Alabama Governor Kay Ivey commutes death sentence of 75-year-old inmate Charles Sonny Burton to life without parole, citing fairness. Burton, convicted for a 1991 murder, was not the triggerman but planned the crime. Attorney General Steve Marshall criticizes the move, arguing for accomplice liability. Burtons sentence now matches that of the actual shooter, Derrick DeBruce, fueling the debate over capital punishment fairness in the state.
