Capital punishment in Vermont
The death penalty was a legal form of punishment in Vermont until 1965. Vermont last executed a prisoner in 1954. However, Vermont statutes still state that the punishment for treason is death.〔http://legislature.vermont.gov/statutes/section/13/075/03401〕
In 2005, Donald Fell was sentenced to death after being convicted of carjacking with death resulting and kidnapping with death resulting by a federal jury in Vermont.〔Pre-sentencing claims of psychiatric illness, toxicology issues, and matters relating to future dangerousness were initially raised and were subsequently addressed by (expert forensic examination ). Once pre-sentencing issues were resolved, Fell’s actions were found to meet the threshold as a capital eligible crime because the following aggravating factors applied: 1. Fell caused the death of King during the commission of the crime of kidnapping, §3592(c)(1); 2. Fell’s behavior was especially heinous, cruel or depraved in that it involved serious physical abuse to King, § 3592(c)(6); and 3. Fell intentionally killed or attempted to kill more than one person in a single criminal episode, § 3592(c)(16).〕 Theoretically, following federal law, Donald Fell would have been executed by electrocution as provided by Vermont Penal Code. Fell's conviction was overturned in July 2014 due to "egregious juror misconduct"〔http://www.burlingtonfreepress.com/story/news/local/vermont/2014/07/24/judge-orders-new-trial-fell-case/13123751/〕 and he will be retried in 2016.〔http://www.burlingtonfreepress.com/story/news/2015/04/10/fell-death-penalty-trial-due-in-us-court/25564925/〕
