The Atlanta police are being *very* slow in identifying the decedent. I don’t see any reason why. The crowd was black, the man who defended them and shot the robber was black. Is it because the robber was black as well?

How about they don't want to expose the shooter to revenge by the perp's associates?

Decedent = dead guy. They are not identifying the dead guy.

It makes sense not to identify the armed defender. But they have had the dead guy on ice for a while. So why no ID on the dead guy?
