La peine de mort est l'objet d'une vive polémique aux États-Unis, où elle est autorisée dans 38 États. Dans les années soixante-dix, la constitutionnalité de la peine de mort fut remise en question; la Cour Suprême jugea qu'elle était souvent appliquée de façon arbitraire et plus de 600 détenus virent leur peine commuée. Par conséquent les condamnés à mort furent de plus en plus nombreux à demander à ce que leur cas soit réexaminé, ce qui aboutit au surpeuplement des quartiers réservés aux condamnés à mort. Au cours des dernières années, le nombre d'exécutions capitales a augmenté de façon spectaculaire dans certains États, notamment au Texas. -
