| 102 | Bret R. Rayburn | Execution of inncoent people in order to pretend that the system cannot err is unacceptible, counterintuitive, and evil. |
| 103 | Lloyd Handler, Esq. | This case goes directly to the fundamental fairness of our system, and Georgia's decision is an insult to human decency. |

| 128 | Patrick Clark | Recent events suggest that many are on death row that are innocent and hundreds have been release upon review of the facts. From all that is known about the Troy Davis case, at the very least, the man should get a fair and re-opened case to hear the facts. Anything less than that is wrongful death. Not only that but in a rush to what appears to be a wrongful judgement in a case in which a police officer was killed fails to prosecute the real killer but tarnishes the principles in which law enforcement officers are sworn to uphold. In effect, it becomes a blemish in all police which is a dishonor to the profession. |

| 131 | Barb Stephenson | Certainly innocence matters!!! To think otherwise is to condone legalized murder. What point have we reached as a society when it is considered acceptable for the criminal justice (that's a joke) system to act as God in determining who lives and who dies with no consideration of guilt or innocence? |
| 132 | Carla Peterson | There is a dawning realization that there are many more innocent people in our prisons than previously thought. How can the US talk about freedom and justice while incarcerating innocent people? Listen to Troy's case and undo another injustice! |
| 133 | Margaret Phillips | Too many people have been found before to be innocent or at least not guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. Those are the lucky ones. Please don't let him be one of those whose innocence isn't found in time! |
| 134 | Deborah J Smith | we need to take a stand now! If our loved ones aren't being wrongfully convicted,they're being legally murdered by law enforcments like the Sean Bell case! |

| 136 | Anonymous | If we are to have the death penalty in this country, we simply must not put innocent people to death. The numerous safety mechanisms are in the death row system for a reason - to stop innocent people like Troy Davis from being wrongfully executed. The Supreme Court is the last resort for many inmates, and by agreeing to hear Troy Davis' case, you can establish once and for all that innocent prisoners - for legal, ethical, and social reasons for us as a society - can not and should not be put to death for crimes they did not commit. |
| 137 | penny martin | innocence definetly mtters. Look at all he people just recently have been exonerated because they were innocent. At least once a week you hear it on the news. The people that are responsible for not doing the DNA , or whatever else could prove his innocence will hve their day in court with the GOOD LORD! My husband has been incarcerated in virginia for 27 yrs, has an exemplary record, as been turned down for parole 19 times, he's not innocent but, he's definetly pulledhis time. I will be praying for Troy Davis. GOD BLESS YOU! |

| 139 | James Wright | This is a fundamental civil rights issue. We can NOT put to death any human being without being absolutely certain of his or her guilt. This is not a question of the moral status of the death penalty, although more debate on that topic would certainly be healthy. Rather, it is a question of the ethical root of our justice system. It is not okay, not ethically, not morally, not legally, to execute a person who could even potentially be innocent. |

| 146 | Marya Shahriary | I thought our system saved that one innocent man, even if 100 guilty went free...? Under either theory Troy should be freed! |
| 147 | mary babington | innocence matters to me and when we do nothing to stand up for the innocent- justice is threatened for everyone. executing Troy Davis would be a state sponsored act of murder because Mr. Davis is an innocent man. executing Troy Davis and the other innocent people on death row turn every american into murderers. |
