Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has signed a death warrant for James Ernest Hitchcock, convicted of a 1976 rape and murder, setting his execution for April 30th. This is the seventh warrant signed this year, with four already carried out. Meanwhile, a stay blocks another execution due to inconclusive DNA tests. Florida has been executing inmates at a rapid pace, with nineteen potential executions this year, putting it on track for a record. The debate on justice and finality continues in the Sunshine State.
