Let me share this email I received from NAACP President Benjamin T. Jealous today, "Troy Davis is an African American man who has spent the last eight years on death row for a murder he did not commit. There is no physical evidence tying him to the crime and seven out of nine witnesses have recanted. New evidence and new testimony have been presented to the Georgia courts, but the justice system refuses to consider this evidence which would prove Troy Davis' innocence once and for all." Troy Davis has appealed his case twice to the Georgia Supreme Court, twice to the U. S. Court of Appeals, and twice to the U. S. Supreme Court.
Each time, citing procedural grounds, the courts have refused to even consider the clear evidence of innocence and the recanted testimony. When you consider that three of eyewitnesses now claim that their testimony was coerced by the Savannah Georgia Police Department we can say without one doubt this is an Satanic attack upon this brother and his family and ultimately upon all of us who love justice. There is an urgency of the moment due to the fact that Mr. Davis is scheduled for execution next month (July). What can we do? First and most important we need to go to God in prayer for Troy Davis and his immediate family. And then if it is OK with the Black Preaching Network, I beseech you to go to the NAACP provided website IAMTROY.COM for more information concerning this dire matter.
Troy Davis is living what is written in Psalm 109: 1 - 5, let us all commit this cause to God in prayer. That Brother Davis be delivered from the hands of unscrupulous and deceitful men who are following the leadership of Satan himself. Please share this information with your respective churches because Troy Davis and his family needs our prayers.
In Him,
