The death penalty is a possible sentence for Treason. Only a leftist
commie
sympathizer would refer to it as a lynching - LOL.

Lynching, so far as I am aware, refers to hanging of a person without
benefit of a trial. The definition could have changed.. YMMV.

However, the killing of any person without benefit of a trial is murder,
irregardless of the crime of which they are accused.
