BREYER, J., dissenting

Oklahoma, 487 U. S. 815, 833, n. 40 (1988) (plurality opinion). For the reasons I have set forth in this opinion, I believe it highly likely that the death penalty violates the Eighth Amendment. At the very least, the Court should call for full briefing on the basic question. With respect, I dissent.
