Letter and article concerning Troy Davis. Georgians NEEDED!!!

[nofurylike]

Dear All,
The Georgia Fraternal Order of Police (FOP) are in Savannah now for their annual meeting at the Marriott Savannah Riverfront Hotel. They have dedicated their meeting to Officer MacPhail and are urging DA Chisolm to let the execution go forward ASAP!

We need to ramp up our efforts. If you have not sent your personal letter to Chisolm, et. al , yet, please do so ASAP! By all means, yes, you should also sign all the petitions available at NAACP, et al (see http://freetroydavis.com/chisolm_reopen.aspx and www.iamtroy.com)

BUT don’t stop there - you really need to reach out to Chisolm personally and directly with the message that Troy’s innocence matters. If Chisolm has to choose between members of the police and members of amnesty or other anti-death penalty groups – I think we all know he’s going with the police. The only voice more important than the police is yours! Why? Because you’re a voter – because you know voters in Savannah - because you can (and will) campaign for or against him depending on what he does – because you can (and will) use every means available to see that Chisolm gets what he has coming to him.

Used your own words and sentiments to convey why it is critical for him to investigate Troy’s claim of innocence. Send it directly to him (see www.freetroydavis.com for contact info) – don’t just leave it up to NAACP, AI, GFADP, CEDP, or whoever to send your message.

He said police are frustrated by the continuing delays in the Davis execution and want to make known their support for Officer MacPhail and his family. The bulk of media attention has been focused on the pro-Davis voices, Stallings said.
Because the FOP members are meeting in Savannah - site of Officer MacPhail's slaying - they felt it appropriate to dedicate the meeting to him, Mr. Stallings said.
"There's another side to this story," he said. "We have complete confidence in the justice system."
