Description
President Joe Biden has commuted the death penalty sentences for all but three federal death row inmates. 37 of the 40 people held on federal death row will now serve life in prison, without the chance for parole.
The move spares the lives of people convicted in killings, including the slayings of police and military officers, people on federal land and those involved in deadly bank robberies or drug deals, as well as the killings of guards or prisoners in federal facilities.
