The prosecutorial handover of these cases to Georgia’s Republican AG is deeply concerning, _Jahan writes.
. On Friday, the district attorney of DeKalb County, Sherry Boston, announced that she’ll no longer take part in their prosecutions, which will now be overseen by Georgia’s Republican attorney general, Chris Carr.Over the last several months, DA Boston and her team have been involved in ongoing discussions with their law enforcement partners about the evidence and charges in those cases.
Moving forward, the Georgia Attorney General’s Office will handle the prosecution of the pending cases. Under Georgia law both state and local prosecutors have jurisdiction to pursue indictments of certain offenses, including domestic terrorism. “My team and I have worked diligently to reach a consensus with the Attorney General’s Office on charging decisions in these cases,” said DA Boston. “At this point, I have decided it is best that we allow them to move forward with the charges they feel are warranted.”that the Georgia AG had denied Boston’s request to drop domestic terrorism charges against a Southern Poverty Law Center legal observer who was arrested at the construction site in March.
