The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals has granted Rodney Reed an indefinite stay of execution, meaning he no longer has an execution date. This news came just hours after the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles unanimously recommended a reprieve of Rodney's execution.
Thank you — we could not have done this without your support. Rodney's legal battle continues, but for now, we are grateful that the courts have given him an opportunity to prove his innocence.
