 So I want to take a moment to talk about a man named Rodney Reid who is currently on death row in Texas And he is set to be executed on the 20th of this month Now the problem is that he's innocent. He did not commit the crime That he is going to be executed for and as the Innocence Project explains Texas has scheduled the execution of our client Rodney Reid for this November 20th Despite evidence that exonerates him and implicates the murder victims fiance Jimmy Fennell Reid has been on death row since 1998 for the 1996 murder of Stacey Steitz and he has been repeatedly Denied DNA testing which could prove his innocence furthermore three forensic experts have submitted affidavits Recanting their original testimony and stating that the original time of death is inaccurate Making the timeline for Reid killing Steitz implausible new witnesses including Steitz own cousin have come forward and Corroborated Reid's claim that they knew that Reid and Steitz were romantically involved at this point The state's original case has been completely discredited and deconstructed So that's the simplified version of this story the case against him completely collapsed now I'm gonna link you to a Jacobin article which is incredibly thorough and it goes through the evidence and Really, it's overwhelming. There's no question that this man is innocent, but regardless We are down to The nitty gritty here. He's going to be killed in days If we don't take action So I want to share this tweet from Patricia boozing who says urgent in seven days Innocence Project client Rodney Reid will be executed for a crime. He didn't commit Please contact Governor Greg Abbott plus the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles now to stop his execution 737 to 10 4 8 0 0 not from Texas tag a friend who is so if you are From Texas make that call you could save this man's life if you make that call and On top of that if you're not from Texas reach out to someone you know who is from Texas because this is Incredibly urgent This cannot happen. He cannot be killed for a crime. He didn't commit this is one of the many reasons why we have to abolish the death penalty because There are too many instances where innocent people are put to death and this can't happen in a modern egalitarian society So we have to take a stand here and we have to raise You know awareness about this issue and sound the alarms Rodney Reid will be killed by the state of Texas on November 20th. If we don't make a ton of noise So please we need all hands on deck share any information You have share a petition that I am going to link in the description box from the innocence project please make some noise about this because this is a life and The fact that he served this long in prison in and of itself When he's innocent is an injustice, but for him to be put to death when we know that he's innocent Would be beyond the pale so please spread the word. We have to save Rodney Reid
