Exactly! Why did he get out of the truck in the first place? Self defense my ass
Exactly!!!! If you were scared for your own and your father's life and you didn't want your son fatherless, what the hell are you doing getting out of your truck and confronting the "threat"????!!!!!
@@BurroGirl so well said!! Why chase a threat over home that’s not even yours. These are country neighborhood wannabe gangstas. I wish they would try that in a city where real thugs are, but they’re about to meet real thugs in jail.
Exactly!
Right. The "I saw the shark in the water and I feared for my life, so I jumped out of the boat to defend myself against the shark.
He just doing what his grandpa taught him..
This is the Old Mason Dixion South SECRET Tradition man..!
These guys aren't regular people! They got political CONNECTIONS..! In the Old South, for men who fit this profile..? That's a licence to commit whole sale murder...
Travis is a genius. He convicted himself like a master.
Oh man my coworker said the exact same thing...too funny.
Didn't he though!!!!!🙃
Didn't he though!
good work coming from one of the good ole boys.
he fundamentally believes he was doing the right thing. And his lawyer isn't the sharpest tool in the box.
Two armed men and another in a truck trying to block him, that kid must have been scared to death...
No he was shot
yes no one should have to go through what he endured. esp. at the hands of others. they think they had the right to do what they did. but ahmaud had no rights, but to surrender to them. and they were complete and total strangers, armed at that. if i came at someone like they did i would not be surprised if they fear for their life. not even common sense, but human instinct.
I don't think so, he was mad, which is why he started hitting the guy and grabbed the gun, big mistake.
Of course he was scared to death!! He was fighting for his life! Can you imagine how he felt knowing he was getting re a dying to die!
I don’t know about y’all but if I was chased, yelled out by two men in a truck, who showed me they have a gun, I think my instinct when the guy got out with his gun, is do exactly what Ahmad Arbery did, and fight for my life…he already tried to flee, next thing to do is…grab the gun from him. Anyone who says the victim was wrong in this are prob just like the men who thought they could get away with it!
The 3 Stooges allowed Larry to get on the stand an incriminate themselves again lol this is priceless lol
I’m literally baffled 🤦🏾♀️ Like this was your case. Ask for a deal my man.
Racists are a stubborn people.
The prosecutor was putting jurors to sleep with too much 'dead air' and bland presentations of video recorded evidence that was explosive. She needs to get fierce and not droning. We all got the drone coverage.
There are zero brain cells between these three mouth-breathers...
Yeah..I don't understand that either..
Maybe they are sending veiled threats to all of their political friends in that small town...?????
They hunted him. Trapped him, and killed him.
someone else saw, the McMichael's confronted Ahmaud Arbery and Ahmaud Arbery attacked them.
@@anunnakielohim2727 Gregory McMicheal told Ahmuad Arbery to stop or he would
Blow Him Away which is a threat of murder.
When Travis McMicheal exited his pickup truck aiming a loaded shotgun at
Ahmuad Arbery he commited the crime of Assault With A Deadly Weapon.
Ahmuad Arbery had a legal right to attempt to disarm the threat against his life.
There is a reason why the 3 Racist Murderers was charged with 4 Felony Crimes
and Federal Hate Crime charges.
This is a secret tradition of the Mason Dixon South of the USA.
Look up; "STRANGE FRUIT".
On purpose
@@alexrichardson5731 A-men A-men A-men ToGodBeTheGlory
That first shot is before they actually start fighting, you hear the gun shot like she said as soon as Arbery turns that corner. Travis was lying.
He was lying since the beginning of the shooting everything he said was a lie he's a republican like Trump lie lie lie lie
yes...
Trying to talk to someone with a gun. Is like talking to a pitbull chasing you GTHFOH...

I want to add something my son said after watching bits of this murder:
"All 3 of these men need put in prison for LIFE. They are too STOOPID to be wandering the streets and being with the general public."
I have to agree. It simply cant be explained away.
It CAN be explained.. Sir..

