List of people executed in New York
{{Short description|None}}
{{Use mdy dates|date=April 2025}}
This list of people executed in New York gives the names of some of the people executed in New York, both before and after statehood in the United States (including as New Amsterdam), as well as the person's date of execution, method of execution, and the name of the Governor of New York at the date of execution. 1963 marked the last execution in New York State. Some executions recorded during the 17th and 18th centuries do not indicate the name(s) of the executed and therefore are not included.
Regarding electrocutions, which comprise a large percentage of the executions:{{cite book|url=http://www.correctionhistory.org/singsing/ronaronsjewsofsingsing/chair.html|title=The Chair & Ron Arons' "Jews of Sing Sing" Lecture|via=New York Correction History Society|publisher=Barricade Books|date=1 June 2008|access-date=10 November 2012|isbn=978-1569803332}}

|15 August 1963 |Murder of Maria Marini in a robbery. This was the last execution in New York prior to the death penalty being declared unconstitutional in New York. |
As a result of several United States Supreme Court decisions, capital punishment was suspended in the United States from 1972 through 1976.
Since 24 June 2004, the New York State death penalty statute has been declared unconstitutional by the New York Court of Appeals.{{cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2007/12/14/nyregion/14death.html|work=The New York Times|title=New Jersey Moves to End Its Death Penalty|first=Jeremy W.|last=Peters|date=14 December 2007}}
