Day of Action for Troy Davis: Stop the Execution!

http://www.amnestyusa.org/troy

May 21, 2009

Objective:
Troy Davis is about to be executed by the state of Georgia despite the fact that he may be innocent. Help stop this travesty of justice!

Troy Davis remains on death row in Georgia even though the case against him has completely fallen apart. 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.

Troy Davis' stay of execution is set to expire and he could then be executed at any time. On May 19, people all around the world will be organizing events to show the state of Georgia that the execution of Troy Davis would be an unacceptable travesty of justice.

Help spread the word about this injustice. Post a blog entry on Troy between now and May 19th to raise awareness and stop the execution of a possibly innocent man. Be sure to link to the online petition targeting Georgia Governor Perdue: amnestyusa.org/troydavis

If you use Facebook, update your status to help spread the word as well!
