Gilbert Ray Postelle, 35, received a lethal injection at the Oklahoma State Penitentiary in McAlester.

Oklahoma executed a man Thursday for his role in a quadruple slaying in 2005.

At a trial set to begin February 28 in Oklahoma City federal court, more than two dozen death row inmates are asking a judge to find the state’s execution procedure unconstitutional due to the danger of it causing severe pain to the condemned prisoner.

"In her final moments, Amy Wright was screaming and clawing the ground to escape from Gilbert Postelle," prosecutors told the parole board.
