BJS has released "Capital Punishment, 2022 – Statistical Tables". This report presents statistics on prisoners who were under sentence of death in 2022 and historical trends in executions. It describes which jurisdictions carried out an execution in 2022 and includes advance counts of 2023 executions. The report also presents the demographics (including sex, race and ethnicity, age, education, and marital status) and criminal history of persons under sentence of death. A summary of changes to state and federal death penalty laws during 2022 and tables showing state and federal capital offenses accompany the report as separate attachments. BJS collects information about capital punishment each year through the National Prisoner Statistics program.
