Troy Anthony Davis has spent 19 years on death row in the US for a crime he has always said he did not commit.

No physical evidence links Troy to the crime. 7 out of 9 witnesses on whose evidence Troy was convicted in 1991 have since changed or retracted their testimony.

In June 2010, Troy was given an opportunity to present new evidence that could prove his innocence at a hearing in Savannah, Georgia. However, despite doubts about his guilt, the judge ruled against Troy putting him back on track for execution.

We want you to support us in letting the Georgia Authority know that we will not stand for this; we want Troy Davis to be given a fair trial. If you want this too, then sign away!

I have spent hours reading through your comments and each one reminds me why we cannot let this injustice stand. My heart aches for Troy after all these years but feeling your determination gives me the strength to keep fighting for the truth.

Seeing this groundswell of support brings me back to those first quiet nights when I felt alone in this fight for Troy. Knowing so many of you now see the injustice in his case gives me hope that we can finally force a fair look at the truth.

Too many people on death row who are innocent. Stop this execution before it is too late.

This case is a total nightmare. Nineteen years is way too long to be waiting for justice. Let the man go!

WHERE IS THE EVIDENCE. They really gonna kill a man with nothing but shaky witness testimony? Disgraceful.
