Troy Davis Killed, Amanda Knox Acquitted

By: Percy Olive

Troy Davis, electricuted, and Amanda Knox acquitted! What makes the difference in these two cases? Besides

color is that she is a woman and he is a man? Amanda Knox was supposed to be sentenced to 25 years for the

death of her room mate, but unfortuanetly the only one who was convicted was her friend, drug dealer Rudy

Guede, to 26 years in a separate term. Now tell me how can a man be executed for something 22 years ago

and its crazy how this woman where all the evidence lead to her, lead her to be released and acquitted. But

a man who had no signs of the killing, the man who had people recant their stories, and this man is now dead

and she is free. So if our world still racist, yes i think so. But is our world fair, I doubt it will ever be fair for African

American ever.
