(The Center Square) — Georgia lawmakers continue exploring the Fulton County Jail, and leaders of a special subcommittee say their probe isn t political.
The ACLU of Georgia and the Southern Center for Human Rights shared suggestions to deal with overcrowding at the embattled Fulton County Jail and police violence in Atlanta in a joint press conference on Thursday.
The Fulton County sheriff says moving inmates to South Georgia and Mississippi is a necessary step to make the jail safe, but local activists don't agree with his plan.
