A police lieutenant in Georgia who was recorded on video during a traffic stop saying "we only kill black people" is being fired, the police chief said Thursday. They're not indicative of the values that I'm trying to instill within the Cobb County police department and that I believe the county holds." Abbott, who had been an officer for 28 years, was placed on administrative duties while the department investigated the video. "Police misconduct is not news," said Ben Williams, chairman of the Cobb County chapter of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference. "The real story here, in my opinion, is the behavior of this police chief in Cobb County, Georgia."
