Petizione: Re-indagare MacPhail dell'ufficiale omicidio

da Davis/MacPhail Truth Committee
pubblicato: 4 Settembre 2012

A petition has been launched to re-investigate the killing of a police officer that led to the execution of Troy Davis.

Troy was sent to his death despite a mass of evidence casting his 1991 convinzione in dubbio, compresi ritrattazioni da sette dei nove testimoni chiave al suo processo per l'omicidio di un ufficiale di polizia.

The execution provoked an extraordinary outpouring of protest in Georgia, alla corte suprema e la Casa Bianca a Washington, e nelle città di tutto il mondo.

The petition demands that Officer MacPhail’s murder should be thoroughly investigated in light of recanted and tarnished witness testimony, a faulty initial investigation that was highly prejudicial toward Troy Davis, and his poorly financed defense during the original trial and appeals process.
