This judge is Amazing. But sadly, most judges aren't that compassionate. Just like most people aren't that compassionate. Which is why giving random people too much power will always be problematic. Like police policing themselves for example. that will always end badly.
The judge spoke the facts gbless the truth. The three men convicted thereself. I wouldnt want to ever visit or live there. They say N.Y is bad this was like a three world country.
Actually this judge WAS for black & white ppl. Those of us who believe in the fellowship of all people as humans who ARE BLACK...ARE WHITE...ARE ASIAN...ARE HISPANIC...ARE NATIVE TO THE AMERICAS. HE SPOKE TO/FOR US ALL. All who believe in right things and justice FOR ALL! And he sure did demonstrate this in his summation. God has blessed him with a true discerning mind filled with compassion AND TRUTH! May the fair mentally balanced people of the land rejoice. And may those who disagree with this verdict and believe in injustice listen to what he stated and maybe a light of CORRECTION in their mind (the mind of "in ERROR" thinking) change for the better.
The fact that neither father or son stood up while the judge spoke, during sentencing. This shows just what rude, disgusting bullies they are, who don't regret their actions.
regardless of whether they are getting life, it's called showing character because you value it and believe you are worthy of it. And they obviously do not.
This is EXACTLY why it is best to mind your own business. Leave people alone and stop approaching them. If someone isn’t bothering you leave them alone.
While I agree that this is sound advice on how to live life, there have been many occasions where bystanders have saved someones life or assisted in an altercation that saved someones life. Here recently a little girl was saved from her kidnapper after a random person noticed her odd behavior. There was a scuffle and chaos in the attempt to stop the guy from fleeing with her. Ultimately the kidnapper was arrested and the little girl returned to her family. She had been missing for about a year. Its definitely a roll of the dice when it comes to these things, and the person making the decision better right. Because these are the consequences for getting it wrong. They are spending life in prison. Look at the people trying to stop Kyle Rittenhouse, they also got it wrong and paid with their life.
@@JosiasRiverait’s always an irrelevant rebuttal from you ppl she talking about bothering someone that is doing absolutely nothing wrong and moving off assumptions not blatantly turning your back to an obvious person doing something illegal
@@JosiasRivera They didn't see him doing anything. He was Black. Those occasions aren't the same as this situation. Mind your own business, don't approach someone who hasn't done anything wrong. That's just like me seeing your dad going for a run and accusing him of R*pe.
@Konservative Kirby XIthere's always one like you in the comments. Enjoy your troll. Hopefully your ignorance doesn't result in the death of an innocent.. Rather copper be stolen from an unprotected construction site than a young man losing his life.(which never happened just assuming that's what you were inferring) Check your priorities bud. God would not approve Edit: you made your RUclips profile konservitive Kirby..... Get a life and don't make your personality based on biased beliefs. Best of luck to you..
@Konservative Kirby XI I know you were being sarcastic but I genuinely mean best of luck. Every life has intrinsic value. Which was my point. No property has value over human life. (In my opinion) property can be replaced the other can not. Not my job to regulate your values. It is my right to disagree with them. When I say best of luck to you, I do mean it. Edit: I completely disagree with your viewpoint of this case, but I believe that open discussion about cases such as this can bring us closer to a common understanding. I encourage you to discuss this with a mutual respect and understanding
@Konservative Kirby XI he's just butt hurt his racist cousins got justice. Life yippee. He also butt hurt that the deceased wasn't found doing anything wrong, so he's making things up. Racism is a mental illness just so u know.... Lol
Unlike the teens case this judge ran his court room no outburst not taking side he listened to tho whole trial long story short did his job he had no thoughts til after jury made their vote his thoughts after ar something we all need to think about our country has been mixed will always be mixed & we can't get better til we get better together
The father was old with hatred. He taught his son to be hateful. To prejudge and have no regard for someone who didn't look like him. I'm glad they got life without parole.
Now if they want to take their hate and racism into to the penitentiary they won't be carrying guns they'll have to fight with their hands. Let's see how that works for them

