OK State Sen. Randy Brogdon again questioned AG Drew Edmondson’s motives surrounding the case of the Oklahoma 3 in a press release yesterday.

Brogdon expressed wonder at why the AG had quietly dismissed the grand jury’s indictment of the Oklahoma 3, while planning to re-issue indictments of the three from his office.

“Amazingly, there was no news coverage when the Attorney General quietly dismissed his once trumpeted indictment,” said Brogdon. “Attorney General Edmondson needs to come clean. Is there something so wrong with his grand jury process or with the indictments themselves that he has to re-issue the indictments from his office after dismissing them from the grand jury?”

Calling the actions of the Attorney General an embarrassment to the state, Brogdon urged Edmondson to end his “politically motivated” prosecution.

“Drew Edmondson and this outrageous prosecution are an embarrassment to the state,” Brogdon said, referring to recent negative coverage of the indictments in the national media. “His politically motivated decision to prosecute three innocent people has cast the state in a negative light and has been criticized by publications read throughout the nation and world.”
