Arnold Holloway was convicted of first-degree murder and sentenced to death. During the voir dire for the case, the prosecutor used 12 peremptory strikes, 11 of which were used to remove AfricanAmericans.
Holloway, an African-American, challenged the prosecutor's use of the peremptory challenges as being purposeful discrimination on the basis of race.
Did the court of appeals overturn Holloway's conviction? Why or why not? Holloway v. Horn, 355 F.3d 707 (3d Cir. 2004).
