“A man who fatally shot a man and woman outside a Florida bar as part of an attempted revenge killing is scheduled to be [killed] on Tuesday, which would be the 26th execution carried out in the U.S. this year. So far, 25 men have been executed in 2025, tying the number of executions in 2024 and 2018. In 2015, there were 28 executions in the U.S. Michael Bernard Bell, 54, is scheduled to receive a lethal injection at Florida State Prison near Starke, barring a last-day reprieve. He was convicted in 1995 and sentenced to death for the murders of Jimmy West and Tamecka Smith. Bell would be the eighth person put to death in Florida this year, with a ninth scheduled for later this month. The state executed six people in 2023, but carried out only one execution last year.” (07/15/25)
