ineffective assistance of counsel by failing to introduce certain mitigating evidence during the penalty phase of his trial and that his death sentence violates his constitutional right to a jury trial as established in Ring v. Arizona, 536 U.S. 584, 122 S.Ct. 2428, 153 L.Ed.2d 556 (2002). After review and oral argument, we affirm Turner’s sentence.
