Gollisps Stay Denied by Us Supreme court.


The U.S. Supreme Court denied a stay of execution for Richard Glossip.
Glossip is scheduled to be executed Wednesday for  the death of his boss in the 90s.
Glossip's attorneys say an unreliable witness was the key to the case against Glossip. His lawyers said police pressured co-defendant Justin Sneed to implicate him.
Oklahoma's Court of Criminal Appeals ruled 3-2 Monday that new evidence brought by Glossip's lawyers merely repeats arguments raised in earlier appeals. 

Before the U.S. Supreme Court, Glossip's lawyers said Oklahoma should not be allowed to "summarily ... execute" an inmate while ignoring new evidence. For the execution to be halted five of the nine justices would have to agree. 
Glossip's execution is now scheduled for September 30. A bomb threat was called in if the execution goes on as planned, McAlester police are working with the Department of Corrections to look into it, but the execution is still scheduled.
