In the aftermath of the incident, Felicia Franklin has come forward with claims that she was drugged prior to her encounter with the police. She maintains that her impaired state was not due to voluntary alcohol consumption, but rather the result of someone surreptitiously spiking her drink. As a consequence of the incident and the subsequent public scrutiny, Franklin was terminated from her position as vice chairman of the Clayton County Board of Commissioners. In response, she has announced her intention to file a lawsuit against Clayton County, alleging wrongful termination and seeking to clear her name. Franklin, who made history as the first African American and the first woman to serve as vice chairman of the Clayton County Board of Commissioners, now faces the challenge of defending her reputation and fighting for her political career in the face of this controversial incident. The Law&Crime Network’s Elizabeth Millner breaks down the case.
