Biden Commutes 37 Death Sentences, Says 'We Must Stop' Federal Executions
Dec 23, 2024, 12:37 PM
President Joe Biden has commuted the sentences of 37 of the 40 federal death row inmates, converting their punishments to life imprisonment without the possibility of parole. Biden stated, 'We must stop the use of the death penalty at the federal level.' The decision comes just weeks before President-elect Donald Trump takes office, an outspoken proponent of capital punishment who has pledged to resume federal executions halted under the Biden administration. The three inmates who remain on death row are Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, Robert Bowers, and Dylann Roof.
