assaulted and stabbed two girls to death in 2005, 8-year-old laura hobbes and 9-year-old crystal tobiasangled a 20-year-old naval officer four years later. senator marsha blackburn slamming biden for this on hand at this last night. hannity last night. >> they went out and went forward with the commutations and moved it to life without parole rather than having these individuals have the death sentence carried out on them. after they have killed policemen, service members, children. this shows you that joe biden has no regard for the rule of law. gerri: three federal inmates remain on death row. joining me now is cornell university law professor and founder of equal protect.org, william jacobson. what do you make of the commutation, it's stunning to see what these individuals have done. just awful. what do you say? >> well, i think what's stunning is how sweeping it is. he is not taking into consideration a particular case, he's not taking into consideration whether somebody in prison has changed their life. the usual things that we look for when a commutation is done. none of that is t

administration, i just want to say the names of these victims lara hobbs was eight years old crystal tobiasurdered on mother's day stabbed to death. laura hobbs was sexually assaulted stabbed in both eyes over 30 times in total. amanda snell was serving our country, was sexually assaulted and strangled while she slept in her barracks in fort mire in arlington virginia. also attacked three women at arlington raped one of them strangled her and left her for dead in the woods, she happened to survive. so, yeah, he shouldn't be given a gift by the biden administration and what the biden administration did, which really makes this disgraceful in a number of ways, one basically nullifying the death penalty totally but he didn't want to go through congress nor did he want to discuss he was doing it, this was a christmas eve release when he did this. the other thing that makes it really bad, there were three people who were spared the death penalty, the most high profile of these cases and biden in his statement about why he's getting rid -- or why he's commuting the sentence, he couldn't in good c

for instance, laura hobbs and crystal tobias, they're -- a 9-year-old, they were raped and murdered.ame? karl rove said, no, i don't think he knew them at all. and he called this morally bankrupt, making this decision. but as you point out, obviously, the death penalty is a long-running debate in our country. and biden has been consistent up until now to exclude the three. there are questions, i think, that'll linger. howard: donald trump says when you hear the acts of each, you won't believe he the did this. makes no sense. isn't the coverage likely to be far more critical when it's the opposite point of view? >> well, sure, was now the president-elect, soon to be inaugurated donald trump, is already saying he's going to direct his doj to forcefully enforce the death penalty in federal cases. so you're going to see the pend if lumbar swing. but -- pendulum swing. there's nothing that i believe legally trump could do in the cases, these 37 cases, that ship has sailed. howard: yeah. there's a lot of concern here, but to do it christmas week, i think, just adds to it as you pointed out

let's go through a couple, laura hobbs, and crystal tobias, eight and nine years old sexually assaulteded by george torres, who went on to kill amanda snell. another example, lexis roberts was 12 years old when thomas sanders took her life after making her watch him murder her mother. >> it's two days before christmas. i can only imagine the grief and the shock that these families are experiencing as they get ready for the holidays. reporter: in a statement president biden says he condemns the crimes of the 37 murders whose sentences he's downgraded and he grieves for their victims but added "in good conscience i can not stand back and let a new administration resume executions that i halted." a statement by president-elect trump's team called the 37 among the worst killers in the world and the president's decision abhorrent saying under trump the rule of law will return when he's back in the white house. now there are some democrats pushing up against or pushing back against president biden's parting gift here. listen to this. >> i am real concerns overall with the death penalty but i
