State has family of Stites and Fennell take the stand in Reed hearing
As Rodney Reed's appeal hearing draws to a close, the state works to change the negative character image of Jimmy Fennell after last week's testimony.
BASTROP, Texas - The state started the morning with a couple of law enforcement witnesses, trying to corroborate and discredit some testimony from fellow inmates of Jimmy Fennell.
As the appeal draws closer to a close, people from all over are attending the proceedings.
"I have no doubt Rodney Reed is innocent. They should be about justice rather than covering it up," said O.T. Brandley, who came to watch the proceedings.