Defense is lame,they are GUILTY AS HELL OF MURDER IN THE FIRST DEGREE
It's not so much that the defense is "lame", there is no defending what these 3 did to a perfectly functioning, beautiful human body.
I’m thinking Capitol murder… completely planned.
@@btravelmom5964 personally hope they get convicted and the ultimate penalty
@Martin White I’m sorry but Kevin gough seems like he got his law degree from icdc college. Maybe he is better when he has a better case
Kevin Gough got his degree from a good college, there was just NO defending these murderers@nts8035
They tracked him down.They hoped in their trucks and tracked him down like prey.They even filmed it.He didn't approach until he had to fight for his life when the gun came out.Natural response.
If they didn't have a guns they wouldn't have followed him!!!!
Big facts
If only arbery had a gun to. I would support him 1000% in a self defense claim
Cowards!!
Exactly
How can you claim self defense defense when you are are chasing someone hunting them down???
Easily when you recognized that the suspect is the one you have seen doing some criminal activity earlier. McMichaels didnt do anything, Bryant was the one who chased Arbery.
@@Raimond799 oh BTW the McMichaels did not see AA commit any felony on any day let alone in the past and no one told them THAT day they saw a felony being committed and one or the other was required by statute in order to do a citizen's arrest. SO, no legal citizen's arrest, no legal basis for threatening AA, chasing him, approaching him threateningly with THREE lethal weapons.
@@Raimond799 what was that criminal activity?
@@davidhoward6207 baiting three white boys into going to prison for life
@@BurroGirl It doenst matter, they recognized the man who has terrorized that neighborhood.
Absolute B.s. You can hear him shoot before Ahmaud even touches the gun. He basically killed him as he ran round the truck. Well done Linda 🙌
At the sentencing, the Judge said it was chilling, when he saw Travis raise the gun to shoot Ahmaud. I think there was a blown up picture.
Travesty McMurderer shot Ahmaud right when he came to the front of the truck. It was only 1 or 2 seconds when the lethal shot was fired. Straight up lying.
You are absolutely correct
Yeah you're supposed to wait until after the criminal has successfully grab your gun before you open fire😆
Jesus you people are wetarded
@@sharonfrazier4217 yes how dare he raised a gun and shoot a man who was trying to attack him... the proper thing to do is get down on your knees and kiss the criminals ass😆
Once again... how does one claim self defense when chasing someone down with a gun. If you are afraid for your life why the hell are you chasing him? AND>>>YOU have the gun HE has NOTHING
Its America again gone wild and do not practice there own laws
I can claim I'm a moon nazi jew from Uranis in court. Dosent make it true or reasonable or sensible or sane.
Right
@@fishbord yes, but what concerns me is that the defense lawyer thinks it will fly.
@@carolynbridgeman5981 Chuckle, what else does he have ?
😂😂😂 Travis testimony gave all 3 a one way ticket to prison
You ain’t lying, I wonder who idea was it for this clown to testify
How ?
Why did his lawyers allow him to testify..?
@@parallax9281 Can’t stop a defendant from testifying if they insist, you can only advise.
@@TobyChannel His, I’m sure.
You chased him until he had nowhere else to go and even after you had shot him twice he was still overpowering you and that's when you shot a third time. May your day's be spent going over this while you sit in your concrete hellhole.
Basically Amuad was kicking Travis's ass despite having a shotgun wound in his chest. Travis's pride, and racism, wouldn't allow him to get beat up by a mortality wounded black man in front of his dad, so he shot amaud 2 more times.

I agree. They should never went after the black guy. However can you imagine if those white guys were white rappers, with a songs that said kill those black mf’ers, like Darrel Brooks does? And if they ran over 20 blacks at a parade. What city in America would not be burning now days?
I don’t like how this court tv lady is explaining. Kind of mechanical
@@silverhorder1969 20 people compared to hundreds of thousands of our lives that you demons took and still take. Since you like to invoke imagination. Imagine if we do to you what you have done to us
As children, we are told if someone pulls up alongside of you run. They was pumped up, they chased a man down and murdered him. He didn't engage them, tried to avoid them but, that wasn't enough.
