A grand jury should have brought charges against the former police officers involved in the fatal shooting outside a Wendy’s in Georgia, Attorney General William Barr said.

He also raised concerns about Fulton County District Attorney Paul Howard bringing the charges against former officers Garrett Rolfe and Devin Brosnan, as opposed to a grand jury.
