Trump Promises to Expand Federal Death Penalty for Human Traffickers, Child Rapists, and Illegal Immigrants
Nov 9, 2024, 04:27 PM
President-elect Donald Trump has pledged to expand the federal death penalty, targeting human traffickers, child rapists, and illegal immigrants who kill U.S. citizens. Throughout his campaign, Trump indicated a desire to resume federal executions, a stance that has raised concerns among anti-death penalty groups and criminal justice reform advocates. Legal experts warn that Trump could quickly reinstate execution protocols, reversing reforms implemented during President Biden's administration. In his first term, Trump ramped up federal executions and has suggested that he will continue this trend, potentially leading to legal challenges during his second term.
