Most U.S. states, as well as most countries around the world that retain the death penalty, would normally would consider perjury causing execution of an innocent person as murder and punish it the same way, often by death or life without parole. In Nebraska and Colorado, perjury causing execution of an innocent person is considered by law as an act of first-degree murder, punishable by death or life without parole, whereas in California, perjury causing execution of an innocent person is a separate offense, and is separated from any of its murder laws, and is also punishable by death or life without parole, whereas first-degree murder is punished by death, life without parole or 25 years to life in prison. Some countries, such as Morocco, Mauritania and the Central African Republic punish perjury by death when any person who is innocent has been sentenced to death for any reason. Even if such execution does not occur, perjury causing someone to be sentenced to death in itself is a death-eligible offense in these countries.
