Sherry Boston is the Georgia prosecutor who without a valid legal basis charged dozens of peaceful Cop City protestors as "terrorists" and jailed them without trial. I consider her a major human rights violator and an embarrassment to those she serves. Shameful abuse of power.

My god. The autopsy shows bullet exit wounds through both of Tort's hands, indicating that their hands were raised when they were murdered. "The autopsy further reveals that Manuel was most probably in a seated position, cross-legged when killed." ajc.com/news/crime/family-ac…

The police's guilt-by-association allegations aren't designed to get convictions, but to break up a movement.

A group of around 15 people are handing out Stop Cop City flyers across downtown Atlanta. Police have responded with over 50 cops and SWAT.

Mayor Dickens Cancel the Lease Mayor Andre Dickens, the corrupt Atlanta Police Foundation, corporations, and local foundations are trying to destroy hundreds of acres of the South River Forest to build a massive militarized police training compound. Local residents and community groups are opposed to the project - but the Mayor still wants to lease the land to the Atlanta Police Foundation for just $10 a year! On January 18th Georgia State Police shot and killed a protestor name Tortuguita, who was camping in the South River Forest to oppose the project. Clear evidence has a emerged of a police cover up of Tortuguita's murder. Cop City is bad for the community, and bad for the environment. We must defend the forest and stop this senseless and violent project now! Call Mayor Dickens and demand that he cancel the lease and Stop Cop City: 404-330-6100, ext 2 Justice for Tortuguita! #StopCopCity

I am finally going through my footage from last night. I didn't catch the first moment on film because it happened so quickly as they entered the forest that I didn't have my phone out yet. But I got this one. Holy shit y'all I got it.

The Stop #CopCity week of action is coming up. Let’s take a min to talk about what it means that police are going after the Weelaunee forest to build a playground to practice and master urban warfare strategies to be unleashed upon Atlanta’s predominantly Black residents. 🧵