@@shirleywhite3716 I would really love him as a stepfather and step grandfather. You can see by his demeanor that he doesn't have a racist bone in his body. He flinched and looked really discusted when he heard by a couple of witnesses on the stand, that travis, sewer slime mcmichael stood over ahmaud,s dying body and said, ' fing ngger'. Would they have taken the same actions if they had been chasing a young white man, I very much doubt it. They were extremely, racist vigilantes, who, including people in law enforcement believe in their deluded minds of being above it.
I want to thank this Judge so much for his words! He truly was correct on everything he said. He handled this fairly and I know the family appreciated that💜
Now they need to hold accountable the one who let it go with a a slap on the wrist people who think that they got away with it brag to people how they got him I think the judge will listen to every detail I love his mother and father who didn't let it rest I Love Her speech he made she told that attorney had my son knew he was going to be murdered he would have clipped his toenails very classy woman I love the way the family stuck together and that very end oh I would say to them is don't drop the soap but that's so much a coward I wonder how the father felt knowing that he just got his son in a world of mess I know deep down had said to himself why did I listen to him many times he have said this to his self but that's what you get when you teach your kids to hate I know when you be sitting in a cell and the spirit of Aubrey it's looking at you and you will cry out you will cry out
Y'all are dumb af if you think for a second that judge would be the same "compassionate", moment of silence giving, defining closures and justice preaching man if those cameras weren't there reaching out to everyone in the nation and not high profile!! Had the police been called and arrested him for "jogging" instead of them killing him, he'd be the same "respectful" and "compassionate" judge that would've looked at the "joggers" sheet and old body cam videos of him plotting where to "jog" next and sentence him to at least 5 yrs so S T F U with all that praising his fraud a$$
Did you say the same thing when Arbery was repeatedly given light ir suspended sentences for his many criminal activities? Arbery was a thug, but you want to make him a saint.
Supreme Court judges are political appointments - therfore SUPPOSED to be biased towards their party and big businesses. Keep this man in the courtroom, where he can do good 👍
@@marmite. plenty of people don't though. If they had all stood, would we have heard " at least they stood up during sentencing" They murdered a man. Getting upset because they didn't stand seems a little silly to me
Judge Walmsley is a PATRIOT! When he saw the McMichael's smiling while the court watched the video of Ahmaud being murdered by them, he gave them life without parole.
I LOVE THIS JUDGE!!! He summed this case up perfectly. I’m literally crying tears of joy. Ahmaud is rejoicing in Heaven and these backwood thugs will rot in prison. Job well done to the state of Georgia!!!
If only all judges in America were as professional as this judge and as intelligent/well spoken! Great job by the judge. He did his job and should be applauded.
Yes he did a more than great job he should get judge of the year he professional had compassion thought logically and sentence then the up most damn Ryte way life yes
This judge needs to be considered for the Supreme Court what a human being!!! A brilliant Judge!!!! after listening to his words Ahmad family probably felt a little better!!!
I think judges like this are more effective dealing with everyday events in communities. Not debating laws and politicking all day. Not saying that in a negative way. Comic book comparison. Superman deals with large issues. Batman is down there in the weeds protecting the little man.
The arrogance is beyond disrespectful. The act of not standing (lawyers & defendants) speaks volumes. Wow! This judge left no stone unturned. Justice was definitely served.
The father is not a retired police man the father is a want to be police man. Kind a like the one that kneeled on George Floyd’s neck for nine minutes. Similar type of people I would say. KKK type.
@@terry7893 If he were white do you think they would have done the same thing or shot him or acted in the same manner is the question? I want to remind you that since your ancestors set foot in North America ( Native Land of my Ancestors) you have begat violence and theft. Theft of land, of life, of human freedom and basic human rights and dignity. You have no right to say who is good and who is not. I thus warn many who think like you before you leave this earth you seek to correct the wrongs that was done. The suffering you will endure from the creator will be endless. Mark those words. I ask the creator and ancestor spirits to mark all that you do and judgment you make of people unlike you and what is in your heart be just so that you may reap what you sow. Aho
@@firstnationfall5451 The entire premise of what you're saying .... is based on WRONG information!! "Theft of land"?? What are you thinking about??? The native Indians didn't OWN America. They didn't even know 99.9% of it existed or been on the land. Yet the Indians think they "owned it". The Indians had no govt. The Indians had no land records. If someone died..... that was the end of the "ownership" that they never had in the first place because they never had any govt to enforce it, or records about it. There were no land boundaries either. Telling someone you own the land "as far as the eagle flies" isn't specific. Futhermore you can't tell the rest of the world, many of whom were coming to America, to go find your own continent and that "we own it all", because there are only 7 continents and people have to live somewhere whether you like it or not.
@@terry7893 the autopsy report informs cause of death WAS due to compression on the neck. Also… an ‘accident’ ??? He knelt on him for 9 minutes 29 seconds and continued to do so even after he’s handcuffed and lost consciousness???? Absolutely disgusting excuse. I really hope no police officer ‘accidentally’ treats you or your family member in this horrific way.
The Judge is one in a million, we need more like him, a no nonsense Judge, he sits n pays 100% attention to every word, did not allowed any disrespect, even paid a minute of respect to the fallen guy, one can tell the love he has for his family, cause his fairness is notable, thanks Judge, God bless you n your family
@chuckstable165 :: Yeah ! This is what judges are supposed to do. The fact that this judge, Walmsley, is being praised is because he is the exception, not the rule AND people are surprised by his professionalism. People wouldn't be surprised if he was the rule AND not the exception.
Lot's of incompleteness on this trial. Arbery was snooping at the Satilla property for months, at least five different occasions, including at night. Arbery was also known nearby as the Robber Jogger, amongst nearby convenience stores. Arbery also had a schizoaffective disorder which made his behavior bewildering for the McM's. Arbery had to talk to cool things down,….. the McM's tried to talk with him but Arbery remained mute,…. and then aggessed on the gun,… the idea was that Arbery would stop, and they'd wait for the police to take over. They have remorse for this death, but, they felt justified given his repeated suspicious behavior and not acknowledging the callouts of inquiry about his activities. But, the McM's should've only monitored Arbery, in waiting for the police rather than getting up in his face,… other than to inquire. Life in prison is excessive for the punishment. Arbery is guilty also. And besides that, check out Arbery's criminal record over the prior decade.
This is exactly the type of judge we need on the Supreme Court. He does everything according to law, he states nothing but facts and he is about as impartial as you're going to find. Look up John Jay and some of the other justices we've had. Truly amazing men.
The judge is telling a lie in this video. These guys didn’t set out to harm Arbery. They should have left him alone, but Arbery grabbed the shotgun from one of them and that’s why head was. This judge is acting out for the TV audience.
@@iamwhatiam187 She lied many, many times. 1) She called them "criminals". They weren't criminals. They were people who made a mistake. That's a big thing. Someone who is robbing a store is a criminal. Someone who is trying to stop a crime, is not. 2) She said they "shot Ahmaud just because he was black". That's a lie. They didn't shoot any black children. They didn't shoot any black elderly. They didn't shoot any black women. Why? Because none of them matched the description of someone who was in the house. But Ahmaud DID match the description. 3) She compared them several times, about how when working in a group, they are all guilty because if someone goes in to rob a store, they don't mean to shoot anyone but say give me the money, the clerk grabs the gun and he gets shot and killed, then everyone involved is guilty, even the getaway driver. Yes fine. IF it's a robbery or other crime. But it's NOT. It was 3 guys trying to STOP a crime.
@@terry7893 what crime were they stopping?The owner of the unfinished house confirmed Ahmed stole nothing from his house.The prosecutor stated a citizen 's arrest only applied to one who witnessed a crime and not applicable to criminals powered by paranoia,preconceived ideas,profiling and pure hate.They had no locust standi to go after him.They used excessive force .They are arrogant, cold blooded killers.And yes,the prosecutor rightly called them criminals. What don't you understand?
So rare to find a judge that is firm and fair, stoic, but also compassionate and respectful. He is a stellar representation of what the justice system should look like.
Oh he will get the ULTIMATE justice as the children of GOD are described as being black. (Songs of Solomon 1) their red counterparts are prophecized to go into spiritual captivity as a recompense. They get away with NOTHING and are set to pay for their hatred and ancestors crimes!
There has been a few times ..and I'm being completely Honest that I've wanted to go upstairs and beat in my very nasty and annoying neighbors head against a wall for what she's done to me ....but I don't do it coz she's still a human being. And someone's Daughter ..but there is an Absolutely massive difference between very much wanting to punch someone coz they are Ffucking with you ....to chasing , and Hunting down and executing your neighbors ...life is crazy and this world is full of bloody savages
This judge considered EVERYTHING in this case very thoroughly from what was said by the defendants and their demeanors to the weapon used to the footage and social media post to the innocent situation that turned fatal and to the pain that the family feels to lose a loved one in this horrible fashion. The minute of silence he took was a galvanizing moment as it was only a fraction of the time that AA was faced with terror. With the humility the judge showed, I imagine him picturing a son or grandson of his facing that same type of terror and how he would feel if it was a situation that he himself had to endure. This is a honorable judge who held no bias and called it down the line like it was suppose to be called. Much respect to him for bringing forth a righteous decision.
BIG UP AND ETERNAL RESPECT TO THE LOVELY JUDGE, 'TIMOTHY WALMSLEY '. THEY SHOULD MAKE A STATUE OF HIM, NAME A COURT BUILDING IN HIS NAME'. AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST, ' TO SHOW RESPECT AND HONOUR BY MAKING HIM A, 'SUPREME COURT JUDGE', IN THE NOT TO DISTANT FUTURE.
Judge Walmsley is Supreme Court material. He is insightful , empathetic, knows the law and was a "breath of fresh air" in the whole debacle. The Prosecutor-in-Chief did a masterful representation of what really happened. Kudos to you Madam. You both have restored our faith in what we foreigners know America can be. With apology to Tolstoy "It was the best of humanity - It was the worst of humanity".
It’s frightening that there are multiple individuals in families and neighbors that committed this crime, as opposed to one sick individual. These men did not think they would be held accountable either! All of these families and loved ones will have dramatically different lives now. This is the example of racism, vigilantism and white privilege that exists in this country. We have to stop the hatred that we hold for one another. We can’t continue on this road.
Amy The problem is you can't legislate someone's heart whomever they may be !! Travis McMichael's was doomed in the womb just like bad bowl haircut Roddie Bryan !! Sister they're old as dust and to undo their way of thinking its like asking me to peel off my black skin with tweezers !!
When people are together, they can function as a mob, and they abdicate their own feeling of moral culpability for their actions. It is a dangerous aspect of human nature, and one which can not be tolerated. Standing up to those around you and standing apart can be challenging, but it must be expected of all citizens. These men failed.
I also saw the video of the cop when Ahmad was dying and he was breathing - but no one went over to check on him. They treated him worse than a dog and made fun of his toenails - what kind of terrible person/lawyer do you have to be to do that? This is shameful to happen in America in 2021.
Defense attorneys aren't there to take the publics thoughts or opinions into account. They work for the Defense. On the flip side...I am satisfied with the outcome of this case. A person has a right to defend their property...that doesn't include hunting a man down like a dog and killing him! I will never understand hate
@@camillahunt3247 They weren't defending property, they were seeking a confrontation just like the judge said. The cop who failed to immediately render aid and get an ambulance for Ahmaud Arbery should also face charges.
@@cherylshaw8563 Defending property was their whole reason! Not a good one...but that was the reason they stated. Not much you can do when someone is practically dead and maybe the officer didn't have that level of skills needed to help...so he did ehat he was supposed to do...start processing the scene
And that what a man of faith looks like the other ones that's pretending to be one I am referring to the racist ones in this country that claim they are a Christian to the racist one stop saying that you are a Christian because you are not you are a fascist

