Glossip has been served his last meal three times: fish and chips, a Wendy's Baconator, a strawberry shake and pizza.
"We are extremely grateful for Governor Stitt's thoughtful and compassionate decision to grant a 60-day reprieve for Rich's execution date, and to do so sufficiently in advance of the August 23 clemency hearing to spare everyone the trauma that such a hearing entails," Glossip's attorney Don Knight said in a statement to"This will also spare Mr. Glossip from beginning the cruel execution protocol for a fourth time.
Knight added that"new evidence of innocence continues to be uncovered on an almost daily basis, including compelling evidence of admitted killer Justin Sneed's desire to recant his testimony accusing Mr. Glossip of orchestrating the murder of Barry Van Treese. "The defense team will continue to focus our efforts on bringing this evidence to the OCCA to obtain the new hearing Rich clearly deserves.", said he was"thankful for Governor Stitt's wise decision to grant Richard Glossip a 60-day reprieve so the OCCA has time to complete its work."
McDugle, who led the ad hoc committee of state legislators that requested Reed Smith investigate the case, said the evidence that Sneed had wanted to recant his testimony further underscores the need for a new evidentiary hearing."Oklahomans—including both those who support and oppose the death penalty—will not tolerate him being executed without being given the chance to call witnesses in court, and to confront the lies of Justin Sneed that have robbed Mr. Glossip of the last 25 years.
