William Bryan told investigators he overheard Travis McMichael use the n-word after he fatally shot Ahmaud Arbery. A special agent on the case was asked if there's evidence McMichael used the n-word at any other time. 'Yes, sir, many times,' he said.

McMichael, along with his father Gregory McMichael, and Bryan all face murder charges in the death of Arbery who was killed Feb. 23.In vivid detail, he testified that Arbery, who was jogging through the Brunswick, Ga., neighborhood, was pursued and then repeatedly boxed in by the truck that the McMichaels were in and the vehicle driven by Bryan.

At one point attorneys for Travis McMichael asked Dial if he thought their client was trying to protect himself from Arbery, the agent responded,"I don't believe it was self-defense by Mr. McMichael, I believe it was self-defense by Mr. Arbery." It also would appear the investigator's testimony counters claims Bryan made through his lawyer that he was not involved in the crime, he was simply a witness who recorded the incident on his cell phone.

When Bryan didn't get a response, he went into his residence, briefly, then came back and"cranks up his truck with the intention of assisting in the pursuit," Dial said.

The father was in law enforcement which begs the question how many law enforcement officers do we have that belong to white nationalist groups? There would be no better place to hide in plain sight they have authority and guns think about it.

Trumps army...😁😁😁😁 they look so...... typical

Not surprised

I am not surprised. I am deeply deeply bothered that there are so many more out there like shithead Travis Michael. Ahmad is so brave to have fought back at all.

So add hate crime to the list of felonies.

Hard 'R' or a?

Here’s two that need to be lynched

Now report if one of the 48 black on black shooters in Chicago ever used the “n-word”. NPR I’m not going to fear white people no matter how hard you try or how many black people you PAY to say I should.

This trash should be in prison.

The defective on the right appears to be a mouth breather.

Oh the guy who murdered a black man for running in his neighbor said a racial slur.

FeddiUp Hope these mouth breathers get the death penalty

Does it really matter? He ran down a poor kid on the road, not armed and not on his property. No threat to him. Murder1. Very simple.

Who FN cares! Every black American already knew this! Out loud or in his heart, text or tweet. White people kill me! Like y’all need to hear the word to know if this was a racist act because you’re not ready to deal with your own racism so y’all create arbitrary thresholds

hallow monsters evil ...

So now we need to word Police ever ignorant human on the planet? It’s an ugly racist word said in ignorance. There are many words that are ugly, we need to rise above pitiful name calling to describe other people. racism and ignorance will always exist in some form. RealityCheck

This case should be a Hate crime punishable by shooting in the City town square by the Federal government.

Shocker

Is this what Trump means when he says his MAGA people love the blacks?

Whether they use the n-word or not, they hunted and killed this young man on “suspicion” of a crime, they didn’t witness a crime. They are, at a minimum, vigilantes and murderers.

Sickening

Death penalty to all white nationalists/supremacist. Designate hate group. There is no room for you. Bu by 👋

Sure he did.

coupla punchable mugs right there

What is rotting inside of their souls

This just coming out now?

Cowards!

When your shocked face is the only one you got left.

Such sick, horrible people! Thanks, Trump, for bringing out the worst of the worst!

Hang these two. Give the people justice. Once they have their day in court and are found guilty. Hang them as an example to others that the United States no longer will accept nor tolerate racism....

Remember when Mark Furman lied about it...

I mean, no shit.

Equal part disgusting and heartbreaking

My 8 year old could’ve reported this... not exactly news, was there any doubt that they would use racial slurs?

Surprise surprise..

Wow. Did these guys really have to look EXACTLY like you’d expect?

Guess who’s getting Murder 1 and who’s getting Manslaughter.

They look like a pair of inbreds. It’s a shame that filth like this is still so common in our society.

It’s probably true.

Keep to what is positive to society. I can't respect the society or system, who keep producing 100's of ways to protect all these murderers, delay their trials and let them live to kill another human. Why ? Why are they considered for any right after taking any innocent's life?
