Death card usually does not connote physical death, but instead portrays a symbolic change or transformation.

Symbolic or not, the death penalty would be the most appropriate form of 'transformation'.

No death penalty in D.C. Moratorium on executions in MD (thanks to Gov. Glenspending and KKT, who wants to use it as a race-baiting issue). This guy just committed a murder in VA, which frequently executes perps. That was a big mistake.
