The State of Georgia is recognizing February 23rd as Ahmaud Arbery Day. It is the day Ahmaud Arbery was chased down, shot and murdered in the Satilla Shores neighborhood in Glynn County.
Former Brunswick District Attorney Jackie Johnson was set to go before a judge on Dec. 29 to be arraigned on charges connected to the Ahmaud Arbery case.
A former Georgia prosecutor charged with hindering the police investigation into the 2020 killing of Ahmaud Arbery is scheduled to make her first court appearance in the case next month.
Federal prosecutors showed racially-charged text messages and social media posts to jurors from three men charged with hate crimes against Ahmaud Arbery.
Three men have already been convicted of murdering Ahmaud Arbery in a state-level case, but now the same three defendants head to federal court charged with hate crimes.
Arbery’s mother, Wanda Cooper-Jones asked the judged to reject the deal and described the U.S. Justice Department’s decision to propose it as “disrespectful.”
We now know what it cost taxpayers in Glynn County to handle security for the murder trial of Gregory and Travis McMichael, as well as William “Roddie” Bryan.
Travis McMichael, the man who shot and killed Ahmaud Arbery, has requested a new trial after being sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.
On the day of the sentencing in the murder trial of Ahmad Arbery, State Representative Carl Gilliard reflects on the case, and Georgia’s old law that allowed citizens arrests - a law that was repealed as a result of Arbery’s murder.
Attorneys in the upcoming federal hate crimes trial of the white men who chased and killed Ahmaud Arbery want the jury pool to come from an expansive area of Georgia.
Members of the jury have reached a verdict in the trial of the three men accused of killing 25-year-old Ahmaud Arbery in the Satilla Shores neighborhood on February 23, 2020.
Just a day after the state rested their case, attorneys for Greg and Travis McMichael asked for a directed verdict on counts one through five, while William Bryan’s attorney asked for a directed verdict on all of his counts.
Tension in the courtroom Monday morning as Civil Rights activist Reverend Jesse Jackson sat with Ahmaud Arbery’s family for the first time during the trial.
