Georgia’s longest serving death row inmate again has an execution date set--7pm October 27th. A Chatham County judge yesterday decided on the window for the execution of Troy Davis. The Department of Corrections then set the exact time and date. This represents Davis’ third execution date in little more than a year. Earlier this week, the U.S. Supreme Court cleared the way for execution by refusing to step into the debate over Davis’ case.
Davis is convicted of the 1989 murder of a Savannah police officer. Since that trial, seven of nine witnesses have recanted testimony.
