North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper (D) commuted death sentences for 15 inmates on his last day in office.
On Tuesday Cooper announced that he has commuted the sentences of 15 people on death row in North Carolina to life without the possibility of parole after a thorough review of detailed petitions for clemency.
“These reviews are among the most difficult decisions a Governor can make and the death penalty is the most severe sentence that the state can impose,” said Governor Cooper. “After thorough review, reflection, and prayer, I concluded that the death sentence imposed on these 15 people should be commuted, while ensuring they will spend the rest of their lives in prison.”

This is nothing but an “eff-you” to the people of North Carolina for voting for Trump. Just like Cooper’s role model Biden did at the federal level.

Did he speak with the victim’s family first?

Some of those commuted are going to go after the families of the victims, because they are still angry about it.
