Bent Cops No Knocks. Requests For Search Warrants All But Stop

Magistrate Court as part of a federal grand jury investigation into misconduct by the Atlanta narcotics squad, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution has learned.

Jones said his team was also looking at warrants obtained by other of officers
We are exploring ... just how widespread that type of conduct was
and where exactly it goes beyond those beyond those two that obviously have pleaded guilty," Jones said.

Several Atlanta defense attorneys, meanwhile, hailed the dropoff in warrants as further evidence that officers' tactics prior to Johnston's death were suspect. more

Graphic !!! WTF is this shite?
