The United States Supreme Court recently ordered a new trial for Oklahoma death row inmate Richard Glossip, who has been scheduled for death nine times. The School of Law's Innocence Clinic director, Craig Trocino, explains the arguments. Recorded March 27, 2025.

Richard Glossip spent years on Oklahoma's death row for a murder he says he did not commit. He has come within hours of execution and has been served his last meal three times. Richard has filed numerous appeals and professed his innocence for over 20 years. Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss Richard Glossip. He was convicted of murdering his boss and sentenced to death row. The trial revolved around circumstantial evidence and testimony from an alleged accomplice. But many believe Glossip may not be guilty, or at least he deserves a new trial.You can help support the show at patreon.com/truecrimeallthetimeVisit the show's website at truecrimeallthetime.com for contact, merchandise, and donation informationAn Emash Digital productionSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

It's time for part 2 of our Death Penalty series! Since this is a Mormon podcast, we first look into the history of Mormons and the death penalty. Joseph Smith and Brigham Young both ordered assassinations and fostered environments where random acts of violence became inevitable. The State of Deseret, Utah, has a comparatively bloody, theocratic history. Then we take a broader view of religion and capital punishment. After that, we look into the ethics/morals of capital punishment and give you a look at the Innocence project. We wrap by discussing your responses from Survey #1 as well as our own viewpoints on the subject.   Survey #2: After listening to these episodes, we'd like to hear if your insights or opinions have changed and how. https://forms.gle/Vjn48xzWgCWcJR8r8  Show Notes:  Trump v United States: Oral argument on the former president's immunity claim: https://www.c-span.org/program/public-affairs-event/trump-v-united-states-oral-argument-on-the-former-presidents-immunity-claim/640481 23-939 Trump v United States (7/1/2024) https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/23pdf/23-939_e2pg.pdf Account of hearing between circa 3 and 9 June 1837 state of Ohio v Joseph Smith for threatening to take life: https://www.josephsmithpapers.org/paper-summary/account-of-hearing-between-circa-3-and-9-june-1837-state-of-ohio-v-js-for-threatening-to-take-life/1#facts Joseph, in the Elder's Journal, discusses the Kirtland  Bank and Warren Parrish and Grandison Newell's charges against hi: https://bhroberts.org/records/5tcqZf-vSQSfc/joseph_in_the_elders_journal_discusses_the_kirtland_bank_and_warren_parrish_and_grandison_newells_charges_against_him  Orson Hyde, Life lessons learned: https://rsc.byu.edu/vol-3-no-2-2002/orson-hyde-life-lessons-learned  Danites: https://www.josephsmithpapers.org/topic/danites  Danite Manifesto: https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Danite_Manifesto The Danite Constitution and Theories of Democratic Justice in Frontier America: https://scholarsarchive.byu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=5074&context=byusq   Journal of Mormon History Vol 30, No. 2, 2004: https://digitalcommons.usu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1043&context=mormonhistory General Smith's views of the powers and policy of the government of the United States circa 26 January - 7 February 1844: https://www.josephsmithpapers.org/paper-summary/general-smiths-views-of-the-powers-and-policy-of-the-government-of-the-united-states-circa-26-january-7-february-1844/12#full-transcript Journal of Mormon History Vol 33, No 1, 2007: https://digitalcommons.usu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1049&context=mormonhistory   The Coming Storm: The murder of Jesse Thompson Hartley: https://user.xmission.com/~research/mormonpdf/storm.pdf  The wound the never healed: https://www.prestopreservation.com/uploads/5/2/5/3/52533793/morrisite_story_small.pdf  Official position on capital punishment of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints: https://newsroom.churchofjesuschrist.org/official-statement/capital-punishment    The Movement to Abolish Capital Punishment in America 1787-1861: https://www.jstor.org/stable/1847110?read-now=1&seq=8 “Caedite eos.

