Troy Davis' clemency has been denied.
Breaking News: The Georgia Board of Pardons and Paroles denied clemency to Troy Davis on Tuesday. This means that very little is standing in the way of the state executing a potentially innocent man this Wednesday. Join us in calling on the Board to reconsider its decision, and on the Chatham County (Savannah) District Attorney Larry Chisolm to do the right thing.
If there ever was a time for the hearts & minds of progressives everywhere to stand up for justice, this time is now.
Contact DA Larry Chisolm, the Chatham County's District Attorney's office, by phone/fax:
Urge him to withdraw the death warrant and support clemency himself.
Telephone: 912-652-7308
Fax: 912-652-7328.
