Description

2025 sees a surge in executions in the US, with 47 men put to death, the highest in 16 years. President Trumps executive order and states like Florida, Alabama, and Texas drive this increase. Despite waning public support, with 52% favoring the death penalty, a 50-year low, the Supreme Courts denial of last-minute stay requests and states use of new methods like nitrogen gas and firing squads mark a shift towards more extreme capital punishment.
