What would happen if Michael Glossip is executed?

If Glossip were to be executed, he may experience an excruciating death. In 1990, Oklahoma began using an execution method that relied on the intravenous injection of a three-drug cocktail: sodium thiopental, a barbiturate that induces a coma like state, followed by a paralytic agent, and finally a drug to stop the heart, causing death.

What happens now that Glossip has been served with his death warrant?

The first time this happened, in 2014, Glossip went on a 22-day hunger strike in protest.

What did Reed Smith say about Glossip's case?

According to an application for a post-conviction relief filed Friday, Glossip referred to an independent report conducted by international law firm Reed Smith and released in June, saying a "sloppy and truncated" police investigation and destroyed evidence resulted in Glossip's sentencing.
