Just rewatched the cracking comedy Dave (made in a more simple time).
Led me to think about what degree of non lethal high crime and misdemeanour could end up with the culprit being sentenced to death. In that film two of the main characters commit an unbelievable act of treason by covering up the President is in a vegetative state and hiring an impersonator to pass himself off as the President, so as to avoid the VP being sworn in under the 25th.
Would that lead to the death penalty? If not, what form of high crime that does not involve physical harm to another person could end up with a death sentence?
