We’ve received terrible news: Troy Davis’s clemency was denied by the Georgia Board of Pardons and Paroles, and he is set to be executed on Wednesday, September 21st at 7 PM.
But now is not the time to give up hope. Chatham County District Attorney Larry Chisolm is the man who requested the death warrant against Troy Davis, and he is in a unique position to petition the judge to withdraw the death warrant against Troy.
Since Troy Davis’s conviction, the facts of the case have changed dramatically. The evidence in the Troy Davis case has always been circumstantial due to a lack of relevant physical evidence and no murder weapon. The conviction was based almost wholly on witness testimony, and seven of the nine witnesses have recanted their testimony or changed their story.
In light of this knowledge, the evidence used to convict Troy Davis appears even weaker.
Sign the petition to District Attorney Larry Chisolm today. Tell him an innocent life hangs in the balance, and he has your support in preventing Troy Davis’ execution by coming forward to ask the Judge to withdraw the death warrant against Troy.
