SEMINOLE, Okla. ( KFOR ) — A former Oklahoma representative says he’s thankful a woman serving a life sentence for her role in her husband’s 1990 murder is getting a second chance under the Oklahoma Survivors’ Act.
A Seminole County judge ruled Wednesday that Lisa Moss could go free after spending over three decades in prison for conspiracy and first-degree felony murder for the death of her husband, Lanny Mike Moss.
Lisa had returned home from work when she found her husband dead inside, and the room where he was found in, was ravaged. It was later determined by the Chief Medical Examiner that Lanny had two gunshot wounds to his head.

Following the death of her husband, both Lisa and her brother, Richard Lee Wright, were arrested. According to OCCA, Lisa later admitted to speaking to her brother several days prior to the death of her husband, asking him to kill her husband.
Her brother confessed to pulling the trigger. He was also charged with murder in the case.
