Although not list­ed by BJS, the fol­low­ing offens­es are also pun­ish­able by death under the fed­er­al statute, though it is not clear that the death penal­ty would be con­sti­tu­tion­al for these offens­es under Kennedy v. Louisiana (2008) since they do not require a murder:

  • Trafficking in large quan­ti­ties of drugs (18 U.S.C. § 3591(b))
  • Attempting, autho­riz­ing or advis­ing the killing of any offi­cer, juror,or wit­ness in cas­es involv­ing a Continuing Criminal Enterprise, regard­less of whether such killing actu­al­ly occurs. (18 U.S.C. § 3591(b)(2))).
