City gets more time to investigate Atlanta Eagle case
The city of Atlanta has been granted three weeks more to complete two investigations into a 2009 raid at a Midtown gay bar -- an internal police probe and an investigation by a former federal prosecutor.
In exchange, the findings of those investigations and all supporting documents will be public documents.
A federal judge ordered the extension Wednesday after the city said it needed more time “to achieve a more meaningful and comprehensive report” on the Atlanta Police Department's and the City Law Department's handling of the Atlanta Eagle bar raid matter.
The new deadline is June 27.
