Georgia State Rep. Trey Kelley appeared in court Friday for a hearing regarding a motion to quash the indictment related to a fatal crash that happened two years ago
Like It or Not
OPINION: On the night of September 11, 2019, State Representative Trey Kelley received a phone call from a friend who had hit a cyclist with his car and kept going. 90 minutes later, that bike rider died. William Perry thinks that Kelley should resign from office and face felony charges- but do you think justice has been served?
OPINION: At least nine Georgians have been arrested for storming the capitol, and a recent protest saw armed militia members demonstrating at the state capitol building. George Chidi thinks these militias are no joke. He says that Georgia has the laws to take them down before things escalate- state district attorneys just have to enforce them. Do you think it’s time to take action?
The legislation was passed by the Georgia House of Representatives during the 2021 Georgia General Assembly session, with three Democrats voting in favor of the bill.
