Three people have been killed by firing squad executions in the United States in the last 50 years, the last occurring in 2010 in Utah by a prisoner who picked that method. | Idaho state Representative Bruce Skaug, a Republican has introduced a bill to the state legislature that would once again legalize death by firing squad in the state. If the law passes, it could be used for Bryan Kohberger, the 28-year-old accused of murdering four University of Idaho students on November 13. Prosecutors say he was linked to the crime by DNA evidence and cell phone location data.   Prosecutors have not announced if they will seek the death penalty in the case. Kohberger is expected to enter a plea in June and prosecutors have until July to announce if they will seek the death penalty. Currently, lethal injection is the only legal method of execution in the state of Idaho. If Skaug’s bill passes it would allow the state to use a firing squad if the chemicals needed for the execution cannot be obtained by the state five days after the death warrant is signed.
