FILE - The execution room at the Oregon State Penitentiary is pictured on Nov. 18, 2011, in Salem, Ore. Oregon Gov. Kate Brown announced on Tuesday, Dec. 13, 2022, she is commuting the sentences of the 17 prison inmates in Oregon who have been sentenced to death to life imprisonment without the possibility of parole. – Oregon Gov.
Rep. Vikki Breese-Iverson, leader of the minority Republicans in the Oregon House of Representatives, accused Brown of “a lack of responsible judgment.” "My hope is that this commutation will bring us a significant step closer to finality in these cases,” she said. The prosecutors, in particular, objected to Brown’s decision to allow 73 people convicted of murder, assault, rape and manslaughter while they were younger than 18 to apply for early release.
The Oregon Department of Corrections announced in May 2020 it was phasing out its death row and reassigning those inmates to other special housing units or general population units at the state penitentiary in Salem and other state prisons.
