Death Penalty
- Capital punishment, also known as the death penalty, is a state-sanctioned practice of killing a person as a punishment for a crime.
Federal Crimes
- A federal crime is prosecuted under federal law, not state. Federal charges can come from crimes committed on federal lands, or from offenses like tax evasion.

Expungement
- Expungement makes a criminal record invisible to most people searching for it. State laws differ on the exact process, and what kinds of offenses are eligible.
Civil Rights and Liberties
- Civil rights can be thought of as the legal implementation, in the form of laws, of the civil liberties guaranteed in the U.S. Constitution, Bill of Rights, and the Kentucky Constitution.
