      Much as I hate using the US map to depict state-level data, shading states by decade of last execution might help absorbing 50 pieces of information.

    2. TheUpcomingEmperor on

      I’ll add that this is referring to state level executions. Federal or military executions are not counted.

      Feels good to live in a state that’s been civilized since the 20th century.

      Idaho attempted one in 2024. It just didn’t work and the individual did not die.

      Michigan’s last *and only* execution as a state was actually in 1838, one year after its admittance to the union in 1837.

      What happened in Michigan, Wisconsin, Rhode Island, and Maine that made them stop executing people in the 19th century? That’s a lot earlier than most others that stopped.

      Personally I think we should execute far more.
      For repeat violent offenders, and repeat child molesters/rapists.

      Michigan! I know you’re pretty much Canada but I didn’t know you were that nice?!

      Not sure what the source of this is, but Tony Chebatoris was executed in Michigan in 1938

      Not gonna lie, West Virginia being that long ago is surprising.

      So, for practical purposes, only 17 states have active (<14 years since last execution) capital punishment programs. About 1/3 of the Union. Mostly red states.

      Hawaii’s last execution would’ve predated its statehood, notably.

      Texas and, increasingly, Florida just love executing people. Don’t even have to be guilty, really.

      Lol, the one thing the bible belt states are casually up to date on….

      This is super relevant since Marcellus Williams is sentenced for execution TOMORROW, Sept. 24th, 2024 despite DNA evidence that could prove his innocence. There was also lots of issues surrounding the handling of his case – including mishandling of evidence, racial bias in jury selection by removing black jurors, and the list goes on.

      Read more about him here: [https://innocenceproject.org/cases/marcellus-williams/](https://innocenceproject.org/cases/marcellus-williams/)

      Edit: Missouri Courts are refusing to postpone his execution despite nearly 620,000 signatures on the petition – defense lawyers demanding a halt, the victim’s own family is asking for the execution to not occur, etc. There is a solid case for his innocence. There are serious doubts as to the validity of his prosecution – and as of now, Missouri is still moving forward with the execution tomorrow. How does that make sense?

      Other countries that still use the death penalty:

      – Saudi Arabia
      – Yemen
      – Syria
      – Sudan
      – Afghanistan
      – North Korea
      – China
      – Egypt
      – Belarus
      – Iran
      – Iraq
      – Somalia

      … notice a pattern there?

    22. e_dan_k on

      Interesting that neither Alaska nor Hawaii had one since before statehood.

    23. Trackmaster15 on

      Is this including states where the crime was committed in that state, the physical execution happened there, but it circumvented state law by it being handled by the US Attorneys office in federal court?

      I’ve heard they’ve been doing that to get executions in blue states.

    24. Final_Location_2626 on

      Oh, this must be the post birth abortion trump was talking about…

      Sorry OP while I appreciate the info this data isn’t beautiful.  There has got to be some shading indicating some relative time period. This is a table in map form 

    27. EnvyWL on

      I’ve heard this argument before so I’d like to see someone else’s opinions.

      What would you say if everyone stopped the death penalty except for child sex offenders?

    28. TheRealDexity on

      Isn’t it curious that most of the states with the most current executions are also the states with no exception anti-abortion laws. I guess their compassion only goes so far.
