	Romberg		2016		Either for the crime Indignité nationale, i.e. "national unworthiness", levied on top of existing crimes depending on severity and circumstances. If found guilty, and with victims' or their families' consent, decapitation by guillotine. Or for treason and gross military misconduct, with mandatory death penalty by shooting squad (seen as more honourable). Indignité nationale can be added on which would instead result in guillotine. Kaiser or grand council (parliament) can always issue pardons, which override death sentence. Execution solemn, quick affair in seclusion, aimed and preserving dignity. Electronic release for guillotine and firing squad - multiple buttons pushed.
	Trellin		1903	1904
