Georgia 'LYNCHING' citizen fatally shoots unarmed black man ... Video Emerges, Grand Jury to Convene

The fatal shooting of Ahmaud Arbery -- a 25-year-old black man out for a jog when he was chased and killed -- was caught on video, prompting a call for a grand jury to review the case.

Arbery's death is being referred to as a modern-day lynching, as he was unarmed when he was gunned down in Brunswick, GA on February 23 by a white citizen named Travis McMichael ... who has not been arrested or charged. He also happens to be the son of a former district attorney investigator.

As you can see in the video, Arbery was jogging when he was stopped by McMichael and his father in a white pickup truck. McMichael was armed with a shotgun. Arbery appears to attempt to run around the truck before he and McMichael start grappling.

After at least 2 shots, the men continued struggling over the gun ... until Arbery stumbles away, shot in the mid-section, and then collapses to the ground. He was later pronounced dead.

McMichael has not been charged in the shooting ... reportedly because he and his father, who was in the back of the truck, claim they were trying to make a citizen's arrest. They claim Ahmaud fit the description of a suspect in a string of recent break-ins in the area.

After the emergence of the video, D.A. Pro Tempore Tom Durden has decided the case "should be presented to the grand jury of Glynn County for consideration of criminal charges against those involved in the death of Mr. Arbery.”

Ahmaud's family says the use of deadly force was unnecessary.

Video Shows Fatal Shooting of Ahmaud Arbery, Unarmed Black Man in Georgia

The fatal shooting of Ahmaud Arbery, a 25-year-old unarmed black man, was caught on video and has prompted a grand jury investigation.

Here's the statement from the district attorney who was brought in to oversee the case and decide how and whether the case should be prosecuted.

Attorney Lee Merritt, who represents Arberys mother, claims "The series of events captured in this video confirm what all the evidence indicated prior to its release— Ahmaud Arbery was pursued by three white men that targeted him solely because of his race and murdered him..."

Imagine being hunted by two fat hillbillies in a truck.

I heard that the defense closing arguments were good, but the prosecution got a rebuttal. If anyone else saw it, how did it go?

Since when does the prosecution get a rebuttal of the defense’s close? If true, that’s in complete opposition to my understanding of criminal trial process.

they always get a rebuttal and always have. its because the state has the burden of proof.

 

[Puff]

I still dislike they get an open and a close. The state starting and finishing feels wrong. It caught me off guard the first time I saw it.

 

[pwnest injun]

Yeah, they were stupid by trying to do a citizens arrest and by bringing a gun into the matter too, especially since it was just essentially petty theft in which they were a disinterested party.

Armed Robbery was obviously a scumbag, but they were insanely stupid at the same time.

When does a citizens arrest begin, because the first person to lay hands on anyone was Arbery punching McMichaels in the face.

He had stolen guns and was a known felon, if they hadn't brought a gun they risked getting ventilated.

 

[SITHRAK!]

I had a quick browse of Cornell Law School's Legal Information Institute and NOLO.com, and there's no mention there of a universal right of prosecutorial rebuttal applying in criminal cases. I suspect that process in this regard may vary from state by state.

 

[Iron Jaguar]

Armed Robbery was a thieving piece of shit, who got exactly what he deserved. He fought precisely because he was guilty and knew he was going to the Big House if he couldn't get away.
Those men did nothing wrong. It is a travesty of justice that they are being charged, just to keep some race hucksters happy.
His fambly know he was a piece of shit too but they'll be crying big, fat, crocodile tears about dey preyshus baybee, all in the hope of a huge settlement.

 

[Slimy Time]

Which surprises me because the Rittenhouse case didn't involve any black people.

I think the optics of a kid being put up for murder of several people/shooting 3 people, and it being related to the endless BLM riots that were so prevalent in 2020 made it more enticing than what was a jogger and some hillbilly hicks fucking around. As to Rittenhouse not involving any blacks, the media did a good job of portraying the case as if it did. It is also a very clear case of self defence, as opposed to a citizen's arrest gone hot, so politically this case was more interesting to see where self defence goes in 2021.

