Campaign To Remove Oklahoma Inmate Richard Glossip From Death Row Continues

For years, celebrities, activists, elected officials, and others have been campaigning to remove 58-year-old Oklahoma prison inmate Richard Glossip from death row. Glossip claims he was wrongfully convicted of first-degree murder and soliciting his co-worker, Justin Sneed, to kill their then-boss, Oklahoma City motel owner Barry Van Treese in 1997. “Totally inadequate defense and no forensic evidence,” said activist and spiritual adviser Sister Helen Prejean regarding Glossip’s arrest and conviction in a 2015 interview with Dr. Phil. Actress and activist Susan Sarandon said, “The justice system is broken.” Watch more in the video above.
