A Black man who served 16 years in prison for an armed robbery conviction that was later vacated was fatally shot by a Georgia sheriff's deputy during a traffic stop as he was driving to visit his mother in Florida.
It would be nice if the article at least mentioned what the grounds for arrest were. I’ve never been arrested for a speeding infraction, especially not one that is 20 over on the highway. Drive for five minutes in any direction and you’ll see that
16 years in prison for something he didnt do, 100% reasonable to resist arrest after that

The headline states the grounds for arrest clearly:
Yep, that’s standard procedure for Georgia.
