Oklahoma Attorney General

Oklahoma prosecutors say they will pursue a murder charge, but not the death penalty, against longtime death row inmate Richard Glossip for his role in the 1997 killing of his former boss.

Executive Director of CAIR OK said Drummond is using the Afghan community as “a political pawn” as he campaigns for governor.

Glossip has been on death row for two decades and has survived nine execution dates. Now the United States Supreme Court has tossed his conviction.

Oklahoma Attorney General Gentner Drummond requested the transfer last month so that George John Hanson would be eligible for the next available execution date which will likely be in June.
