Urge Gov. Perdue to Support Clemency for Troy Davis
Posted using ShareThis
Troy Davis faces execution for the murder of Police Officer Mark MacPhail in Georgia, despite a strong claim of innocence. 7 out of 9 witnesses have recanted or contradicted their testimony, no murder weapon was found and no physical evidence links Davis to the crime. The Georgia Board of Pardon and Paroles has voted to deny clemency, yet Governor Perdue can still exercise leadership to ensure that his death sentence is commuted. Please urge him to demonstrate respect for fairness and justice by supporting clemency for Troy Davis.

Watch the State Radio single “Killed by the State of Georgia” about the Troy case. Heart wrenching.
KEEP UP THE FIGHT!
