Two northeast Oklahoma representatives were among more than 70 legislators who have attempted to have prisoners, including murderers, moved from one prison to another to accommodate their needs or the needs of their families, according to a page-one investigation in the Sunday Daily Oklahoman.
Among those named in the report were Joe Eddins, D-Vinita, and Larry Glenn, D-Miami.
Numerous reasons were offered for the transfers, but one unbelievable one came from a request by a governor's aide who asked if a prisoner could be moved to another prison where needlepoint was offered.
