APD apologizes for death of Kathryn Johnston
The Atlanta Police Department has finally gotten around to apologizing for the death of Kathryn Johnston, who was killed in a botch drug raid three years ago this week:
“I take full responsibility for what happened. What happened to Mrs. Johnston was tragic,” said Atlanta Police Chief Richard Pennington. “I don’t think anybody ever apologized to the Johnston family. But I’d like to take this moment to personally apologize. You can’t have an ongoing healing process until someone steps up and say they were wrong.”Better late than never, I guess.

If I did not know any better, I would think it was election time for him.

They are lucky they got this much. This should have come long ago.
