List of people executed in the United States in 2008

This is a list of people executed in the United States in 2008. Thirty-seven people were executed in the United States in 2008. Eighteen of them were in the state of Texas. One (James Earl Reed) was executed via electrocution. Executions were not carried out in the United States between September 2007 and April 2008, due to certiorari in Baze v. Rees, which questioned the constitutionality of lethal injection. The U.S. Supreme Court stayed all executions for seven months until a decision was made, meaning executions did not begin until May, with none having taken place since that of Michael Wayne Richard the previous September.[1][2]
