I start with the fact that there was no forensic evidence in the case. I discount the bullet cases because guns are stolen all the time—I would hazard that the gun was stolen when Davis used it for whatever he used it for previously.But there is that little thing called reasonable doubt. I think I have reasonable doubts. I worry about recanted eye-witness testimony. Even though it wasn’t recanted in court. I wonder about pressure from cops and over-zealous DAs. I wonder whether the police found a suitable suspect and looked no further. I’m certain that Troy Davis was no angel. But was he guilty of murder beyond a reasonable doubt? I don’t think so. Do I absolutely know? No. Do I think that the world will really ever know? Perhaps, when someone on his/her deathbed tells us. |
