Atlanta FBI claim on slayings clashes with officials
FBI agent Mike Twibell says Director Webster was correct about the 23 slayings of young black people being substantially solved and that some victims were killed by parents. Officials dispute the claim as Atlanta mourns Larry Rogers, 20, found dead in an abandoned building amid a broader police hunt for a suspect. A $305,586 DHHS grant supports mental health services for affected children and families.
