Meanwhile in Atlanta, prosecutors say they will seek charges against three police officers involved in the shooting death of an elderly African-American woman. The victim, Kathryn Johnston, was at least 88 years old. She was killed after firing on the police officers after they broke into her home. One of the officers has admitted they obtained a search warrant by lying about information from a police informant. Despite the indictments, Johnston’s family says it wants the prosecutor to back off so as not endanger a broader federal investigation by the FBI.
