Charlotte Gaddis of Seattle holds a banner that reads "4 seconds to death" as she protests against Seattle Police Officer Ian Birk on Wednesday at City Hall in downtown Seattle. Birk, who fatally shot John T. Williams on a downtown street last year, resigned late Wednesday, after the King County prosecutor said earlier in the day that no charges would be filed against him.
