Michael Berrigan, a former military lawyer for former Army Private Ronald Gray, now says he was not experienced enough to appeal Gray's death sentence in 1989. Federal defenders have since appealed, saying they have found new evidence that should have been presented by Gray's trial lawyers and might have saved him from death row. Gray, who raped and murdered two women, is the first military convict to be approved for the death penalty by a president since Eisenhower. President George W. Bush approved the execution before leaving office. (Olivier Douliery/Abaca Press/MCT)
