- Dear Mumia-Committee Vienna,
-
- We won! Thanks to you and
35,000 other NAACP members and supporters, the U.S.
Supreme Court today announced that Troy Davis will
finally get his day in court?and a chance to prove his
innocence.
-
- The court ordered a federal
judge in Georgia to review, what we and many others
believe is, the overwhelming evidence of Troy's
innocence. Troy was sentenced to death for the 1991
killing of a police officer in Savannah, Georgia.
-
- As you know, the NAACP and
other organizations have been fighting to save the life
of Troy Davis. There was no physical evidence tying him
to the crime and seven out of nine witnesses have
recanted or contradicted their testimony. And today,
finally, the Supreme Court gave Troy a chance to present
this evidence and prove his innocence! That's a victory
for Troy and his family ?- and for all of us.
-
- Thank you for all your work
to make this happen. I'll be in touch again soon to let
you know how else you can help.
-
- Sincerely,
-
- Benjamin Todd Jealous
- President and CEO
- NAACP
