Death row inmate may get retrial due to claim of 'sex-shaming' prosecutors
Fox News
Oklahoma's only female death row inmate, Brenda Andrew, 61, could get another chance in court due to "sex-shaming" during her trial, per a Tuesday Supreme Court ruling.
She was convicted in the 2001 murder, along with her lover and fellow Sunday school teacher, James Pavatt. Pavatt, who had sold Rob Andrew an $800,000 life insurance policy, had confessed to killing Rob with a friend. He denied that Brenda was involved.

Brenda Andrew told police after the shooting, during which she was shot in the arm, that two masked men attacked her and her husband while he was helping her ignite the pilot light on the furnace in their garage, according to court documents reviewed by Fox News Digital.
Her attorneys argue that evidence about her "plainly irrelevant sexual history" wasn't fair to use in court, where prosecutors called her a "slut puppy" and showed jurors one of her thongs, according to their court filings.
