Florida continues to lead nation in executions this year as DeSantis signs latest death warrant
With three other executions planned, Guardado would become Florida’s 20th execution this year, according to the Death Penalty Information Center.
- Governor Ron DeSantis signed a death warrant for Jesse Guardado on Monday, scheduling his execution for November 5 at Florida State Prison, following scheduled executions for three other inmates including William Reaves on October 20.
- Florida continues to lead the nation in executions, with the state on track to exceed its 2025 record of 19, the highest since capital punishment was revived in 1976.
- Attorneys for William Reaves filed an emergency motion Monday asking the Florida Supreme Court to stay his October 20 execution, citing concerns over consciousness-check procedures and his "substantial hearing impairment."
- Advocates have warned that Florida could face the same "spectacle" as Tennessee, where Governor Bill Lee halted executions after intravenous lines could not be established into inmates.
- Guardado remains scheduled for execution on November 5 for the 2004 murder of Jackie Malone, despite defense attorneys' claims that previous counsel provided "ineffective" representation during his penalty phase.
