Richard Glossip granted bond

Former death row inmate Richard Glossip has been granted bond by an Oklahoma judge, clearing the way for his release after nearly 30 years in prison.

Glossip is awaiting a new trial for a 1997 killing after the U.S. Supreme Court overturned his conviction.

The $500,000 bond was reportedly posted with the assistance of celebrity advocate Kim Kardashian, who has long championed his case.

Glossip will be allowed to live at home with his wife under strict conditions while his legal team prepares for the upcoming proceedings.

The case has become a focal point for critics of the death penalty and has drawn international attention to the complexities of the American justice system.
