Troy Davis was convicted of murdering a Georgia police officer in 1991. Nearly two decades later, Davis remains on death row – even though the case against him has completely fallen apart.

Troy Davis, a man who may well be innocent, had a 30-day stay of execution that expired as of May 15, 2009. No court has yet held a hearing on the new evidence of tainted testimony, yet they are willing to end his life. Now that the stay has expired, Davis can be scheduled for execution at any time.

Hear Davis tell his story himself:

"Who does the law 'protect & serve'?"
"The Georgia Supreme Court is CRUEL... but not unusual"
"Terminate prison racism, not humans"
"Stop prisons for profit"
