Please read these links before you post them. The New York murder rate peaked in 1990, 5 years before the death penalty was returned. The post-1995 decline was a continuation of a trend established well before the legislation was passed. You will see from the page you posted that the decline in murders between 1990 and 1995 - before the death penalty was brought back - was significantly greater than the decline between 1995 and 2000, and that the 2000 figure was higher than that for 1999. You won't get any causative relationship out of those numbers.

Better luck next time.
