Fifteen men have died by court-ordered execution so far this year in the U.S. , and 12 other people are scheduled to be put to death in eight states during the remainder of 2025 .

Glen Rogers is set to die by lethal injection in Florida on Thursday , followed by scheduled executions in Texas and Indiana on May 20 and Tennessee on May 22 .

Other states with scheduled executions this year are Alabama , Mississippi , Ohio , and Oklahoma , though Ohio ’s governor has been routinely postponing the actions.

Ohio has two executions set for later this year , with Timothy Coleman scheduled to die on Oct. 30 and Kareem Jackson scheduled to be executed on Dec. 10 . However, Republican Gov. Mike DeWine has been routinely postponing the actions as their dates approach. He did so in February , when he postponed into 2028 three executions scheduled for June, July and August of this year . DeWine has said publicly that he does not anticipate any further executions will happen on his watch as governor, which runs through 2026 ..
