Update: Troy Davis died at 11:08pm Georgia time. The media who were allowed inside will be coming out to do interviews with the other press.
Update: At 10:22pm, Democracy Now! reports that the Supreme Court has denied the stay. It seems expected that Troy Davis will be executed soon.
10:41pm: DN! reports that prison officials say that Troy Davis will be executed in about a half hour. (I think they may have said “within the hour”, I think the process of strapping Troy Davis down may be starting now.)
