ATLANTA -- The killing was captured on video and shared around the world: Ahmaud Arbery running toward and then around an idling pickup truck before its driver blasted him at close range with a shotgun.
After a 13-day trial at the Glynn County courthouse in coastal Georgia, a disproportionately white jury found the three white menMurder convictions carry a minimum penalty of life in prison. The judge decides whether that comes with or without the possibility of parole. Even if the possibility of parole is granted, a person convicted of murder must serve 30 years before becoming eligible. Multiple murder convictions are merged for the purposes of sentencing.
One likely basis for appeal could be the exclusion of certain evidence from the trial, he said. Defence attorneys had sought to introduce evidence of Arbery's criminal record, records on his mental health and the fact that he was on probation. They also wanted to have a use-of-force expert testify. But the judge ruled against admitting any of that evidence.
It's also possible that appellate attorneys could find other grounds for appeal after scouring transcripts and jury instructions, and speaking with jurors.Yes. The McMichaels and Bryan still face federal charges.
change the self-defense laws everywhere...
They go to jail.
Ah jail
What allways happens after convictions
'for breeders of hate' and thier families, 'examples of penalty must be applied',
Hmm 😟😟
Probably back to complaining about the Rittenhouse verdict
Now the left claims victory because it was the outcome they desired, when in fact this verdict is just as valid as last weeks.
