How could getting involved in a chase of a person who you don’t know if they did anything wrong be good faith? Actually Roddie was acting stupid not acting in good faith! Roddie’s lawyer is a great witness for the prosecution!🤦🏽♂️
He's trying to prove that Bryan had no way of knowing that Arbery would be killed. But he was killed so the only way they can get off is if it was self-defense. I believe this was in fact self-defense. Arbery could still have run away but chose to attack Travis and punch him in the head. Why did he do that? He was not trapped. Travis thought Arbery was armed and that's the only reason he brought out his gun. I know that if the two McMichaels are determined to be guilty of murder then Bryan must be found guilty too because he participated.
@@crand20033 Are you being deliberately dense? You're putting the onus on Ahmaud who is clearly trying to escape on foot to "get away". He even changes direction when Travis Mcmichael pulls up beside him. Why didn't they drive off? Or stay at home and call the cops with a description. They pursued him and drew guns on him. It was Ahmaud who was defending himself. He didn't bring the gun. He didn't pursue them. He didn't confront them. He didn't want to engage and he certainly wasn't going to let them shoot him without a fight. Would you? You don't have to like Ahmaud but put yourself in his shoes and tell me that they are defending themselves after they chased after you as you ran on foot with weapons in their trucks. Then drive ahead so they can cut you off. Get out of their car and confront you with weapons. Tell me you wouldn't fight for you life.
@@1nhonho Arbery was only trying to get away because he knew he had committed a criminal offense (prowling and trespassing) while out on felony probation. He was not jogging, but rather (the ex-football player) was running as fast as he could and the only want to catch up to him was with vehicles. The McMichaels (both ex-police officers) only wanted to detain him for the police as they were asked to do. He did in fact attack Travis who was holding a gun (it's very clear on the video) and he never would have been shot if he had simply ran away or stopped. Sure they cut him off because that's what cops do. They would have been hailed as neighborhood heroes if only Arbery would have given up and been put back in jail where he belonged. Off duty cops stop criminals every day (and they have guns). They don't just sit there and watch a criminal try to get away. Reference: "A masked man got more than he bargained for when he attempted to rob a fast-food restaurant and the only two customers eating at the establishment ended up being two married off duy police officers who were on a date night held him at gunpoint until he was arrested."
@@crand20033 Do you see anywhere where I say he was jogging?? Of course he was running away because he was trespassing on private property. So did many other people in that neighborhood that didn't get killed for it. The McMichaels were no operating a law enforcement. They were acting as vigilantes. And NO ONE TOLD THEM TO DETAIN HIM. They decided to do that. And brought weapons to pursue an unarmed man over trespassing. Not theft, murder, or even burglary. Ahmaud did not have to stop for these people. He didn't have to talk to them either. And they had no authority to detain or question him anymore than I do you. Once he was faced with a weapon he had to defend himself. Self defense applied. You get that when it comes to the aggressors who brought the weapons, yet you blame Ahmaud when he defends himself. Now THEY are going to be in prison for the rest of their lives where they belong. And so will you some day with that mindset.
@@1nhonho "And NO ONE TOLD THEM TO DETAIN HIM". An unknown black man had been seen repeatedly prowling in that house at least 5 times in the wee hours of the night. A local cop had previously asked Greg to watch the house for the owner who lived there Mr. English (because he knew he was a former cop). He was asked to look for suspicious behavior so he probably felt responsible for identifying a suspect. Mr. Albenzi and Greg were both outside in their front yards when Albenzi saw Arbery coming out of the house. Albenzi picked up his cell phone and was calling police and when Arbery saw him and he began to run. Albenzi signaled Greg with a hand gesture to chase Arbery. Greg saw Arbery hauling ass past him out of the neighborhood and wanted only to question him about why he kept coming to that house (was he looking for something to steal?). He wanted to help the local cops to identify him and give him a trespassing ticket. Prowling at night is a misdemeanor and if they could say it was him on the videos the felony probationer would have gotten years in jail and Arbery knew this.
Because white rasist are not capable of knowing the difference between good or evil? America's damnation is it can't change like Satan it is the same way it is today from it's beginning, neither has it ever entered into they mind and that's spiritual? It's impossible to make friends with white people overall but on a individual basis it's possible but not overall? If I could be anything I wanted to be the last thing I would want to be is white. Extremely uncomfortable for the most part? Believe me I only had bad experiences.
