Rodney Rodell Reed (born December 22, 1967) is an American convicted murderer who was sentenced to death for the abduction, rape, and strangulation of Stacey Stites in the town of Bastrop, Texas on April 23, 1996. He has been on Texas's death row since May 1998.
His conviction and death sentence remain controversial. Although Reed initially denied knowing Stites, after his DNA matched semen inside Stites's dead body, Reed claimed that he was having a clandestine affair with Stites and that they had consensual sex the day before her death.
Reed was scheduled to be executed on November 20, 2019. Doubt over Reed's guilt has led to bipartisan support for a stay of his execution from Texas state legislators, as well as numerous celebrities and other public figures.
On November 15, 2019, the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles unanimously recommended that Texas Governor Greg Abbott grant Reed a 120 day reprieve. Later that day, the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals indefinitely stayed Reed's execution to review, among other claims, his allegations of actual innocence.
Earlier today, Texas police officials have confirmed that they have found new evidence that will prove that Reed is innocent. Police cannot disclose the information on what the evidence is but it has been shown in court earlier today and the jury are still deciding whether he is still guilty or not
