Lawyers Planning Last-Minute Challenges as Time Running Out for Troy Anthony Davis

Lawyers Planning Last-Minute Challenges as Time Running Out for Troy Anthony Davis

Georgia death row prisoner Troy Anthony Davis is scheduled to be executed Monday night. Earlier this month, the Supreme Court refused to hear Davis’s appeal to have a jury hear new evidence that he says could prove his innocence. Lawyers have asked the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals to stay his execution and allow them to file a new federal lawsuit based on innocence claims. We speak to Ezekiel Edwards of the Innocence Project and Laura Moye of Amnesty International USA. [includes rush transcript]
