The Ministry of Justice will achieve the expansion of the death penalty throughout the country, and not just the capital, the prosecutor said.
U.S. president Donald Trump on September 25, 2025 signed a command confirming the death penalty application for serious crimes in Washington. The document signing took place in the White House, and the order itself was immediately published on the official website of the administration.
In the past, Trump actively promoted the idea of restoring the death penalty to capital, which focus on the powerful effects of avoidance. The President emphasized that such a policy could prevent potential criminals, as the death penalty “works as a powerful warning tool.”
“The restoration of the death penalty is a priority for my administration from its first working day in accordance with Decree 14164 of January 20, 2025 (restoring death penalty and public security protection),” the command said.
US prosecutor Pamela Bondy, who commented on this question for Fox News the day before, was revealed in a category against the removal of death penalties. In particular, he critically acted on the actions of previous President Joe Biden, who forgave 37 prisoners. Some of these were moved to a maximum security level in Colorado.
After signing the order, Bondi said the Ministry of Justice would seek to expand the application of the death penalty nationwide, and not just in Washington.
This is not the first time Trump has begun the return of the death penalty to practice. On the day of the inauguration, he signed a command that forced the prosecutor to provide states of necessary drugs to carry out death penalties and use federal jurisdiction to use this type of penalty, especially related to people who were illegal in the country or involved in the killings of law enforcement officials.
