The Issue

Rodney Garrett, 29 years old, African American male of Antioch,Tn is being falsely accused of two counts of first degree murder in Macon county Tennessee. Rodney is a loving, warmhearted parent of a 9 yr old boy.  While all odds were against Rodney, he prevailed threw his hardships and remained focused on bettering himself for his son. Though Rodney could have taken the easy road out and given up after having issues finding stable employment, he never gave up and used his traits as a mechanic to provide for his son at any cost.   Rodney Garrett is kind man who took up rescuing pit-bulls in his spare time and enjoyed spending any time with his family that he could, to know him was to love him. Threw adversity Mr.Garrett was headed for success and has fallen victim to stereotyping and racial profiling leading him to face detrimental charges that could forever change not only his life but his sons directly.

  On February 16, 2017 Rodney was arrested on two counts of first degree murder and is currently being  held while the investigation continues to unfold, while Mr. Garrett is held guilty until proven innocent. The only evidence leading to Mr.Garrett's arrest being testimony from the known gunman's 23 year old live in girlfriend Kelsey Harper. Kelsey is currently still residing in Hartsville tn, while 22 year old gunman KeithAndre Murray has been apprehended and currently being held in wilson county jail.
