Question 104998 • GA-GSE Government
Capital crimes are especially serious offenses that may be punishable by death. Murdering someone in cold blood and committing treason are examples; a death caused during a kidnapping can also qualify as a capital crime, even if the killing was accidental. Threatening someone during a robbery, shoplifting, and damaging property are not capital crimes by themselves.
