TROY ANTHONY DAVIS
To take a mans life and then say 'ooph's', sorry you were innocent after his death makes his executors murderers themselves.
Justice is meant to be for all men.
Justice is a hope for Troy, not a certainty.
There is much law, many lawyers, judges and they play men's lives in the theatre of a court room, but there is little honest justice.
AN EYE FOR AN EYE MAKES THE WORLD BLIND
