Death-row inmates may have an easier time getting religious accommodations at executions after the Supreme Court rejected Texas’ attempt to block a pastor from laying hands on and praying aloud for an inmate in the chamber. Ramirez v. Collier was an unusual case in a number of ways, including because the inmate won. John Ramirez’s lawyer Seth Kretzer joins Cases and Controversies to talk about his experience arguing the novel dispute on an expedited timeline. Hosts Kimberly Robinson and Jordan Rubin also break down the latest on Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson’s likely confirmation next week, as well as the most recent developments in the world of Justice Clarence Thomas.
