OKLAHOMA – A double execution hasn’t taken place in Oklahoma since 1937 and unless the Governor or the courts intervene Clayton Lockett will be put to death at 6 o’clock in the evening and Charles Lockett will follow two hours later.
The Oklahoma Coalition to Abolish the Death Penalty is hoping a special protest will speak to those who have the power to stop the executions before it’s too late.
Member Lydia Polley doesn’t deny the crimes Lockett and Warner committed are heinous but she still thinks the men deserve to know who is supplying the drugs that will ultimately kill them.
“It’s our tax dollars, it’s their killing in our names. We deserve to know. Secret government government pulled off in secret is undemocratic and it’s bad government,” says Polley.
