Oklahoma is planning to execute a prisoner on death row nearly every month starting in August through 2024 in a move that is likely to cause outrage among opponents of the death penalty.

He said in a statement that the six inmates with set execution dates were trialed for murder. The most recent of these murders was in 2003, while the earliest case dates back to 1993.

In 2021, the state carried out its first execution since the moratorium was put in place, but witnesses said the Oklahoma inmate convulsed and vomited during the capital punishment.

Several men on death row have claims of innocence, and some lawmakers have been looking into the case of Richard Glossip, who was convicted of arranging the murder of a motel owner in 1997.

Oklahoma legislators announced that an independent investigation revealed strong evidence of the innocence of Glossip, who is scheduled for execution in September.
