    State of Texas and all government officials, do the right thing and give this man a fair trial This is Injustice 101! Do the DNA test. Why murder someone for a murder they didn’t commit? Injustice…..

    He is an innocent man. Killing him is unjust! When you save one life you help the entire world. Please consider his case with compassion.

    Death closes a door no person can open. Don’t let the finality of death close the door on the possibility of Reed’s innocence. Please give Mr. Reed a chance to prove his innocence!

    If The Real Suspect Confessed, Why Should Rodney Still Be Locked Up? Knowing He’s INNOCENT BY LAW? Set Rodney FREE! He Doesn’t Deserve To Die! He Has Already Lost A Lot Of Years In A Cage For Something That He Didn’t Do.

    Do not take another innocent life , free this innocent man. It’s time to make a change , stop framing and killing innocent men and women begins lies and hate. Do the right thing , grant clemency , stop the execution. God bless you Rodney , don’t stop praying and continue to seek God through this.

    To take this man’s life with no evidence is murder itself and those that take any party in trying to execute him are murders themselves!
    Mr. Reed should have never been convicted of murdering this woman; or was he convicted for BEING BLACK IN TEXAS??? “FREE RODNEY REED!”

    His sentence was clearly over exaggerated and needs to be stopped. They know he’s innocent but then again they still want to kill and stop the black male from achieving in society.
