CNN is reporting that the US Supreme Court has issues a reprieve less than two hours before his scheduled execution. According to some reports, many had asked Georgia to grant Davis a new trial: celebrities like Susan Sarandon, Harry Belafonte and the Indigo Girls; world leaders such as former President Carter, Archbishop Desmond Tutu and Pope Benedict XVI; and former and current U.S. lawmakers like Bob Barr, Carolyn Moseley Braun and John Lewis.

This is good news and it will be an interesting case to follow now. Stay tuned as I am sure you will see more updates on it!

plotting goodness....
