∙ 12y agoUtah formally reinstated capital punishment on January 7, 1973. However, as of 2008 no commutation of the death sentence has been given in Utah. As in any other state, people who are under 18 at the time of commission of the capital crime or mentally retarded are constitutionally precluded from being executed.
So the answer is - yes - Utah does currently have the death penalty.
