Melissa is my dads cousin,I remember hearing about this when I was a kid but I kinda forgot about it as I got older but my mom sent me a podcast about it today and now I’m on a rabbit hole. This was a terrible event for my family back before I was even born but it’s nice to see them come together and for him to forgive her.
Ridiculous to find this man guilty, only based on the testimony of a terrified 7 year old child and 1 hair…..
She was a 7 year old traumatized child. The only ones who owe Rodney an apology is the law enforcement. They also owe her family an apology. The real murderer and rapist is out there. I hope Rodneys family sues the court.
She was sexual assaulted and stabbed repeatably..
The injustice of him having to go back to a cell is absolutely insane.
Entonces por qué lo acusó esta mujer cuando era niña si él era inocente. Después de 33 años le pide perdón que barbaridad. Privarlo de su libertad por algo que él nunca hizo.
I am crying ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ this is so emotional
He forgave her. He's a heart of love
OMG the difference between the two interviews of Rodney! In the first interview you could see the lack of hope and color in his face and the extreme depression. In the second interview he had a sparkle in his eyes and his color was SO much healthier looking and he was able to smile without faking it! He finally had hope again!
This is the saddest story I've seen on crime watch daily, the part where he said "I could never harm a child" he was about to burst in to tears!!
I am literally in tears….
I can't magining myself what I would have done is I was being accused of something I've never did and be locked up for 34yrs….
this is the most moving episode of Crime Watch Daily i've seen
That was karma coming back from him, for the first murder he committed
Let him out, let him out…did they ever test the fingerprint on the knife against the sicko real killer prints?
So sad 😢
I started bawling my fucking eyes out god damn ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜

Sad story
I'm crying
Omg… How sad. This poor man's life was stolen. I can't imagine how she feels either. She was just a tiny child. I can't help but be so much more grateful for my problems that now seem so trivial.
I cried my eyes out!! Wow what an amazing person Rodney is. God Bless him!