You might as well be dead, losing your freedom is one part ,but then having to deal with other people in there 24/7 is the most horrible sounding experience.
This was a Judge who stood for the rule of law, with NO self involvement. He did an excellent job of telling the story of the actions of all three convicted criminals. They're words and the "MIGHTY" cell phone coverage told the entire story and the Judge spoke to those facts and the undercurrent of race on why it all happen. The American judicial systems need more Judges like him opposed to Judges who bend the rules for some or ignore the laws altogether.

This was 100% about Racism, the prosecutor made it about front porch vigilanteism as their claim was to conduct a citizen’s arrest and, a Racism trial would not result in a conviction in Georgia.

Wow, What a Judge . Don't retire because there aren't many judges like you. There is still a lot of work to end these injustices in the United States. God bless you
Most of Travis McMichael's attitude likely came down through his father's decades old hostility toward people unlike himself and law enforcement which usually never answers to anyone... ... Parents have to be careful about hating, b/c it can play out even in their child's life later.
Yes and ppl have to teach their kids to think for themselves and have their own thoughts and judgements. Just bc my dad says GO I'm not going if it's not a valid reason to me.
Well, I've said maybe now Travis' son has a chance to grow up Loving ALL People, now that Dad and Gpa won't be teaching him to Hate others. I don't care what anyone says. THIS WAS A RACIST ASS HATE CRIME. And now they have to live the rest of their lives with the very kind that They Hate
I have distanced myself from many close family members because of deeply dysfunctional beliefs. We have to choose to be better even if it means leaving family members behind....
No doubt about it. I know Travis hates his father now. They didn't even look at each other. Travis knows what he did was wrong but is a product of his dad. Greg McMichael has a black heart. He’s an old-school racist to his core. He still doesn't feel he did anything wrong.
Reading some of these comments reminds me of something my father told me. “Accountability feels like persecution to those who have never faced Accountability.🌹❤️🇨🇦 R.I.P My Brother.
If I lost my son in a situation like this I would be completely broken. I don't know how this family will find a way forward, but I hope they can manage to get some closure and maybe a little peace.
Justice was served . The judge was excellent in this case. I hope his parents find some peace . This was awful , they deserve the sentence they received
Justice was NOT served. They were trying to protect their neighborhood and make a tiny mistake based on the letter of the law, that you actually have to witness a crime first hand before going after someone to detain them until the police could come. That's about all they're actually guilty of, otherwise they would have been justified and would have been let go free. That doesn't make them bad people. What happened while they were trying to hold him until police could come was an accidental series of events. That doesn't make them bad people.
@@MrGenesiis You are a liar, just like the prosecuting attorney. If a bus driver hits someone who ran in front of him, is that "murder"? No. It's a mistake. Further you said they couldn't intimidate him so they killed him. There was a "small" issue of Ahmaud RUNNING AT HIM AND ATTACKING HIM, ok?
@@terry7893 Well if the bus driver was chasing that person for almost 5 minutes, I think at that point you can call it murder. The Lord thy God will judge both of us in this circumstance, let's just say I'm very confident in who the liar is.

I’m a runner , sometimes I’d run 20+ miles in training for marathons , this sickens me , this young runner was 1.8 miles from his home !!! One point eight !! Jesus man , these men hunted him down !! I’m glad justice was served .
Let's be honest, Ahmaud was not training for the Boston Marathon. I'm a former long distance runner who used to run between 100-120 miles per week, during the U.S. Running boom from the 70's -80s. He was a young man who was jogging through a white neighborhood & a frequent visitor to Larry English's House-under-construction Justice was served and we couldn't have had a better judge, prosecutor, and jury.
@@richardmilliken8705 no he was a Athlete he was keeping in shape (no he wasn’t running for a marathon) but he did run to keep in shape which it not wrong he wasn’t mentally ill he was just a black man running
@@eveelee4152 Why would a black athlete run in a Lily-white confederate flag waving neighborhood, where even the 12 year old paperboy has a semi-automatic AR-15 and is part of the neighborhood watch team. And to make matters worse, he was frequently trespassing into Larry English's Home-under-construction. That makes absolutely no sense what-so-ever. I'm an Irish- American and i wouldn't dare go running through the Mission Hill Projects or Blue Hill Avenue, unless i wanted to get shot & killed for being white. And when i grew up in the D-St. Projects in South Boston, during the 60s -70s, it would've been just as dangerous for a Black Person to run through "Southie," where Whitey Bulger & Steve "Rifleman" Flemmi used to shoot at Blacks for target practice. If Whitey Bulger caught anyone trespassing into a home-under -construction, he would've tortured you and cut your body up into small pieces and fed it to his pitt-bulls.
@@eveelee4152 He's not running there anymore, and he won't be coming down for breakfast any time soon. It's a free country & there are white racist & black racist out there. It's not just the South, if he trespassed into someone's home, in the backwoods of Maine he would've been shot dead before they asked any questions. It's just the way it is. The only difference is that the mountain men would've buried him in the woods. The nearest neighbor would be 25 miles away. So, like Whitey Bulger used to tell his 6 year old son, if no one saw it happen, it never happened. These 3 idiots that killed Ahmaud, would've gotten away with it, in the backwoods of Maine.
I just can't wrap my head around what they did. Killing someone because of their skin color has always seemed so damn stupid to me. I grew up around some virulent racists and the more I heard them spout their stupidity, the less I understood it.
I've got the upmost respect for this judge. He is truly a human being and saw this exactly for what it was. A murder, that could have been avoided if people mind their business and stop trying to police other people. Call the police, don't try to be the police.
The only time you should ever confront anybody about potentially break the law is if they’re on your property your own property stealing something or going through stuff just because they went up to a new construction site to look around does it mean they were committing a crime he was probably curious I have walked up the new house is under construction just take a quick peek at what was going on I didn’t disturb nothing I have come from the people that were on my property looking around at stuff not because they were curious because they were looking for something to steal.