In this case, the court considered this issue: May Oklahoma carry out the execution of Richard Glossip in light of the prosecutorial misconduct and other errors that affected his conviction and sentencing?The case was decided on February 25, 2025.The Supreme Court held that the prosecution's failure to correct false testimony violated the Due Process Clause under Napue v Illinois. A conviction that relies on false evidence, knowingly allowed by the prosecution, requires reversal if there is a reasonable likelihood the falsehood affected the jury's judgment. Justice Sonia Sotomayor authored the 6-2 majority opinion of the Court.The prosecution allowed its key witness, Justin Sneed, to provide false testimony about his mental health and medical treatment. The new evidence showed that Sneed was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and prescribed lithium, facts that were withheld from the defense. At trial, Sneed falsely claimed he was never treated by a psychiatrist and received lithium mistakenly. This falsehood was material because Sneed's testimony was the only direct evidence implicating Glossip, and impeachment of his credibility could have influenced the jury's decision. The prosecution had prior knowledge of Sneed's mental health treatment and still failed to correct the misstatement when it was made to the jury.Correcting this false testimony would likely have changed the jury's assessment of Sneed's reliability. Additionally, the prosecution's violations extended beyond Napue: it suppressed exculpatory evidence, interfered with witness testimony, and allowed destruction of key physical evidence. Given these cumulative errors and their impact on the fairness of the trial, Glossip is entitled to a new trial. The Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals' rejection of the attorney general's confession of error was based on a misapplication of federal law.Justice Neil Gorsuch did not participate in the consideration or decision of the case.The opinion is presented here in its entirety, but with citations omitted.

It took decades for death row inmate Richard Glossip to convince Oklahomans and, later, the U.S. Supreme Court that he deserved a new trial. Glossip is just one of many inmates who say they faced convictions for crimes they did not commit. Read about enough of these cases, and you'll be asking, “Is innocence enough?”For the wrongfully convicted, tearful reunions and proclamations of justice from the courthouse steps only come after an arduous exoneration process paved with years of litigation.The average person wrongfully convicted loses a decade of their life behind bars, learning the legal system and advocating for their innocence. As the number of exonerations rise annually, there is still no way to track how many people have suffered unjust convictions.In the third episode of our fifth season, we journey through the highs and lows of post-conviction purgatory for people claiming innocence, from one Oklahoma man's hand-written petitions to a New York man who waited nearly two decades for evidence to emerge for a lawyer to take his case.Special guests:Andrea Miller, legal director of the Oklahoma Innocence ProjectMaurice Possley, researcher at the National Registry of ExonerationsJustin Brooks, co-founder of the California Innocence ProjectLaneshia Jordan, Texas attorneyJeffrey Deskovic, exoneree and attorneyMichael Grant, exoneree and assistant director of The Liberation FoundationRetired U.S. Magistrate Judge Kristen MixCarl Wyatt, Oklahoma inmate asserting innocenceThis episode was produced by Kirk McDaniel.

