The NAACP believes that there is too much doubt surrounding the conviction of Mr. Davis, whose many accusers have since recanted their testimony against him. Davis\u2019 execution is scheduled for September 21, 2011.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">\u201cAfter reviewing the evidence, I am convinced that Troy Davis is an innocent man,\u201d stated NAACP President and CEO Benjamin Todd Jealous. \u201cIt is appalling to me that with so much doubt surrounding this case, Mr. Davis is set to be executed in 14 days. Justice will never be served by the state-sanctioned murder of an innocent man.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">On the evening of August 19, 1989, Savannah police officer Mark Allen MacPhail was gunned down while he worked as a part-time security guard. In a case that has garnered national attention, seven of the nine witnesses against Mr. Davis have since recanted their statements incriminating him, several citing police pressure to fabricate statements. To date, there is no physical evidence connecting Mr. Davis to the crime.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.blackvoicenews.com\/news\/46748-naacp-condemns-scheduled-execution-of-troy-davis.html\">Fuente<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Tuesday, September 6, 2011, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) strongly condemned the scheduled execution of Troy Anthony Davis.
