JACKSON, Ga. -- The U.S. Supreme Court granted a stay of execution for Georgia inmate Troy Davis late Tuesday afternoon, just two hours before he was set to be put to death for the 1989 murder of a Savannah police officer.
Davis, 39, had been scheduled to be put to death at 7 p.m. at the Georgia Diagnostic and Classification Prison in downstate Jackson, for the Aug. 19, 1989, killing of Savannah Police Officer Mark MacPhail.
The execution has been delayed by at least one week, while the Supreme Court reviews the case.
