Capital punishment in South Dakota
Capital punishment is legal in the U.S. state of South Dakota. First-degree murder with an aggravating circumstance is the only capital crime in the state.〔(Crimes Punishable by the Death Penalty )〕
==History and current practices==
South Dakota executed four men between 1877 and its admission to the union in 1889, and 10 men between that time and the abolition of South Dakota's death penalty in 1915.〔(Regional Studies Central )〕〔http://users.bestweb.net/~rg/execution/SO%20DAKOTA.htm〕 Each of these death sentences were carried out by hanging.〔〔(South Dakota DOC-FAQ-Capital Punishment )〕 The death penalty was reinstated in 1939 and electric chair became the sole method.〔 George Sitts was the only person electrocuted in South Dakota. There were speculations that his 1947 execution was in an electric chair borrowed from Nebraska due to problems with South Dakota own chair.〔(South Dakota's Chair )〕 South Dakota was the second-to-last state to use electrocution, and Sitts' execution was South Dakota's last until after ''Furman''.〔 {http://users.bestweb.net/~rg/Electric%20Chairs/Americas%20Electric%20Chairs.htm Americas Electric Chairs]〕
On January 1, 1979, Governor Bill Janklow signed South Dakota's post-''Furman'' death penalty statute. It was the first act he signed as governor.〔(Death Penalty Information Center )〕 All subsequent executions have been by lethal injection. As of October 2012 three people, all white males, have been executed since then; two of those cases were voluntary.〔(Death Penalty Information Center )〕