No..it wasn't enough..40 years ago he would have hung from a rope, and the entire local government would have covered it up.. Like they are attempting now..
You are right . Travis even said that Ahmaund never said anything to him or threatened him. He also said he didn't have anything in his hands. So why was he wanting to talk to him. He said that he was in his house on his couch. So he definitely didn't know where Ahmaund had been . Then Gregory told the Police Officer on the scene that he didn't know what Ahmaund had done.
@@geraldineallen8060correct they just seen a black man running
His chain of events does not match his attitude. He's smiling, even laughing at times. Someone that went through that kind of trauma would not have an “I DID WHAT I DID!” attitude. He should use that same energy with his words. The jury should hear called him an “ F-ING N-word after he MURDERED ADMAUD!
Welcome to the Mason Dixion Deep South..
This particular case exposes the tip, of a very real iceberg...
Yeah that smirk REALLY made me angry.
Andrea, dont U worry. All that racist spew will be in the Federal Court Trial. TM's social media, texts and witness statements regarding his statements after murdering Amaud. State of Georgia Finally has hate crime laws and they heard in Federal Courts.
Well said AndiCakes
Just give him life he and his father, this vigilante behavior gotta stop.
Something to consider. Travis mic micel was trying to hunt down and ended up murdering some one. Just like the people who hunted kyle ritenhouse. There for if aubery had a fire arm would suport him in his self defense.
@@fishbord I agree 100%
@Kenneth Showalter Are you saying that killing Arbery, who was not even armed and had never even taken anything from a house with studs, not walls, no doors or windows, and was apparently not secured in any way was somehow justified because "this is America"?
(Side note: this is the U.S., America encompasses many nations, most of which are more civil than
What we see on these posts!)
@@catherinenelson4162 no he had stole from it previously. News just didn't show it. Listen to the home owner.
@Kenneth Showalter you need to learn the law.
The others didn’t testify because they would end up with opposing testimony if they were honest. 🤷🏼♀️
That's likely accurate.
Bad situation to be in if you think having Travis McMichael testify is your best bet out …
Those other 2 defendants are totally intimidated.
The dad looking at his son and thinking "this dummy is going to get us all sent to prison!". He's absolutely right.
The fact that they murdered an innocent man might be the reason!!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂❤real deal
The story is completely FAKE. It's amazing how they admitted to it all being fake and trial but sent the McMichaels away because they were afraid of getting killed by the lynch mob
@@sturdyirons7612 what would you do if a mentally retarded Criminal Who you had been chasing ran up on you and grabbed your shotgun?
Terrorists and politicians got them sent to jail not Travis McMichael who is standing his ground when an insane criminal ran up on him and tried to grab his gun... only someone with mild wetardation since it's illegal to chase CRIMINALS 😆
This jury will find them guilty. Or they are deaf blind and mute
Exactly!!!
Or racist
This trial is so obvious of these racists ass h**** ,these jurors should deliberate know more than 6 or 12 hrs for a guilty verdict, there's know justification
There are people who have done much worse, in situations identical to this one, (Specifically in this region of the USA), that have gotten AWAY with such COLD BLOODED murder Scott FREE..
@@dennispat4012 I say 1 to 2 hrs but I agree 👍
Until I hear “guilty” I have no faith in this so-called justice system, especially in the south.
Me neither!! Just wish I could be certain that’s gonna happen!!!
Why stay?
I have a lot more faith when rittenhouse was found not guilty.....I'm sure these three are going to jail for life...possibly the one who pulled the trigger will get death penalty. There was hate behind this..there fighting a motion to stop the Jury from hearing they used the N word minutes after words on camera refering to victim.
SAME HERE SWEETPEA I'M SO SO SORRY
poor thing.
