Third Atlanta Police Officer Pleads Guilty In Fatal Shooting of Elderly Woman

Last update: 8:03 p.m. EDT Oct. 30, 2008
WASHINGTON, Oct 30, 2008 /PRNewswire-USNewswire via COMTEX/ -- The Justice Department announced today that former Atlanta Police Department (APD) Officer Arthur Bruce Tesler pleaded guilty in federal district court to conspiring to violate the civil rights of Kathryn Johnston, 92, in connection with her fatal shooting during the execution of an illegal search warrant at her Atlanta home on Nov.21, 2006.
...
Under Tesler's plea agreement, the parties agreed that the appropriate sentence under the advisory federal sentencing guidelines is 121 months. The federal sentence will run concurrently with Tesler's 54 month state sentence arising from the same criminal conduct.
 
If she had been gunned down by black gang bangers they would have sought the death penalty. But since this gangs colors included badges and the seal of approval from the city of Atlanta and the state of Georgia they get a measly ass 15 years from both the state and the fed. Justice has not been served. But like Tupac says, "Just one more hungy mouth off welfare"

If you kill one of theirs during one of their home invasions you will likely get a death penalty.

Absolutely, and you hit it right on the head, this was nothing more than an home invasion. They lied to get the warrant, they lied to cover it up. I don't support the death penalty but these cops should spend the rest of their natural lives in prison.

I agree wholeheartedly. They robbed her of the rest of her life. However long that may have been it was all she had. This is despicable.

They should spend the rest of their lives in prison in General Population.

(of course, that would probably mean a sentences of about 15 mins)

The problem is, WM, we armed folks don't go quietly.

If you can't get us all at once, the ones left get kinda unruly.
