Excerpt: Amnesty International Report on theCase of
Troy Davis
Where is the Justice for me?
A plea from Troy
Davis
Where is the
Justice for me? In 1989 I surrendered myself to the police for crimes I
knew I was innocent of in an effort to seek justice through the court
system in Savannah, Georgia USA. But like so many death penalty cases,
that was not my fate and I have been denied justice. During my
imprisonment I have lost more than my freedom, I lost my father and my
family has suffered terribly, many times being treated as less than
human and even as criminals. In the past I have had lawyers who refused
my input, and would not represent me in the manner that I wanted to be
represented. I have had witnesses against me threatened into making
false statements to seal my death sentence and witnesses who wanted to
tell the truth were vilified in court.
For the entire two years I
was in jail awaiting trial I wore a handmade cross around my neck, it
gave me peace and when a news reporter made a statement in the local
news, “Cop-killer wears cross to court,” the cross was immediately taken
as if I was unworthy to believe in God or him in me. The only time my
family was allowed to enter the courtroom on my behalf was during the
sentencing phase where my mother and sister had to beg for my life and
the prosecutor simply said, “I was only fit for killing.” Where is the
Justice for me, when the courts have refused to allow me relief when
multiple witnesses have recanted their testimonies that they lied
against me?
Because of the
Anti-Terrorism Bill, the blatant racism and bias in the U.S. Court
System, I remain on death row in spite of a compelling case of my
innocence. Finally I have a private law firm trying to help save my life
in the court system, but it is like no one wants to admit the system
made another grave mistake. Am I to be made an example of to save face?
Does anyone care about my family who has been victimized by this death
sentence for over 16 years? Does anyone care that my family has the fate
of knowing the time and manner by which I may be killed by the state of
Georgia?
I truly understand a life
has been lost and I have prayed for that family just as I pray for mine,
but I am Innocent and all I ask for is a True Day in a Just Court. If I
am so guilty why do the courts deny me that? The truth is that they have
no real case; the truth is I am
Innocent.
Where is the Justice
for me?
