California Guv commutes death sentences of 548 people in largest clemency in US history

Outgoing California Governor Gavin Newsom commuted the death sentences of all 548 inmates on death row in the state to life in prison, marking the largest mass clemency in US history. The Democrat, who has long opposed the death penalty, is being considered a probable candidate for president in 2028. Notably, California has not executed an inmate since 2006.
