Ex cop who killed Rayshard Brook is suing the City of Atlanta and Police for wrongful dismissal
Garrett Rolfe, the ex-Atlanta cop who shot and killed Rayshard Brooks during his arrest in a Wendy's parking lot, is suing Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms and the city's interim police chief Rodney Bryant, claiming his June 13 firing which was a day after Rayshard was killed contrary to city policy and his constitutional right to due process.
Rolfe argues that Rayshard violently resisted arrest before the fatal shooting and that he acted "within the scope and course of his duties" he used force.
The ex-cop claims that his firing violated the law that requires proper investigation, notice, and a hearing before firing him. Rolfe has been charged for felony and is currently out on bond.
