Extension of Virginia's Death Penalty Favored
In a survey of 101 Virginia General Assembly candidates, 62 favor expanding the death penalty to more crimes, while 33 oppose and six are undecided. The 1975 reform currently targets three murder-related offenses, with debate over adding rape, armed robbery, or killings of police, firefighters, or judges. Many align but cannot agree on which offenses to include.
