I think the issue is less about him being definitely innocent and more about the courts just refusing to acknowledge reasonable doubt.

When seven of your nine witnesses retract what they said, with five of those seven saying they were being intimidated/forced into saying it, and with no physical evidence... that's just shoddy proof of guilt.

"Fewer than 40% of Georgia homicide cases involve white victims, but in 87% of the cases in which a death sentence is imposed the victim is white. White-victim cases are roughly eleven times more likely than black-victim cases to result in a sentence of death."

I thought the government was supposed to stamp out racism, not murder in its name. EMPOWER THE STATE!

If only we empowered the government a little bit more. Just a little more tax revenue and a few more intrusions on our rights, and I think we could achieve justice.

I'd rather just have the justice system managed in a more fair and just manner.
