repeal capital punishment.

This bill seeks to eliminate the death penalty in South Dakota by repealing all statutes that authorize capital punishment for criminal offenses. It directly affects the state's criminal justice system by removing the possibility of a death sentence for any convicted defendant. The key provision would require the legislature to establish alternative sentencing options, such as life imprisonment without parole, for crimes that previously carried the death penalty. This change would apply to all current and future cases, effectively ending the state's use of execution as a legal penalty.
