On December 10, Brandon Bernard became the ninth person executed by the US Federal Government in 2020. Bernard’s death is the latest in a spree of executions carried out by the Trump administration, with this year marking the first time in 17 years that federal executions have been carried out at all.
Trump has scheduled several more between now and January, making him the first president since Grover Cleveland to carry out executions during the time between an election and leaving office. If all scheduled executions occur, the Trump administration will have carried out 13 in total. According to the
Los Angeles Times, such a move would “cement Trump’s legacy as the most prolific execution president in more than 130 years.”
