A wife of Julius Caesar was caught in a situation that had the appearance of adultery.
She did not receive the death penalty, but he did divorce her.

A daughter of Augustus Caesar had a high quantity sex life, unbecoming of an emperor’s daughter.
She did not receive the death penalty, but he did banish her.

Wikipedia
Finally Augustus discovered how Julia was behaving. After threatening her with death, he banished her to Pandataria, an island off the coast of Campania, in 2 bc. In ad 4 she was moved to Rhegium. Upon becoming emperor, Tiberius withheld her allowance, and Julia eventually died of malnutrition.

The Biblical Jesus (not necessarily the historical Jesus) came across a woman who was caught in adultery.
On Jesus’ watch, she did not receive the death penalty (except in future Chinese versions of the Bible).