It shows Arbery was actually a guilty criminal who was trying to get away. It shows he was never afraid of those men but rather, he was afraid of the cops and going back to jail. He knew he had been caught prowling and trespassing and he probably had their stolen property at home or in his car. Arbery didn't call for help because he was a convicted felon on probation and he knew the cops were coming and he was going back to jail.
@@Joe-ym6bw The fomer-football player wasn't jogging by them, he was hauling ass by them. How else can they catch up to him but in a vehicle? I don't think Arbery ever saw any guns until the very last moment with Travis got out of the truck. I also believe those two former-cops thought the suspected burglar was armed so they only armed themselves for protection.
Roddy Bryan is the perfect example of how sometimes it is best for one to simply mind their own business. Obviously he didn’t foresee this situation ending in a shooting death, but by helping to box Arbery in with his truck, it made him a party to the crime.
He was doing exactly what is expected of his criminal culture when it comes to getting involved in the kkk mentally of assaulting Black people, this wasn't his first time a man raised in the segregated south; a black man being chased by people he knew, an ex cop and his son. Roddy Bryant wanted to be in on it a coward who knew Ahmud Aubrey was unarmed, because he was running away. In his own words y'all got him and within a few seconds he's in his truck chasing Ahmud Aubrey. And he never calls 911 even after the murder because he believed that Ahmud Aubrey had to be doing something or why else would two white men be chasing a Black man. Roddy Bryant's own upbringing is what got him involved, and he's guilty as hell. But what I do feel sorry for is he had the worst possible defense attorney money could afford.
That good old 400-year blessing kicked in (racism&bigotry) he couldn't resist the urge, it's a nasty colonial birthright , But times up and the blessings are over .
He probably wished that he never hired Kevin Gough, who all but called him an idiot and made absolutely no defense at all other then listen to the noise inside the truck......unbelievable that Roddy Bryant didn't file incompetence on behalf of his lawyers who amounted no defense at all......
You have no right to say grace and Arbery since Ahmaud was in a place he didn’t belong. He stole like a horse thief and should be treated as one. Grace implys innocent and nobody here has it.
On February 11, the Homeowner Larry English told them he never stole anything from his property. I wonder why they didn't believe him. You don't have to believe him either. Now they are in prison because they didn't believe the owner of the property. They probably wake up every morning with this thought.
@Kattakam have they found out what Ahmaud stole because the Homeowner Larry English told them and Officer Rash on February 11 he never stole anything from his property. But Ok. Then Gregory told the Police Officer on the scene that he didn't know what Ahmaud had done on February 23. So I guess you had more information than them
Couple of former cops assigned to neighborhood watch saw a man trying to get away from a crime scene and decided to chase him and then Bryan tried do help them.
@@realmom9288 The neighbors had him on video in that house at least 5 times even in the pitch dark of night. He was a dirtbag thief on felony probation afraid of going back to jail and that's why he was trying to run away as fast as he could.

the shooter lives with daddy so that'd be an issue. They already decided to split up. Travis did not serve his country, sorry, I got distracted. Roddy does have a gun, everyone has a gun in that neighborhood
This lawyer is so bad it would be, comical if this weren’t such a sad case. He actually said it was “Divine Providence” or God who was guiding Bryan to get involved. That is an insane thing for Lawyer to say.
Roddies lawyer indirectly telling the jury that his client is GUILTY 😂 The defendants really needed some hot shot lawyers, a state defender could have done a better job than these jokers!
I play this just to laugh at him getting roasted. He telling the jury, HAY. ... MY CLIENT IS A DUMBASS. That means everything he say can't be used because he is a MORON!! 😂😂
Roddie Bryan should've called the police when he saw the Mcmichaels had guns. Yet he chose to join the chase then Ahmaud was murdered he said he didn't know if it was right to chase him hit him with his truck then attempted to run him over again to the point Ahmaud had to run in a ditch
Wrong narrative. Bryan never saw a gun until the last seconds when Travis got out of the truck. Arbery didn't know the McMichaels had guns until then either. Bryan didn't try to run him over but rather, he tried to block him to help those two former police officers to stop him.
