Guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.It's the foundation of our justice system, built to serve and protect the wrongly accused. But in the case of Troy Davis, it's a principle that has been defied, ignored and trampled on.
Troy has been on Death Row for the past 20 years for the murder of Savannah, GA police officer Mark MacPhail. Despite serious doubts to his guilt, Davis’ execution is scheduled for September 21, 2011. There is simply too much doubt to let this happen. Read more about Troy's case here.
We can save Troy, but it’s something we can only accomplish together, with your help. Here are four things you can do to help save Troy Davis from execution.
- Write a letter to the Georgia Board of Pardons and Paroles, asking them to grant Troy clemency.
