Far too often innocent men are put to death in our country. Rodney Reed is an innocent man on death row and at the time of this taping he was scheduled to be executed March 5th. Luckily the courts have put a stay on his execution but the battle to save him is not over. And he is not alone either – the Innocence Project estimates that over 4% of every US executions are carried out on innocent people. It’s time to end this barbaric practice. In this clip from Redacted Tonight comedian Lee Camp breaks it all down.
Rodney Reed sits on death row in Texas, facing an execution date of March 5th for a murder that even the victim’s family thinks he didn’t commit. It would take a simple DNA test to prove his innocence – and you can force the Governor of Texas to make that happen. Here’s a website with more info – http://justice4rodneyreed.org/
