Murder of Manuel Esteban Páez Terán – “Cop City” Shooting

This series follows the death of Manuel Esteban Páez Terán during a police clearing operation in the South River Forest of Georgia. The story moves through the tense moments of the raid, the chaotic exchange that left one person dead and an officer wounded, the forensic battle over what happened inside a closed tent, and the national fallout that erupted when evidence failed to produce a single clear truth. Each chapter escalates the pressure between state power, protest resistance, and the limits of forensic certainty.
