David Cooke: Former DA for the Macon Judicial Circuit
"The fact that she has a special grand jury shows that she's not backing down from doing this case," said David Cooke, a former district attorney for the Macon Judicial Circuit in Georgia. "Her number one goal is getting justice and protecting the integrity of the case."

Sheriff Labat & Antonio Lewis: Atlanta City Council Member

“Nobody should be confused about the fact that you’re going into a whirlwind,” Robert James, the former district attorney in DeKalb County, said. “If this is what she chooses to do based on the facts and the evidence, from what I know about her as a prosecutor, she’s smart enough and tough enough to handle it.”
“She is a hard-charging, tough trial lawyer,” Atlanta defense attorney Page Pate said. “I would never question her ethics. I would never question her diligence or her intelligence. She is a bulldog when she thinks she’s on the right side.”
