Judge Refuses to Reconsider Testimony for Troy Anthony Davis
U.S. District Judge William T. Moore Jr. ruled against a motion by Troy Anthony Davis' attorneys to reconsider accepting tesimony saying someone else was the killer.
The judge had ruled that testimony identifying someone else as the killer of Savannah, Georgia officer Mark MacPhail was inadmissable hearsay. He said that was because attorneys for Troy Davis did not call the accused to the witness stand.
Moore said this week he would not reconsider his decision.
A final ruling in the case of Davis, who had been convicted of the murder based largely on since recanted testimony, has yet to be made.

I don't know if it will. I just hope they don't execute him cause it's Tuesday. They don't seem interested in the facts. Please don't kill an innocent man just cause you can. Good luck Troy.

Injustice. Pure and Simple. The legal system is a distorted mess. It's time for a serious cleanup.

It will end when they kill him. This has dragged on for years. Huge waste of taxpayer money.