As a white police officer from Wisconsin. This entire event has been disgusting. Especially the actions of the first officer on scene. He arrived, exited his vehicle observed the scene and even after he heard one of this fuckers say. "He had no choice." The "officer" did nothing. Hedidn't detain anyone. He didn't begin first aid. No, he walked up to Mr Arbury, heard the incriminating statement, and simply requested crime scene tape, and walked back to his trunk. Then he told the 2nd officer on scene. "He's about to be 10-7." In my neck of wood, we would say 10-42. Which by the book means, "End of Shift." It has since been adopted, by officers to mean death... He knew this man was dying yet did nothing...
Anyone who thinks this was a matter of "self defense" or "stand your ground," is too focused on skin color. This was clearly a matter of racial harassment and murder. Those men were not trying to make a "citizen's arrest." They were simply trying to start trouble.
In Georgia it’s now unlawful they erased citizens arrest law because it was racist from its very creation. It was designed for whites to be able to apprehend blacks under Jim Crow southern law. Essentially legalized Lynching. Look it up. However under modern interpretation it’s used as defense to witnessing a felony. However in Georgia until this was disbanded (after Aubrey) you were not allowed to hold someone at gun or weapon point. You were only allowed to restrain them with your hands. After witnessing a felony. Trying to attempt a citizens arrest with a loaded firearm is a crime. If you don’t have the right to self defense you can’t use the gun. Otherwise it’s brandishing. Class one misdemeanor. Or felony. Depending on the circumstances and or the state. So even if they were trying to make a citizens arrest their still wrong. I received my Georgia weapons permit in Brunswick less than 15 miles from where this happened when I was stationed 30 min up the road at exit 1 in kings bay. I still hold and cary with this Georgia issued permit.
@@Ricardo-eg3wn It is everyone's God-given right to defend themselves, and that's exactly what Ahmaud Arbery was doing. The McMichaels would not let him out of the neighborhood and he believed he was going to die anyway. Arbery attacked McMichael and he had every right to do so. Even if Arbery had thrown a stick or a brick at the McMichaels, that would've been the right thing to do. Furthermore, it is illegal to chase someone with a gun.
@@ulyssesgrant2782 I concur . If you stalk and brandish a weapon at someone they have the right to defend themselves. - however if the police understood citizens arrest law they should have arrested the mc Michael’s on the scene as soon as they said citizens arrest. My response to that would have simply been…. What felony did you see him commit? And why did you have a gun on you when you approached him. My immediate charges would have been brandishing, stalking, and false imprisonment, however I would have sought clarification on the murder before writing it up. That’s just me. Based off of their initial testimony. They need to charge the first officers on the scene with collaboration and or negligence. If I can point out three obvious charges from the jump. Why did it take them weeks to arrest these fools? From living there for 5 years and seeing how these bubbas operate I can tell you. Southern good ol boy system. I would also like to point out that every federal law enforcement agency has personnel stationed right up the road at FLETC…. So this sentiment resonates in law enforcement to collaborate with the good ol boys. All the way to the top. Fbi needs to externally investigate GBi. And the Brunswick police dept. as well as Camden county sheriffs. This racism and corruption doesn’t stop with one retired law enforcement officer and his son and the neighbor. It’s a lot more of those fools that think and act the way these men did. And their still in power. Take down the whole system. Not just three of them. The issue is is why did these three men sleep at home the night they committed murder and why did it take the case being blown up on social media just to get them charged? Because that entire police system is corrupt and racist.
@@Ricardo-eg3wn Ex-district attorney, Jackie Johnson is due to appear before a judge for letting these murderers off the hook. She will be sentenced to a mandatory one-year in jail. She's the one who told the Chief of Police that his officers were not to arrest the McMichaels for this murder.
@@ulyssesgrant2782 cool I’ll be watching for that one. Still think they need to go through the ranks and look a lot deeper than just one DA. Feds need to march down there again and completely dismantle that entire system.
Judge Walmsley, not only spoke on the trial, he quoted the most disturbing words of these 3 men who believed they were superior above Ahmaud Arbery. Thank you Sir🙏🏾💞
Arbery was snooping at the Satilla property for months, at least five different occasions, including at night. Arbery was also known nearby as the Robber Jogger, amongst nearby convenience stores. Arbery also had a schizoaffective disorder which made his behavior bewildering for the McM's. Arbery had to talk to cool things down,….. the McM's tried to talk with him but Arbery remained mute,…. and then aggessed on the gun,… the idea was that Arbery would stop, and they'd for the police to take over. They have remorse for this death, but, they felt justified given his repeated suspicious behavior and not acknowledging the callouts of inquiry about his activities. But, the McM's should've only monitored Arbery, in waiting for the police rather than getting up in his face,… other than to inquire. Life in prison is excessive for the punishment. Arbery is guilty also. And besides that, check out Arbery's criminal record over the prior decade.
Around 1997 while living in Hampton, Virginia, I had a similar scary situation, but luckily I got away. I was walking home from work with a coworker. A block after the coworker and I went our separate directions I walked passed a driveway that had a truck in it. I didn’t notice until the truck attempted to start multiple times as I walked by. Once the truck started they passed by slow and said something I couldn’t make out, got to the stop sign and turned right. As I got to the intersection I found the truck was quickly whipping a U-Turn. I turned left and continued walking, but heard it speed up so I started jogging, knowing that the path I was taking was on the right a couple houses down. The truck increased speed behind me. I kept calm and jogging. As the truck got closer I did a 90 degree cut right, to the path leading behind the Middle School. From that path to my apartments on the other side of and across the street from the school was a good 4 football fields away. I ran it, holding both pockets of my Taco Bell uniform, in around 30 seconds flat. World Record timing. Barely felt like my feet touched the ground. My heart is racing now just remembering and typing this. 👊🏾
If I had a judge putting my shyt on full display after murdering someone, I'd hang my head low. The fact that these defendants were able to keep their heads up and maintain eye contact tells me they are true psychopaths.

Actually, he somewhat twisted their statements. This judge is playing for a national TV audience. The case will take a few years to be overturned, but it is very likely to be overturned and a new trial granted. The judge was not going to have an acquittal in this case. Not on his resume.
@@MrJamberee Hopefully for Roddie Bryan. But the McMicheal's know now that they went too far. They were stupid by not calling the cops in the beginning. Arrogant by saying, "I'll blow your blanking head off." And if your going to be a gun owner you better know the gun laws, like self defense. You can follow him but call the cops (who were there in like 2-minutes after the shooting) and direct them to Arbery. But they wanting to take the law into there own hands. It's over for the McMicheals.
@@robkeen6118 Roddie should've minded his own business and stayed on his porch and focused on his home improvement project. Even the Great Judge, quoted Roddy Yelling: "Ya'll got him." Ahmaud would've been long gone after he was attempting to run out of the neighborhood, but Roddie blocked him in and ran Ahmaud off the road 4 times and the GBI found forensic evidence of Ahmaud's clothing fibers on his truck. Roddie is going to serve 30 years before he is considered for parole. The GBI also found kiddie porn on Roddie's cell-phone. The convicts are going to love that!
The DA , jackie Johnson, was arrested for trying to cover up this case. Her sentencing will be coming up . we'll see if the system punishes their own harshly. Justice in this case has not concluded till ALL involved are punished. Isnt the neighbor there for accessory using his car to block arberry? As was the DA trying to block charges & prosecution of this case. 20-30 yrs, a message needs to be sent to ALL corrupt members of the justice system, you will be punished harshly.
@@robertblackbudda and also the 2nd DA , nothing has happened with him yet ( if at all) he wasn't NO no better than the 1st DA. And what about the cops that were on the seen that same day. They didn't handle things Right. Punish them ALL
Quite frankly, past cases that involved Greg McMichaels should be re-looked at. My guess is between him and the DA's office he was so cozy with, there are several cases that should be questioned for validity.
Justice is served. Many lives were destroyed as a result of this trial. Still hoping this experience will help us that much closer to more better union in this country. RIP Ahmad.

