]]> No publisher ACabello 2020-12-31T05:00:00Z Page Capital Punishment Information https://www.doc.ks.gov/newsroom/capital/data The State of Kansas has not conducted an execution since 1965.  

  • The U.S. Supreme Court struck down the death penalty laws in 40 states, including Kansas, in 1972. After several previous attempts, the 1994 Legislature enacted a death penalty law, which Governor Joan Finney allowed to become law without her signature. The statute took effect on July 1, 1994.
  • Kansas statute established the death penalty by lethal injection as a sentencing option for offenders 18 years of age and older who are convicted of capital murder (K.S.A. 21-3439).
  • A number of inmates have been convicted of capital murder but sentenced to life in prison (with a minimum term of 25 years to parole eligibility) instead of death.
  • Kansas does not have a separate “death row.” Inmates sentenced to death are typically housed in El Dorado Correctional Facility (EDCF), along with other inmates who are in administrative segregation.
  • Inmate Scott Cheever was sentenced to death for the murder of Greenwood County Sheriff Matt Samuels. Inmate Cheever is held in the Administrative Segregation Unit at Lansing Correctional Facility (LCF) due to the number of friends and family of Sheriff Samuels who are employed at EDCF.
  • In the event that a female inmate is sentenced to death, she will be held at the Topeka Correctional Facility (TCF), the only facility for female inmates in Kansas.
  • Inmates managed at EDCF or TCF will be transferred to the Lansing Correctional Facility within a week of the scheduled date of the execution.
  • The average annual cost of incarceration at the El Dorado Correctional Facility for Fiscal Year 2016 was $25,596.

One of the biggest names in Contemporary Christian music, Brandon Heath, took to the stage on the yard of Lansing Correctional Facility in partnership with a local radio station. Heath performed 3 separate sets of his songs as the population was staggered for safety and security. Private donations to the radio station also provided a meal, board games, and Bibles for the men. The event was co-sponsored by Brothers in the Blue Reentry program.
