The Impact of Gang Charges on Atlanta Defendants

The chapter delves into the process of voir dire for prospective jurors, the impact of indictments on Atlanta's perception, and defense attorneys' perspective on gang definitions in Georgia. It discusses the use of gang charges to intimidate and add sentencing time, highlighting cases like that of Walter D. K. Murphy, a co-founder of YSL, who faced RICO law violations despite serving time, and the challenges faced by individuals targeted for past crimes even after completing their sentences.