This Day in Legal History: Woodrow Wilson Signs Grand Canyon National Park ActOn February 26, 1919, President Woodrow Wilson signed the Grand Canyon National Park Act, officially designating the Grand Canyon as a national park. This landmark decision aimed to preserve the canyon's breathtaking landscapes, unique geological formations, and rich biodiversity for future generations. Prior to its national park status, the Grand Canyon had been a federally protected reserve, but conservationists pushed for stronger protections. The designation marked a significant victory for the early environmental movement, ensuring that the canyon would be safeguarded from mining, logging, and other commercial exploitation.The Grand Canyon, carved over millions of years by the Colorado River, is one of the world's most iconic natural wonders. Its layered rock formations offer a window into Earth's geological history, dating back nearly two billion years. Beyond its scientific significance, the canyon holds deep cultural importance for Indigenous tribes, including the Havasupai, Hopi, and Navajo, who have lived in and around the area for centuries. The national park designation helped protect these cultural and historical sites, though it also led to conflicts over land rights.The creation of Grand Canyon National Park was part of a broader movement in the early 20th century to protect America's natural landscapes. This movement, championed by figures like President Theodore Roosevelt, laid the foundation for the modern National Park System. Today, Grand Canyon National Park attracts millions of visitors annually, serving as a testament to the enduring importance of conservation efforts.President Donald Trump has ordered the suspension of security clearances and government contracts for the law firm Covington & Burling due to its legal assistance to special counsel Jack Smith. In a memo signed in the Oval Office, Trump accused law firms of using pro bono work to obstruct the government. The directive specifically targets Peter Koski, a Covington partner, and calls for a review of the firm's federal contracts.  Smith recently disclosed that Covington provided him with $140,000 in pro bono legal services as he faces government scrutiny. Covington stated that it represents Smith in a personal capacity and will continue to defend his interests. Legal experts note that security clearances are crucial for private attorneys handling national security matters.  Trump, who has been indicted in two cases led by Smith, referred to the order as the "Deranged Jack Smith signing" and mocked the prosecutor after signing the memo.Trump Targets Covington Security, Contracts Over Work With SmithThe U.S. Supreme Court has ordered a new trial for Oklahoma death row inmate Richard Glossip, ruling that prosecutorial misconduct violated his constitutional rights. In a rare win for a capital defendant, two conservative justices joined the court's three liberals to overturn Glossip's conviction. Oklahoma's Republican attorney general had also acknowledged errors in the case, including prosecutors withholding evidence and failing to correct false testimony.  Glossip was convicted for allegedly orchestrating the 1997 murder of his boss, Barry Van Treese, though the actual killer, Justin Sneed, was the state's key witness. Newly disclosed documents revealed that Sneed had considered recanting, was coached by prosecutors, and lied about his mental health history. Writing for the majority, Justice Sonia Sotomayor stated that correcting Sneed's false testimony would have significantly damaged his credibility.  Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Brett Kavanaugh joined the liberal justices in the ruling, while Justice Amy Coney Barrett partially agreed but wanted the state court to decide if a new trial was warranted. Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito dissented, arguing the case should have been left to Oklahoma courts. Glossip's execution had been blocked nine times before, and his attorney emphasized the ruling as a crucial step toward justice. It remains uncertain whether Oklahoma will retry the case or pursue the death penalty again.Justices Order New Trial in Rare Win for Death Row Inmate (2)A U.S. judge has extended an order blocking President Donald Trump's administration from enforcing a sweeping freeze on federal funding, citing concerns that the policy could be reinstated. U.S. District Judge Loren AliKhan ruled that despite the administration's withdrawal of an initial memo pausing grants and loans, statements from White House officials suggested the freeze was still in effect.  The funding pause, announced in January, aimed to review federal financial assistance programs for compliance with Trump's executive orders, including those ending diversity initiatives and pausing climate-related projects. Nonprofits and small business groups sued, arguing the freeze would cause widespread harm.  AliKhan criticized the policy as legally baseless and impractical, saying it would either halt up to $3 trillion in spending overnight or force agencies to review all grants within a day. She called the administration's actions “irrational” and warned of a potential national crisis. The ruling prevents the government from reimposing the freeze under a different name, marking a legal setback for Trump's efforts to reshape federal spending priorities.Trump blocked from imposing sweeping federal funding freeze | ReutersIn my weekly Bloomberg Tax column, I examine Washington State's new data broker tax, a well-intended but ultimately insufficient approach to curbing exploitative data practices. The legislation treats consumer data like a natural resource, imposing a severance tax on its collection. However, this framework fails to address the real issue: long-term data retention and reuse.  A more effective solution would be a retention tax, which would discourage firms from hoarding personal data indefinitely. Under the current bill, companies pay a tiered tax based on the number of residents whose data they collect. While this sounds like a fair approach, it risks consolidating data power in the hands of large platforms that can absorb the tax and continue selling consumer information without restriction. Worse, the tax may encourage firms to store data longer, giving it an artificial market value that promotes hoarding rather than limiting collection.  Unlike oil or minerals, personal data is not depleted upon use—it can be endlessly repackaged and resold. A retention tax would align economic incentives with privacy concerns, forcing firms to justify prolonged data storage and pay accordingly. Without it, Washington's proposal does little to curb long-term privacy risks and may ultimately entrench the very data exploitation it seeks to prevent.Washington's Data Broker Tax Is a Promising but Inadequate Move This is a public episode.

The United States Supreme Court on Tuesday directed Oklahoma to vacate the murder conviction of Richard Glossip, the state's most famous death row inmate, finding that prosecutors violated Glossip's civil rights during his trial more than 20 years ago. “Glossip is entitled to a new trial,” Justice Sonia Sotomayor wrote in the majority opinion for five justices. She was joined by Chief Justice John Roberts, and Justices Elena Kagan, Brett Kavanaugh, Kentaji Brown and Amy Comey Barrett, who dissented in part. Glossip has spent 26 years on death row, had two trials, nine execution dates and three last meals. Tuesday's ruling came as Oklahoma prepares to execute its first inmate of the year in March, the 16th since the state resumed executions in 2021.On today's podcast, I'm joined by former Republican lawmaker Kevin McDugle. In his time in the Legislature, McDugle advocated for Glossip, as well as for various reforms to Oklahoma's use of the death penalty.This is Listen Frontier, a podcast exploring the investigative journalism of the Frontier and featuring conversations with those on the frontlines of Oklahoma's most important stories.

The case is about Richard Glossip who has been sentenced to the death penalty despite the prosecution hiding information about a key witness' mental health and that same witness admitting that he lied on the stand.

In this episode, Paul Cassell of the University of Utah and Andrea Miller of the Oklahoma Innocence Project join Jeffrey Rosen to recap the oral arguments and debate whether or not Glossip's conviction should stand in light of newly revealed documents that allegedly suggest prosecutorial misconduct.    Resources:  Glossip v.

“Prosecutors elicited perjury and a man's gonna go to his death. We can't allow that to happen.” – Paul Clement, October 9th, 2024.  This week the US Supreme Court heard arguments in the latest chapter in the complex and prolonged legal battle involving Richard Glossip, who has been on Oklahoma's death row since his conviction for a 1997 murder-for-hire. Following two independent investigations into allegations of prosecutorial misconduct, suppression of material evidence, and a history of inadequate defense counsel, Oklahoma's Attorney General took the bold step of confessing to constitutional error in the case and supporting a new trial. But Oklahoma's State Supreme Court is pressing on with Glossip's execution, and so, on Wednesday morning, the High Court heard a case long on the appearance of process and short on actual justice. Don Knight, Richard Glossip's attorney of almost 10 years, provides insights into the flawed process, and the shocking revelations from newly discovered evidence boxes. This case highlights broader questions about justice, fairness, and trust in the American legal system…. Leading us to an update from the latest inductee to the Lady Justice Hall of Fame – Amicus listener Barbara Hausman-Smith, and her one-woman protest at One First Street. Listen to the end of the show to find out what links this 76-year-old grandmother from Maine to the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg and SCOTUS's landmark decision to legalize equal marriage in Obergefell in 2015.  Want more Amicus?

Oklahoma death row inmate Richard Glossip appears likely to achieve a rare victory at the Supreme Court despite a conservative majority that's often hostile to capital defendants.  One factor setting Glossip's case apart from others is that the state's Republican attorney general sided with him in his bid for a new trial. But the fact that it's still a question whether Glossip will prevail after arguments Oct. 9 shows the steep climb capital defendants have a the Supreme Court. Cases and Controversies hosts Kimberly Robinson and Greg Stohr run through the arguments and the hurdles that Glossip must clear. Do you have feedback on this episode of Cases and Controversies?

In a momentous turn of events, Oklahoma is squaring off against its top criminal court at the Supreme Court in a case that has captured national attention. The case involves Richard Glossip, a man who has had nine execution dates set over the years. Glossip has even eaten what was meant to be his last meal three times. He was tried twice and has had multiple appeals, making his case one of the most contentious legal battles in recent times. The public interest has grown considerably, with people divided on the corners of law, justice, and human rights.Among the influential figures closely following this curious case are Donald Trump and Jack Smith. These two, while known for their separate endeavors, share a common interest in the fluctuating destiny of Richard Glossip.Donald Trump, the former president of the United States, has never been one to shy away from the spotlight, and this instance is no different. He has been watching the development of events with a hawk-eye and offering his vantage points on social media and interviews. Despite his background in enterprise and politics, Trump's commentary on Glossip's case echoes a sentiment that transcends his usual rhetoric, evidencing a significant concern for the judicial proceedings happening in Oklahoma. Meanwhile, Jack Smith, an esteemed journalist known for his incisive reporting, has been doggedly following the Richard Glossip case, often providing unique insights on his news platform. Smith, known for his unbiased, factual reporting, presents a stark contrast to the controversial figure of Trump. Both figures, however, share a vested interest in this high-profile case.Smith has been diligent in unraveling the complexities of the case. His detailed analysis and regular updates have attracted a wide audience, both domestically and internationally, keen to understand the particulars of this case. His coverage has included in-depth evaluations of the numerous court hearings and appeals, alongside interviews with key legal experts, thereby providing a comprehensive overview of the events as they unfold.In comparison, Donald Trump, with his characteristic flamboyance, has taken a more direct approach. He has consistently voiced his opinions, often taking to Twitter to express his viewpoints. Though these may not resonate with everyone, they undoubtedly stoke public discussion and keep the case in the public eye.The saga of the legal upheaval in Oklahoma, with Richard Glossip at its heart, is far from over. As the tension builds, figures like Donald Trump and Jack Smith continue to play a vital role in continuing the discourse. Their interest, their analyses keep the public gaze fixated on what can be seen as a shifting landscape of justice in America.

