OKLAHOMA CITY – Rep. Justin Humphrey, R-Lane, is one of the speakers listed for Wrongful Conviction Day ceremonies at the Oklahoma State Capitol, Oct. 2.

The event is scheduled to start at 10 a.m. on the south plaza with opening remarks by Emily Barnes, founder of Oklahoma City-based Hooked on Justice, followed by Humphrey.

Other speakers include J'Shawna Smith with the Julius Jones Institute and Antoinette Jones, the sister of Julius Jones. Julius Jones was granted clemency from death row by Gov. Kevin Stitt in 2021 but remains incarcerated on a life-without-parole sentence for a murder conviction. He, his family and supporters say he was wrongfully convicted and is innocent of the crime.

Former Sen. Connie Johnson will speak with Perry Lott, who was exonerated in 2023 after serving 30 years of a 350-year sentence.

Brenda Golden, an attorney and legal advisor for Winston Walters also will speak, as will Stephanie Davis, an advocate for her husband Jeffrey Davis. Supporters say both men were wrongfully convicted.

Jake Chappell will play a Native American drum during the event.

The master of ceremonies is Deon Devon Osborne, host of the In Depth with Deon podcast.
