Florida Governor Cancels Execution Warrant in Unprecedented Decision

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has withdrawn a death warrant for William Lee Thompson, 74, who was found guilty of murder in Miami-Dade County. It is the first time DeSantis has withdrawn a death warrant. A second execution was still scheduled for Tuesday.

The move came days after a failed execution attempt involving Christa Pike drew sharp attention over Florida's execution process. The governor provided no statement for withdrawing the warrant for Thompson specifically.
