I joined the staff of The Frontier about a month ago to cover the Oklahoma criminal justice system and I want to thank the current and future donors who are making my work possible.  In my first month, I’ve already written about death row inmate Richard Glossip’s innocence claim and a hearing at the Oklahoma Capitol to examine the state’s death penalty. I also covered death row inmate Phillip Hancock’s clemency hearing at the Oklahoma Pardon and Parole Board. As 2023 comes to a close, thank you for donating and continuing to trust The Frontier with telling your story and providing independent, local journalism for Oklahoma. -Ashlynd Huffman  - The Frontier | 401 South Boston Avenue | Suite 240 | Tulsa, OK, 74103 Update Subscription   Unsubscribe   Donate
