Federal executions surge as Trump plans five before Biden
The Trump administration moves to execute five inmates in the coming weeks amid a pandemic surge in prisons, aiming to end a 17 year pause and leave a record as the most prolific U.S. federal execution president in over a century. Biden attacks the policy but faces limits while Barr defends continuation. The plan includes Black inmates and Lisa Montgomery, the only woman on death row, with executions by lethal injection at Terre Haute and potential use of firing squad or gas.
