just two hours before troy davis was to be executed on september 23, the u.s. supreme court issued a stay of execution to consider his appeal...their decision is expected very soon...this followed a stunning refusal by the georgia board of pardons and paroles to grant clemency in this case...mr. davis' serious claims of innocence, which include the recantation of 7 out of 9 witnesses, have never been heard in court...further, no murder weapon was found and no physical evidence linked davis to the crime...
over 200,000 petitions have been collected from all over the world demanding justice for troy davis...
