A fractured Supreme Court on Tuesday ordered a new trial for Oklahoma death row inmate Richard Glossip, whose appeal drew national attention and support from the state’s conservative attorney general,

The U.S. Supreme Court ruled Oklahoma inmate Richard Glossip must receive a new trial in the 1997 killing of a motel owner in Oklahoma City.
