District Attorney Shalena Cook Jones says she's dropping charges against six people in three murder cases.

The decision comes after a pair of Savannah police officers were indicted in May on multiple charges of perjury and violating their oaths of office.

Jones says the cases were no longer winnable in court after police misconduct tainted them.
