Rodney Reed is InnocentTX, United States
Sep 8, 2019

Rodney Reed is innocent of the murder of Stacey Stites. At the time of the crime and now, all evidence implicates Stacey was killed by her boyfriend / fiancé, Jimmy Fennell. The scientific and medical evidence ALONE exonerates Rodney Reed.

Here are some indisputable facts against Fennell:

  1. Jimmy Fennell has a history of violence against women.
  2. Fennell told a fellow officer he'd kill Stacey if she cheated on him again. Jimmy explained to this officer he would strangle Stacey with a belt so as to not leave his fingerprints and / or DNA on Stacey. Stacey was strangled with a belt.
  3. Fennell threatened Rodney Reed "he'd pay" for spending time with Stacey.
  4. Stacey told friends Fennell would kill her if he found out about her "friend."
  5. Fennell lied about his whereabouts on the last night Stacey was known alive.
  6. Fennell was the last person with Stacey at the time of her death.
  7. When Fennell's truck was located, the driver's side seatbelt was engaged, which is typical for law enforcement, implying a cop was last driving the truck. Fennell was a cop.
  8. Stacey's fingernails were clipped to the quick post mortem. In 1996, law enforcement knew DNA was collected from fingernails, but, it wasn't known in the general public.
  9. Fennell closed his and Stacey's joint bank account the morning of April 23, 1996 - hours before Stacey's body was found.
  10. Fennell sold his pick-up truck a few days after Stacey's death, prior to a full forensics investigation and processing of the vehicle, even though the truck was filled with evidence.
  11. Fennell failed two polygraph exams. When specifically asked if he strangled Stacey, Fennell failed the question.
  12. Fennell "Pled the 5th" rather than answer questions in open court about his role in Stacey's death.
