Outrage! Did Incompetence Contribute to the Death of Officers Bryant and Barker?

Please read the AJC story HERE. It will make your stomach turn. If not for the failure of the probation officer to simply do their job, Officer Barker and Bryant might be alive today.

Cop killing William Woodard was arrested for a previous burglary. Why did all parties involved, including the arresting Atlanta Police Officer not appear for the probable cause hearing, causing Woodard to be released?

There should be an investigation into Magistrate Court to insure procedures were followed. If procedures were not followed, then someone needs to be held accountable.

We have two (2) officers dead and it appears it could have been avoided. Is anyone outraged or is this just a newspaper story to end up on the bottom of a birdcage?

Where is our Chief?

Yes, there should be outrage!

This is a story that seems to repeat itself.

If I'm not mistaken, wasn't the triggerman in Eve Carson's murder(Student Body President of UNC and Athens Native)a parolee that fell thru the cracks.
