Intellectual disability claim
In recent years, Black’s legal team unsuccessfully tried to have a new hearing on whether he was intellectually disabled and disqualified to death sentence under the US Supreme Court’s example.
His lawyers said that if he was delayed in a prior attempt in search of his intellectual disability claim, he must have been spared under the State Act of 2021.
Last month, black lawyer Sent a letter For the Governor of Tennessee, asked them to give black pardon and sentence them to life in jail.
“Sri Black, who lives with an intellectual disability, has been on a line for 25 years,” read in the letter. “From infancy, he was suffering from the effects of prenatal alcohol exposure, resulting in fetal alcohol syndrome. As a child, he was in contact with toxic leadership, causing his lifelong cognitive and developmental loss.”
Nashville District Attorney Glenn Funk said in 2022 that Black is intellectually disabled and is entitled to hearing under that 2021 law, but the judge denied it. This is because the 2021 law refuses to hear people on the line of death, who has already filed a uniform request and a court has ruled on it “merit”.
In the attempt of Funk, he focused on an input from an expert to the state in 2004, who determined that Black was called “mental retardation”. But he concluded that Black fulfilled the norms of new law to diagnose intellectual disability.
Black demanded a determination by the courts that it was unable to execute.
