Cop City: Judge Denies Bond to People Rounded Up in Mass Arrest for Opposing Police Training Facility

In Atlanta, a judge has denied bond for 8 of the people indiscriminately arrested at a music festival against the proposed Cop City" police training facility in the Weelaunee Forest. Jailed since March 5, they are charged with domestic terrorism based on scant evidence like muddy clothes or simply being in the area at the time of the festival. We're joined by Micah Herskind, an Atlanta community organizer, who calls the charges political prosecutions" and a blatant attempt to repress this social movement that is trying to stop Cop City."
