The Ohio Supreme Court on Wednesday overturned the death sentence of a man convicted of murder after concluding that he was mentally retarded.
The court decided 7 to 0 to reverse a lower court ruling that the man, Clifton White, 35, formerly of Akron, was not mentally retarded despite the testimony of psychologists hired by the state and the defense team who said that their diagnosis of mental retardation was “not a close call.”

[…]

The lower court had ruled that Mr. White was not mentally retarded based partly on the testimony of Heather Kawczk, who said he worked, rented an apartment, bought a truck and helped her when she bought a car.

Ms. Kawczk said Mr. White could cook, drive, and play the video game “Mortal Kombat” well enough to win half the time.

The Supreme Court cited expert testimony in determining that such abilities did not rule out retardation.
