Glossip granted $500K bail as retrial looms after decades in prison

An Oklahoma judge approved a $500,000 bail for former death row inmate Richard Glossip, who has been imprisoned since his 1998 conviction in a murder-for-hire plot. Glossip’s conviction and death sentence were overturned by the Supreme Court in February 2025, and he now awaits a retrial. If released on bond, he would wear a GPS ankle monitor, observe a 10 p.m.–7 a.m. curfew, and have no contact with witnesses. He previously faced multiple execution dates and even survived three last meals, marking the potential end of nearly 30 years behind bars.

Australia’s most decorated SAS veteran released on bail in historic war crimes case

Ben Roberts-Smith, Australia’s most decorated living soldier, has been granted bail on five murder charges related to alleged killings of unarmed Afghan detainees between 2009 and 2012. He denies the charges. Bail conditions include reporting to police three times weekly, surrendering his passport, providing access to electronic devices, and a A$250,000 surety with travel restrictions; he faces the possibility of years in custody before a trial due to the case’s complexity and sensitive information. The matter is considered unprecedented in Australia, and the civil defamation case from 2023 found substantial truth to some allegations against him.
