Anneliese MacPhail is the mother of slain officer Mark Allen MacPhail, the man who many believe Troy Davis killed on an August night in 1989.

He Has A Name: Troy Davis Executed At 11:08 PM EST

Last night, Davis was executed at 11:08pm (EST) for the murder of MacPhail and after 22 years, Mrs. MacPhail was filled with some closure, knowing that this entire ordeal had come to an end.

She told the Atlanta Constitutional Journal about Davis:

“I don’t hate him, the hate is gone. He disgusts me.”

As the hours passed by, MacPhail sat by the phone waiting to hear the news that the Supreme Court had denied a stay of execution for Davis, telling ACJ:

“I want my justice, I just want it done.”

It was an emotional night for the MacPhail family and rightfully so. Take a look at an interview MacPhail did with CNN’s Anderson Cooper.
