Davis To File Appeal To Nation's High Court

Lawyers for Georgia death-row inmate Troy Davis will file a final appeal today to the US Supreme Court. Attorneys will ask the nation’s high court to send the Davis case back to a federal judge for an evidentiary hearing. The 40-year-old Davis was convicted of the killing of a Savannah police officer 20 years ago. But since the trial in 1991, seven of nine state witnesses have recanted testimony, or now implicated another man for the murder. Tonight, a rally in support of Davis will be held on the steps of the State Capitol.
