While Donald Trump, in the last days of his term, accelerates the executions of death row inmates, a family and stars, like Beyonce and Rihanna, are trying to save the life of Rodney Reed.

Since 1998, Rodney Reed has been sentenced to death in Texas for the murder of Stacey Stiles. Rodney is black, Stacey was white. For the jurors, there was no doubt about his guilt…

However, a dramatic turn of events has relaunched the whole affair. Stacey's former partner, a former white police officer, who was sentenced to 10 years in prison for rape with a weapon in the line of duty, allegedly confessed to being the real perpetrator of the murder. He allegedly confided in his cellmate, Arthur Snow, a white neoNazi activist advocating the superiority of the white race.

Today, freed and repentant, Arthur Snow wants to save the life of Rodney Reed, the black man sentenced to death, through his testimony. For Envoyé Spécial, Vanina Kanban met the actors of this incredible drama.
