The United States Attorney General, Pam Bondi, is looking to reverse the last minute commutations For death murderers last month by former President Joe Biden, ordering state officials to pursue the death penalty against inmates.
Bondi, who was confirmed on Wednesday, sent a letter about switching to employees of the Department of Justice (DOJ) on Wednesday, accusing Biden of “relax (ING) our justice system and subvert (ING) the rule of law” when granting switches.
“The switches also stole the families of the victims of the promised justice, and fought for the Department of Justice,” Bondi wrote. “It is addressed to the Department of Justice to immediately begin the following actions to achieve justice for the families of the victims of the 37 commuted murderers.”
Bondi said the Department of Justice will move to “explore opportunities to provide a public forum so that the families of the victims express how switches personally affected them,” calling it an “important step” to generate trust and achieve responsibility.

Then, Bondi said he would order the offices of the United States prosecutor who pursue death sentences against switched inmates using state law instead of the Federal Law. She said that this step would be carried out “after consulting with the families of the victims and other interested parties” and only “when it is appropriate and legally permissible.”
“The CASE capital section will help the offices of the United States prosecutor to implement this directive,” said Bondi’s letter.

“Thirdly, the Federal Prison Office is aimed at ensuring that the conditions of confinement for each of the 37 switched murderers are consistent with the security risks that the inmates present due to their atrocious crimes, criminal stories and all the others Relevant considerations, “added.
In a decision from the end of December, Biden eliminated 37 inmates From the Federal Death Corridor and reclassified their sentences to life without the possibility of probation.
At that time, the White House said the measure would avoid Donald Trump’s Administration of “carrying out the execution sentences that would not be transmitted under current politics and practice.”

“The president’s criminal justice history has transformed individual lives and positively impacted communities, especially historically marginalized communities,” said the White House statement at that time. “In the coming weeks, the president will take additional measures to provide second significant opportunities and continue to review indons and additional switches.”
Biden only left three mass murderers in the death corridor: Charleston, South Carolina, the Dylann Roof church shooter; Boston Marathon Bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev; and Robert Bowers, the gunman responsible for the Synagogue of the Pittsburgh Life Tree in 2018.
Bondi, a former prosecutor and attorney general of the State of Florida, said previously that his main objective as AG is to eliminate the political influence and weapon of the Department of Justice.
“The United States will have a level of justice for all,” he said at that time.
