'''Capital punishment''', informally known as the '''death penalty''', is a form of legal punishment involving the execution of an individual. The death penalty is used when violating laws of particular importance of the [[United Nations Space Command]], such as the [[JAG 4465/LHG]] protocol. Some instances of the death penalty being threatened on UNSC personnel include failure to comply with the [[United Nations Space Command Emergency Priority Order 098831A-1|Cole Protocol]], insubordination and cowardice.<ref>'''[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]]''', ''page 122''</ref> | '''Capital punishment''', informally known as the '''death penalty''', is a form of legal punishment involving the execution of an individual.
