NPR's 'Puff Piece" On Leftist Atlanta Gunman Has Stirred Up MAJOR Controversy

Antifa-supporting journalist Kaity Radde made several false claims in her piece, including that the accused cop-shooter had his hands up when he was killed and that the officer shot by the gunman was hit by friendly fire. However, according to FOX 5, the Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI) stated that law enforcement officers killed Terán in self-defense after he shot a state trooper and refused to follow verbal commands.

The incident occurred in an Antifa-controlled autonomous zone called "Cop City," where Terán was found camped out in a tent in the woods. The GBI has reported that no footage of the actual shooting exists, but the Atlanta Police Department shared video captured by one trooper who heard the shooting take place. This video has fueled conspiracy theories from supporters of the Antifa gunman, with the family's lawyer saying it confirmed their "worst fears that Manuel was massacred in a hail of gunfire."

Despite this claim, the APD has stated that the officers heading towards the sound of several gunshots were simply speculating on what the multiple gunshots could have been. They had no immediate knowledge of the events at the shooting site at the time of the shooting.

The family of Terán has ordered repeated private autopsies to get the results they want after the GBI concluded he was killed in self-defense. However, as The Post Millennial's Andy Ngo reported, the slain Antifa-occupied autonomous zone radical seriously wounded a Georgia state trooper, and forensic ballistics testing matched the bullet to his pistol. The family's second private autopsy has not been released. Kaity Radde, who has previously argued that Antifa "isn't a terrorist organization," publicly endorsed the results of the private autopsy.

The narrative that law enforcement targeted Terán for no good reason has led to waves of violence on the Atlanta Police Department, with the "Treehouse Antifa" account tweeting after the shooting, "Consider this a call for reciprocal violence to be done to the police and their allies. On Friday, January 20, wherever you are, you are invited to participate in a night of rage in order to honor the memory of our fallen comrade." The “night of rage” included other incidents, storefronts were smashed, and police cars were set on fire.

Radde followed unsubstantiated information and depicted Terán as innocent in her NPR piece, not considering that he was part of Antifa that took over the Cop City area and attacked officers.

The "Cop City" autonomous zone was created by Antifa affiliates who want to stop the new APD training center from being built. After the most recent violent attack, 23 Antifa members were charged with domestic terrorism for firebombing the construction zone this past weekend, according to FOX 5. More Antifa sympathizers protested for the release of their comrades on Thursday, holding a "free them all" rally in the streets of Atlanta.
