Florida to execute revenge killer in 26th US death penalty case this year ...Middle East

Michael Bell will receive a lethal injection at 6:00 pm (2200 GMT) at Florida State Prison in Raiford for the murders of Jimmy West, 23, and Tamecka Smith, 18.

Bell was convicted in 1995 for shooting West and Smith outside a Jacksonville liquor store. Court records reveal he sought revenge for the killing of his brother, Lamar Bell, months earlier by West’s half-brother, Theodore Wright.

This year, 20 executions in the US have been conducted via lethal injection, two by firing squad, and three by nitrogen hypoxia—a method involving nitrogen gas inhalation that has been condemned by UN experts as cruel and inhumane.

The death penalty remains legal in 27 US states, while 23 have abolished it. California, Oregon, and Pennsylvania currently enforce moratoriums. Former President Donald Trump has advocated for expanding capital punishment for severe crimes. - AFP
