## Statement

Fern L. Smith Oklahoma Bar # 8347

Newly discovered evidence in "Box 8" disclosed to defense in 2023 contained January 14, 2003 Notes from Fern L. Smith documented that State witness Justin Sneed did not want to testify in the re-trial of Richard Glossip. The notes were from Fern Smith, documenting her conversation with Ginia Walker (Justin Sneed's attorney). Neither Smith, nor [Connie Smothermon](https://giglio-bradylist.com/individual/connie-%20smothermon), disclosed to Glossip's defense team that their star witness wanted to recant and/or renegotiate his plea agreement terms in exchange for testimony.
