These two men for no other reason than they though this black kid out jogging may have looked like someone else. Decide to stop this kid and pull a shotgun on him. To make a citizens arrest. Then when he refused and fought back Because he was afraid and then tried to get away from these thugs. They shot him twice in the back with a shotgun.Excerpt of conversation with 911
Greg McMichael: “And he’s been caught on the camera a bunch before at night. It’s an ongoing thing out here.”
McMichael later told police he suspected that Arbery was burglarizing houses under construction in the Brunswick neighborhood. Based on what a so called surveillance video of a black man.
I guarantee you if there had not been a video. These two criminals, murders would have gone free.
Just think about this for a moment. If two unknown men had did that to anyone here. What would you've done.
I hope these two are put on death role for murder. I'd dare say that based upon this article. This was a hate crime also. I do not use that word ever. But they stopped and murdered this kid just because he was black.Excerpt
Police were told the elder McMichael armed himself with his .357 handgun and the two followed Arbery for two blocks before, according to the report, McMichael shouted: “Stop, stop we want to talk to you.”
They told investigators they pulled up next to Arbery and the former investigator’s son “exited the truck with a shotgun.” now this may be stupid on my part. But if someone pulled up next to me. Whom I did not know and jumped out with a shotgun. What did they think was going to happen. Maybe something like stated in below statement
Greg McMichael told police Arbery then “violently attacked his son, and the two men started fighting over the shotgun." Travis McMichael fired two shots, killing Arbery, they told police.
Police said the McMichaels rolled Arbery over to see if he had a weapon, but no weapon was found.
This is beyond just sad. The video contraindicated some important facts they left out. What's even worse. They were not arrested until there were witnesses and a video of this murder.

A former prosecutor who had examined Arbery’s case told police the McMichaels acted within the scope of Georgia’s citizen arrest statute and that Travis McMichael fired his weapon in self-defense. no they did not. Citizens arrest while in the act of a crime. When did jogging and fighting for your life become a crime. Againt two armed men who jumped out of a truck one with a shotgun. This is outright stupid
Here's Ga CITIZEN arrest law
Georgia's citizen's arrest law requires that the offender must have committed a crime in the presence of another person, or that person must have "immediate knowledge" of a crime that has taken place by the perpetrator. ... "It's insanity to even attempt to try and call that citizen's arrest
Maybe looking like another person is NOT immediate knowledge. immediate knowledge is the samething as direct knowledge. Which these two murder did not have because they did not know the man they murdered. This so called former prosecutor is probably former for a reason
Phillips said he’s concerned, that state attorneys didn’t intend on prosecuting until the video surfaced.
Because of the shooter’s family connection with Glynn County law enforcement officials, the homicide case was first transferred to Ware County and then transferred to the Hinesville District for the same reason.
Gee I wonder if this right here was why they were not charged and all these in the L.E. community from L.E. district attorney ect did not press charges in the first place. Until that darn video surfaced. It's damn sure it's why these murders were not charged.
