Feddon currently ministers to James Duckett, who is scheduled to be executed at noon on Tuesday. Duckett has spent more than three decades on death row after being convicted of murdering 11-year-old Teresa McAbee in 1987. Hours after Duckett’s death, the state plans to execute Dominick Occhicone, an 80-year-old man who would be the second octogenarian ever executed in the US death penalty’s modern era, according to data from the Death Penalty Information Center (DPIC). #law #DeathPenalty

Occhicone was convicted of double murder in 1987 for killing his former girlfriend’s parents, Raymond & Martha Artzner. The scheduling of 2 executions – both via lethal injection – in one day comes as #Florida has accelerated its pace of executions, even as other states have abolished or paused the practice. #law #DeathPenalty #execution

Under the admin of #Republican Gov #RonDeSantis, #Florida executed 19 death row inmates in 2025 – a record high, & more than double the state’s previous record in modern history, according to DPIC. It has already put 10 prisoners to death this year. “This administration is the most active #DeathPenalty administration we’ve ever seen,” Maria DeLiberato, senior counsel at the ACLU’s #CapitalPunishment Project, told CNN. #law #execution

2 men scheduled to be put to death in #Florida Tuesday in rare double #execution Two Florida death row inmates are scheduled to be executed hours apart on Tuesday, which would mark the first time in more than six decades the state puts to death multiple people within a single day, as state officials continue to ramp up executions. #law #DeathPenalty https://www.cnn.com/2026/07/26/us/florida-executions-james-duckett-dominick-occhicone

“I’m not shocked anymore by the number of death warrants that are being signed, but it struck me as a kind of rupture to the system that we would execute 2 people within 6 hours from one another,” said Father Dustin Feddon, a Catholic priest who has been visiting prisoners on #Florida’s death row for more than a decade. #law #DeathPenalty #execution

🗨️ Ah, here we go again with the MEMO crocodiles... do you see what I mean? We all profit from the crap that Israel and its ministers stir up! What would all those #online #media outlets be without all these atrocities and absurdities that defy every humanitarian law? Zero Covid! I don't think a single Palestinian Resistance fighter could be intimidated by this, but it sure is good for their shitty headlines and clicks! Right, Haaretz? #deathpenalty #genocide #law https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20260722-israel-begins-digging-crocodile-trenches-around-prison-wing-holding-hamas-members/

@tusk81@mastodon.social We need to start saying "Extra-Judicial Street Executions" every time. You too, media. Do your f*cking jobs. These goons have no right to dish out the death penalty - especially over fairy tales. #News #Media #ICE #DeathPenalty #MurderForProfit #WhiteNationalism #Racism #ACAB

The court’s ruling came after a 2025 Verite News and ProPublica investigation examined the reliability of the key forensic evidence used to convict Duncan.
