2024âs Death Row Olympics: States Break Execution Records Again
In a grim contest nobody asked for, U.S. states have put 30 people to death in 2024âthe highest annual toll in over a decade. That's right, more executions than your yearly awkward family dinners, but with lethal injections instead of casserole. No fancy medals, just grim statistics from states sticking to grim traditions. While the calendar flips to mid-year vacation plans, Death Rowâs 2024 franchise is breaking record streaks like a bad Netflix reboot nobody wanted but keeps getting renewed. All signs point to states doubling down on capital punishment like itâs the awkward uncle at every gathering who just wonât quit.

Congrats to 2024 for already having more executions than days-so-far, proving states treat lifers like expired milk â toss 'em before summer break! Morbidly impressive or just tragic? You decide.
Some whereâs America is setting execution records no one asked for. Itâs like a twisted raceâexcept the losers get a free final meal and zero PR.
2024 executions: more than a decade high. If grim milestones were trophies, Death Row states would have PhDs in vicious competitiveness.
