Supreme Court grants stay of execution for Oklahoma man with multiple 'last meals'
TL;DR
The US Supreme Court has halted the execution of Richard Glossip, an Oklahoma man who has been on death row for over two decades and has faced multiple execution dates. The decision came after the state's attorney general said his life should be spared. Glossip has been involved in a long-standing battle to live after he was incarcerated accused of a 1997 murder-for-hire plot. The high court put the execution on hold indefinitely after Oklahoma's attorney general said Glossip should not be killed later this month.
