Former Atlanta Police Chief Erica Shields, who “resigned” after the police killing of #RayshardBrooks , put up a billboard in downtown #Atlanta recruiting officers to join the #Louisville Metro Police Department where she currently serves as the police chief.
UPDATE: Charges dropped for #RayshardBrooks ' killers
'The prosecutor is not talking about the preservation of life, they're talking about what's allowable under the law - Well, who wrote the laws, and who are the laws designed to protect? Definitely not people like Mr. Brooks.'
Today I’m remembering #RayshardBrooks and #SecorieaTurner . I’m remembering that the people of Atlanta burned a Wendy’s and took it upon ourselves to create a Peace Center. Instead we’re facing #CopCity and a $1B jail. #FucktheFourth always.
Candace Owens had no empathy for #GoergeFloyd #BreonnaTaylor #AhmaudArbery #RayshardBrooks #BothamJean or any Black person murdered by police.
She had nothing kind to say about #ElijahCummings or #JohnLewis .
But she’s heartbroken over the death of a repugnant white supremacist.
2 years ago today, 27 year old #rayshardbrooks was shot and killed in a Wendy's parking lot after falling asleep. Officer Garrett Rolfe was fired the next day. On May 5, 2021, Rolfe's firing was reversed and he was reinstated to the Atlanta Police Department with back pay.
NEW: #Georgia NAACP President Gerald A. Griggs on charges dropped against APD officers in #rayshardbrooks case. “There is no statute of limitations on a murder case, and there will be no statute of limitations on our efforts to ensure there is justice for #rayshardbrooks ,”

Shooting a man in the back while he is running away with a non lethal weapon isn’t justifiable. #RayshardBrooks #Sayhjsname Present the case to a grand jury!
Atty. Monique Pressley (practicing?) was just on #RolandMartinUnfiltered questioning whether #RayshardBrooks encounter w/ 🐷 was truly an injustice. Now she’s in cornrows on stage “outside” talking abt #PamelaTurner ? 🥱 #vickidillard 👣Follow me Vicki Dillard
Atlanta will pay $1M to the family of #RayshardBrooks — a Black man shot and killed by police weeks after the killing of George Floyd.
A district attorney had charged 2 officers, but prosecutors said in Aug. they would not pursue them, saying the officers 'committed no crimes.'
