Horrific as it sounds yes that's the most apt words to describe the case of Troy Davis. Specially in todays day and age where science and technology is so improved and sophisticated that one expects way more in terms of proofs and evidences to even imprison an accused let alone condemn them to death.

But question is now who's going to ensure such cases will not reoccur? who will apply the necessary preasure?what with the great rise in oppresive powerful regimes killing and torturing their subjects openly, who can afford to point fingures and demand reforms?Its a free world...I think not!
