Benchmark #1
- Who are the main players in Davis' story?
- What happened when he was arrested, and what has happened since?
- Where are we? What scenery or backdrops are present in Davis' story?
- Why is he still incarcerated? What evidence exists that might prove his innocence?
- Which argument against capital punishment does Davis' case exemplify?
- The main players are of course Troy Davis, the homeless man, the victim Mark Mac Phail, President Jimmy Carter, Georgia Congressman John Lewis and 250,000 other supporters.
- He was already pin pointed for the murder of the police officer when all he was doing was going to the aid of the homeless man. He was supposed to get executed but the governor sent a request to stop it, so he's not getting executed and not pretty sure if he is anytime soon.
- We are in the lethal injection room and the jail cell that he is assigned to.
- He is still incarcerated because the governor stopped it and he might be proven guilty because something they overlooked and probably missed.
- I'm not really sure at this point because i haven't explored capital punishment.
