@marshallproj: California Gov. Gavin Newsom has moved to commute the death sentences of all 548 people facing execution in the state, allowing them to instead serve life sentences without the possibility of parole.   The California Supreme Court must approve some of these commutations. If they do, Newsom’s action would be responsible for the largest mass commutation of death sentences in U.S. history.   ✍️: Maurice Chammah / The Marshall Project 🎥: Brandon Wall / The Marshall Project 📷: Apu Gomes/Getty Images
