Talking points:

1. Rodney is innocent
2. The State's three expert witnesses whose testimony convicted Rodney, have ALL been repudiated.
3. Without the erroneous testimony, there wouldn't be a conviction of Rodney Reed, therefore, Rodney should be exonerated
4. Then and now ALL of the evidence implicates Jimmy Fennell as the killer, and puts the time of death on the night of April 22, which has Stacey Stites with Jimmy Fennell, and only Jimmy Fennell
5. Rodney Reed is innocent, and the State has deprived him of testing DNA for the totality of his case
6. It's time for the State of Texas, and Bastrop District Attorney, Bryan Goertz to do the right thing and release Rodney Reed

Radio station KKHT in Houston, Texas, hosts an uplifting radio show every Saturday evening. The best part of the show is that callers can call and say, "HELLO!" to their friends and loved ones in prison. Rodney LOVES to hear from supporters, and we encourage everyone to call him and just say hi, and let him know you support him.

To call Rodney:

You'll have two minutes to say hello to Rodney. He doesn't get to reply, but, he listens to every caller. The radio station will want your name, and the name of the unit you're calling - POLUNSKY. Once it's your turn to speak, you just say, "Hi, this is, FIRST NAME, and I'm calling for RODNEY REED at Polunsky, Hi, Rodney...."

Saturday phone calls: Call KKHT from 10:00 - 10:55 p.m CST at (800) 808-5548.

Community Forum: Is an innocent man going to be executed for a crime he did not commit?

Hosted By: Texas Southern University Thurgood Marshall School of Law, The Innocence Project

Details: Please join us for a documentary screening and a panel discussion with Rodney’s family and legal team.

Location: 3100 Cleburne Street, Houston, Texas, 77004

Hosted by: Rodney Reed is Innocent

Details: As part of of our Freedom Friday initiative, we call representatives every Friday to let them know Rodney Reed is innocent, and should be exonerated. Kirk Watson is the District 14 Texas Senator, and his phone number is (512) 463-0114. District 14 includes Bastrop, and Bastrop County.

In order to advocate for Rodney, we must consistently make our voices heard. Phone calls take less than one minute, and the person who answers the phone documents the reason for the call. The more people who call for Rodney Reed to be exonerated, the more likely it is that Sen. Watson will take notice. PLEASE CALL (any day of the week) and every Friday! Please always be kind, courteous and respectful.

Script:

Hello, my name is _________________, and I'm calling because Rodney Reed is an innocent man on death row, convicted of a crime in Bastrop which is Sen. Watson's district. The state relied on expert testimony which has all been repudiated. There's no evidence that implicates Rodney Reed, yet, all of the evidence implicates Jimmy Fennell. Please urge Senator Watson to look at this case, and free Rodney Reed. Thank you.
