Atlanta DA Paul Howard Said Taser is a “Deadly Weapon” Just Two Weeks Ago
By Jim Hoft
Today He Said Rayshard Brooks Shooting a Taser at Cops Was “Not a Threat”
Fulton County District Attorney Paul L. Howard, Jr. announced charges on Wednesday afternoon in the death of Rayshard Brooks last weekend at a Wendy’s restaurant in Atlanta.
Brooks was killed by police after resisting arrest, wrestling with the police, punching one officer in the face, stealing the officer’s taser and then firing on the officers.
DA Howard, Jr. says officials spoke to three witnesses and reviewed eight videos of the attempted arrest and shooting.
Eleven charges were announced including felony murder by the officer involved in the shooting of Rayshard Brooks.
And then Paul Howard added this: Rayshard Brooks was never notified he was under arrest(?) and was “never a threat.” WTH?
