Last Day!

TUESDAY: NATIONAL PHONE JAM FOR RODNEY REED.

March 18: Demand a new trial for Rodney Reed!

Oral arguments in Rodney’s case are being heard Wednesday, March 19 by the notorious Texas Court of Criminal Appeals.  We are asking everyone to phone and email the CCA and the Texas Attorney General to ask for a new trial for Rodney Reed.  The presiding judge of the CCA, Judge Sharon Keller, has come under fire recently for denying the appeal of Michael Richard -- the last person to be executed in Texas as national de facto moratorium on executions took effect -- because she was unwilling to keep the court open after 5 PM.  With the life of an innocent man in the hands of this court, we need to ratchet up the pressure.

Rodney Reed deserves a new trial, where evidence of his innocence can finally be heard in court.  Evidence was hidden by police and prosecutors that implicate another suspect in the murder of Stacey Stites.  Read the attached fact sheet for an overview of the case.  Rodney’s defense has long posited that Jimmy Fennell, the fiance of Stacey, is the more likely suspect in this crime.  For recent developments surrounding Jimmy Fennell check out:
