Eight federal inmates - once on death row for murders, including the killings of fellow prisoners, gang-related stabbings, and the slayings of two campers - have been transferred to a notorious "supermax" prison in Colorado, the Justice Department said. The news comes as U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi looks to crack down on the previous administration's sweeping clemency actions. The eight former death row inmates were transferred Tuesday to the U.S. Penitentiary Administrative Maximum Facility in Florence, Colorado, also known as "ADX," Justice Department officials confirmed. They were among the 37 death row inmates whose sentences Biden commuted in late December - prompting criticism and complaints that the record clemency and commutation actions were done as a political "Hail Mary," and without proper vetting. More of the death row inmates are expected to be moved to ADX, some within weeks, according to one individual familiar with the matter. The 37 death row inmates commuted by Biden are all expected to be moved to the facility by "early next year,". The effort comes as Bondi and the Trump administration have sought to reverse some of the Biden administration's efforts on criminal justice reform for certain criminals, and instead moved to prioritize violent crime and cracking down on the nation's worst offenders. Though a commutation cannot be fully reversed, Justice Department officials said Bondi has prioritized ways to penalize these individuals, in coordination with directives from Trump, and to ensure that the "conditions of confinement" are "consistent with the security risks those inmates present because of their egregious crimes, criminal histories, and all other relevant considerations," according to an earlier DOJ memo. - @themidnight123