Thank-you Roddy Bryant for your video, you gave justice to Mr Arbery.
and justice for himself🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Have you sustained a head injury? Some worthless criminal attacks man standing their ground and you gravel for fake story social credit😆
Bryant was a fool
@@Joe-ym6bw they were all morons it's a shame that three men went to jail though because some criminal attacks a couple guys standing their ground
Looks like 3 people going to jail.
As they should ALL three of those racists…GUILTY. Travis McMicheal’s “testimony” was full of lies. Ahmad was running for his life and lost.😭😭 I am white female from the Deep South. I was raised to be color blind…I’m honored to still see people as human beings no matter their skin color. I hope these murderers are put in cells with huge black men that will give them daily beatings for good measure.
The 3 Racist Murderers have been locked up in jail since they was arrested in May 2020 because they was denied bail.
Closing arguments on live Court TV. The DA is a rock star…and still she is interrupted by Kevin Gough🤬 I can say one good thing about Gough, he’s aggressively defending the indefensible. Sure hope he’s getting big bucks to make a fool of himself because he will have earned it.
3 life sentences 😮😂😢
If someone is chasing you you have a legal right to counter attack.He has no legal legs to stand on a clear case of murder.
Travis McMichael stopped his truck in front of Ahmaud, then claimed he was running towards his truck. They cut Ahmaud off and blocked him in.
Nailed his a$$. Good job Prosecution.
They hunted him down like a deer during hunting season! Cold blooded Murder is what it was!!
You can hear the. whistling on the 911 call. They were hunting😠
Most of the deer I hunt have a better chance of surviving than Mr. Arbery on that day.
@@robertklein9190 You're correct about that!!
They left his body there like road kill.
Why did he get out of the truck if he was afraid?
He got out to kill Aubrey!!!! Plain and simple.
If he was afraid he could have kept driving and called the police 🤷🏾♂️
@@thefranchise2563
They parked the truck ahead of him...they had him boxed him...

The poor young man had no other choice he probably thought if I keep running they would shoot me in the back...
Can't out run the
Truck
Can't out run the gun...
He fought for his life...he knew they were hunting him...
Travis is the product of years of his relatives reproducing with each other.
haha
Lol
I have not seen any evidence indicating inbreeding, but it seems as plausible a theory as anything else.
Lmao, I said the same thing!
Definitely not the brightest for sure . Lol he thinks what he did was ok, which blows my mind!
So three grown men couldn't stop one man without deadly force. What does that tell you about these men. Oh yeah Ahmad was unarmed, he had no weapons.
Yeah..But Aubreys murderers have some thing Aubrey didn't have.. POLITICAL CONNECTIONS.
These cats know Judges and police chiefs bruh.
Dude..this was a video lynching; plain and simple..!
If it wasn't for the internet, the TOWN CITY LEADERS would have covered this crime up.. Like they've always done in the past..!
They are cowards
Why doesn't the prosecutor just ask the obvious question,
You ganged up on him, with guns, because, and only because, he was a black man daring to run in your white neighborhood?
WTF IS THIS ?! The prosecution did a very very very good job in this case. If, the prosecutor was on defense side they would be 3 happy billies!
This prosecutor was more prepared than the dumbo binger in rittenhouse case.
Don’t know how they had the front to go not guilty?? Was it all an optical illusion??
Exceptional Prosecutor Linda
She broke him down in pieces before he submitted. Great! Who cares when and how the gun is raised, after a long hunting for no reason.
That, "defense doesn't have to prove a thing" is about as valid as "innocent until proven guilty"... These dudes are going to prison.
I got the shotgun 😂😂
How can it be self defense. The young man was unarmed !!!
What's gets to me is that Right wingers like Officer Tatum etc. are claiming under the law in GEORGIA that they had a right to make a citizen's arrest with a firearm. What they fools forgot to realize that the fact the Ahmuad Arbery did not want to speak to Mcmichaels, ran away from them, and tried to avoid them violated his 5th amendment right. So the citizens arrest gets thrown out the window. You cant use your 2and amendment right to violate someone else's rights. I'm glad this prosecutor is grilling him to his grave.
@@ademango4773 I used to watch officer Tatum but if he’s saying they were trying to make a citizens arrest, then yes, he is wrong…… these guys are the real white supremacists
Good questions Vinnie! Yes, why are they out of the truck?
@@christyhoehn8244 Of course. I actually like Officer tatum channel because some( Im quoting some!) of his views about how the media lies etc. In this case of Ahmuad Arbery, I thought he was very wrong. I know some gun owners even said how wrong his was. It wasn't until I watch this case in depth to realize that the Mcmichaels not only violated his 5th amendment right, also they also accused him of stealing in the property and you cant make a citizen's arrest if you didn't see a crime being committed at the moment. These fools are going down.
He attacked a man holding a gun!
Did anyone notice that he didn't grab the gun until AFTER the shot was fired?????
Yep
He went down fighting, Shot at point plank with a 12G and kept swinging. Low key kinda proud of him.
But he'd already punched him.. so this is irrelevant.
@@idancemyassintothepaint7571 no... he didn't
Yeah it was all on video and he lied completely what he said never even came close to what happened
If they're found not guilty, vigilanteism will run wild both ways and there will be unrest again.
Exactly, a system is only honored when everyone abide by the rules.
At least 2 of the 3 will be convicted. Mow might get away with chasing. Maybe. And I did not misspell anything .
Not really...! This won't be the first time men like this got away with lynching a Black guy..Okay..?
This is exactly why Blacks were not allowed to vote in the south for so long..!

They all put themselves (guns in hand) in situations with unarmed people and murder them. Then they cry how afraid they are and claim self defense. The truth is they look for trouble and kill innocent people. It makes me sick.

I don’t understand how you can reasonably think that if you put yourself into a situation and the person you’re trying to “talk” to clearly is trying to avoid you three different times then you hop out your vehicle with a weapon. I mean if you’re so nervous or threatened why get out of your car?
Why does Travis think that Ahmaud (an innocent man) has to speak to Travis and answer his questions 🤔, and mo way was Travis calm and polite towards Ahmaud, he already accussed Ahmaud for a crime he didn't commit.

@@fishbord this is different from the Kyle case. They were chasing Ahmaud down and then they placed themselves in his way. Ahmaud was trying to defend himself from these people that were trying to act like law enforcement.

She ate him up for breakfast, lunch, and dinner- It's a wrap
Yes he looks (b)eaten! 😂
Travis instigated this. He knew that if he approached Ahmad with a rifle, he anticipated that Ahmaud would grab his gun just so he can find an excuse to kill him and justify "self-defense". His self-defense argument has no credibility.
All that means nothing Georgia law states if u start a conflict and someone die u are guilty no. way out
Finally, the prosecutor had some passion and "in your face" challenges tp the defendant's, "yes Ma'am" fake demeanor. He is still a bigot and she needs to get that out there in the courtroom.
Yes she does but its too late now! That should have been first!!
All their rascism will be exposed in the Federal Trial. Travis's social media as well as what GBI investigator testified to what Roddy Bryan heard Travis call Ahmaud after killing him. These are awful defendants.
Defense should stop bad mouthing the black clergy that are attending. Instead ask them all to pray for their clients! Cause they need help! And travis already appeared guilty sitting in the courtroom . On the witness stand he looked 1000 times more guilty. Fake tears wouldn't have drowned an ant. And didn't convince anyone either. Just crying for himself, cause he knows what it is like for last year to not be able to go home. No remorse, no thought of someone else's life taken. Just let me out of here. He killed a man and put himself exactly where he is now. Sad
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏💯💯💯💯💯💯💯NOW THIS IS FUNNY
Travis answered his own guilty questions.
Just give me a cell 😂😂
Travis M still believes, he was justified in doing, what he did.
That's the impression, I get.
