BREAKING: Oklahoma’s state parole board voted not to recommend clemency for death row inmate Richard Glossip, even though the state attorney general said he doesn’t think the condemned man received a fair trial.
FILE - This photo provided by the Oklahoma Department of Corrections shows death row inmate Richard Glossip on Feb. 19, 2021. Oklahoma's new Attorney General Gentner Drummond plans to ask the state's Pardon and Parole Board on Wednesday, April 26, 2023, to recommend sparing the life of Glossip, a highly unusual move for the state's top prosecutor's office that typically urges the board to reject clemency.
The board voted 2-2 to not recommend that Republican Gov. Kevin Stitt grant clemency to Glossip, who is scheduled to die by lethal injection on May 18. One board member recused himself because his spouse is a prosecutor who had previous involvement in Glossip’s case. Drummond has said that although he doesn’t believe Glossip is innocent, he thinks he didn’t receive a fair trial and deserves a new one.

Oklahoma attorney general to recommend clemency for GlossipOklahoma's new Attorney General Gentner Drummond is planning to ask the state's Pardon and Parole Board to recommend clemency for death row inmate Richard Glossip. Such a move is highly unusual for the state's top prosecutor's office, which always urges the board to reject clemency. But Drummond says in a Monday letter to the five-member board that he has serious concerns about the fairness of Glossip's trial. Drummond previously asked the Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals to vacate Glossip's sentence, but the court declined to do so. Glossip has long maintained his innocence in the 1997 beating death of Barry Van Treese, the owner of the hotel where Glossip worked. He is scheduled to be executed on May 18.
