State Senator Calls Decision by Court of Criminal Appeals ‘Judicial Activism Run Amuck’

State Sen. Jonathan Nichols, R-Norman, blasted the Court’s decision to reverse the imposition of the death penalty for Green’s killer, Ricky Ray Malone, in part because Green’s widow referenced God and the Bible.
