Group says it has 6,000 signatures on Glanz ouster petition

We The People Oklahoma says it has gathered more than 6,000 signatures on its grand jury petition drive to investigate the Tulsa County Sheriff’s Office.

When group founder Marq Lewis made his announcement to cheers from the dozen-or-so volunteers behind him, he couldn’t help but get in a little dig.

“Terry Simonson made a bet,” Lewis said, referring to the sheriff’s office spokesman who told the Tulsa World it was a longshot that the group could come up with 5,000 signatures. “And he lost that bet.”
