Apparently Garrett Rolfe, who has been fired from the force and is currently facing felony murder and other charges for shooting and killing Brooks, has been named as one of three officers involved in a 2015 incident where an unarmed, Black man named Jackie Jermaine Harris was also shot by police.

Harris was shot by officers during a car chase and arrest, according to court records and police incident reports obtained by CNN.

Three police reports were filed in relation to the incident, and yet only one mentioned that Harris was actually shot.

In January of 2016, Harris sent a letter to Judge Downs from jail while he was awaiting trial, writing, "I was shot at numerous times, and struck once in the back by an Atlanta Police Officer.

During that same hearing, Judge Downs called out the officers for not including the shooting in the incident report.
