It is said that US investigative authorities have not yet obtained evidence to apply hate crime charges to Atlanta shooters.
The Associated Press cited two law enforcement officials on Thursday, saying that federal investigators have yet to find the evidence they need to apply the hate crime charges against the Atlanta shooter who killed eight people on the 16th.
On the third day of the incident, shooter Robert Aaron Long is known to have found no evidence, such as online postings or trouble messages that reveal this tendency.
Georgian authorities say investigations are still underway and all options are being discussed, including applying state-level hate crime charges.
