To get the death penalty, there must be an enhancement to "mere" murder. I would think that premeditated murder is enhancement enough, but in Utah, mistakenly regarded as a red state, you need to murder someone in a bad way.

Those "bad ways" of committing murder include putting additional people in danger or killing someone for a political motive.

Robinson's team concedes that he murdered Charlie Kirk -- I mean, he admitted it eleven times in texts and verbal admission to his parents.

But they say his shot was well-aimed and did not put anyone else in danger, so he should not be executed for his murder.
