The Supreme Court rules 6-3 against two men on Arizona's death row who say they received ineffective assistance of counsel in state court. SCOTUS says that federal courts reviewing their cases can't hold evidentiary hearings to fully assess their ineffective-counsel claims.

The Supreme Court adds no new cases to its docket in this morning's order list. Stephen Breyer writes a brief statement regarding the court's denial of review in a capital case; he reiterates his doubts about the constitutionality of the death penalty. https://www.supremecourt.gov/orders/courtorders/052322zor_p86a.pdf
