"Attorneys for an Oklahoma death row inmate who won a two-week reprieve from his scheduled execution are working on two legal fronts in an effort to save their client's life.  While one team of lawyers for Richard Glossip is trying to convince a state appeals court that their client is innocent, another group of public defenders is in federal court again challenging the use of a controversial sedative as part of a three-drug formula that will be used to kill him.  Glossip, 52, was just hours away from being executed Wednesday when the Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals ordered his execution halted for two weeks so they could have time to review a lengthy legal filing his lawyers had filed a day earlier. Glossip's attorneys want the court to grant an evidentiary hearing so they can call witnesses and go over new facts that they claim "seriously call into question the reliability of Mr. Glossip's conviction and death sentence."  So far the court has only delayed Glossip's execution until Sept. 30 so they can have time to review the last-minute filing and have not agreed to grant a hearing......... Among the new evidence Glossip's attorneys presented is a signed affidavit from another inmate, Michael Scott, who claims he heard Sneed say "he set Richard Glossip up, and that Richard Glossip didn't do anything." The Oklahoman reported Saturday that Scott, according to a prisons system document, once labeled himself a habitual liar."
