New Hampshire Supreme Court rejects Addison death sentence review
Original: NH Supreme Court rejects Addison bid for new review of death sentence
The New Hampshire Supreme Court has rejected Michael Addison's request for a new review of his death sentence. Addison, convicted in the 2006 fatal shooting of Manchester police officer Michael Briggs, remains the only person on death row in New Hampshire, which abolished the death penalty in 2019 but did not apply that retroactively to his case.
Why now: Addison is the state's only death row inmate, so any court ruling on his sentence draws attention amid ongoing debate over New Hampshire's abolished but not retroactive death penalty.
