Florida`s death row is about to get a lot more crowded. DeSantis signs law eliminating need for unanimous jury decisions

It just got a lot easier to send a convicted killer to death row in Florida. Gov. Ron DeSantis signed a death penalty reform law Thursday that allows judges to impose capital punishment as long as eight out of 12 jurors recommend it. Before the new law was passed, juries had to be unanimous in their recommendations, allowing a single juror to derail the state`s efforts to obtain a death sentence.
