Broken Supreme Court on Tuesday I ordered a new trial to remove Oklahoma for timeThe resumption of national interest and support from the conservative public prosecutor in the state, in light of the allegations that the state withheld evidence related to its main witness.
This ruling is a major victory for Glossip, whose condemnation was asked in 1998 by arranging the killing of Barry Van Trees, decisively, the state prosecutor after new evidence appeared in recent years.
The ruling represents an unusual development in the legal epic surrounding Glossip, which was scheduled to be implemented nine times and eaten its last meal only three times to keep his execution.
Judge Sonia Sotomoor wrote to the majority: “We conclude that the claim violated its constitutional commitment to correcting the wrong certificate,” Judge Sonia Sotomoor wrote to the majority.
In the midst of the appeal, the general prosecutors participating in the Glossip trial on Gustin Sinide, the man who killed Van Trez at Bisbul’s beater in a hotel. Although both sides agree that Sneed was already killed by Van Trez, Glossip was accused of organizing killing.
Glossip’s condemnation was based on a Sneed certificate, but after years of Glossip’s condemnation, the state revealed evidence that Sneed was treated for a serious psychological state.

Five of the judges stood with Glossip on a new experience request. Two conservative judges, Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alto. The conservative judge, Amy Kony Barrett, had brought the case to the minimum court for further consideration.
Thomas, who wrote in an opposition to which ALEO joined, argued the court’s decision, “imagining a constitutional violation as none of them occurred, and abandons the basic principles that govern” how federal courts review the decisions of the state court.
During the oral arguments in October, it seemed that many members of the court were confused from the small record surrounding the notes, including liberal justice, Kitanji Brown Jackson, who said at some point, “I understand that there was no decision of the court on any of these facts. , “And Aleto, who described the notes as” hidden. ”
