Rayshard Brooks was killed a day before he planned to celebrate his daughter's birthday
Rayshard Brooks' 8-year-old daughter had her birthday dress on Saturday morning waiting for her dad to come pick her up and take her skating to celebrate her birthday, family attorneys say.
Her dad never came home. He was shot and killed by an Atlanta police officer at a Wendy's parking lot in Atlanta Friday night. Since then, the officer who shot Brooks was terminated and a second officer was placed on administrative duty. The Atlanta police chief stepped down from her position.
Brooks, 27, has three daughters who are 1, 2 and 8 years old, according to the attorneys. He also has a 13-year-old stepson, they said.
His oldest daughter was having her birthday party Saturday, Brooks' family attorney Justin Miller said in a news conference Saturday.
Rayshard Brooks was a father to three daughters and a step-son
"They had a birthday party for her ... with cupcakes," Miller said. "While we were sitting there talking to her mom about why her dad's not coming home."
"We still celebrated," Brooks' widow, Tomika Miller, told CNN Monday. "It's what her dad would have wanted."
A day earlier, the young girl had enjoyed other celebrations with her father. Brooks took her to get her nails done, Miller said, and then they went and ate together.
The two had also spent time at an arcade Friday, family attorney L. Chris Stewart said.
"We sat with (Brooks' children) today and watched them play and laugh and be oblivious to the facts that their dad was murdered on camera," Stewart said in the news conference.
"A scene that we keep repeating as we watched Gianna Floyd play in Houston, oblivious to that her dad was knelt on and murdered. How many more examples will there be?"
