FROM FOX NEWS: Two federal inmates previously on death row, one a crooked New Orleans cop and the other the man behind a multi-state killing spree, have been transferred to a notorious “supermax” prison in Colorado, the Justice Department told Fox News Digital.
They are among the 37 death row inmates whose sentences Biden commuted shortly before leaving office last December. The news prompted criticism and complaints that the record clemency and commutation actions were done as a political “Hail Mary,” and without proper vetting.
Eight death row inmates have already been transferred to ADX, the Justice Department told Fox News Digital, bringing to 10 the number of death row inmates that have been transferred to the facility since mid-September.
The former death row inmates were transferred Thursday to the U.S. Penitentiary Administrative Maximum Facility in Florence, Colorado, also known as “ADX,” Justice Department officials confirmed.
The report notes that U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi is looking to “crack down on the previous administration’s sweeping clemency actions, especially those against violent crime.”
“Two more monsters who plotted and violently murdered innocent people will spend the rest of their lives in our country’s most severe federal prison,” Bondi told Fox News Digital in a statement. “This Department of Justice will continue to seek accountability for the families blindsided by President Biden’s reckless commutations of 37 vicious predators.”
Although sentence commutations cannot be fully reversed, Bondi is prioritizing measures, in line with President Trump’s directives, to impose penalties on the affected individuals. This includes ensuring their conditions of confinement reflect the serious security risks posed by their egregious crimes, criminal histories, and other relevant factors, as outlined in a prior DOJ memo.
