Dem Georgia Mayor Kelly Girtz mercilessly heckled over ‘sanctuary city’ policies after disturbing murder of Laken Riley

A Georgia mayor was brutally heckled at a press conference Wednesday over his perceived “sanctuary city” policies following the murder of nursing student Laken Riley, allegedly at the hands of a Venezuelan migrant.

“You’re a liar!” one man shouted at Athens Mayor Kelly Girtz, according to a report by Fox News Digital. “You’re the one who is guilty and got blood on your hands for this murder, sir!”

Athens does not have an official sanctuary city policy, but Girtz has come under fire for what critics call a soft stance on immigration, including signing a 2019 city resolution that declared the county “is welcoming to people from all lands and backgrounds.”
