Sadly, the US Supreme Court this morning refused to consider the case of Troy Davis, the man sitting on Georgia’s Death Row for nearly 20 years. This was the last opportunity for a retrial to prevent his execution. Worldwide support for Davis comes from people such as Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Jimmy Carter and Congressman John Lewis.
Help prevent a monumental injustice. The Georgia Board of Pardons and Paroles still has the opportunity to stop his execution! takepart and call on the Georgia Board of Pardons and Paroles to reconsider its previous decision and grant clemency to Troy Davis.
