The U.S. government later this month is set to execute the only woman on federal death row. Federal executions have become commonplace under the Trump administration, with 10 people having been put to death since July and three more executions scheduled before President-elect Joe Biden is sworn in. According to a recent article published by ProPublica, in the Trump administration's rush to carry out these executions, it quote "trampled over an array of barriers, both legal and practical." ProPublica reporter Isaac Arnsdorf joined CBSN's Lana Zak to discuss his reporting.
