Al Sharpton Focuses On Troy Davis Death Row Case

Davis has been granted several stays of appeal from the Supreme Court on down, but his final appeal rests with a Georgia parole board. Sharpton brought on Atlanta Journal-Constitution columnist Cynthia Tucker to discuss the case. Tucker said she did not have high hopes that the Georgia board will grant Davis clemency. "They are heavily invested in the idea that they did it right the first time," she said. "...They don't want to admit that they may have made a mistake." "We want justice for the family of the officer," Sharpton said. "We just feel they cannot get justice if the wrong person pays."
