Bassham Locked Up on Murder Charges | Tulsa News

Ryan Bassham, the owner of the marijuana processing plant that exploded in Sand Springs, is now locked up facing two counts of first-degree murder after two employees died. Arrested again in a different county for running another illegal operation, he was initially released on a $2 million bond — but Tulsa County prosecutors demanded he be held without bail, fearing he’d flee or endanger the community. Authorities discovered he’d already booked a flight to New York, trying to vanish before the murder charges hit. He’s currently jailed without bond in Creek County as investigators continue unraveling the deadly explosion. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
