US executes three prisoners in one day for first time since 2010
On the same day, the states of Tennessee and Oklahoma carried out the executions of two prisoners within a 30-minute interval, followed by Alabama, marking the first time since 2010 that three executions have taken place in a single day. A man was executed in Tennessee for killing a maid in 1985, another in Oklahoma for murdering his girlfriend in 2003, and a man in Alabama for killing a 5-year-old girl. This event reflects an increase in executions across the United States, where 47 people have been executed in 2025—the highest number since 2009. With executions carried out this year, 22 prisoners have been executed so far, with more than 10 additional cases scheduled. The last time three executions occurred on the same day was on January 7, 2010.
