i don't understand what the problem is. if the crime was heinous enough and the evidence solid enough to result in a conviction and a death sentence, why does it matter if the criminal is 18 years and 1 day old vs 17 years and 11 months old. same crime should generally equal same punishment (all other things being equal)

edit: on what constitutional grounds was this case argued?
