Former President Joe Biden commuted the sentences of several
death row killers at the last minute before leaving office.
Now, U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi wants to reverse those
decisions and tell state officials to seek the death penalty for inmates.
Bondi wrote a letter to Department of Justice (DOJ)
employees on Wednesday about the transfers. In the letter, he said Biden's
decision to grant the commutations "undermined our justice system and
subverted the rule of law."
“The commutations also deprived victims' families of the justice
promised (and fought hard to achieve) by the Department of Justice,” Bondi
wrote. “The Department of Justice is directed to immediately initiate the
following actions to achieve justice for the families of the victims of the 37
commuted murderers.”
