SCOTUS Denies Rodney Reed's Appeal
|
|
On Monday, the Supreme Court of the United States denied an appeal to review Rodney Reed’s case. Rodney was convicted for the 1996 murder of Stacey Stites and narrowly avoided being executed on two separate occasions. He has an active case in Texas’ lower courts and will have a chance to present new evidence of his innocence at a new hearing in September.
“I remain hopeful that available state processes will take care to ensure full and fair consideration of Reed's innocence," Justice Sonia Sotomayor wrote in a statement following the decision. Read his legal team’s response.
