American leader Donald Trump has signed a decree on the use of the death penalty in Washington. This was announced on September 25 by U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi.
It is specified that this measure will be introduced in the territory of the District of Columbia, which is not a US state.
"We're doing this not only in Washington, but all over the country," Bondi said.
According to her, they are transferring prisoners who were on death row and whose sentences were commuted by former US President Joe Biden to high-security prisons.
On January 20, a message appeared on the White House website that Trump had signed a decree on the return of the death penalty at the federal level. According to him, laws allowing the death penalty must be respected and applied in good faith.
