The news didn't specify exactly if the new law would be beneficial to the old cases or worse, so hard to say. But, in general, I would say they should be retroactive.

Only convictions that come down after the law change should be affected by it.

Personally they should have let the law stand the way it was. Stop pampering criminals!

There are people on Oregon's death row that should be executed. Why you ask? Because the voters mandated those be punished for their crimes. Why should one person be allowed to dictate law?

I don't like the new rule, so I really don't want it to be retroactive too.

Nope! Start with a clean-forward slate. And, by all means reinitiate capital punishment for all heinous crimes! Send a message to all who may try but won't considering the dire consequences!

It shouldn't be applied to any cases. We the people voted to have the death penalty in Oregon and voted against eliminating it. Kate Hitler had no right to change things.

That was the punishment when they committed the crime, that is the punishment they should receive. If punishments were stricter, criminals might think twice before committing the crime

There should be no restrictions. Most trials happen with in 6 months of the arrest. After convictions they get 12 months for appeals and then thats it. Chair, gas or shots

Because the president wants to put America first and make it as prosperous as it once was. #MAGA

Exec branch has the responsibility to manage the economy with other countries, congress can’t even produce an annual budget - look at this democrat shutdown, they want to spend another 1.5T on healthcare subsidies- sorry, we are in the hole $35T, wake up America.

Trump’s tariffs violate the constitution. Congress holds the nations purse strings. I can’t believe we hardly heard a peep from members of Congress on his actions. Spineless

Absolutely not. The Constitution gives that authority to Congress, NOT the executive branch of the government. Trump’s actions are absolutely illegal and unconstitutional. But he doesn’t care, and has been giving Congress and the American People the finger for the past 10 months.
