What crimes are punishable by death in the US?
The United States federal government (in comparison to the separate states) applies the death penalty for crimes: treason, terrorism, espionage, federal murder, large-scale drug trafficking, and attempting to kill a witness, juror, or court officer in certain cases.
How many states still have the death penalty?
Only 31 states currently allow for the death penalty, and seven states have repealed the punishment since 2004. Today, there are about 600 fewer prisoners on death row than there were at the end of 2000.
