ajc.com : Tech officer who shot, killed student won’t face charges.

Fulton County District Attorney Paul Howard has decided not to bring criminal charges against a Georgia Tech police officer who shot and killed a student armed only with a multi-tool.
“[...] all of the available evidence indicates Schultz decided to take his own life by provoking police officers to shoot him,”
Howard said in a statement. Two use-of-force experts contracted by the DA’s office concluded the shooting was justified, Howard said. Attorney Chris Stewart, who represents Schultz’s parents, said the “suicide by cop” defense doesn’t justify the shooting.
“There’s no such thing,” Stewart said. “It’s disappointing to see the DA perpetuate this myth.”
