Troy Davis sentenced to Die on Wednesday

category international | rights, freedoms and repression | news report author Monday September 19, 2011 09:58author by Justin Morahan Report this post to the editors

A million people have asked that this does not happen

There are only two days left to save Troy Davis's life. By any normal standards, Troy is innocent of the murder for which he is about to be executed

Twenty years ago, Troy's conviction was based entirely on circumstantial evidence and witness testimony. In the past two decades, seven of the nine witnesses in his case have recanted their testimony or changed their stories.

There was never a shred of physical evidence or DNA connecting Troy Davis to the crime. No murder weapon has ever been found. One of the jurors recently stated that if she knew then what she knows now about the case, she would never have sentenced Troy to death.

Here is one link in which you can ask the Georgia Board of Paroles to spare Troy's innocent life:
