The Fulton County, Ga., district attorney who charged former Atlanta police officer Garrett Rolfe with murder seems to be more concerned about politics than he is about justice, Rep. Doug Collins, R-Ga., said Sunday. "In our country justice is supposed to be blind to ... race, socioeconomic conditions, and also supposed to be blind to politics," Collins said. Responding to Collins' calls for Howard's recusal, Atlanta Attorney General Chris Carr tweeted that his "office can appoint another prosecutor if a DA disqualifies himself/herself or a court disqualifies him/her." "What we have to have here is justice for these officers," he went on. And when they see this consistently happening, especially in the last couple of weeks with this district attorney, it makes it hard to get up and go to work.
