Coker v. Georgia
1977 U.S. Supreme Court case prohibiting the use of capital punishment for adult rape
Coker v. Georgia
Coker v. Georgia, 433 U.S. 584 (1977) was a United States Supreme Court decision which held that the death penalty for rape of an adult was grossly disproportionate and excessive punishment, and therefore unconstitutional under the Eighth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. The Court expanded the ban on death penalty for rape to include rape of a child in the 2008 decision Kennedy v. Louisiana.
