Trump Criticizes Biden for Commuting Death Sentences of 37 on Federal Death Row to Life Imprisonment
Dec 24, 2024, 02:12 PM
Former President Donald Trump has criticized President Joe Biden for commuting the death sentences of 37 out of the 40 convicted killers on federal death row to life imprisonment without parole. Trump expressed his disbelief and frustration over the decision on his social media platform, Truth Social, stating that the actions of these individuals were so heinous that the commutation made no sense. Biden's decision, announced just before the transition of power back to Trump, has been described as the largest number of death sentence commutations by a U.S. president in modern times, aligning with Biden's stance against the death penalty at the federal level.
