USA - Georgia. U.S. Supreme Court holds off on Troy Davis decision until September

U.S. Supreme Court holds off on Troy Davis decision until September. The Court has postponed its decision on whether to hear the appeal of Georgia death row inmate Troy Davis, whose innocence claims have caused an international outcry. Although a decision was expected today, the U.S. Supreme Court has opted to wait until it reconvenes in September — which will ward off a death warrant for Davis. Davis already has had 3 execution dates set over the past 3 years, and once came within hours of execution before a last-minute stay was granted.
