A former Oklahoma death row inmate is set to face a new trial for a murder that occurred in 1997. The inmate, who spent nearly three decades in prison, was previously convicted of killing his former boss, a motel owner. The case took a significant turn when the Supreme Court overturned the inmate's conviction in 2025.

Following this decision, a new trial was scheduled by a state judge. Further details about the case and the upcoming trial are available from KPRC 2 in Tomball, Texas.
