Unless I’m mistaken Murder means UNJUSTIFIED/UNLAWFUL homicide, so capital punishment cannot be murder. Neither can abortion (as long as it is legal I guess).
The killing of another person without justification or excuse, especially the crime of killing a person with malice aforethought or with recklessness manifesting extreme indifference to the value of human life."
