President Joe Biden left three inmates on federal death row despite saying that the country must cease all executions.
On Monday, Biden announced the commutation of 37 out of 40 inmates on federal death row, with less than a month left in office. The three left on death row were those responsible for massacres: Dylann Roof, 30, murdered nine black parishioners in Charleston in 2015; Robert Bowers, 52, murdered 11 Jewish congregants at the Tree of Life Synagogue; and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 31, is one of the brothers behind the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing that killed three and injured hundreds more.
