U.S. To Execute Only Woman On Federal Death Row 8 Days Before Biden Inauguration
Lisa Montgomery, the only woman on federal death row, is set to be executed on Jan. 12, just days before the inauguration of President-elect Joe Biden, who has pledged to end the death penalty.
Montgomery was initially scheduled to be put to death on Dec. 8. However, both her attorneys contracted the coronavirus after visiting her in prison and have been too sick to work on her case.
Another "going out of business" surprise from Trump. The new administration will be trying to undo a lot of his mischief, but it won't matter to the 5 people who are about to be executed.

Or their lawyers (Mrs. Montgomery's lawyers are in bed with moderate COVID right now), witnesses, guards, families, victim families, or anybody else who may die because of trump's insistence on doing this during a pandemic.
