Carter Page didn't get the electric chair for years upon years of contacts with the FSB.

Donald Trump Jr. didn't get the electric chair for meeting Natalya Veselnitskaya, secret agent of the russian Ministry of the Interior. Or for his contacts to the "hostile non-state intelligence service" Wikileaks.
Rudy Giuliani didn't get the electric chair for meeting with Julian Assange, head of the "hostile non-state intelligence service" Wikileaks.
Paul Manafort didn't get the electric chair for organizing anti-US protests in Ukraine.
Mike Flynn didn't get the electric chair for trying to kidnap Fetullah Gulen and trying to sell him to Turkey, or for mishandling secret information while he was in the army, or for having an inappropriate relationship with a young russian woman while he was in the army, or for organizing meetings with foreign governments on behalf of the US-government behind the back of the Obama-administration.

I mean, wouldn't someone convicted of high treason get lethal injection these days, or is it a firing squad for that?
I am curious because there is someone I know of who might qualify.

(12,712 posts)Lethal Injection is the primary method, however, there are states that use other means as options. Three of them include a firing squad.
So, theoretically, hanging, lethal gas, electric chair and firing squad secondary methods in some states if lethal injection cannot be performed.