@@bonsummers2657 THE REASON THEY EVEN FOLLOWED HIM WAS BECAUSE OF HIS RACE. THEY’D HAVE SEEN A WHITE BOY DOING THE SAME EXACT THING THEY PROBABLY WOULD HAVE OFFERED HIM A BEER AND TO COME INSIDE TO TALK FOR A MINUTE
9:25 shows that the father has no remorse. His reaction when the lawyer tries to comfort him was kind of a "it's not a big deal" or "so what" kind of gesture. Disgusting.
I think you see is the attorneys feel they lost because he got no parole which the defense was hoping for, as her head sinks and he tries to comfort Greg. First Greg wipes a tear realizing his sons life is destroyed (not remorse for the murder though).. Then Greg shrugs at the attorneys only because he is saying "who cares, even with parole I will be dead before I would get it anyway " so it did not matter. They are all garbage and got what they deserved.
He started so confident and slowly saw himself seal his own fate. Justice. Life no parole. Rest knowing you’ve got a nation behind you (at least the humane side of this nation) love to your family and it’s a small token for a tremendous loss. But Ahmad made a difference and we are all grateful for his life and his impact. I’m sorry this has to bring light to oppression. We have a long road but here he go!
Ahmaud made a DIFFERENCE??? In what? The price you pay at Walmart after he stole a TV? He was a criminal. The McMichael's made a mistake, but they're not criminals.
@@terry7893 By definition they are. Sentences were entirely appropriate. You do NOT get to chase, harass, cause someone to fear for their life, create a situation and then claim self defense because of your own actions. Arbery gets to stand his ground.

It is so wonderful to see this flash of justice, to see a reverence for life, for Mr. Aubrey's life. May this bring some comfort to his family. So very sorry this happened.
They didn't opt to wear masks during the trial because they thought they were going back home, but they were sure to wear masks during this sentencing. They didn't want their faces to be seen.
Many people have commented throughout the trial that the judge was a great judge and my thoughts were that he was good but I didn’t see anything great, I just thought this is what judges do. Every trial that I have kept up with, the judges were fair, and concise. But I have to say after this speech I think this judge is great. There are many things that I can point to including using accurate words such as “granular” in reference to the topic of closure. But the one thing that I was really impressed with is when he spoke about how after they had killed Ahmaud, how they turned their backs. That pointed out the callousness of their character.
Hell, in some states you don't have to pass the Bar to practice law or become a Judge. Apparently you have to have passed the Bar but not actively practiced law to become a Supreme Court Justice. That pretty much sums up why the wide swing of the pendulum!
What rock did you crawl from under? Slither back under it. People like you who refuse to see reality are part of the problem. The fact that these 3 demons took one step toward the murder they committed shows tota disregard for human life and pure hate deeply rooted in their souls. The entire video is sickening and horrific. The judge did a great job.
I walk my puppy by a beautiful construction site of a house. I walked to the window and peered in to take a look. As a black woman in Texas I realized I had just put my life on the line. How sad is that??
This judge was sick of all the bullshit these ppl been doing and getting away with it now why couldn't that judge see that in Florida with the Zimmerman case same damm scenario but thank god for this judge
I was just thinking about Trayvon and how this case is so similar. I wish Trayvon could have had some justice. They got it so wrong in that trial for sure. It's so horrible. Thankfully they got it right this time, for once
Can you imagine having a judge like this serving in ALL county, state, and federal courts. Awesome judge, very impressive statement before rendering the sentencing.
This Judge is ONE of a kind. I've never heard a Judge speak with this type of compassion.Thank you for being the MAN that you are.
This judge is Amazing. But sadly, most judges aren't that compassionate. Just like most people aren't that compassionate. Which is why giving random people too much power will always be problematic. Like police policing themselves for example. that will always end badly.
Yes and in GEORGIA 👏👏👏
The judge spoke the facts gbless the truth. The three men convicted thereself. I wouldnt want to ever visit or live there. They say N.Y is bad this was like a three world country.
Thank You Jesus for Judge Wamsley, through whom You exacted justice upon the defendant.
Agreed
This judge wasn’t for black or white he spoke about how u treat a human
100%
Damn straight!
Absolutely!
Actually this judge WAS for black & white ppl. Those of us who believe in the fellowship of all people as humans who ARE BLACK...ARE WHITE...ARE ASIAN...ARE HISPANIC...ARE NATIVE TO THE AMERICAS. HE SPOKE TO/FOR US ALL. All who believe in right things and justice FOR ALL! And he sure did demonstrate this in his summation. God has blessed him with a true discerning mind filled with compassion AND TRUTH!
May the fair mentally balanced people of the land rejoice. And may those who disagree with this verdict and believe in injustice listen to what he stated and maybe a light of CORRECTION in their mind (the mind of "in ERROR" thinking) change for the better.
@Roger Rabbit feel free to donate to the McMichaels "Soap on a Rope GFundme" 😂😂😂😂😂
The fact that neither father or son stood up while the judge spoke, during sentencing. This shows just what rude, disgusting bullies they are, who don't regret their actions.
I thought the same thing.
In their minds, they were probably thinking, "what's the fucking point, I'm getting life regardless."
They are so full of hate that they are shocked to learn that anyone actually has found that they did something wrong…
they aint thinking about that shit they to worried about getting life
regardless of whether they are getting life, it's called showing character because you value it and believe you are worthy of it. And they obviously do not.
This is EXACTLY why it is best to mind your own business. Leave people alone and stop approaching them. If someone isn’t bothering you leave them alone.
While I agree that this is sound advice on how to live life, there have been many occasions where bystanders have saved someones life or assisted in an altercation that saved someones life. Here recently a little girl was saved from her kidnapper after a random person noticed her odd behavior. There was a scuffle and chaos in the attempt to stop the guy from fleeing with her. Ultimately the kidnapper was arrested and the little girl returned to her family. She had been missing for about a year. Its definitely a roll of the dice when it comes to these things, and the person making the decision better right. Because these are the consequences for getting it wrong. They are spending life in prison. Look at the people trying to stop Kyle Rittenhouse, they also got it wrong and paid with their life.
Well said.

There were no land boundaries either. Telling someone you own the land "as far as the eagle flies" isn't specific.

Lot's of incompleteness on this trial. Arbery was snooping at the Satilla property for months, at least five different occasions, including at night. Arbery was also known nearby as the Robber Jogger, amongst nearby convenience stores. Arbery also had a schizoaffective disorder which made his behavior bewildering for the McM's. Arbery had to talk to cool things down,….. the McM's tried to talk with him but Arbery remained mute,…. and then aggessed on the gun,… the idea was that Arbery would stop, and they'd wait for the police to take over.
They have remorse for this death, but, they felt justified given his repeated suspicious behavior and not acknowledging the callouts of inquiry about his activities. But, the McM's should've only monitored Arbery, in waiting for the police rather than getting up in his face,… other than to inquire. Life in prison is excessive for the punishment. Arbery is guilty also. And besides that, check out Arbery's criminal record over the prior decade.
Listened to the whole thing. This judge seems like a truly decent person.
Good person who was bipartisan.

