Georgia corrections officials have set a Sept. 21 date for the execution
of Troy Anthony Davis, who wass convicted of the 1989 slaying of Savannah
police officer Mark Allen MacPhail. The human rights group Amnesty
International renewed its call for clemency Wednesday for a man on
Georgia's death row, citing continued doubts about his guilt. Twenty-six
members of Witness to Innocence, all exonerated death row survivors, have
signed a letter (SEE below) calling on the Georgia State Board of Pardons
& Paroles to stop the execution of Troy Davis. The letter will be
delivered to Georgia officials in the next few days.
