Oklahoma Death Row inmate John Hanson to seek clemency

Oklahoma Death Row inmate John Hanson will stand before the State Pardon and Parole Board on Wednesday to ask for clemency.

Hanson was convicted of kidnapping and killing Mary Bowles after carjacking her in the parking lot of a Tulsa mall.

Earlier this year, Hanson was moved back to Oklahoma from a federal prison in Louisiana to face the death penalty.
