WASHINGTON, D.C. — US President Joe Biden on Monday commuted the death sentences of 37 of the 40 inmates on federal death row, ahead of the return to power of Donald Trump, who has indicated that he would restart federal executions.
Three men were excluded from the move: one of the 2013 Boston Marathon bombers, a gunman who murdered 11 Jewish worshippers in 2018 and a white supremacist who killed nine Black churchgoers in 2015.
