During his closing argument in the 2004 murder trial of Brenda Andrew in Oklahoma, a prosecutor dangled her thong underwear before the jury. She had packed the undergarment for a trip to Mexico a few days after her estranged husband was killed. The prosecutor, Gayland Gieger, said the item was strong evidence that Ms. Andrew had murdered her husband. The jury convicted Ms. Andrew and condemned her to death. She is the only woman on the state’s death row.
