URGENT ACTION NEEDED Act Now to Save Troy Davis from Execution!
Troy Davis came within 24 hours of execution in July 2007 before receiving a temporary stay of execution. Two weeks later the Georgia Supreme Court agreed to hear his extraordinary motion for a new trial -- based on evidence that he might actually be
innocent. But on Monday, March 17, 2008 the court denied Mr. Davis' appeal.
Troy Davis was sentenced to death for the murder of Police Officer Mark MacPhail in Georgia. The case against him consisted entirely of witness testimony which contained inconsistencies even during the trial. Since then, all but two of the state's nine non-police witnesses from the trial have recanted or contradicted their testimony. Many of these witnesses have stated in sworn affidavits that they were pressured or coerced by police into testifying or signing statements against Troy Davis.
