Former district attorney Jackie Johnson is charged with violating her oath of office and hindering a law enforcement officer.
A former Georgia prosecutor was indicted on misconduct charges alleging she used her position to shield the men who chased and killed Ahmaud Arbery from being charged with crimes immediately after the shootings. A grand jury in coastal Glynn County indicted former Brunswick Judicial Circuit District Attorney Jackie Johnson Thursday on charges of violating her oath of office and hindering a law enforcement officer. The indictment resulted from an investigation Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr requested last year into local prosecutors’ handling of Arbery’s slaying after a cellphone video of the shooting and a delay in charges sparked a national outcry.
