[edit] Franklin blasted for limiting access to police records

"The city of Atlanta’s attempt to limit Citizen Review Board access to police files came under heavy fire Wednesday.

About a dozen citizens joined five city council members in blasting Mayor Shirley Franklin’s plan to reduce the group’s access to criminal investigation files.

“I cannot support something that will dilute (the board’s) power,” Atlanta City Council member H. Lamar Willis said. “There’s nothing to discuss.”"
