From appearances, I’d say it was demonstrably petty, not to mention cruel and unusual punishment to open up such a small sliver of hope for the family after rejecting their previous petitions. All they had to do was reject the petition. It seems like they could learn a thing or two from the SCOTUS on the matter of letting sleeping dogs lie. As it is, they open themselves up for further disdain from the other two branches of government. Smart move, that.
