"BEYOND A REASONABLE DOUBT" IS DEAD

What kind of country are we that demands a verdict of "beyond a reasonable doubt" but then won't revoke a sentence when that doubt becomes extensively evident.

Don't we claim as Americans to value life above all else?

Then how can we not choose to err on the side of life when the guilt of a man is no longer clear.

Troy Davis - whether he was or wasn't guilty - he didn't deserve to die at the hands of the American justice system.

Beyond a reasonable doubt ... can anyone truly claim that's the case with Mr. Davis?
