Is there any slang for 絞首刑?


In English it is quite common to use the expression "to get the chair" to
refer to the death penalty. For example:

> He committed such a terrible crime, I hope **he gets the chair**. *

The word 絞首刑, "death by hanging", is the only Japanese word I know in this
regard. Is there any slang (such as "to get the rope") that can be used to
indicate someone who was/will be sentenced to death?

* _This example is **by no means** related to me being in favor or against the death penalty._




There might be yakuza slang for it, but there isn’t a common phrase for it. My
gut feeling is that death just isn’t something Japanese joke about as much as
eg Americans do.
