This image from a dashboard-mounted video camera on a Georgia State Patrol cruiser shows Trooper 1st Class Jake Thompson at the scene of an Aug. 7, 2020, shooting in which the trooper killed motorist Julian Lewis in Screven County, Ga. Thompson knocked Lewis' car into a ditch and shot him after trying to pull over the 60-year-old Black man for a broken taillight. Thompson was fired and charged with murder, but walked free after a grand jury declined to indict him. The newly released video raises new questions about the shooting.

Election 2024 Trump Burgum Pipeline
FILE - Republican presidential candidate North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum speaks during a debate, Sept. 27, 2023, in Simi Valley, Calif. Burgum is one of Donald Trump’s most visible and vocal backers, sprinting around the country to drum up support while auditioning to be his running mate.

Adrian Perkins
Adrian Perkins sits for a portrait in his office in Chicago, Thursday, June 13, 2024. When Perkins was running for reelection as mayor of Shreveport, La., in 2022, a satirical TV commercial, paid for by a rival political action committee, used artificial intelligence to depict Perkins as a high school student who had been called into the principal’s office. Although the ad was labeled as being created with "deep learning computer technology," he didn’t have enough money or campaign staff to counteract it, and thinks it was one of many reasons he lost the race.
