Just a warning, this podcast contains graphic details of violence and sexual abuse that some listeners may find distressing. The Trump administration has carried out the most federal executions for 130 years. After a 17-year hiatus, the president had them resumed in July 2020. Since then, the US government has applied the death penalty to 10 people. On Tuesday 12 January, the only woman on federal death row, Lisa Montgomery, is scheduled to be killed by lethal injection. If this goes ahead, she will be the first woman to be put to death by the federal government in 70 years. In this episode of the Sky News Daily podcast, host Noel Phillips is joined by members of Lisa Montgomery's legal campaign. To explain why the president is pursuing these federal executions, he talks to Sandra Babcock, who is clinical professor at Cornell Law School and the faculty director of the Cornell Center on the Death Penalty Worldwide, along with Leigh Goodmark, professor of law and director of the Gender Violence Clinic at the University of Maryland, and J.D. Gordon, a former senior policy adviser to Donald Trump.
