INNOCENCE PROJECT: RODNEY REED GIVEN STAY OF EXECUTION BY TEXAS COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS

[Mass Incarceration News\Rodney Reed]
Bryce Benjet, Mr. Reed’s Innocence Project attorney: “We are thankful that the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles have unanimously voted for a 120-day reprieve (before an indefinite stay was granted) of Mr. Reed’s execution. This time is critical to allow for proper consideration of the powerful new evidence of his innocence and possible DNA testing that could help prove who actually committed the crime. We hope that Governor Abbott will consider all of the facts in this case, and adopt the Board’s recommendation as soon as possible.”

IS TEXAS ABOUT TO EXECUTE RODNEY REED FOR A MURDER PERPETRATED BY A POLICE OFFICER?

[Criminal Justice\ Rodney Reed]
Bryce Benjet, senior staff attorney at the Innocence Project and Reed’s lead counsel: “It should be clear to anyone who looks at the evidence in this case that Mr. Reed did not commit the sexual assault or murder of Stacey Stites. To execute Mr. Reed would be a grave miscarriage of justice that will create irreparable damage to public confidence in the accuracy and fairness of the Texas criminal justice system.”
