Several witnesses said they were pressured or coerced into naming Davis as the killer. One such witness, for example, later stated in an affidavit that he was on parole, and was threatened with jail if he didn't finger Davis, another said she was threatened with the removal of her kids. I think the DA wanted a quick conviction in the high-profile case of a cop-killing, and he brought his prosecutorial weight to bear to see that it happened. The South is a strange place; they do things differently there. |
