Clemency denied, Oklahoma prepares to kill

By Karl R. Keys, Esq.

ADVERTISEMENTS
Oklahoma’s Governor has rejected the recommendation of the state’s Pardon and Parole Board that Donald Lee Gilson should be spared.   Mr. Gilson is now slated to be executed Thursday. Donald Lee Gilson is scheduled to receive a lethal injection at the Oklahoma State Penitentiary in McAlester. The 48-year-old originally was scheduled to die May 5th, but the state Pardon and Parole Board recommended that Gov.

Henry granted Gilson a temporary stay while he reviewed the case, but on Monday denied clemency for Gilson.
