Death sentence commuted for Oklahoma convict Holford
Clyde Holford, a third term convict, had his death sentence changed to life imprisonment by the state criminal court of appeals. Holford, 26, murdered fellow prisoner Edward De Lano in the McAlester prison laundry on October 2, 1933, by stabbing and crushing his head. The court cited conflicting testimony from key prosecution witnesses and noted clemency efforts by Jim Tully, Walter Winchell, and Judge Ben B. Lindsey, which led to Governor Marland’s dismissal of prior appeals as “seb sisters.”
