The death penalty process typically consists of two main phases: the guilt phase and the sentencing phase. In the guilt phase, the jury determines whether the defendant is guilty of the crime for which they are being prosecuted, often involving a trial with evidence and witness testimonies. If found guilty, the sentencing phase follows, where the jury decides whether to impose the death penalty or a lesser sentence, considering aggravating and mitigating factors.

What US Supreme Court cases supported the death penalty?
The Supreme Court has never declared that the death penalty is unconstitutional. In the 1972 case of Furman v. Georgia, the Court ruled that the death penalty was unconstitutional as applied in three specific cases. This effectively put a moratorium on the death penalty as lower courts struggled to determine when (or if) the death penalty could be applied. The Furman opinion was per curium, with each of the nine justices writing their own opinions (5 concurring and 4 dissenting).Four years later, in 1976, the Supreme Court made clear in the case of Gregg v. Georgia that the death penalty wasconstitutional. Georgia had amended their death penalty statute in the interceding four years and now had additional protections for the defendant in capital cases, including a two-phased trial: one for guilt and one for sentencing.The Court in Gregg summarized Furman thusly:"While Furman did not hold that the infliction of the death penalty per se violates the Constitution's ban on cruel and unusual punishments, it did recognize that the penalty of death is different in kind from any other punishment imposed under our system of criminal justice. Because of the uniqueness of the death penalty, Furman held that it could not be imposed under sentencing procedures that created a substantial risk that it would be inflicted in an arbitrary and capricious manner."
