Oklahoma executes man for 2001 double murder claimed as self-defense

Phillip Dean Hancock, sentenced to death for the 2001 murders of Robert Jett Jr. and James Lynch, was executed by lethal injection at the Oklahoma State Penitentiary. Despite the Oklahoma Pardon and Parole Board recommending clemency, Governor Kevin Stitt denied it, drawing criticism. Hancock claimed self-defense in the incident that unfolded at Jett's home. The prosecution argued that Hancock's inconsistent accounts and testimony not aligning with physical evidence undermined his claim.
