Death Row was not a concern for a young Roderick Johnson who had no concept of the law and the level of corruption in the Reading PA police department. He believed because he was innocent he had nothing to worry about. But he quickly came to understand that the two veteran detectives that ran the drug ring he was involved in with were extracting revenge because he refused to carry out their criminal orders to rob and kill a rival drug dealer. They ordered him shot, but when he miraculously lived they framed him for multiple counts of murder. It is no coincidence that these are the very same detectives that arrested him for murder. Unfortunately, Roderick is only one of many victims of these corrupt cops. Today, Roderick is vastly different from the adolescent who fell into the allure of the drug world as a way to provide for his five young children. He is as a born-again Christian Minister who faithfully spreads the word of God. Not only has Roderick maintained his innocence since day one, but there are four eyewitnesses who confirm Roderick is not the shooter.
Roderick Johnson has been unjustly incarcerated for eight years now. His execution warrant has been signed four times. He was only 72 hours away from being murdered by the State when he was granted a stay of execution. Roderick Johnson is an innocent man and desperately needs your support. Won’t you please demand long-overdue justice and help us save his life?
