Georgia-Trooper-Driver Slain
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.

A statue, seen from behind, depicting Chief Tomochichi, a Muscogee native who signed the 1733 treaty that launched the Georgia colony, stands at a temporary location in Atlanta, Dec. 20, 2021. The statue was intended for a park honoring civil rights figures, but Muscogee Nation historians call their ancestor a traitor who was complicit in genocide. They also say the statue is inaccurate — he would have been fully clothed, not clutching a bear pelt. (AP Photo / Michael Warren)
