 For example, "Knighton vs Maggio", "Witherspoon vs. Illinois", and "Woodward vs. Hutchins" were cases in which all the defendants claimed their Sixth and Fourteenth Amendment rights were violated and all of their appeals were denied as well.What made the "Witt vs. Wainwright" case so significant was the fact that the court did find that the prosecutor, during one of the exchanges over "voir dire", did not properly excuse one of the jurors for the “Witherspoon claim.” The juror, named Ms.Colby, stated that during the voir dire process, she thought that her judging of innocence or guilt may be affected due to the death penalty.She didn’t say, however, that she would automatically vote not guilty.
