Un bărbat de 77 de ani, condamnat la moarte a fost executat prin injecție letală în Florida. Este cea de-a 18-a execuție din acest an

Florida executed its 18th inmate of the year, William Reaves, aged 77, highlighting the state's aggressive use of the death penalty under Governor Ron DeSantis. Reaves was convicted for the 1986 murder of a police officer and was the eighth inmate over 70 executed this year. Florida continues to lead the nation in executions, having set a state record of 19 last year. The Florida Supreme Court recently denied Reaves' appeals, and concerns were raised about the state's lethal injection protocol, which involves three drugs. This method contrasts with the single-drug execution used in some other states.