The judge is telling a lie in this video. These guys didn’t set out to harm Arbery. They should have left him alone, but Arbery grabbed the shotgun from one of them and that’s why head was. This judge is acting out for the TV audience.

This case had judge who was deeply moral and chief prosecutor who was brilliant.
The chief prosecutor lady LIED several times about the McMichael's. She is NOT brilliant.
@@terry7893 Where did she lie ?
@@iamwhatiam187 She lied many, many times. 1) She called them "criminals". They weren't criminals. They were people who made a mistake. That's a big thing. Someone who is robbing a store is a criminal. Someone who is trying to stop a crime, is not.
2) She said they "shot Ahmaud just because he was black". That's a lie. They didn't shoot any black children. They didn't shoot any black elderly. They didn't shoot any black women. Why? Because none of them matched the description of someone who was in the house. But Ahmaud DID match the description.
3) She compared them several times, about how when working in a group, they are all guilty because if someone goes in to rob a store, they don't mean to shoot anyone but say give me the money, the clerk grabs the gun and he gets shot and killed, then everyone involved is guilty, even the getaway driver. Yes fine. IF it's a robbery or other crime. But it's NOT. It was 3 guys trying to STOP a crime.
@@terry7893 What crime they were trying to stop ?! Troll
@@terry7893 what crime were they stopping?The owner of the unfinished house confirmed Ahmed stole nothing from his house.The prosecutor stated a citizen 's arrest only applied to one who witnessed a crime and not applicable to criminals powered by paranoia,preconceived ideas,profiling and pure hate.They had no locust standi to go after him.They used excessive force .They are arrogant, cold blooded killers.And yes,the prosecutor rightly called them criminals. What don't you understand?

Awesome words of wisdom from the judge.

This judge considered EVERYTHING in this case very thoroughly from what was said by the defendants and their demeanors to the weapon used to the footage and social media post to the innocent situation that turned fatal and to the pain that the family feels to lose a loved one in this horrible fashion. The minute of silence he took was a galvanizing moment as it was only a fraction of the time that AA was faced with terror. With the humility the judge showed, I imagine him picturing a son or grandson of his facing that same type of terror and how he would feel if it was a situation that he himself had to endure. This is a honorable judge who held no bias and called it down the line like it was suppose to be called. Much respect to him for bringing forth a righteous decision.
Great comment my friend.

Yessssss!!!! Perfectly said!
BIG UP AND ETERNAL RESPECT TO THE LOVELY JUDGE, 'TIMOTHY WALMSLEY '. THEY SHOULD MAKE A STATUE OF HIM, NAME A COURT BUILDING IN HIS NAME'. AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST, ' TO SHOW RESPECT AND HONOUR BY MAKING HIM A, 'SUPREME COURT JUDGE', IN THE NOT TO DISTANT FUTURE.
Well said
The judge finally laid out what the rest of us wanted to say
yes...he was pandering big time.
Judge Walmsley is Supreme Court material. He is insightful , empathetic, knows the law and was a "breath of fresh air" in the whole debacle. The Prosecutor-in-Chief did a masterful representation of what really happened. Kudos to you Madam. You both have restored our faith in what we foreigners know America can be. With apology to Tolstoy "It was the best of humanity - It was the worst of humanity".
It’s frightening that there are multiple individuals in families and neighbors that committed this crime, as opposed to one sick individual. These men did not think they would be held accountable either! All of these families and loved ones will have dramatically different lives now. This is the example of racism, vigilantism and white privilege that exists in this country. We have to stop the hatred that we hold for one another. We can’t continue on this road.
Amy The problem is you can't legislate someone's heart whomever they may be !! Travis McMichael's was doomed in the womb just like bad bowl haircut Roddie Bryan !! Sister they're old as dust and to undo their way of thinking its like asking me to peel off my black skin with tweezers !!
Amen
Amen to that.
When people are together, they can function as a mob, and they abdicate their own feeling of moral culpability for their actions. It is a dangerous aspect of human nature, and one which can not be tolerated. Standing up to those around you and standing apart can be challenging, but it must be expected of all citizens. These men failed.

I also saw the video of the cop when Ahmad was dying and he was breathing - but no one went over to check on him. They treated him worse than a dog and made fun of his toenails - what kind of terrible person/lawyer do you have to be to do that? This is shameful to happen in America in 2021.

Most of Travis McMichael's attitude likely came down through his father's decades old hostility toward people unlike himself and law enforcement which usually never answers to anyone...
... Parents have to be careful about hating, b/c it can play out even in their child's life later.
Yes and ppl have to teach their kids to think for themselves and have their own thoughts and judgements. Just bc my dad says GO I'm not going if it's not a valid reason to me.
Well, I've said maybe now Travis' son has a chance to grow up Loving ALL People, now that Dad and Gpa won't be teaching him to Hate others. I don't care what anyone says. THIS WAS A RACIST ASS HATE CRIME. And now they have to live the rest of their lives with the very kind that They Hate
I have distanced myself from many close family members because of deeply dysfunctional beliefs. We have to choose to be better even if it means leaving family members behind....
No doubt about it. I know Travis hates his father now. They didn't even look at each other. Travis knows what he did was wrong but is a product of his dad. Greg McMichael has a black heart. He’s an old-school racist to his core. He still doesn't feel he did anything wrong.

That's about all they're actually guilty of, otherwise they would have been justified and would have been let go free. That doesn't make them bad people.

Let's be honest, Ahmaud was not training for the Boston Marathon. I'm a former long distance runner who used to run between 100-120 miles per week, during the U.S. Running boom from the 70's -80s.

I'm an Irish- American and i wouldn't dare go running through the Mission Hill Projects or Blue Hill Avenue, unless i wanted to get shot & killed for being white. And when i grew up in the D-St. Projects in South Boston, during the 60s -70s, it would've been just as dangerous for a Black Person to run through "Southie," where Whitey Bulger & Steve "Rifleman" Flemmi used to shoot at Blacks for target practice.

The only difference is that the mountain men would've buried him in the woods. The nearest neighbor would be 25 miles away. So, like Whitey Bulger used to tell his 6 year old son, if no one saw it happen, it never happened. These 3 idiots that killed Ahmaud, would've gotten away with it, in the backwoods of Maine.
I just can't wrap my head around what they did. Killing someone because of their skin color has always seemed so damn stupid to me. I grew up around some virulent racists and the more I heard them spout their stupidity, the less I understood it.

The only time you should ever confront anybody about potentially break the law is if they’re on your property your own property stealing something or going through stuff just because they went up to a new construction site to look around does it mean they were committing a crime he was probably curious I have walked up the new house is under construction just take a quick peek at what was going on I didn’t disturb nothing I have come from the people that were on my property looking around at stuff not because they were curious because they were looking for something to steal.

