"I am writing to request the transfer of inmate George John Hanson from the US Bureau of Prisons to state custody. He is currently incarcerated at the United States Penitentiary, Pollock, which I understand is a facility within the South-Central Region. Your agency's records indicate that Inmate Hanson is currently assigned the BOP Register Number 08585-062. I request that he be transferred to Lexington Assessment and Reception Center in Lexington, Oklahoma. As Oklahoma's executive authority responsible for law enforcement, I am submitting this request to you pursuant to 18 USC § 3623 and your agency's policies. As you know, the statute creates certain obligations for the Director of the Bureau of Prisons. The Director has delegated that authority to you."

"I have enclosed a certified copy of the judgment of conviction indicating that Inmate Hanson was sentenced to death in Oklahoma state court. On August 31, 1999, Inmate Hanson and his accomplice, Victor Miller, carjacked and kidnapped 77-year-old Mary Bowles from the parking lot of a mall in Tulsa, Oklahoma, before Inmate Hanson eventually executed her with a semi-automatic pistol as she lay on the ground by an isolated dirt pit near Owasso, Oklahoma," writes Oklahoma Attorney General Gentner Drummond in a letter to Bureau of Prisons official Danon Colbert.

"The next execution in Oklahoma is currently scheduled for March 20, 2025. I request that you effectuate Inmate Hanson's transfer to state custody in advance of that date, so that he is eligible for the next available execution date. Please contact me immediately if you are unable to comply with my request," Drummond continued in the letter after bitching about the Biden Administration holding up the transfer for two years. That sure sucks for George John Hanson.
