美国计划一周内执行5次处决,在多年下降后大幅度增加。 5 executions scheduled in a week in the U.S., a significant increase after years of decline.

美国计划在一周内执行五起死刑,这是死刑减少多年之后数十年来最高的一次。 Five executions are scheduled in the U.S. over one week, the highest number in decades, following a years-long decline in capital punishment. 第一次处决发生在南卡罗来纳州,其他计划在阿拉巴马州、得克萨斯州、密苏里州和俄克拉荷马州执行。 The first execution occurred in South Carolina, with others planned in Alabama, Texas, Missouri, and Oklahoma. 专家认为,这一高峰是偶然的,与确定囚犯用尽上诉之后的日期的个别州有关。 Experts suggest this spike is coincidental, linked to individual states setting dates after inmates exhausted appeals. 促成因素可能包括药物短缺和事先暂停使用。 Contributing factors may include drug shortages and prior moratoriums.
