A Georgia parole board has denied clemency to Troy Davis, the death-row inmate whose case attracted international attention amid what supporters say are significant doubts over his guilt. With the failure of Davis' last-ditch appeal, announced Tuesday morning, he appears all but certain to be executed by lethal injection Wednesday at 7 p.m.

"He's guilty," Joan MacPhail-Harris, the widow of the Savannah cop who Davis was convicted of killing, told reporters Monday before the board announced its decision. "We need to go ahead and execute him."

Davis, 41, was convicted of the 1989 murder of Mark Allen MacPhail, an off-duty Savannah, Ga. police officer. MacPhail, who was running to the aid of a homeless man being pistol-whipped, was shot three times in a Burger King parking lot before he could draw his weapon.

Ron White had it right when he was talking about the different states views on the death penalty.
"Texas wants to put in an express lane"

Every time some sanctimonius Chicago Yankee talks down about Texas being the largest death penalty state and having so many of its citizens armed to the teeth, I remind said jerk about the number of murders in Detroit exceeding the total of Houston, Dallas, and San Antonio.