This Day in Legal History: Che Guevara ExecutedOn October 9, 1967, Ernesto "Che" Guevara, a prominent figure in revolutionary movements across Latin America, was executed by Bolivian forces after being captured during a failed guerrilla campaign. Guevara was a key leader in the Cuban Revolution and sought to spread Marxist insurgencies throughout Latin America, hoping to ignite similar revolutions. His execution without a trial, carried out with the assistance of the CIA, became a controversial event, raising questions about the legal treatment of non-state actors under international law.Che Guevara's death highlighted the evolving legal frameworks for dealing with insurgencies, guerrilla warfare, and the rights of captured combatants. At the time, international law, including the Geneva Conventions, offered limited protection to guerrilla fighters, whose status as non-traditional combatants fell outside of established norms for prisoners of war. The Bolivian government's decision to execute Guevara without due process sparked widespread condemnation and intensified debates on the legality of such actions.The legacy of Che Guevara's execution extended far beyond his death, as it became a symbol of the broader struggles for political justice, human rights, and the use of state power to suppress insurgencies. His killing underscored the need for clearer international legal standards governing the treatment of insurgents, contributing to later discussions on how to apply humanitarian law to non-state actors and revolutionaries.The U.S. government may seek to force Google to break up parts of its business, such as its Chrome browser and Android operating system, to address what it argues is an illegal monopoly in online search. A judge found in August that Google's dominance—processing 90% of U.S. searches—violates antitrust laws. The Justice Department's proposed remedies aim to end Google's control over search distribution and prevent its dominance from expanding into artificial intelligence (AI). One suggestion is to stop Google from making billion-dollar payments to device manufacturers like Apple to have its search engine pre-installed as the default. Google plans to appeal, calling the proposals radical, and arguing that users choose its search engine for its quality. The company also claims it faces competition from platforms like Amazon. Additionally, a recent court ruling requires Google to allow more competition in its app store. The Justice Department's more detailed proposal will be submitted in November, and Google can respond by December.The antitrust ruling against Google could have significant consequences for smaller companies like Mozilla, which heavily relies on Google's payments to make its Firefox browser financially viable. If Google is forced to stop paying for default search positions, Mozilla could lose a substantial portion of its revenue—more than $500 million annually—putting its future in jeopardy. This would limit Mozilla's ability to compete with larger players like Apple and Microsoft, and could further consolidate market power in the hands of Big Tech.US considers breakup of Google in landmark search case | ReutersWill Google's historic monopoly lawsuit be the death knell for Mozilla and Firefox? | FortuneThe U.S. Supreme Court will hear arguments in the case of Oklahoma death row inmate Richard Glossip, who is seeking to have his conviction overturned for a 1997 murder-for-hire. Glossip, now 61, was convicted of paying Justin Sneed to kill Barry Van Treese, the owner of the motel where Glossip worked. Sneed, who confessed to the murder, testified against Glossip in exchange for avoiding the death penalty. Glossip admits to helping cover up the crime but denies commissioning the murder. Newly uncovered evidence suggests that prosecutors withheld information that could have helped Glossip's defense. Oklahoma's Attorney General, Gentner Drummond, now supports Glossip's appeal, acknowledging flaws in the case, though he still believes Glossip should face some punishment. Due to the attorney general's stance, the Supreme Court appointed an outside lawyer to defend the conviction. The justices are expected to rule by June 2025.US Supreme Court to weigh appeal by Oklahoma death row inmate Glossip | ReutersThe U.S. Supreme Court is signaling support for President Biden's regulation of "ghost guns," or build-at-home firearm kits, by likely allowing the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) to regulate these kits as firearms. The rule, introduced in 2022, would require serial numbers, background checks, and record-keeping for gun kits, treating them like fully assembled guns. Challengers, including gun-rights advocates, argue that the rule expands beyond the authority granted by the 1968 Gun Control Act. However, several justices, including Chief Justice Roberts and Justice Barrett, expressed skepticism about the challengers' claims, noting how easily kits can be turned into functioning firearms. The case echoes past legal battles over firearms regulation, such as the one involving bump stocks, and centers on the scope of the ATF's power.Supreme Court Signals Backing for Biden's ‘Ghost Gun' Rule (1) This is a public episode.

