    COMMONWEALTH of Pennsylvania, Respondent v. Javonn Eric CLANCY, Petitioner
    No. 119 WAL 2017
    Supreme Court of Pennsylvania.
    September 11, 2017
   ORDER

PER CURIAM

AND NOW, this 11th day of September, 2017, the Petition for Allowance of Appeal is GRANTED. The issues, rephrased for clarity, are:

(1) Where, in closing argument, the district attorney characterized the Petitioner as a “cold blooded killer” and a “dangerous man,” did the district attorney violate the ruling of this Court announced in Commonwealth v. Capalla, 185 A. 203, 205 (Pa. 1936)?
(2) Were the district attorney’s characterizations of the Petitioner during closing argument permissible oratorical emphasis consistent with Pennsylvania Rules of Professional Conduct 3.4(c) and ABA Standards for Criminal Justice 3-5.8?
