The execution of a Georgia inmate was recently stayed by the U.S. Supreme Court during a special hearing held just hours before the man was scheduled to be put to death.
On September 23, the execution of Troy Anthony Davis, 39, was postponed for a second time. Davis was convicted of murdering a police officer in Georgia.
Davis and his family insist that he is innocent and hope that they will now have time to press forward with requests for a new criminal trial.
