Gov. Gavin Newsom plans to sign an executive order Wednesday suspending the death penalty in California and granting reprieves for the 737 inmates on the state’s largest-in-the-nation Death Row.

The order also will withdraw the state’s lethal injection protocol, the subject of years of litigation and close the death chamber at San Quentin State Prison. Information released by the governor’s office Tuesday night does not suggest Newsom will commute any sentences. The directive will not release any prisoners or alter any current sentences.
