- The Free Speech Coalition and others opposed that the “appears to be” and "conveys the impression" provisions are overbroad and vague and restrain the works otherwise protected by the first amendment
The question:
- Does the Child Pornography Prevention Act of 1996 abridge freedom of speech when it proscribes a significant universe of speech that is neither obscene under Miller v. California nor child pornography under New York v. Ferber?
The conclusion:
- Yes it does abridge freedom of speech
- A 6-3 decision with majority opinion by Justice Anthony M. Kennedy
- Agreed: Justice John Paul Stevens, Justice Anthony M. Kennedy, Justice David Hackett Souter, Justice Clarence Thomas, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and Justice Stephen Gerald Breyer

Baxstrom v. Herold
364
587 U.S. ____ (2019)
Facts of the case:
Bucklew was convicted in Missouri and sentenced to death. He filed a federal appeal claiming that lethal injection would constitute cruel and unusual punishment under the eighth amendment because he had a rare congenital medical condition that increased the possibility of him choking on his own blood and suffering during the execution. He further alleged that the employees administering the lethal injection were not qualified to do so and requested an investigation.
Questions:
1. Does the eighth amendment require an inmate to provide an adequate alternative method of execution when raising an as applied challenge to the state execution method?
2. What evidence is required for a court to determine if the alternative method would reduce suffering compared to the state’s method?
3. May a court assume that medical personnel on staff are competent to evaluate and manage an inmate’s medical condition during execution?
4. Did the petitioner meet his burden of proof in proposing an alternative execution method?
Conclusion:
Bucklew did not meet the burden of proof required by the Supreme Court
5-4 decision against Bucklew
Majority agreement: Justice John Roberts Glover, Jr., Justice Clarence Thomas, Justice Samuel Anthony Alito, Jr., Justice Neil McGill Gorsuch, and Justice Brett Michael Kavanaugh
Minority Disagreement: Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Justice Stephen Gerald Breyer, Justice Sonia Maria Sotomayor, and Justice Elena Kagan
- The court found that Bucklew did not meet the burden of proof for an alternative method that would decrease the suffering during execution and did not offer an alternative that could be administered swiftly, they further laminated that the appeal was filed at the last minute before the execution date, in essence, assuming that Bucklew was using this appeal to delay execution.
- Justice Clarence Thomas noted that an execution only violates the eighth amendment if it is DELIBERATELY designed to inflict pain
- A dissent was written by all opposing Justices of the court in which they expressed concern about the lamination of the agreeing Justices and how it affected their decision as well as stating that Bucklew met the burden of proof that lethal injection would cost unnecessary suffering and expressing that unfair burden was placed on the inmate to provide an alternative method in detail
