This Thursday, May 7, 2020, file photo combo of images provided by the Glynn County Detention Center in Georgia shows Gregory McMichael, left, and his son Travis McMichael. Georgia's attorney general on Sunday asked the U.S. Department of Justice to investigate the handling of the killing of Ahmaud Arbery, a black man who authorities say died at the hands of the two men as he ran through a neighborhood.
Arbery was killed Feb. 23 after a white father and son armed themselves and gave chase when they spotted the 25-year-old black man running in their neighborhood just outside the port city of Brunswick.It wasn’t until May 7 that those men — Greg McMichael, 64, and Travis McMichael, 34 — were charged with felony murder and aggravated assault. The McMichaels’ arrests came two days after cellphone video of the shooting leaked online and stirred a national outcry.
Protests following the deaths of George Floyd in Minneapolis, Breonna Taylor in Louisville, Kentucky, and Arbery have led to outbreaks of violence in many larger cities, including Atlanta. Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp promised a “strong state law enforcement presence” in the Brunswick area Thursday to coincide with the court hearing.
Excellent news. Lock up these racist murderers and throw away the keys. HaroldLang16

Sufficient evidence? You mean besides the shotgun blast and the racial slur?
Racists are going to jail. Let’s hope they go in the ‘non white supremacist’ cell block. Put them in the other for some diversity.
Sufficient evidence? He was alive, their paths crossed & now he’s dead while they’re still alive. What more evidence do you need?
DillardVicki When 'roll the footage' means nothing😠
Let’s not forget this case. I hope Justice is served.
Who's their antifa handler? This was antifa right?
IndivisibleIL I'd say that video that one of them recorded is evidence enough, JFC
Why doesn't AP show the third person? Narrative
They have a decent chance of having the charges dismissed. DuRr buT thEre iS ViDeo! Yes, a short video lacking context and showing a tussle over a gun. Itll be interesting to see.
Throw the damn book at them
“Sufficient Evidence” uh, have they seen the video? I think Hellen Keller would have deemed that sufficient. 🤔
At this rate, if these monsters walk free, America will have a war on there hands
Everyone will be watching.
Sounds like this is gonna lead directly to more protests
If these two evil goons get let off I think America & maybe even the world are going to spontaneously burst into flames 😱 🔥
Sufficient evidence? We all saw the video! People are often convicted with less evidence than that!
We already forgot about this story
Are hearings to determine sufficient evidence standard practice? Isn’t that already determined at the time the charges are filed?
🤔 the world know about it.... What more evidences u need... 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
Porcine faces. Odd.
Embroideries If these guys get away with anything, they did, its not going to be pretty.
2 reasons why u don’t hook up w ur sister
'angry protests' Shame on you 'Three men who were charged with murder months after the fatal shooting of Ahmaud Arbery faced a hearing before a Georgia judge Thursday following a week of angry protests in the U.S. over law enforcement biases against black victims.'
So a video does not matter?
Sufficient evidence? Like somebody deleted the video of the murder?
They have more than enough.
Can't wait for the South Park episode about this
if they walk, street justice.
i’m SCREAMING “sufficient evidence” THERES A VIDEO
Probable cause? They kill him, it was recorded and they need a reason to charge them? No justice
Ugly, ugly souls!!
I would say a video they took themselves of them literally ambushing an innocent black jogger and then shooting him multiple times until he was dead, should probably do it.
Show photos of Ahmaud. We don't want to see these racist dudes.
There will be nothing left of that town if the judge pretends like there isn't enough video evidence.
I will be disappointed but not surprised when all charges are dropped.
The LOOK of these two red neck imbeciles! It’s utterly shameful! Talk about playing into the stereotype 🙄
The court has to waste time to determine that? About two minutes of video footage should answer that question.
I hope they rot
One of them is a known white supremacist. They stalked and lynched that man. It was both murder and a hate crime. They deserve life in prison without parole.
We ALL have sufficient evidence. It's on VIDEO!!
When are the hearings for the people that killed this man?..
This is good. What about their buddies in the Brunswick police department who tried to bury this?
Defense attorneys requested the hearing to make prosecutors show whether they have probable cause to charge them with murder. Judge decides if the defendants are charged correctly. Georgia law.
Oh boy, here we go again..
Scuze you?!?!
These three racist idiots better hope for a trial or beg to stay in jail! B/C if they’re released they won’t be safe! And you can guarantee riots & fire you see today are minuscule in comparison to what will happen if they say insufficient evidence! Can you say public execution!
Looking like TWO GENETIC MUTANT DEFECTS!
Before I read the article and judging from the mugshots/headland this was racially motivated. Sad but probably true
🍊 is the REAL ENEMY of the ppl! 🍊 is to BLAME for ALL of this DESTRUCTION/the CRISES in this country (looting, SPREADING the pathogens of Corona and RACISM, etc)! REMEMBER Election Day Nov 2020 (IF this country exists in November)! FOCUS ALL your energy /efforts on ENEMY 🍊!
Hope they get life!
Hillbillies
Look at these two hillbillies.. I am. Making a racist comment! We a do. Biggest problem in the US is millions sitting in jail because they can't pay BAIL. That the main issue the US should be protesting about. Stop $ 4 FREEDOM. Stop money for bail. No jail for the unconvivted
Wait, what? Weather authorities have sufficient evidence?
Unbelievable ffs! 🙄
Sufficient evidence? Is the video, text messages, phone data & their own words not enough.
We saw it with our own eyes.
Don' F*CK it up!!
There’s video is them killing him, but..
“Determine whether authorities have sufficient evidence” if a cell-phone video of the incident isn’t enough evidence, then what the fuck is?
They’ll get a job with the Minneapolis police at this rate
I mean, there’s a fucking video so I’d say the evidence is pretty strong
Oh man, I totally forgot about them boys, Iran, Kobi, Brexit, Australia 🔥, ISIS, Kurds.....AND COVID-19... 2020 is moving pretty fast!!
Why not just set them free? But first tell the entire black community in Brunswick when and where you’ll be releasing them.
Wait. Seriously? The entire fucking thing was caught on video?!? Of course there’s evidence.
Least not forget!!!!!
A video isn’t sufficient evidence?
Three turds about to get flushed. Good riddance.
Isn't there a video of them literally killing him? Not enough?
complete misunderstanding. case dismissed
For the sake of that town I hope the judge makes a wise decision.
Hoping they find sufficient evidence. If they don’t this country will fucking explode.
Dismiss the case. Insufficient evidence
Can probably go ahead and skip that hearing for timing sake.
Not clapping. This is long overdue.
Those look like very fine people to me!
They know they're fucked now
They do not have any evidence at all and the cases should all be dismissed.
Bury these cockroaches.
Stop putting up their pictures. We know who they are. Just report the news. We don't need reminder of their evil faces.