@@crand20033their not former police officers🤣😭 stop lying one of them couldn't even pass the test ! Second of all they had no business chasing that man in the first place just say your a racist and call it a day lying ass
I have a little pity for this guy,,,, but an idiot is an idiot.... he should have mind his own business that day.. but then again, if he didn't video tape the incident, we wouldn't know what had happened...
Honestly in my opinion this closing argument was terrible. Maybe I’m just tired, but it seemed to be very tedious and he would have lost me if I was sitting on that jury. 🤷♀️
I bet Roddy was armed with a gun as well. We will never know bc the cops let him leave and go home with his truck instead of placing it inside the crime scene tape.
It's scary that one quick decision and action you didn't plan ends your freedom for the rest of your life. Im not saying he is not guilty. Guy lost his life, family grieving forever. I think if he thought about what's happening he would do different. Not an excuse and it does look like he has some underlying racism. But i think most of us can make stupid mistakes without being aware how wrong we are. Im not talking about just racism motivated ones but any other bais assumptions. Bottom line he has lots of time to think how stupid he was. Tragedy all around, for the Amad and family the most
I feel terrible for the family and the victim and also feel bad for William 'Roddie' Bryan, he does not come across as evil, racist, ill intentioned or a criminal. He is just too stupid for his own good. What seemed like a good idea to help his neighbors ended up causing a man his life and destroying his own. His second mistake was to get an even stupider lawyer. Had he had a good lawyer or just keep his mouth shut. He would have gotten a much lesser sentence. Glad those other 2 got what they disserve.
Bryan did chase and try to stop Arbery but he was only trying to help the two former cops to catch a suspected thief. Citizens help cops to catch dirt-bags criminals like Arbery every day.
That could well be their stagedy. Because thats why at trial Roddie Bryan acted stupid, suddenly wearing glasses, sucking in his lips, trying to look like s stupid stooge who doesnt even really understand why he is in court. Totally different from the communicative and bragging, smug Bryan at the crime scene.
Normally I don't like crapping on lawyers, but I do think that this lawyer is poor, not because of his argument but because he should have thought a plea. I think the State would have been receptive towards him.
Ahmaud would be alive today if he hadn't attacked Travis. All he had to do was stop and he would have been detained for the cops and he would have been left alive but in jail for misdemeanor prowling while on felony probation. You or I would have stopped but crazy Arbery didn't act normal in the situation where a man had a gun in his hand.
I hear people keep saying that the click from inside the truck was his seatbelt...... why you taking your seatbelt off to make a turn..... doesn't make any sense.. he had a gun
Listen carefully during the video average guy Roddie was cocking the hammer on his gun. So he either hid his gun or the cops didn't even bother searching his vehicle during the day of the shooting.
@@jwritezz The click was from his seat belt. Bryan had no idea the McMichaels would find themselves in a position where they had to defend themselves. The McMichaels had no intention of killing Arbery, they were only concerned he might have a gun so they brought theirs with them. When Travis was attacked he was forced to shoot Arbery to prevent him from stealing his gun and killing him. Our justice system didn't work (as usual) in this case.
Watched this from London, I am absolutely faberglasted that not one of the 3 murderers showed any remorse nor asked Mr.Aubrey's Mom for forgiveness!!!! If that was me I would have been begging for mercy from the court and from the Mom, even if I didn't mean it!!!! It's hard to believe that some Whites hate their fellow Americans Black people so much, that they would rather die than apologize to a Black person. Very sad
And that’s exactly how it is. Did you see any of them go close to the deceased or show any concern as he laid dying ? None has even apologized for loss.
As Roddy Bryan was so stupid not to mind his business so also is his lawyer in this case who is all over exposing himself and his client, a good lawyer would have from the beginning separated from the mc Michael defence and throwing them under the bus,then more sympathy would have be shown to him because of his stupidity.
This buffoon of a trial attorney is delivering what has to be among the worst closing arguments in human history. He must think the jury is stupid: ▪︎ His attempts at self deprecating statements are transparently manipulative. ▪︎ He purposely finds the most number of words to say the simplest things. ▪︎ His description of his client is almost entirely irrelevant. ▪︎. His "Let me take you back in time..." pitch and related quips are entirely irrelevant, annoying and wasteful if the jury's time. ▪︎ His "we lawyers have been taught never to say this...what we say is not evidence..." is a restatement of what the judge has said innumerable times and surely doesn't trick the jury into thinking he's particularly honest - to the contrary, it comes across as transparently disingenuous. ▪︎. His close is replete of instances where he stands on ceremony over meaningless details as if they are critical pieces of evidence demonstrating his client's innocence - for example, he says, "If you watch carefully, you see Mr. Brian pulls out from his driveway to the left, then backs up and straightens out his truck and pulls to the right, when the evidence actually shows Mr. Brian pulled straight out...." Wha...huh? So what? ▪︎ His "Awe shucks..." lawyer shtick isn't fooling anyone. He's a terrible attorney, totally out classed by the polish, persuasiveness and organization of the prosecution.
