ON DEATH ROW FOR A MURDER HE DIDN’T COMMIT

Richard Glossip has been on death row for 26 years for a murder he did not commit. The actual, admitted killer, Justin Sneed, cut a deal to save his own life and testified against Glossip, accusing him of hiring Sneed to kill their boss. Sneed now sits in a medium security prison.

Richard will be executed for the murder Sneed committed despite new evidence uncovered which no jury has ever seen and despite strong support from the Oklahoma Attorney General and more than 62 state legislators, a majority of them pro-death penalty Republicans.

Two independent investigations requested by state legislators and the Attorney General concluded Glossip did not receive a fair trial,  the State withheld evidence, and the DA’s office lost or destroyed evidence.

The Attorney General, a pro-death penalty Republican, recently filed papers in the U.S. Supreme Court admitting Glossip’s conviction cannot stand and that he should not be executed. The Attorney General said it would be a “grave injustice” to execute Glossip, and “no execution should be carried out under such questionable circumstances.”