Optics wise, not in favour of the McMichaels because it was a citizens arrest of a black person that went hot, and the people doing the arresting look like a bunch of hicks in pickup trucks, as opposed to baby faced Kyle being attacked by a mob. Again, not sure what has come out in trial, but optics wise I think that's going to make it much harder for the McMichaels to get off to a jury.

 

[Wy4M]

Ahmaud Arbery was a violent career criminal. If the McMichaels didn't stop him he would either still be stealing, be dead or in jail.

Reminder that at first Arbery wasn't called a jogger by MSM. This was only added by Arbery's side/MSM when people questioned what he was doing
so far away from home in that area.
The same happened when a few weeks later footage appeared of Arbery wandering around in that house that was under construction; suddenly
he was an aspiring electrician.

The evidence suggests the victim is likely a thief; but the evidence also suggests that he was indeed murdered and not killed as self-defense or with justification.

We will see either guilty verdict or a hung jury.

True story: It reminds me of an almost exact situation last year in our neighborhood where there had been break-ins. A group of men got up in arms about it and started patrolling the area with weapons. Ironically, a man, another man and his son. They had AR's and shit.

I too circled the neighborhood and saw the kid with the AR and told him to get into my car. When he got in I said WTF you doing with that? You aren't actually going to shoot this thief? It went on an on. hue wanted to convince the guy to get into his dads truck and "go for a ride" The upshot was my situation could have been just like these 3 guys where one decided to be Judge Dredd and just execute the guy. So I am familiar with the dynamics. The adrenaline, etc. etc. coupled with the feeling of the right to protect property.

Our story ended differently; but it could have ended just like with what happened with Aubrey. Almost to the letter. Kind of spooky to be honest.

What actually happened is I tracked the thief down and got him arrested and he went to jail. He was pure scum. But deserved to die? Nah, there are bigger crooks on Wall Street that should have it coming before he does.

So there are going to be some guilty charges in this case - or a hung jury. The defendants went too far.

Having personal property stolen is a real invasion of your home and castle no doubt - and I too feel the need to defend it at all costs; but that doesn't mean I feel the need to execute people for it. There is a limit to justified behavior and if we accept that these guys were justified in the killing, what we are really saying is that we do not need the police or judges or jails, which isn't true. Most crimes soar above petty theft and if you can be killed for being a suspect for theft, then I guess the guy who cut me off in traffic and "put my life at risk" has got it coming too.

And then everyone clapped.

The evidence suggests the victim is likely a thief; but the evidence also suggests that he was indeed murdered and not killed as self-defense or with justification.

He ran around an obstacle (the truck) in order to physically assault a man who was armed with a shotgun.
If someone has a firearm and another person attacks them physically, it must be assumed that the attacker's intent is to disarm and potentially turn the weapon against them. These two facts alone makes it clear self-defense.

If Mr. Arbery was concerned for his safety, choosing to run at and assault a clearly armed man certainly showed him to be a person of incredibly poor judgement.
He didn't get shot because he was out jogging, or because he was a thief, or because the McMichaels were racist. He was shot because he attacked an armed man.
Just like Rosenbaum, just like Huber, just like Grosskreutz.

I too circled the neighborhood and saw the kid with the AR and told him to get into my car.

Did you offer him candy, Rosenbaum 2.0?

Lol, none of this happened and your thoughts about the 'evidence' in this (or any other) case are probably just as dumb as your story.

Just more fuel on the "@Menotaur isn't very smart" fire.

Bro he didn't shoot him for stealing from the house, he shot him because he grabbed onto the barrel of the damn gun, trying to wrestle it away.

Thats a load of horseshit.

3 men do not need to take a rifle out of the car to intimidate anyone. He went out of his car hoping to get into an altercation and shoot the fucker - which is what he did.

You can double talk all the fuck you want.

God, I hope guilty. This is the case they wanted Rittenhouse to be. Guys looking for action, got it, killed a guy in self defense.

it's just a skip, hop and a jump away from your neighborhood watch fucking with your kids over some trivial bullshit they stuck their nose in.
