SHOOTING: One week later, she still says nothing

One week after 88-year-old Kathryn Johnston was gunned down in her home by Atlanta Police under mysterious circumstances, Mayor Franklin has finally issued a statement:'

“I certainly share the concern that all of us have about the loss of Ms. Kathryn Johnston. The Atlanta Police Department in an honest effort to be transparent has turned this case over to the Federal and State agencies and is cooperating fully as they investigate the incident. The community deserves the truth and I am confident that this will be accomplished through the thorough investigation. Our prayers are with the families of Ms. Johnston and the Atlanta Police Officers.”

A woman is killed in her home. The police lied about the circumstances which led to the warrant (first they said an "undercover officer" bought drugs, then they said a "confidential informant" bought drugs). The confidential informant, whom the police have described as "reliable" has since accused the police of asking him to lie.

And all you're willing to say is that you're "concerned."

Thanks for nothing, Mayor Franklin.

Is it too late to get Time magazine to print a correction?

A Mayor Bloomberg is too much to ask for, I know, but I'd settle for a Vernon Jones.
