他还开玩笑称,华盛顿是“死刑首都”。特朗普强调,华盛顿已经连续四周没有出现死亡案件,“从全美最危险的城市变成最安全的城市”。
美国司法部长邦迪表示,她希望死刑可以推行至全国范围。邦迪还补充说,美国前总统拜登赦免的犯人已被转移至最高安全级别监狱,他们会“像在死囚牢房里一样度过余生”。His memo seeks to bring back a punishment form not used in the nation's capital in decades, pushing U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi and U.S. Attorney for D.C. Jeanine Pirro to seek the sentencing in cases deemed appropriate under federal law. https://t.co/gAj083UlJ4

据报,恢复死刑的措施由美国国会直接管辖的哥伦比亚特区提出,此举进一步加强了特朗普政府对华盛顿的管控。
