But despite the dramatic news from the Boston courtroom on Friday, Tsarnaev?s fate will take years to reach its conclusion. Many of his new federal death row peers have been sitting waiting for the appeals process to work its way out for more than 20 years.
Though the Justice Department could attempt to fast-track executions in the name of public interest, death penalty experts expect the very quickest timeframe from Friday?s sentence to Tsarnaev actually being put on a gurney and injected with lethal chemicals would be at least 10 years.
