WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court is returning to the case of Richard Glossip, who has spent most of the past quarter century on Oklahoma’s death row for a murder he says he did not commit. In a rare alliance, lawyers for Glossip and the state will argue Wednesday that the justices should overturn Glossip’s conviction and death sentence because he did not get a fair trial. [time-brightcove not-tgx=”true”] The victim’s relatives have told the high court that they want to see Glossip executed. Glossip has always maintained his innocence in the 1997 killing in Oklahoma City of his former boss, motel owner Barry Van Treese, in what prosecutors have alleged was a murder-for-hire scheme. Another man, Justin Sneed, admitted robbing Van Treese and beating him to death with a baseball bat but testified he only did so after Glossip promised to pay him $10,000.
