Lee (For the N. C. Bar Association) CAPITAL CRIMES What crimes are punishable by death in North Carolina? Murder in the first degree, burglary in the first degree, rape, and arson. If at the time of rendering its verdict in open court, the jury shall so recommend, the punish ment for any of these crimes may be imprisonment for life in the State’s prison. Crimes punishable by death are frequently called “capital crimes.’’ How is the death penalty ad ministered in North Carolina? Death sentences for crimes com mitted subsequent to July 1, 1935, are carried out by the adminis tration of lethal gas. If a person should be arrested and convicted today for a capital crime committed prior to July 1, 1935, the death sentence would be carried out by electrocution. Why are the crimes of arson and burglary punishable by death? Both of these crimes are against the habitation of human beings and have always been regarded as of the most serious or aggra vated offenses.

In order to con stitute this crime there must be somv burning, though very slight, to a home. The willful and malicious burn ing of a school house, a church, a store building, and the like is not arson in North Carolina. Although such acts are serious crimes, they are not crimes that carry the death penalty. What is burglary? Burglary is the breaking and entering of a dwelling house, or in any room used as a sleeping apartment in any building, of another, in the nighttime, with the intent to commit a felony therein. Burglary is generally commit ted with an intent to steal, but there are frequent cases where the intent is to rape or commit other crimes. The particular crime in North Carolina is divided into two de grees, first and second, depending upon the actual occupancy of the dwelling or sleeping apartment at the time of the commission of the crime. If the habitation is actually oc cupied at the time of the commis sion of the crime, it is burglary in the first degree and punishable by either death or life imprison ment. If the habitation is not actually occupied at the time of the commission of the crime, it is burglary in the second degree and punishable by either life im prisonment or for a term of years in the discretion of the judge.