I do too..He's only "remorseful " because he got caught it..either he's going DOWNNNN.
I don’t believe that at all, he knew he wasn’t justified but he thought he could lie about and be believed by a jury.
The attitude Travis McMichael has I'm surprised he hasn't killed anybody before this
He/they never expected this to even get out to the public. There’s someone lying in the street dying and the police are acting as if those dudes just hit a deer. No one is handcuffed or apprehended or anything. I’m surprised no one was offered some food and beverage
The only person that has a self defense argument is Arbery. I hope the jury sees that.
Wth kind of neighborhood is this? Seems like everyone feels the need to carry a concealed weapon! It's like the wild wild west! Take the law into ur own hands! And Barney Fife/1st officer on the scene was a very odd individual...totally clueless...this father/son duo will fry...the third stooge will get lesser charge...this should have never happened, bottom line
Unfortunately thats what's wrong in the world today. Crime is running rampant. Police can't be everywhere and sometimes the people have to protect their property and themselves. Maybe not the best way to handle things, but I don't think it was intentional until guy tried to take gun. Then it could have been either one could have been shot. Going for gun was not the smartest move. He could have waited and ask the guys why they were after him and not have kept running as if he was guilty of something.. Travis said he never said anything. I think if it had been me getting chased, I would have been screaming and yelling HELP!! to get someone to call police. Or Hey I didn't do anything! Sad, but I think it was an unfortunate chain of events that ended up in fight for gun. I couldn't call that murder. Maybe manslaughter.
You have to study the subculture of this particular region of the USA. Once you do..? Everything concerning this case, and the political CONNECTIONS these men have..? Will make perfect sense to you.
This is normal in the south. Everybody has a gun down here. And I live about an hour west of Brunswick. I mean you come into my neighborhood. We all pretty know each other, there’s a couple families I don’t know but I know them when I see them. I know what they drive when they come by and where they live and all. This behavior is not uncommon down here especially in your smaller towns. It is proven by video that he was going into a house that was being built, that does not belong to him. If he were to come to my neighborhood and done what he did, and I seen him. I would have approached him too. A lot of people would have. I would’ve asked him what he was doing and tried to find out what’s going on. Would I have brought a gun with me. Hell no. That’s where this guy messed up and unfortunately it didn’t end well. But the overall behavior in this situation like the other guy said is pretty much normal of this area.
That whole neighborhood is racist in that whole neighborhood has guns 90% of Georgia are racist anyways
Did Ahmaud have a gun? No. A knife? No. An Afro? No. Dreadlocks? No. Was he rapping loudly? No. Could Travis have kicked his butt in a fair fight? Hell no. Ah, there's the rub.
This man is definition of ignorance!! Thank God he's locked up!!!
It's amazing how willing some people are to kill someone
Same thing I said. He had to problem pulling that trigger when Ahmaud turned that corner. He was 100% ready to kill him.
After two years , all three r still answering questions. In court 😂😂😂 !
At what point is arbery allowed to be afraid for his life and protect himself!!! If you claim he is such a threat to you at what point are we allowed to say you were the threat to him.
According to the Kyle Rittenhouse jury, never is the answer to that question.
Hope this is a powerful lesson to my white american brothers and sisters that BLACK PEOPLE DO NOT have to explain their existence to you. Black people don't have to show you freedom papers. Neighborhoods are open to the public unless it's gated. Is it worth it?
It is to them -- if they can get away with it as they have been.
Let the parents of the young man take all their house and land and build a house on it, sue the police station or department. Let all them learn a lesson.

They don’t even own any. The landlord testified they were renting the house in the neighborhood.
Take what they don’t have anything except ignorance and bigotry
That's the thing, they didn't even own the house! 4 grown adults living in a rental, and they had the nerve to think Ahmaud wasn't entitled to be in the neighbourhood! Both adult kids living with their parents, and they think they're superior!!
Ahmaud's mum is pure class.