Say goodbye to your new house Roddie. Should have stayed on your porch and minded your own business. Could have spent the time with your fiancee sitting on the porch on a beautiful sunny day. Off to jail you go!
RB made me look at the little quiet man , the nice man at my Ace hardware who fixes small things like RB did, and wonder if he wasn't just sitting there hating on us all. Made me wonder if he was the kinda guy who would use his truck to attempt to run down a person because of his hateful heart. RB is exactly where he belongs, in prison for life.
This lawyer pretty much helped to convict his own client. What a fool! Irrelevant ? He is chasing him down and helping to pin him down and forced the man off the road and for what reason? Ahmaud hasnt broke any laws. His laywer must be working for the prosecution, on those basis alone Roddie Bryan may have grounds for a new trial.
His problem was trusting the super racist McMichael father and son duo. Trapping and assaulting a lone man with three people,two trucks and two guns should have given the three people pause for concern. They still think k they did nothing wrong but Ms.Dunikoski unraveled that defense quite handily.
it is, legally speaking, irrelevant that bryan 'acted in good faith' regarding his cooperation. however, the fact that he was unaware that guns were involved is highly relevant. i cannot view him as guilty of murder but perhaps guilty of false imprisonment and maybe (aggravated or otherwise) assault.
I admit to feeling sorry for Roddy Bryan. He's the only one of the defendants who has ever seemed regretful to me. Unlike the other two, his reason for participating seems more likely stupidity than hate. Still, a man was murdered. And Ms. Dunikoski is right to say that if Roddy had stayed out of it, Arbery would still be alive. He had to go to prison for that, but I am sorry that his sentence is equal to the others, whose behavior was far worse.
Sickening that he continues to call the video famous in sarcasm. A man was killed and they immediately turned and walked away. Not one person showed concern about Ahmaud being injured on the ground.
There was more footage to this video...... because when he ran him into the ditch I'm quite sure he had his camera on..... all that was delete it and he edited that video also
Looking back at this they have a Habeas case. This lawyer shouldn't be anywhere near a defendant in a court room. Is his argument his client is a intellectually disabled?
Roddy’s lawyer is smart … He basically saying Roddy why insert yourself with anything involving these 2 freaking thugs!! Roddy ole Boi you should have stayed on the damn porch!!
So is it me or is it inappropriate for the defendants lawyers to go on court tv tonight to discuss the case. Unless the jurors are sequestered, there should absolutely no lawyer to get on tv and with their magician word skills, plead their case. I find it totally low class, desperation, and disgusting. I’m surprised at the producers of the show to push the envelope this far.
Of COURSE the jurors are sequestered. They just heard closing arguments, and there's no gag order in place by the Judge, the Attorney has every right, as stupid as it might be, to make whatever public statements he wants, especially when the trial is being broadcast all over the world already. (I'm just sayin' ✌ )
“Roddie Bryan had his own firearm because he puts his cell phone down on the floorboard of his vehicle and you can hear him chamber a round in his gun. Roddie was ready to shoot Ahmaud to.
I think it`s the present nation situation what led to this very hard punishment to Roddie. Jurors sure didn`t feel free to express what they really thought. if this would`ve happened 10 years ago verdict would`ve been different.

He actually said it was “Divine Providence” or God who was guiding Bryan to get involved. That is an insane thing for Lawyer to say.
Its clear to me a souvenir for all his budys can watch over and over!
These hillbillies have some nerve justifying this murder.
unbelievable FN hiibillies
Roddies lawyer indirectly telling the jury that his client is GUILTY 😂 The defendants really needed some hot shot lawyers, a state defender could have done a better job than these jokers!
This guy's own lawyer got up there and roasted him for like 70 minutes.
Yes he should've not showed the video and he definitely should've not mention Bryan's hitting the man with his truck
I play this just to laugh at him getting roasted. He telling the jury, HAY. ... MY CLIENT IS A DUMBASS. That means everything he say can't be used because he is a MORON!! 😂😂
IF NOT FOR THEIR ACTIONS, AHMAUD WOULD BE ALIVE TODAY, AHMAUD DID NOT CHASE HIMSELF.
Roddie was only armed with his cell phone..🙄 AND HIS TRUCK.
We will never know if he had a gun because the ignorant cops never checked him or the truck !!
Roddie Bryan should've called the police when he saw the Mcmichaels had guns. Yet he chose to join the chase then Ahmaud was murdered he said he didn't know if it was right to chase him hit him with his truck then attempted to run him over again to the point Ahmaud had to run in a ditch
Exactly 💯
He didn't know they had guns
Wrong narrative. Bryan never saw a gun until the last seconds when Travis got out of the truck. Arbery didn't know the McMichaels had guns until then either. Bryan didn't try to run him over but rather, he tried to block him to help those two former police officers to stop him.
@@crand20033their not former police officers🤣😭 stop lying one of them couldn't even pass the test ! Second of all they had no business chasing that man in the first place just say your a racist and call it a day lying ass
He knows now@@Joseph-fw6xx
I have a little pity for this guy,,,, but an idiot is an idiot.... he should have mind his own business that day.. but then again, if he didn't video tape the incident, we wouldn't know what had happened...
😆 🤣 😂 he convicted his client better than the prosecution
Honestly in my opinion this closing argument was terrible. Maybe I’m just tired, but it seemed to be very tedious and he would have lost me if I was sitting on that jury. 🤷♀️
No you're not this closing of the defense is poor quality of a attorney
it reminded me of a tenth grade presentation....
And with the details of the evidence, he cooked his own goose thinking he would absolve himself in this crime.
I bet Roddy was armed with a gun as well. We will never know bc the cops let him leave and go home with his truck instead of placing it inside the crime scene tape.
'you bet'??? you mean just like travis 'bet' that arbery had stolen something from english's house?
Sorry He put himself in the situation he deserves everything he gets
He said he angled his truck he wished he had hit Ahmaud
He did hit him !!
It's scary that one quick decision and action you didn't plan ends your freedom for the rest of your life. Im not saying he is not guilty. Guy lost his life, family grieving forever. I think if he thought about what's happening he would do different. Not an excuse and it does look like he has some underlying racism. But i think most of us can make stupid mistakes without being aware how wrong we are. Im not talking about just racism motivated ones but any other bais assumptions. Bottom line he has lots of time to think how stupid he was. Tragedy all around, for the Amad and family the most
He should have stayed home.
I feel terrible for the family and the victim and also feel bad for William 'Roddie' Bryan, he does not come across as evil, racist, ill intentioned or a criminal. He is just too stupid for his own good. What seemed like a good idea to help his neighbors ended up causing a man his life and destroying his own. His second mistake was to get an even stupider lawyer. Had he had a good lawyer or just keep his mouth shut. He would have gotten a much lesser sentence. Glad those other 2 got what they disserve.
How many times did this Lawyer call his client stupid?
Alot horrible attorney
Bryan did chase and try to stop Arbery but he was only trying to help the two former cops to catch a suspected thief. Citizens help cops to catch dirt-bags criminals like Arbery every day.
Lol, worst attorney on earth
That could well be their stagedy. Because thats why at trial Roddie Bryan acted stupid, suddenly wearing glasses, sucking in his lips, trying to look like s stupid stooge who doesnt even really understand why he is in court.
Totally different from the communicative and bragging, smug Bryan at the crime scene.
How dumb is that he's standing there proudly admitting his crime
He's already home
Lol
@Raisin Raisin , he'll officially get the deed in a few weeks.
@@cecemoore6121so much for his new house
@@Joe-ym6bwand his new fiance, new truck, his remodeled front porch, damn this dude lost it all😂
Normally I don't like crapping on lawyers, but I do think that this lawyer is poor, not because of his argument but because he should have thought a plea. I think the State would have been receptive towards him.
oops
they inadvertently showed a clip of Ahmaud laying dead on the street
That was awkward for the defense
The road to Hell is paved w good intentioms. Ahmaud would be alive today if it weren't for Roddy Bryan.
