In this bonus episode, I’m joined by Amy Kingry and Jennifer Harmon to talk about the recent developments in Oklahoma, including the pardon and parole reform bill that was passed in committee last week, the propaganda campaign by the bill’s opposition, the Oklahoma lethal injection trial, the grand jury investigation into the release of Lawrence Anderson and the recent and abrupt resignation of Kelly Doyle from the Pardon and Parole Board.  We’ll also talk about what that resignation means to the make-up of the board.
