The Killing of Richard Glossip

Published: July 9, 2023, 8:28 p.m.

No topic, save maybe abortion, engenders more debate than that of Execution in our penal system. The arguments on both sides are intense, but I think it\u2019s safe to say that both sides do not want an innocent man or woman to fall victim to the \u201cFinal Judgement.\u201d

\n

As they say on LAW AND ORDER, \u201cthe case at bar\u201d is that of Richard Eugene Glossip of Oklahoma. Mr. Glossip has been on death row for over 26 years for a murder he did not commit. In that time, he has had his execution date stayed 3 times,\nonce when he was actually strapped to the gurney.

\n

Here's the twist. He\u2019s innocent! Now you don\u2019t have to take my word for it. The various prosecuting authorities that have had a hand in this case say he is innocent to the degree that some were behind the latest stay, that was just granted by the Supreme Court as they head out of town at the end of the session.

\n

Is this a miscarriage of justice or just how the \u201csystem\u201d works?

My guest today is Republican Oklahoma State Representative, and death penalty proponent, Kevin McDugle. For the last 4 years, he has been an ardent advocate for Mr. Glossip in his fight for his life.
