The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on Wednesday heard oral arguments once again on the conviction of Texas death row inmate Brittany Holberg, which was previously overturned by justices in March.
All 17 of the court’s judges listened to arguments and questioned attorneys for both Holberg and the state as they weighed the appeal. Much of the discussion and questions from the judges revolved around Vickie Kirkpatrick, who was Holberg’s cellmate before her trial.
