Robert Reid: Another Killer May Go Free
On October 17, 1983, Robert Gerald Reid stabbed his fleeing wife to death on his neighbors front lawn. When being questioned by police, Reid admitted to fatally stabbing his wife, Daisey, in the chest. When a police captain entered the room to inform the interviewing detective that Reid’s wife had succumbed to her wounds and was now dead, Robert Reid’s cold-hearted response was simply “Good!”
Robert Gerald Reid was later sentenced to life in prison. Now it turns out he may not have to serve that time.
Twenty-four years have passed. Does anyone remember Daisey Reid? Should the man that killed her be allowed to walk free, even though he was sentenced to life for his heinous crime?
It seems that during his incarceration Reid has not stabbed a single woman to death. He has even convinced Oklahoma’s state parole board that he should be able to walk a free man. They have recommended his parole even though less brutal murderers have been given the death penalty. If Governor Brad Henry signs Reid’s release, I feel for the next woman that becomes entangled in his violent wrath.
Governor Henry, please remember Daisey Reid. Please don’t let her life be sold for so less. Please let Robert Reid serve his entire sentence. Another woman’s life may depend on it.
