Any type of capital punishment is unconstitutional...
How so? The Constitution recognizes the validity of capital punishment in no fewer than four clauses: the grand jury clause ("capital, or otherwise infamous crime"), the double jeopardy clause ("put in jeopardy of life"), the Fifth Amendment's due process clause ("be deprived of life"), and the Fourteenth Amendment's due process clause ("deprive any person of life").
