This week, the Georgia Attorney General's Office dropped some of the more frivolous charges in the "Stop Cop City" case.
As Reason has previously reported, state prosecutors have indicted more than 60 people on racketeering charges related to the protests against the construction of a police training facility near Atlanta; opponents call the project "Cop City" and march under the banner "Stop Cop City." The majority of those indicted were not alleged to have committed any crimes more severe than misdemeanor trespassing.
