Changi Prison Fortress - Inside Singapore’s Only Female Prison:    • Changi Prison Fortress: Inside Singapore’s...  

In the United States, 54 women are "on hold" for the execution of their death sentences. Linda Carty and Melissa Lucio are imprisoned in Texas. Linda Carty is accused of kidnapping and killing her neighbor to abduct her baby. Melissa Lucio allegedly mistreated her 2-year-old daughter. Detained in Arizona, Shawna Forde, head of an anti-immigration militia, was convicted, along with her accomplices, for murdering a father and his daughter. Some of them hope to have their cases reviewed. We followed them down the green line.

Updates as of August 2025:
1. Melissa Lucio: In 2024, the judge overseeing Melissa Lucio's case declared her innocent and recommended that her conviction and death sentence be overturned. This recommendation is currently pending review by the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals. The judge found that the prosecution suppressed evidence that supported Lucio's innocence at trial.
2. Linda Carty: She remains in prison as of 2025, with her legal battles continuing. Her case involves claims of inadequate legal representation during her original trial and violations of the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations regarding notification of her British citizenship to the UK consulate.
3. Shawna Forde: She remains on death row and awaits her execution date.
