[h=1]Troy Davis to be executed after parole board denies clemency[/h]


A Georgia parole board has denied clemency to Troy Davis, the death-row inmate whose case attracted international attention amid what supporters say are significant doubts over his guilt. With the failure of Davis' last-ditch appeal, announced Tuesday morning, he appears all but certain to be executed by lethal injection Wednesday at 7 p.m.


"He's guilty," Joan MacPhail-Harris, the widow of the Savannah cop who Davis was convicted of killing, told reporters Monday before the board announced its decision. "We need to go ahead and execute him."
Davis, 41, was convicted of the 1989 murder of Mark Allen MacPhail, an off-duty Savannah, Ga. police officer. MacPhail, who was running to the aid of a homeless man being pistol-whipped, was shot three times in a Burger King parking lot before he could draw his weapon.

If somebody killed you it would be classed as justifiable insecticide!!
 
way to go georgia, it takes balls to execute an innocent man. :awesome:

ok, he may or may not be innocent, but there are serious concerns regarding his guilt. and the people on this board? conflict of interest much?

Gale Buckner, a former Georgia Bureau of Investigation agent . . . .
Robert Keller, the ex-chair of a Georgia prosecutors group . . .
James Donald, the former head of the Georgia Department of Corrections,
Albert Murray, who led the state’s juvenile justice program,
and Terry Barnard, a former Republican state lawmaker.


people who are jazzed about this guy being executed need to visit a therapist for their idiotic bloodlust.