4:25 Why does he have to refer to his notes, about exactly what happened, when he blasted a young man to death? Wouldn't that moment be ingrained in one's memory, if one was telling the TRUTH? 🤔
These guys scared the hell out of the victim. The defendants crated the situation and they created the fear in the victim and now they can not claim self defense. It sure looks wrong and sounds wrong I hope the jury get what they need to charge these men, I don’t want them living next door to me.
I don't see why this defendant did not try to make a deal to plead guilty in exchange for life in prison w/ no parole. He's going to lose his case and I don't know if Georgia has the death penalty. Personally I'd like to see them all get the death penalty but as a legal question I cannot see why he didn't plea guilty.
Georgia does have the death penalty. This case is not being presented to the jury as a death penalty.
usually death penalty is reserved for child murders, mass murders, cop killers, or during the commission of another felony
It's Georgia most likely they have the death penalty.
@@teresamcreynolds5879 Darn it. I hope they have a horrible time in prison then.
Yep they don't need to be here on earth anymore..how many in here ever seen a movie called the bad seed I think Betty David played in it with the little girl I forgot the little girls name but she was the bad seed killing that man
Honestly from that first shot it looks like he shot him before he even got close to him the first time
Travis had moved to the front of the truck waiting for Ahmaud to appear at the front. When he does, shot 1 is fired at close range in 1 or 2 seconds. He's lying when he says they struggled first.
I just imagine all the times that things like this were swept under the rug before cell phone cameras body cameras or social media
You're scared of him after you chased him for 5 minutes and him never having said one word to you. Lmmfao
How can they sit there with a straight face and say they were scared for their life when they are the ones with the guns. Ahmaud had nothing in his hands. Travis just threw his self defense claim right out the window especially after him agreeing that ahmaud didnt threaten him verbally or physically. If they are all convicted travis is for sure gonna have the longest prison sentence and maybe even his dad too but ole bowl cut roddie will probably have a shorter sentence if convicted.
I think they all face a standard 30 years: felony murder.
I so wish this prosecutor had a chance to question the father, Gregory McMichael. Smart move on the defense part to not let that big mouthed and big headed jerk shoot his mouth off on the stand. That prosecutor would have made him look like a much bigger jerk than he is.
finally someone got what he deserved...thank you, Justice
WTF....is he READING his statement, to answer the prosecutors questions???? How is THAT being allowed?
Defense got clowned
They are going to prison.
He called the preachers to pull up on him!!
His mom shouldn't be allowed to wear helmet in court
😂🎉
W
Ahmaud was shot the minute he turned in front of the truck you can see and hear it, this is stupid.
Funny thing is Travis’ lawyers knew he was going to change his story over and over and they SHOULDN’T have let him take the stand. Linda proved that he’s a liar and that he’s lying. There’s no doubt. That’s why he’s been found GUILTY ON ALL CHARGES. BASED OFF THE VIDEO HIS DAD RELEASED. LMMFGAO!! This is HILARIOUS!
If the courts operated in the manner they claim it to then the prosecutor would not have to spend day after day trying to convince anyone of anything, the evidence should speak for itself without being coached to view the evidence in a particular narrative
She SLAYED him on cross. I don’t see why they allowed their client to get on the stand. Lmmfao. I guess that’ll be his claim of “ineffective assistance of counsel?”
Because that's the only defense they had they had no defense that was the last chance to try to persuade the jury but it didn't work hahaha
Big mistake never testify when you don't have to
Laughs in kyle
To be fair though kyle like Abery was also being chased by crazed lunatics with weapons.
Who the hell is Travis McMichael that he can demand people stop and talk to him?
Whoever 1/2 raised him.
That's that Superior attitude.Peace
@@cynthiasolomon6383 when they're less than mediocre
Its not illegal to be carrying a firearm while asking someone to stop and talk. So long as the firearm isn't pointed/brandished, no law is broken.
@@idancemyassintothepaint7571 no one has to stop for you bc you have no authority.
So guilty, its insane. All that yap yap, motions. It’s all there. You executed Ahmad.
