When lawyers for Richard Glossip argue before the U.S. Supreme Court on Wednesday to vacate his conviction for a 1997 murder, the Oklahoma death row inmate will have an unlikely ally: Gentner Drummond, the state's Republican attorney general.

"If he is executed, I believe that it will be a travesty of justice," Drummond said in an interview.
The men were arrested by federal agents in June on immigration charges.
