Gerald A. Griggs Update: The family of Nygil Cullins files wrongful death lawsuit against the city of Atlanta two years after police shot and killed him while he was allegedly in mental distress. Cullins was one of a record 112 police shootings in Georgia in 2022. wabe.org/parents-file-w…
Meanwhile, Gerald A. Griggs: “I find it very difficult to believe that 103 shootings in GA are all justified. And you know, I’ve been practicing law long enough to know that it’s very difficult to justify a hundred shootings … and say all of them were not violative of the law.”
“We know that this election cycle is really crucial and it’s on the backs of every Black voter.'
— Dominik Whitehead, NAACP's VP of Campaigns on the Building
