Trump Administration Proposes Lethal Injection And Firing Squads
The US is evaluating new methods for capital punishment, including the potential use of firing squads and gas execution. These options follow the recent implementation of gas execution in Alabama. The review includes a re-adaptation of the 2021 lethal injection protocol. State prison offices have been instructed to modify protocols to integrate these legally permitted methods. The Justice Department plans to streamline internal processes to expedite death penalty cases. According to a Justice Department news release, these measures aim to deter barbaric crimes and provide closure to victims' survivors. This move comes as California maintains its suspension of the death penalty.
