Hi, I sent out something about this before the Pardon Board met but 
unfortunately this man was denied clemency even though he almost certainly 
innocent!  Please sign a letter now as I did, even if you have done this 
before.  30 seconds may help save a life.  If you can, please PERSONALIZE 
SUBJECT HEADING as well as the body of letter.

IF YOU WANT TO DO MORE (this is my idea) here is the link to the GOVERNOR'S 
EMAIL

Here is the full request by the ACLU:

A man who is almost certainly innocent needs your help, and fast.
On Friday, September 12th, Troy Davis was denied clemency by the Georgia Board 
of Pardons and Paroles. It is imperative that we respectfully ask them to 
reconsider this unfortunate decision. They have to power to stop this 
indefensible execution and we must implore them to make the right decision.

Troy Anthony Davis was convicted of the murder of off-duty Savannah Police 
Officer Mark MacPhail in 1991. No physical evidence links him to the crime, and 
he has steadfastly maintained his innocence. His conviction was based solely on 
the testimony of witnesses. There was no other evidence against him. Since his 
trial, seven people who had previously testified against Troy changed the story 
they had told in court.   

Some witnesses say they were coerced by police. Others have even signed 
affidavits implicating one of the remaining two witnesses as the actual killer. 
But due to an increasingly restrictive appeals process, none of this new 
evidence has ever been heard in court.
Can you take 30 seconds and help save the life of a man who is almost certainly 
innocent? You can learn more and take action here:
