The death penalty returns to the United States

The Attorney General of the United States, William Barr, ordered the Bureau of Prisons to apply the death sentence for lethal injection of pentobarbital to five prisoners convicted of murder. The last execution under this system took place in 2003.

Barr explained that the implementation of this sentence: "This will do justice to the victims of the most horrific crimes" and added: "Some convicts tortured and raped children and elderly people"
