The police report is linked to the Facebook post. The white guys lied to the responding officer about how it went down. The video proves they lied. The white guys are going to prison.

I’m still on the fence about the second guy and waiting on other facts to come out.

Is everybody in South Florida white too? He’s not defending me you moron.

White? I'm white - u have no clue the struggle I endure everyday as a minority down here

The population of Miami-Dade County, FL is 69.1% Hispanic or Latino, 15.5% Black or African American Alone, and 12.9% White Alone.

Looks like the black kid jogging and the white guys are waiting for him in the road. Looks like the younger white guy has his shotgun and is waiting out in the middle of the road for the jogger to pass in order to confront him. When the jogger sees this, it looks like he tries to go around the pick-up on the curb side in the grass, but the shotgun guy goes in front of his truck to confront the jogger and that's when the first shot is heard.

Not a lot of elapsed time or factual grounds for shotgun guy to make any kind of self defense argument.

This is a life sentence for shotgun guy, and the old guy in the back will get charged with murder, but plea to a few years.

It does look like they were waiting for him - almost ready to ambush him - Georgia has an obscure law regarding citizen's arrest - I don't know if all the facts apply nor do I know the law but in a nut shell they may have been within their rights to try to arrest him if he had committed some type of a crime - I heard they thought he just broke into a house - I havent heard that he was the guy that broke into anyone's house so I doubt that it could really apply - I'm sure they're gonna argue they thought he had just broken into someones house and when they tried to apprehend him things went south - I highly doubt they went out and set a trap waiting for blacks so they could murder them - I do believe they thought he was the guy that had broken into the house

Under Georgia law, “a private person may arrest an offender if the offense is committed in his presence or within his immediate knowledge. If the offense is a felony and the offender is escaping or attempting to escape, a private person may arrest him upon reasonable and probable grounds of suspicion.”

Be tough to bring that defense into play when they did not actually see him commit a felony crime (let alone I never heard he committed a crime) and he was blatantly jogging on the road - he wasn't sprinting through back yards

It’s a good breakdown Mac. Thanks for the share.

The only thing I disagree with is his assessment this case being exactly like the Zim/Martin case. Zim didn’t approach Martin with a gun out and Martin didn’t know he had a gun. That’s all though.

The Trayvon/Zimmerman case was manipulated by various entities. The people who know the most about these cases are the prosecutors and the defense attorneys. If you ever heard Zimmerman’s defense attorney speak after the verdict, you would agree that the Zimmerman was not guilty.

Perfect example why people need to mind their own business unless they actually witness something going down.

And then this


LeBron James speaks out on Ahmaud Arbery shooting death: 'We're literally hunted everyday

“We’re”? Lebron is hunted ?

[FONT=&quot]Where was he when the security guard at the Dollar General was killed because he was asking someone to wear a mask to conform with rules?

Where is he on the killings in Chicago that continue?

This case could get interesting - first, if the shooter is not indicted they ain't gonna be socially distancing down in Georgia to say the least

about the case - there is a chance that Arbery is on video peaking through windows - there is a chance he had come onto this property previously and stole fishing tackle from the back of the property - there is a chance these two really truly thought Arbery just broke into a house - one of the two just resigned from an investigation committee for the prosecutor's office - so he would have some type of quasi police authority - the two also lied and said they were chasing Arbery - the police bring up that Arbery has mental issues - who knows - this case could get ugly - the two are deeply tied into the police/da's office - two prosecutor's have recused themselves from the case

Barnhill is the second prosecutor to recuse himself from the case - he wrote this before stepping away from the case - maybe Arbery shot himself while attempting to steal the gun?

Though Barnhill saw no conflict, he wrote, he agreed to step down. In doing so, he wrote an April 2 letter saying the McMichaels and William Bryan, a third man involved who is listed as a witness in the police report, engaged in "hot pursuit" and had "solid first-hand probable cause," as civilians, to detain Arbery.


"It appears their intent was to stop and hold this criminal suspect until law enforcement arrived. Under Georgia law, this is perfectly legal," Barnhill wrote, citing state code that says civilians can arrest someone if they have immediate knowledge of an offense or if a perpetrator is trying to flee after committing a felony.

Barnhill also questioned whether Arbery might've been responsible for the gunshots by pulling on the shotgun, and he concluded Travis McMichael "was allowed to use deadly force to protect himself," he wrote in the letter to Glynn County police Capt. Tom Jump.


"Arbery's mental health records and prior convictions help explain his apparent aggressive nature and his possible thought pattern to attack an armed man," Barnhill wrote, without elaborating.

Had these two guys not approached the kid in an aggressive manner, he’d still be alive.

I'm really hoping there are no videos of this guy coming out of someone's window - I all I heard was he shoplifted something and he had a gun where he wasn't supposed to

You've got to re-read what the prosecutor wrote:

"Arbery's mental health records and prior convictions help explain his apparent aggressive nature and his possible thought pattern to attack an armed man," Barnhill wrote, without elaborating.

That depends Louie. I want to know what was said between all the aggressors in the lead up to the chase. That would help me determine intent. I can’t say right now without more info.