As a white police officer from Wisconsin. This entire event has been disgusting. Especially the actions of the first officer on scene.
He arrived, exited his vehicle observed the scene and even after he heard one of this fuckers say. "He had no choice."
The "officer" did nothing.
Hedidn't detain anyone. He didn't begin first aid. No, he walked up to Mr Arbury, heard the incriminating statement, and simply requested crime scene tape, and walked back to his trunk.
Then he told the 2nd officer on scene. "He's about to be 10-7."
In my neck of wood, we would say 10-42. Which by the book means, "End of Shift."
It has since been adopted, by officers to mean death...
He knew this man was dying yet did nothing...
Anyone who thinks this was a matter of "self defense" or "stand your ground," is too focused on skin color. This was clearly a matter of racial harassment and murder. Those men were not trying to make a "citizen's arrest." They were simply trying to start trouble.
In Georgia it’s now unlawful they erased citizens arrest law because it was racist from its very creation. It was designed for whites to be able to apprehend blacks under Jim Crow southern law. Essentially legalized Lynching. Look it up. However under modern interpretation it’s used as defense to witnessing a felony. However in Georgia until this was disbanded (after Aubrey) you were not allowed to hold someone at gun or weapon point. You were only allowed to restrain them with your hands. After witnessing a felony. Trying to attempt a citizens arrest with a loaded firearm is a crime. If you don’t have the right to self defense you can’t use the gun. Otherwise it’s brandishing. Class one misdemeanor. Or felony. Depending on the circumstances and or the state. So even if they were trying to make a citizens arrest their still wrong. I received my Georgia weapons permit in Brunswick less than 15 miles from where this happened when I was stationed 30 min up the road at exit 1 in kings bay. I still hold and cary with this Georgia issued permit.
@@Ricardo-eg3wn
It is everyone's God-given right to defend themselves, and that's exactly what Ahmaud Arbery was doing. The McMichaels would not let him out of the neighborhood and he believed he was going to die anyway. Arbery attacked McMichael and he had every right to do so. Even if Arbery had thrown a stick or a brick at the McMichaels, that would've been the right thing to do. Furthermore, it is illegal to chase someone with a gun.
@@ulyssesgrant2782 I concur . If you stalk and brandish a weapon at someone they have the right to defend themselves. - however if the police understood citizens arrest law they should have arrested the mc Michael’s on the scene as soon as they said citizens arrest. My response to that would have simply been…. What felony did you see him commit? And why did you have a gun on you when you approached him. My immediate charges would have been brandishing, stalking, and false imprisonment, however I would have sought clarification on the murder before writing it up. That’s just me. Based off of their initial testimony. They need to charge the first officers on the scene with collaboration and or negligence. If I can point out three obvious charges from the jump. Why did it take them weeks to arrest these fools? From living there for 5 years and seeing how these bubbas operate I can tell you. Southern good ol boy system. I would also like to point out that every federal law enforcement agency has personnel stationed right up the road at FLETC…. So this sentiment resonates in law enforcement to collaborate with the good ol boys. All the way to the top. Fbi needs to externally investigate GBi. And the Brunswick police dept. as well as Camden county sheriffs. This racism and corruption doesn’t stop with one retired law enforcement officer and his son and the neighbor. It’s a lot more of those fools that think and act the way these men did. And their still in power. Take down the whole system. Not just three of them. The issue is is why did these three men sleep at home the night they committed murder and why did it take the case being blown up on social media just to get them charged? Because that entire police system is corrupt and racist.
@@Ricardo-eg3wn

Where's that DA who said there was no crime worthy of investigation that took place...GET HER!!

Around 1997 while living in Hampton, Virginia, I had a similar scary situation, but luckily I got away. I was walking home from work with a coworker. A block after the coworker and I went our separate directions I walked passed a driveway that had a truck in it. I didn’t notice until the truck attempted to start multiple times as I walked by. Once the truck started they passed by slow and said something I couldn’t make out, got to the stop sign and turned right. As I got to the intersection I found the truck was quickly whipping a U-Turn. I turned left and continued walking, but heard it speed up so I started jogging, knowing that the path I was taking was on the right a couple houses down. The truck increased speed behind me. I kept calm and jogging. As the truck got closer I did a 90 degree cut right, to the path leading behind the Middle School. From that path to my apartments on the other side of and across the street from the school was a good 4 football fields away. I ran it, holding both pockets of my Taco Bell uniform, in around 30 seconds flat. World Record timing. Barely felt like my feet touched the ground. My heart is racing now just remembering and typing this. 👊🏾
Breaks my heart that this kind of thing happens all the time. Sorry this happened to you.😢
What do you think they wanted?

If I had a judge putting my shyt on full display after murdering someone, I'd hang my head low. The fact that these defendants were able to keep their heads up and maintain eye contact tells me they are true psychopaths.
They thought they got that white privilege on deck😡🤣

Judge was excellent as was the prosecutor the whole way through this trial. Easily handled 3 lawyers who were less than mediocre
The best lawyer in the country wouldn't have stood a chance defending these fools.
@@jimsachtjen119 That's not true actually. Because of how the American justice system works a good lawyer could have got them off.
God bless this judge!!
Thank you for being a human being. Thank you for your humanity Judge. Bless you and your family.
Vote for him next time he runs for election.
@@picometer472 I can’t. I’m Australian.
He used their own quotes against them, great judge
Actually, he somewhat twisted their statements. This judge is playing for a national TV audience. The case will take a few years to be overturned, but it is very likely to be overturned and a new trial granted. The judge was not going to have an acquittal in this case. Not on his resume.
@@MrJamberee Hopefully for Roddie Bryan. But the McMicheal's know now that they went too far. They were stupid by not calling the cops in the beginning. Arrogant by saying, "I'll blow your blanking head off." And if your going to be a gun owner you better know the gun laws, like self defense. You can follow him but call the cops (who were there in like 2-minutes after the shooting) and direct them to Arbery. But they wanting to take the law into there own hands. It's over for the McMicheals.
Are u dumb or dumber? They killed em in cold blood 🩸 I say put em under the jail
@@OneWhoKnowz Who's Dumb?
@@robkeen6118 Roddie should've minded his own business and stayed on his porch and focused on his home improvement project. Even the Great Judge, quoted Roddy Yelling: "Ya'll got him." Ahmaud would've been long gone after he was attempting to run out of the neighborhood, but Roddie blocked him in and ran Ahmaud off the road 4 times and the GBI found forensic evidence of Ahmaud's clothing fibers on his truck. Roddie is going to serve 30 years before he is considered for parole. The GBI also found kiddie porn on Roddie's cell-phone. The convicts are going to love that!
Justice has been served...Prayers to all of the families, especially Arberry's mom, dad, and sibling
The DA , jackie Johnson, was arrested for trying to cover up this case. Her sentencing will be coming up . we'll see if the system punishes their own harshly. Justice in this case has not concluded till ALL involved are punished. Isnt the neighbor there for accessory using his car to block arberry? As was the DA trying to block charges & prosecution of this case. 20-30 yrs, a message needs to be sent to ALL corrupt members of the justice system, you will be punished harshly.
@@robertblackbudda and also the 2nd DA , nothing has happened with him yet ( if at all) he wasn't NO no better than the 1st DA. And what about the cops that were on the seen that same day. They didn't handle things Right. Punish them ALL
Going to jail for life isn't justice!! A life for a life for a life is justice!!!
@@coreyhaney4816 All have federal court cases which carries death sentence
We refer to it as justice anyway!
Quite frankly, past cases that involved Greg McMichaels should be re-looked at. My guess is between him and the DA's office he was so cozy with, there are several cases that should be questioned for validity.
The 3 stooges played stupid games, so they win stupid prizes. Have fun in jail boys you've earned it. Enjoy your time!
The D.A. was indicted. Let's hope she gets some prison time.
Samething I was thinking
What a terrible way to die . Hunted down . Heart breaking how this young man died . Having a son I could not imagine
THIS JUDGE GOT IT RIGHT!!!
Justice is served. Many lives were destroyed as a result of this trial. Still hoping this experience will help us that much closer to more better union in this country. RIP Ahmad.
Amen!
These felons did the crime and tried to get away with it while receiving help from Jackie Johnson.
Rest in Peace Ahmaud. We run with you and We love you!
Run out of Walmart with him

