Five police officers from metropolitan Atlanta have been implicated in a crime ring linked to a murder, an armed robbery and numerous burglaries. According to police in Clayton County, south of Atlanta, the officers may have had a common link through their interest in bodybuilding. Three officers have been charged with last month’s murder of a man who owned a nude dance club. Two are from suburban Riverdale in Clayton County and one is from Fulton County, which embraces most of Atlanta. Police said two officers have also been charged in the armed robbery of a hardware store.
