2024 Year in Review: Looking back in Oklahoma's year in politics
SUMMARY: KOCO served as a key election night headquarters in 2024, covering the June primary, August runoff, and November general election. Donald Trump was re-elected as president, winning every county in Oklahoma. The fierce Republican primary battle between Tom Cole and newcomer Paul Bondar stood out, with Bondar losing significantly despite heavy spending on ads. Oklahoma made headlines by reintroducing the Bible in classrooms and eliminating the state grocery tax, a bipartisan success for Governor Kevin Stitt. The state also mourned former Senator Jim Inhofe’s passing, and KOCO committed to thorough coverage of various candidates and issues in upcoming elections.

Victim’s family reacts to Oklahoma child killer’s execution
SUMMARY: Jamie Rose Bolin’s family spoke after her killer, Kevin Underwood, was executed. Her sister expressed that while the execution wouldn’t bring Jamie back, it allows the healing process to begin. Underwood’s execution was swift, and District Attorney Greg Mashburn said justice was served, giving the family peace to focus on remembering Jamie’s joy. After nearly 20 years of appeals, prosecutors recounted Underwood’s brutal crime of hitting Bolin with a cutting board and strangling her. Despite opposition from anti-death penalty groups, Mashburn and the jury maintained that Underwood’s actions warranted the death penalty.
