Georgia state troopers who fatally shot an activist near Atlanta will not face charges, as their use of deadly force was deemed 'objectively reasonable.'
The use of deadly force by Georgia state troopers who shot and killed an activist at the site of a planned police and firefighter training center near Atlanta was 'objectively reasonable' and no charges will be sought against them, a prosecutor said Friday. Opponents, who derisively refer to the planned center as 'Cop City,' had occupied an 85-acre tract of forest that is being developed for the massive facility. It is there that Manuel Paez Teran was killed.
Mountain Judicial Circuit District Attorney George Christian announced his decision not to pursue charges in a news release. He was appointed to review the Georgia Bureau of Investigation file on the Jan. 18 shooting of Paez Terán after DeKalb County District Attorney Sherry Boston recused herself from the case. State troopers were part of an 'enforcement operation' at the site when they encountered Paez Terán, who was known as Tortuguita.

Georgia Power will pay $413 million to settle lawsuit over nuclear reactor cost overrunsGeorgia Power Co. will pay $413 million to settle a lawsuit accusing the utility of reneging on financial promises to one of its nuclear reactor partners. The payments to Oglethorpe Power Corp. were announced Friday. They could hold down future bills for millions of electric cooperative customers in Georgia. Oglethorpe sued Georgia Power in June 2022 in a contract dispute over who should pay for cost overruns at Plant Vogtle. Atlanta based Southern Co. owns Georgia Power and will write off a $152 million loss. Georgia Power also now says that it must replace one of the pumps that cools Vogtle's Unit 4 reactor after operators found a problem with the pump’s motor.
