The Execution of Dustin Higgs and the Tradition of Capital Punishment Comments
Dustin Higgs, an African American man from Poughkeepsie, New York, became the thirteenth federal inmate to meet his end at the hands of the state in the span of one year since Trump’s Department of Justice directed the Federal Bureau of Prisons to resume federal executions in the summer of 2019.
The 48-year old father of one was pronounced dead at 1:23 am on Saturday, January 16 from lethal injection. A petition for clemency was signed by nearly 2 million people and Higgs’ lawyers argued that “there [was] no principled basis [on which] to execute” their client, given that another man is already serving a life sentence for the triple homicide for which he was convicted.

The rise is driven by emissions from fossil fuel burning and deforestation, but will be slightly smaller than usual due to a temporary strengthening of natural carbon sinks, said the British national weather service in the forecast released Friday.
Weather patterns linked to the current La Nina event are expected to promote a temporary burst of growth in tropical forests that soak up some of humanity s emissions, it said.
