AG Bill Barr orders execution dates for 5 on Federal Death Row.

July 25, 2019 by Mark Elliott

Despite dramatic declines nationwide in use of the death penalty and continued exonerations of innocent people on our state death rows (166 so far, 29 in FL) U.S. Attorney General William Barr has been ordered to restart federal executions. The last federal execution was in 2003. Five executions will begin on Dec. 9th. The Justice department says more executions are coming. Read more here.

Take Action! Email President Trump or Call President Trump: Comments 202-456-1111. 9am-4pm ET.

Fast Facts:
Federal Execution Dates: Daniel Lee – Dec. 9, Lezmond Mitchell – Dec. 11, Wesley Purkey – Dec. 13, Alfred Bourgeois – Jan. 13, Dustin Honkin – Jan. 15.

62 people on Federal Death Row. Only one convicted of treason, espionage, or terrorism.

Death Row and Death Chamber: U.S. Penitentiary, Terre Haute, IN.

Florida Execution Date: Gary Bowles – Aug. 22. Please Take Action! Please contact FL Gov. Ron DeSantis NOW and urge him to halt the execution of Gary Bowles and Sign No More Death Warrants.
