Residents of Athens, Georgia are calling for the mayor's resignation following the tragic murder of Lakin Riley. The mayor's recent comments at a news conference attributing the city's lenient immigration policies to the incident have sparked outrage among the community.
A concerned lifelong resident of Athens is spearheading a rally titled 'Make Athens Safe Again' in response to the tragedy. The rally is scheduled for Tuesday, March 5th at 5:30 PM at City Hall. The organizer emphasized the urgency of addressing safety concerns in the city, citing a recent uptick in crime rates and homelessness.
