After nearly three decades on Oklahoma's death row, Richard Glossip has been granted a new trial by the US Supreme Court. The court found that prosecutors failed to correct false testimony that may have influenced the jury in Glossip's 1998 conviction for the murder of his boss, Barry Van Treese.

Glossip's case has been marred by a series of issues, including doubts about the fairness of his trial. Oklahoma Attorney General Gentner Drummond acknowledged that Glossip did not receive a fair trial and now faces the decision of whether to retry the case.
