The agency recently spent $32,627 for a bullet-resistant sport utility vehicle with tinted windows, according to records provided by the Office of Management and Enterprise Services, which approved the purchase. Additional items including a light package and radio brought the total to $40,587, according to the Oklahoma Department of Corrections. Patton is currently being escorted by bodyguards.”
