Advice from OSU SMSC j-grad & Pulitzer finalist @caryaspinwall.bsky.social : Do the work that no one else is willing to do. Every time I take a call when I don't have to, or show up in person when someone else might have just phoned, the universe hands me an even better story.

Death row inmate's attorneys argue open meeting violations in request for stay of execution
Death row inmate Kevin Ray Underwood is seeking a stay of his execution because of recent turmoil of the Oklahoma Pardon and Parole Board.
No OK court or AG opinion says canceling regular meeting requires 10-days notice. Such a requirement would be problematic. Scheduling special meeting isn't the same as rescheduling regular meeting, which needs 10-days notice. kfor.com/news/local/d... @foiok.bsky.social
