That video is supposed to be monitored by two people at all times.
If those people had been doing their jobs (they were AWOL as far as I can tell), no one would have died.

Privacy in a jail cell?
Sorry but if my dollars are being spent holding an accused criminal in jail, they get no privacy.

"arrggg!!!....The more I read about this case the more I can't believe how incompetent the Atlanta Courthouse Security was...unbelieveable"Most all Americans are sharing your disbelief.
We can but hope that police agencies throughout this land are seriously looking at the problem, and not getting the "more taxes will fix this" syndrome.

TWO people paid by the taxpayers to watch
ONE camera and
NEITHER ONE does their job.
What a cluster****!!

Appears the victims were sacrificed on the alter of political correctness. My guess is black suspects are not supposed to be led into the courtroom handcuffed and shackled. It is not the Atlanta Way.

Hall, they said, followed accepted security procedures in dealing with a prisoner, even though they put her at risk. Policies allow one deputy to escort as many as four inmates at a time.Ouch.

< OMG, you are so right. Where were the people who were SUPPOSE to be monitoring the video!!!!!!!!!! >
I was working in our office (big complex) late one Saturday evening. I stepped into the elevator and it stopped between floors. No problem...there's a phone in the elevator that all you have to do is pickup and it rings at the guard shack, which is supposed to be manned at all times for just such emergencies. I got no answer. It's a long story as to how I got out 1 hour and 45 minutes later, but 2 people were fired on the following Monday. I also had to appear before the safety committee and give testimony as to what happened.
It's pretty amazing how lax people get about manning emergency positions.

In the past, many police agencies had minimum height standards. The idea was that big cops could handle bad guys, or prevent having to handle them in the first place by being big and intimidating. Of course, that excluded too many women. Besides, cops have guns, so that's an "equalizer", right? So, out the window with that discriminatory, outdated thinking.
The result? You get a "petite, 51-year-old woman" overpowered by a big, strong bad guy and killed by her own gun, with the bad guy using the same gun to kill several others. All sacrificed on the altar of political correctness. Thank goodness the news media are all over this angle, since it affects public safety...aren't they?

Atlanta your incompetence is for all to view world-wide. How many other large cities are like this?

Charge the guys who were supposed to be watching the monitor with criminally negligent homicide.

Nichols appears to know which key to use to unlock the holding area door and enters a vacant courtroom on the eighth floor.
This is odd.

I hope this Atlanta monkey business puts an end to those PC TV shows where tiny women kick the sh*t out of huge men.
Reality TV. Yeah right.

The problem is political correctness. A 51 year old petitie grandmother ought not to be guarding a 33 year old bodybuilder. This guy should have had some 6'5" 250 pound guard on him so that there was no chance of him being overpowered.
Police departments used to have height, weight and strength requirments, but those were all tossed out in the interests of political correctness. Had those standards been in place, this would not have happened.

In twenty years, in this same court-house, his defense attorney, Mumia-Abu Jamal, will be claiming the whole thing to be a frame up and that the guard had it coming.

Nichols should be the poster child for implementing trial by video conferencing from a real jail for all violent escape risk prisoners.....found guilty or just accused.
Let the older, fat or weak balifs and friends of the court handle the jury escorts vs the wild animals.

The muscular, 33-year-old Nichols then lunges at Hall, knocking the petite, 51-year-old woman backward into another cell.When the hell are we, as a society, going to say "Enough is enough!" with our radical feminist social experiment?!!!
