No he just fell for it. It was fabricated doubt, had these groups gone after the witnesses and tried to sway their testimony during the trial they all could have been held in contempt and even criminal charges of witness tampering.
From the talkmaster "Heres a link to an article by Toby Harnden in the Telegraph of London. http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/news/tobyharnden/100106968/american-way-the-shallow-anti-americanism-of-the-%E2%80%9Ci-am-troy-davis%E2%80%9D-crowd/ He titled it The Shallow anti-Americanism of the I am Troy Davis crowd. The prevailing story, of course, was that Troy Davis was completely innocent of killing that police officer in cold blood. The other guy did it. And we know the other guy did it because seven of the nine witnesses to the crime recanted their testimony about 20 years later. Here are some things you will learn if you read Harndens article or take the time to read the trial transcript. (Im plowing through it right now.) The jury was made up of seven blacks and five whites. Yeah a real racist jury. The seven out of nine witnesses who recanted their testimony? There were actually 34 witnesses at trial, not nine. There were nine witnesses who gave eye-witness testimony. Troy Daviss street name was Rah. That stands for Rough as Hell. Thats interesting because if there is a hell thats where he is. About those two eye-witnesses who later recanted their testimony. In a hearing ordered by the Supreme Court to consider these recantations the judge ruled that two of them did not testify any differently than in the original trial. Two others simply lacked any credibility. The fifth recanting witness was a jailhouse snitch who made it clear in the initial trial that he was an accomplished liar. What about the remaining two eye-witnesses who recanted their testimony? Daviss lawyers wouldnt even put them on the stand when the Supreme Court ordered a evidentiary hearing. So much for them. After the Supreme Court ordered hearing Judge William Moore who was appointed by Bill Clinton, by the way --- ruled that the so-called fresh evidence from Daviss lawyers amounted to little more than smoke and mirrors.

Not what I stated nor what the article concerning him stated. Point to where I said HE fabricated the doubt?
