Arbery family attorney slams defense's toenails comment | AP News

, their lawyers and lawyers for the prosecution spoke in front of the courthouse after the jury’s verdict.

Crump represents Marcus Arbery Sr., who was in the courtroom along with Ahmaud’s mother, Wanda Cooper-Jones, when the verdict was read and cheered in reaction to the decision. Speaking about his client’s outburst after the first guilty verdict came down, Crump said Marcus Arbery could not contain his feelings and noted the “dirty toenails” comment that came earlier this week.

The comments that sparked outrage came Monday when Laura Hogue, a lawyer for defendant Greg McMichael, said during her closing argument that the prosecution was portraying Arbery as the victim. “Turning Ahmaud Arbery into a victim after the choices that he made does not reflect the reality of what brought Ahmaud Arbery to Satilla Shores in his khaki shorts with no socks to cover his long, dirty toenails,” she told the jury.

LauraHogue intentionally used Deep South imagery to compare AA to a runaway/bad slave. It backfired, because the very picture she painted made her client the slaver. Slam dunk appeal and she should be disbarred. She knew the older jurors would get the reference.

And here AP is repeating it at least twice just to get clicks 🙄 Shameful.

Wow ... these KKK defence lawyers will do anything to proudly support racism ... Someone needs to tell them to stop picking and eating the snot from their white noses or scratching their white fuzzy balls in pubic ... sorry I meant public. No offence mean to de fence ... much

It's from the autopsy report (page 2).

Make them four. Throw her in jail too.

This had nothing to do with defending her client but was a dog whistle to all those who feel the same as the McMichaels. It’s absolutely disgusting.
