Deja News: How Atlanta reacted to the JFK assassination 60 years ago
Lee Harvey Oswald, suspected assassin of President John F. Kennedy, reacts as Dallas night club owner Jack Ruby, foreground, shoots at him from point-blank range in a corridor of Dallas police headquarters. At left is Detective Jim Leavelle. Leavelle wanted to secretly take Oswald out the side door of Dallas police headquarters on that day forty-five years ago. His boss wanted to keep a promise to reporters. So Leavelle handcuffed himself to President Kennedy's assassin, stepped into a crowded basement and became an accidental part of history. (AP Photo/Dallas Times-Herald, Bob Jackson)

Deja News: Why Atlanta’s notorious, disbanded Red Dog unit is back in the news
071004.  ATLANTA.  Members of the Atlanta Police Department's Red Dog unit, which focuses most of its efforts on the open-air drug market, works the streets of Atlanta on 10/4/07.  Since the Neale Street shooting scandal, APD's narcotics unit has been shutdown, giving mid-level drug dealers a free pass, so to speak.  Since the shutdown of the narcotics unit, the primarily drug policing unit, which never stopped, is the Red Dog unit.  Pictured is Red Dog officer Craig Condon cq with a young man they arrested at 1145 Simpson Rd, where they confiscated a small amount of marijuana.  For Cameron McWhirter story.  RICH ADDICKS/STAFF
