James Coddington, 50, was executed by lethal injection at 10:16 a.m. on August 25, 2022, in the Oklahoma State Penitentiary.
Coddington faced execution after the murder of Albert Troy Hale, a friend and co-worker, during a cocaine binge and robbery spree in 1997.
The Oklahoma Pardon and Parole Board voted 3-2 on Aug. 3 to recommend clemency after Coddington made an emotional apology and spoke about how he has changed. But Gov. Kevin Stitt refused to commute the sentence of the death row inmate.
