• New murder trial ordered over jury instructions involving Adderall-induced psychosis (nondoc.com) — A federal appeals court has ordered a new trial for a man previously convicted of killing his neighbor in Muskogee, after finding jurors were wrongly instructed on how to weigh his Adderall-related psychosis defense.
