“We want to thank and acknowledge Tyler Perry, who we spoke with, who will be taking care of the funeral for the family,” attorney L. Chris Stewart, who represents Brooks’ family, said at a news conference today. “It’s support like that and it’s people who are actually in this community — that love the community, that want healing and families like this to never have to go through something like this — to step forward.
The incident led to mass protests in the Georgia capital and elsewhere, including the burning of the Wendy’s restaurant. Atlanta Police Chief Erika Shields resigned over the weekend, and Garrett Rolfe, the officer who shot Brooks, has been fired. A second officer on the scene was placed on administrative leave. Fulton County District Attorney Paul Howard said he hopes to have a decision by Wednesday as to whether to file charges in the case.