This marked the formal division of Germany into two separate states after World War II. The creation of East Germany came in response to the formation of the Federal Republic of Germany (West Germany) earlier that year, in May 1949. Backed by the Soviet Union, the GDR was a socialist state governed by the Socialist Unity Party (SED), and its formation signaled the deepening divide between the Eastern and Western blocs during the Cold War.East Germany's legal and political structure was heavily influenced by Soviet-style socialism, with a focus on state control over the economy and a one-party system that suppressed political opposition. The GDR also became notorious for its secret police, the Stasi, which played a significant role in monitoring and controlling the population. Over time, East Germany built the Berlin Wall in 1961, a physical symbol of the broader ideological and geopolitical divisions of the Cold War.The existence of two Germanys, one capitalist and the other socialist, persisted for 41 years until the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, leading to German reunification in 1990. The legal creation of East Germany on this day stands as a key moment in the Cold War era, illustrating the legal and ideological rift that shaped post-war Europe.The U.S. Supreme Court begins its new term with a docket of significant cases, including disputes over guns, transgender rights, workplace discrimination, and online pornography. After a busy summer of emergency decisions, the Court's first case focuses on the Biden administration's appeal regarding "ghost guns," which can be purchased online and assembled without traceable serial numbers. Another key case involves Oklahoma death row inmate Richard Glossip, who seeks a new trial amid questions about his conviction. Additional cases involve Tennessee's ban on gender-affirming care for minors, workplace discrimination claims brought by "majority background" workers, and the authority of federal agencies like the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and FDA. The Court also faces potential involvement in election disputes surrounding the 2024 presidential race. Despite its heavy docket, the shadow of ethical controversies and a proposal for Supreme Court reforms loom over the term.Trump's Election Bid Is a Wild Card as Supreme Court Term OpensUS Supreme Court kicks off new term with important cases ahead | ReutersThe U.S. legal services sector added 1,600 jobs in September 2024, ending a four-month decline, according to the Labor Department.

The fast-food chain alleges that the suppliers colluded to fix and raise beef prices by reducing the supply of slaughter-ready cattle, which artificially elevated prices. The alleged conspiracy, which began in 2015, was aimed at recovering profit margins impacted by years of drought. McDonald's claims that the suppliers limited production by closing plants and restraining market supply. The lawsuit seeks a declaratory judgment, damages three times the amount of losses sustained, and a permanent injunction to prevent future collusion. The U.S. Department of Justice had already investigated price-fixing in 2020, and testimonies from cattle ranchers have reportedly confirmed the conspiracy. During this period, the suppliers saw record profits, with JBS reporting a significant revenue increase between 2014 and 2021.McDonald's Says Tyson and Other Suppliers Fixed Beef Prices This is a public episode.

It's October, so you know what that means ... spooky season is finally here! And with it, the Supreme Court is back in session, complete with ghosts of the gun variety.In this year's SCOTUS preview, we bring you the cases you need to know. The court will weigh in on a Biden administration rule to redefine firearms to address the public safety risk of ghost guns in America. We delve into the complexities and legal arguments that ignited a heated debate with gun manufacturers and the NRA over what truly constitutes a firearm.The court will also hear about the death penalty case of Richard Glossip, who has faced the specter of execution nine times for a crime he claims he didn't commit. From the dubious testimony of the actual murderer to the systemic failures that have kept Glossip on death row, the case has led even unlikely proponents to question the mechanics of our justice system.And we tackle Tennessee's controversial SB1 law, which bans gender-affirming care for transgender minors. This controversial legislation pits the state's focus on the experimental nature of such treatments against the medical community's endorsement of their necessity. This legal battle doesn't just impact Tennessee; it could reshape the landscape for transgender rights nationwide.Special guests:Don Knight, Richard Glossip's attorneyRobert Dunham, director at the Death Penalty Policy Project and special counsel at Phillips BlackOklahoma state Representative Justin HumphreySasha Buchert, director of the Non-Binary and Transgender Rights Project at Lambda LegalEric Tirschwell, executive director of Everytown LawCody Wilson, director of Defense DistributedKevin Tobia, a professor of law and philosophy at GeorgetownErin Erhardt, litigation counsel at the National Rifle AssociationThis episode was produced by Kirk McDaniel.

Richard Glossip has been on death row for 26 years and stared down nine execution dates. The 1997 killing that sent him to death row has been investigated numerous times and the actual killer—who brutally bludgeoned a motel owner with a baseball bat—has even sought to recant his testimony against Glossip. Over the decades, anti-death penalty activists and a growing number of lawmakers from both sides of the aisle have spoken out to save Richard Glossip. But now his case is in the Supreme Court's hands. Guests:  Liliana Segura, investigative journalist at The Intercept focused on prisons and harsh sentencing.
