Assistant Chief Tyus also openly boasted to the committee that his officers carried out a likely unconstitutional pretextual arrest to stop a passerby from filming officers who were conducting a SWAT raid on #StopCopCity protesters in the Atlanta forest.

NEW: Atlanta PD Releases Bodycam Footage from Deadly Jan. 18 #StopCopCity Forest Raid: unicornriot.ninja/2023/atlanta-p…

The footage does not directly show the fatal shooting of Manuel 'Tortuguita' Paez Terán but reveals the details of what Atlanta PD officers said & thought at the time.
Approximately 18 minutes into one video, gunshots ring out off camera and the police stop in their tracks. Four gunshots are heard, quickly followed by another 16, before the barrage blends together and individual shots become indistinguishable.
Atlanta PD officers at the scene remarked that the shots sounded like they came from a firearm with a suppressor - this is likely consistent with the suppressors seen on assault rifles carried by Georgia State Patrol SWAT that day.

'Cop City' Advisory Committee Removes Environmental Engineer Who Went Public About Toxic Pollution At Site

At a June 21, 2022 meeting, the Atlanta Public Safety Training Center Community Stakeholder Advisory Committee kicked out engineer Lily Ponitz over community objections.
Ponitz had previously noted the Atlanta Police Foundation's contractors' site plan didn't address known lead, barium and cadmium contamination.

An email to the committee said Ponitz hoped "to not let this project slide through with half-done due diligence and a rubber stamp."
Committee member Shaun Billingslea spoke in favor of keeping Ponitz on, saying he saw a "generational divide" on the committee where older committee members were eager to remove members who disagreed with them.

Committee member Anne Phillips had previously bashed "millennials."

'Cop City' Advisory Committee Calls Protesting "Mental Illness" & "Terrorism", Moves To Ban Environmental Engineer

Excerpts from 5/29/22 meeting - full recording here: [h/t @atlanta_press]
In a May '22 meeting, the 'Cop City' Community Stakeholder Advisory Committee began kicking out environmental engineer Lily Ponitz after Ponitz went public about the committee ignoring soil & water contamination at the site.

One member worried that the group was "witch hunting."
Ponitz had previously raised concerns about lead, barium and cadmium contamination that the Atlanta Police Foundation's contractors were not addressing in their site plan, & received no substantive response.

Ponitz later reported being "bullied" by committee chair Alison Clark.

'Cop City': 5/31/22 Atlanta Public Safety Training Center Community Stakeholders Advisory Committee Zoom Mtg

In this 'Cop City' advisory meeting, Co-Chairs Alison Clark and Sharon Williams move a vote to kick environmental engineer Lily Ponitz off the committee.

They openly discuss the vote as an act of retaliation for statements Ponitz made to the media and to Atlanta City Council.
Ponitz, the only engineer in these meetings not bankrolled by the Atlanta Police Foundation, had contacted media & local officials about alleged falsehoods and apparently deliberate oversights in the environmental review phase of the 'Cop City' project.
