Legislation that could impose a new moratorium on the death penalty in Maryland narrowly passed a procedural hurdle in the state Senate, but the legislation appears to be doomed when it reaches a final vote in the chamber.
In Annapolis, the Senate voted 24-to-23 to accept the favorable report on the proposal from the Judicial Proceedings Committee.
Although Senate President Mike Miller voted to accept the report, he says he will vote against the moratorium itself.