Arbery was snooping at the Satilla property for months, at least five different occasions, including at night. Arbery was also known nearby as the Robber Jogger, amongst nearby convenience stores. Arbery also had a schizoaffective disorder which made his behavior bewildering for the McM's. Arbery had to talk to cool things down,….. the McM's tried to talk with him but Arbery remained mute,…. and then aggessed on the gun,… the idea was that Arbery would stop, and they'd for the police to take over.
They have remorse for this death, but, they felt justified given his repeated suspicious behavior and not acknowledging the callouts of inquiry about his activities. But, the McM's should've only monitored Arbery, in waiting for the police rather than getting up in his face,… other than to inquire. Life in prison is excessive for the punishment. Arbery is guilty also. And besides that, check out Arbery's criminal record over the prior decade.
@@bonsummers2657 AWWW GO CRY ON MOMMYY’S LAP 😭YOU BIG F**KN BABY NO MATTER WHAT HE DID HE DIDN’T DESERVE TO DIE BECAUSE OF IT!!! YOUR COMMENT REALLY SAYS A LOT ABOUT WHO YOU ARE
@@bonsummers2657 THE REASON THEY EVEN FOLLOWED HIM WAS BECAUSE OF HIS RACE. THEY’D HAVE SEEN A WHITE BOY DOING THE SAME EXACT THING THEY PROBABLY WOULD HAVE OFFERED HIM A BEER AND TO COME INSIDE TO TALK FOR A MINUTE
This judge is Admirable! He is what America is supposed to be and the McMicheal’s is what America actually is! Let that sink in!
Hopefully this stops others of thinking they have the power to be Judge , Jury and executioner.
9:25 shows that the father has no remorse. His reaction when the lawyer tries to comfort him was kind of a "it's not a big deal" or "so what" kind of gesture. Disgusting.
I think you see is the attorneys feel they lost because he got no parole which the defense was hoping for, as her head sinks and he tries to comfort Greg.
First Greg wipes a tear realizing his sons life is destroyed (not remorse for the murder though).. Then Greg shrugs at the attorneys only because he is saying "who cares, even with parole I will be dead before I would get it anyway " so it did not matter.
They are all garbage and got what they deserved.
I noticed that. It's awful what they did.
He started so confident and slowly saw himself seal his own fate. Justice. Life no parole. Rest knowing you’ve got a nation behind you (at least the humane side of this nation) love to your family and it’s a small token for a tremendous loss. But Ahmad made a difference and we are all grateful for his life and his impact. I’m sorry this has to bring light to oppression. We have a long road but here he go!
Ahmaud made a DIFFERENCE??? In what? The price you pay at Walmart after he stole a TV? He was a criminal. The McMichael's made a mistake, but they're not criminals.
That Road is so long if you had a jet flying at 1000 miles an hour it would take a year to get there.
@@terry7893 By definition they are. Sentences were entirely appropriate. You do NOT get to chase, harass, cause someone to fear for their life, create a situation and then claim self defense because of your own actions. Arbery gets to stand his ground. Pity he was unable to get the shotgun and turn it on the McM's
@@terry7893 you are absolutely wrong!! The convicted criminals, and thugs are those 3. Murder is worse crime than theft, with that said the worst criminals and thugs here are the McMichaels. Go visit them in prison!
The DA that tried to cover it up should get Life with parole also
Should be without parole.
I agree! There needs to be justice for the role he played.
Nah. The more power the more accountability.
She likely enabled this type of climate for years, and actively worked to subvert justice in who knows how many cases? She failed both the personal and professional moral tests in front of her.

@@bonsummers2657 Make up lies somewhere else
It is so wonderful to see this flash of justice, to see a reverence for life, for Mr. Aubrey's life. May this bring some comfort to his family. So very sorry this happened.
They didn't opt to wear masks during the trial because they thought they were going back home, but they were sure to wear masks during this sentencing. They didn't want their faces to be seen.
Many people have commented throughout the trial that the judge was a great judge and my thoughts were that he was good but I didn’t see anything great, I just thought this is what judges do. Every trial that I have kept up with, the judges were fair, and concise. But I have to say after this speech I think this judge is great. There are many things that I can point to including using accurate words such as “granular” in reference to the topic of closure. But the one thing that I was really impressed with is when he spoke about how after they had killed Ahmaud, how they turned their backs. That pointed out the callousness of their character.
All judges are not the same/fair..Kyle Rittenhouses judge was very bias..smh
Do you know what clairvoyant means?
@@soldierwoman89 Spot On!!!! I was thinking that exact same thing. All judges are not the same.
Hell, in some states you don't have to pass the Bar to practice law or become a Judge. Apparently you have to have passed the Bar but not actively practiced law to become a Supreme Court Justice. That pretty much sums up why the wide swing of the pendulum!
What rock did you crawl from under? Slither back under it. People like you who refuse to see reality are part of the problem. The fact that these 3 demons took one step toward the murder they committed shows tota disregard for human life and pure hate deeply rooted in their souls. The entire video is sickening and horrific. The judge did a great job.
I sure am glad Roddie made a record of everything that happened that day! Thanks, Guy! Couldn't have done it without you!
Yeah, thanks Roddick. I might even put something on his books...
Mind you, if Roddy had not been involved Mr. Arbery would be alive today, able to escape the criminal son & father.
This whole situation was senseless.
@@daysjours excellent point!
@@bf2940 lol
This judge is a great man and so glad to see justice served!! R.I.P....Ahmaud 🕊🕊
I walk my puppy by a beautiful construction site of a house. I walked to the window and peered in to take a look. As a black woman in Texas I realized I had just put my life on the line. How sad is that??
It's good for you since you have learned not to walk on other people's property.
This judge should be on the Supreme Court cause he’s honest and go by the law.
This judge was sick of all the bullshit these ppl been doing and getting away with it now why couldn't that judge see that in Florida with the Zimmerman case same damm scenario but thank god for this judge
I was just thinking about Trayvon and how this case is so similar. I wish Trayvon could have had some justice. They got it so wrong in that trial for sure. It's so horrible. Thankfully they got it right this time, for once
Agree
George not getting away with that lol. The way the judge is dealing with these idiots is how God will deal with him
Blame the jurors for Trayvon case. They found Zimmerman not guilty.
Or the judge on kyle rittenhouse. Theor corrupt and deep in pockets
Can you imagine having a judge like this serving in ALL county, state, and federal courts. Awesome judge, very impressive statement before rendering the sentencing.
This judge is a lovely human being!
