Experts criticize recent arrests of 'Cop City' protesters as overreach.

Three activists protesting against the construction of a police and fire department training center known as "Cop City" near Atlanta have been arrested and charged under a little-known Georgia law. The arrests have raised concerns about the state's criminal justice system and its use of the law to silence speech critical of the government. The activists were charged with felony intimidation of a law enforcement officer after leaving a flyer on mailboxes in Cartersville, calling a policeman who lived in the neighborhood a "murderer" for participating in the shooting and killing of activist Manuel Paez Terán. The arrests have been described as "overreach" and have sparked concerns about first amendment rights.
