OK HB2266

Changes execution method in Oklahoma from lethal injection to administration of lethal drug or drugs until death is pronounced by a licensed physician, with electrocution and firing squad as alternative methods if previous methods are ruled unconstitutional.

Allows immediate family members of deceased victims (18 years or older) to witness executions in person or via closed-circuit television, and permits surviving victims to view executions with approval of the Department of Corrections director and warden.

Makes the identity of all persons who participate in or administer executions confidential and not subject to discovery in civil or criminal proceedings.

Allows courts to appoint legal representation for indigent defendants not in custody, with costs paid from local court funds rather than the Indigent Defense System.

Adds exception to criminal discovery requirements by exempting law enforcement officers certified by the Council on Law Enforcement Education and Training from disclosure of OSBI rap sheets, home addresses, home telephone numbers, dates of birth, and social security numbers.
