some wiki factoids:
Number of Federal executions - 37 from 1927 to 2003 (34 before 1963 which was the last prior to the reinstatement of the Federal death penalty in 1988)
79 Federal cases ended with the jury imposing the death penalty since 1988 (the year of reinstatement of the Federal death penalty)
Doing the math: 3 of 79 is 4% chance of execution
Average time between sentencing and execution (overall, not just Federal) is up to about 200 months.
