Explain the facts of the case in detail and the court proceedings.

Question

1- Chapters 9, 10, and 11 in our Mallicoat textbook address the typical and not-so-typical offenses committed by women. Chapter 9, more specifically, begins to look at the sentencing and processing of women through our criminal justice system. For the purpose of this assignment, we will take a look at those women who have been sentenced to death. Women are rarely sentenced to death in the United States and executions of women are even rarer. Researchers have suggested that women who are sentenced to death are often perceived as breaking gender norms.
