Juez de Utah declara en desacato a fiscales y mantiene pena de muerte

El juez Tony Graf de Utah declaró en desacato a un fiscal por violar una orden que prohibía declaraciones públicas en el caso del asesinato de Charlie Kirk, y se negó a eliminar la pena de muerte como posible sanción. Según CNN, el juez constató que el fiscal había divulgado información en contra de la restricción impuesta por el tribunal. La sanción por desacato puede incluir multas, pero no impide que la fiscalía siga persiguiendo la pena capital.

Posteriormente, Al Jazeera informó que en realidad dos fiscales fueron encontrados en desacato por la misma infracción. El juez Graf reiteró que la pena de muerte sigue siendo una opción de sentencia disponible. Estas decisiones indican la aplicación estricta de las normas de publicidad previa al juicio, al tiempo que mantienen el abanico completo de penas en el caso.
