Troy Davis Hearing Set for June 30

Troy Davis will finally be able to present evidence of his innocence in a court hearing scheduled for June 30 in Georgia. Davis was convicted and sentenced to death in 1991 for the 1989 murder of off-duty police officer Mark Allan MacPhail in Savannah, Georgia.  MacPhail, 27, was shot twice when he rushed to help a homeless man being beaten in a parking lot.

In August 2009, the U.S. Supreme Court sent the Davis case to federal court with instructions for the court to consider testimony to determine if the  evidence not heard at the original trial  would “clearly establish (Davis’) innocence.”

Since his conviction, seven of the nine prosecution witnesses have recanted their testimony, and there are also nine new witnesses for Davis who never testified in the original trial.  

Davis’ team contends Sylvester “Red” Coles, who was present at the scene of the MacPhail shooting, learned police were looking for him and accused Davis to shift blame.

TADP Marks National Crime Victims’ Rights Week

President Obama has proclaimed that April 18 through April 24, 2010, is National Crime Victims’ Rights Week. During this week, the President has called upon all Americans to participate in events and activities that raise awareness of victims’ rights.

We at TADP want to join with the President to give thanks for all those who work to support victims’ of crime as well as those whose efforts are focused on crime prevention. We encourage all our readers to look into opportutnies within your communities to volunteer in support of all those who have suffered from crime and violence.

TADP continues to believe that our state resources are far better spent on crime prevention programs and support for victims’ and their families than on a wasteful death penalty system that put families through years of agonizing waiting for a sentence to be carried out.

We hope that TADP can continue to listen to and learn from surviving family members of murder in order to find ways to work together to make the system more restorative and healing for those who have suffered much.

Moving Story about Sisters’ Reponse to Murder

In today’s Chicago Tribune, you can read a powerful story of the love among sisters who have suffered a great deal of tragedy. The article tells the story of two sisters struggling to deal with the brutal murder of their pregnant sister, Nancy Bishop Langert, and her husband, Richard, 20 years ago by a teen-aged intruder.

Nancy’s two sisters, Jennifer Bishop Jenkins, and Jeanne Bishop, have dedicated their lives to honoring their sister’s life through their work to reduce violence, including work to abolish the death penalty and enact tougher gun control laws. The sisters also co-founded the National Organization of Victims of Juvenile Lifers, which has lobbied against parole-granting efforts for juvenile offenders with life sentences, the sentence that their sister and brother-in-law’s killer received.

This is a powerful story of hope, in the face of great tragedy. We all have much to learn from the witness of this family.

Amnesty International Releases Global Death Penalty Report for 2009

Amnesty International recently released its global death penalty report showing 700 people were executed in 18 countries in 2009 with at least 2,000 people sentenced to death. 179 countries had no executions in 2009. Countries with the highest number of executions were Iran with at least 388, Iraq with at least 120, Saudi Arabia with at least 69, and the United States with 52. China continues to execute more people than the rest of the world combined, but the data is kept secret.

For the first time, there were no reported executions in Europe, and no executions took place in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Indonesia, and Mongolia for the first time in many years. Burundi and Togo abolished the death penalty in 2009.

The U.S. was the only country in the Americas to carry out an execution. What is wrong with this picture?

The United Nations General Assembly has called for a moratorium on all executions.