I agree..?? But please understand.. This ain't nothing compared to what politically WELL CONNECTED men like these, got away with in the past..!
If it wasn't for the internet, that small town would have successfully covered this murder up..okay..?
When did he remove safety and ready the gun?
He didn't he had that thing ready to go when he was running down the street
4:26 Travis describes a WHOLE BUNCH of stuff happening before he shot.. TOTAL BULLSHIT .. he shot as soon as Arbery came to the front of the truck.
You are exactly right
I don't get it-These two men parked their vehicle in the street, not in a way that is legal blocking the path of the jogger, this doesn't sound like people who are afraid of a single Black person.
So if you approach me with a gun while I'm unarmed, I'm suppose to act all happy like SpongeBob?
I wonder if Rittenhouse jurors are able to watch this. Both shooters are claiming self defense when the person(s) killed didn''t have a weapon. This is cray cray. America, you guys have a huge problem. Gun violence is way out of control. The "two states" should have broken up long ago.
American citizen here who agrees with you...
The kid that got shot in the bicep DID have a gun and raised his arm to shoot rittenhouse but rittenhouse shot him first, the skateboard kid hit him with the deck of board in the back of his / neck and tried to take his gun from him , rosenbaum not exactly sure what happened other than rosenbaum obviously running after rittenhouse with ziminski firing a “warning” shot while giving chase. Both cases may be claiming self defense but there’s only one actual self defense case and it’s not these guys in Georgia
You are apparently not paying attention to facts in the Rittenhouse case. These are 2 very different cases. Rittenhouse is not likely to be convicted on all counts, whereas the 3 idiots in the Arbery case are very likely to be convicted, which is how it should be.
@@martinwhite418 I understand your sentiment and agree to a certain extent. I think Rittenhouse is going to walk, but as mentioned, the Rittenhouse case is more about gun laws than anything. People talk about the Rosenbaum guy who was committed for sex offences against children. Did Rittenhouse know that, and if so, did he have the right to judge him be killing the guy? Obviously he didn't know the guy was a sex offender, so that point is rendered moot. Why the hell was a kid walking around with a deadly weapon while claiming he was some sort of paramedic? If so, why did he pump four rounds into a person and run away? That does not make sense.
@@BurroGirl No kidding, I have friends in the States whom I love, but I refuse to cross the border. Based on my previous personal experiences, I am literally scared of going south. That is a shame. Please keep in mind that this is not meant to denigrate the many millions of amazing creative, intelligent and compassionate people who live there.
We the people don’t find him credible at all. He has told too many lies. He said he wouldn’t chase anyone he thinks has a gun but yet thinks that it’s possible Ahmaud has a gun on the day that he killed him. He says on 2-11 that Ahmaud reached into his pocket and then ran away. Who reaches for a gun and then runs away??? On top of that, in order for Ahmaud to have reached into his pocket, he would have had to lifted up his shirt because he had on a long t-shirt but he never said that Ahmaud lifted up his shirt. He said that he would have told his father to calm down if he hadn’t seen his neighbor pointing to Ahmaud but he made a decision inside the house to get his shotgun and chase Ahmaud before he came out and saw his neighbor pointing to Ahmaud. There are more lies that he told but I think those 3 lies are enough. It’s really infuriating.
So they already pulled out onto the road before Matt his neighbor was pointing down the road they were already in Pursuit before that it's raid on video
@@billnason7098 Exactly, they’re trying to use Matt as an excuse but when you tell lies, you’re found out.
Vinnie, why are you shocked? None of them have a defense.
No defense can excuse their actions
Travis shut him self as he did to Ahmoud on this cross examination. Life imprisonment no doubt.
It was flight or fight for the young jogger.
This guy always has a smirk on his face! This prosecutor is awesome! And it’s a shame that the defense is scared of well known people sitting with the mother…
Nope!
No matter your level of hatred for another being NOTHING is worth going to prison for the rest of your life.