Ahmaud would be alive today if he hadn't attacked Travis. All he had to do was stop and he would have been detained for the cops and he would have been left alive but in jail for misdemeanor prowling while on felony probation. You or I would have stopped but crazy Arbery didn't act normal in the situation where a man had a gun in his hand.
Roddy is dam fool
@@crand20033 Just stop clown.
@@crand20033flight didn’t work so he attempted to fight for his life. Who wouldn’t in this situation ?
Yeah! Send him home! His new prison home!
Good one.
"Roddie knows most of the English language". What the?!
No he doesn't he's an idiot
That’s what I thought lol essentially calling his hillbilly client a dumby,
So he thinks
I hear people keep saying that the click from inside the truck was his seatbelt...... why you taking your seatbelt off to make a turn..... doesn't make any sense.. he had a gun
Roddy lawyer is definitely throwing the McMichaels under the bus for sure call them crazy people and murderers lol 😂
He is not very bright, serve him right. Don't take the law in your own hands, rid yourself of racism and learn to love everyone!!
Please watch the police cam of roddie the day of the murder. Travis and daddy too...
Listen carefully during the video average guy Roddie was cocking the hammer on his gun. So he either hid his gun or the cops didn't even bother searching his vehicle during the day of the shooting.
Roddie is Racist and got caught , It's called KARMA
I thought I was the only one who heard and picked that up.
He didn't have a gun, he was undoing his seat belt.
None of the trucks were searched that day. Neither were the 3 defendants.
@@jwritezz The click was from his seat belt. Bryan had no idea the McMichaels would find themselves in a position where they had to defend themselves. The McMichaels had no intention of killing Arbery, they were only concerned he might have a gun so they brought theirs with them. When Travis was attacked he was forced to shoot Arbery to prevent him from stealing his gun and killing him. Our justice system didn't work (as usual) in this case.
He filmed how he helped commit murder
Watched this from London, I am absolutely faberglasted that not one of the 3 murderers showed any remorse nor asked Mr.Aubrey's Mom for forgiveness!!!! If that was me I would have been begging for mercy from the court and from the Mom, even if I didn't mean it!!!! It's hard to believe that some Whites hate their fellow Americans Black people so much, that they would rather die than apologize to a Black person. Very sad
Racist don’t have any sympathy towards their targets. That’s the definition of a racist person.
And that’s exactly how it is. Did you see any of them go close to the deceased or show any concern as he laid dying ? None has even apologized for loss.
As Roddy Bryan was so stupid not to mind his business so also is his lawyer in this case who is all over exposing himself and his client, a good lawyer would have from the beginning separated from the mc Michael defence and throwing them under the bus,then more sympathy would have be shown to him because of his stupidity.
This buffoon of a trial attorney is delivering what has to be among the worst closing arguments in human history. He must think the jury is stupid:
▪︎ His attempts at self deprecating statements are transparently manipulative.
▪︎ He purposely finds the most number of words to say the simplest things.
▪︎ His description of his client is almost entirely irrelevant.
▪︎. His "Let me take you back in time..." pitch and related quips are entirely irrelevant, annoying and wasteful if the jury's time.
▪︎ His "we lawyers have been taught never to say this...what we say is not evidence..." is a restatement of what the judge has said innumerable times and surely doesn't trick the jury into thinking he's particularly honest - to the contrary, it comes across as transparently disingenuous.
▪︎. His close is replete of instances where he stands on ceremony over meaningless details as if they are critical pieces of evidence demonstrating his client's innocence - for example, he says, "If you watch carefully, you see Mr. Brian pulls out from his driveway to the left, then backs up and straightens out his truck and pulls to the right, when the evidence actually shows Mr. Brian pulled straight out...." Wha...huh? So what?
▪︎ His "Awe shucks..." lawyer shtick isn't fooling anyone. He's a terrible attorney, totally out classed by the polish, persuasiveness and organization of the prosecution.
I think he's smarter then u think
@@Joe-ym6bw OK, what makes you think he's smarter than I think?
@@Joe-ym6bwdoubt it. They will all 3 leave the DOC in a pine box. How good of a job did he really do ?
He saw daddy standing up in the truck with a gun
And they claim good ole Roddie didn’t know they were pursuing with gun ….
I wonder if Mr. English finished his home or did he say screw that house tha people in this community are gun crazy nuts.
💖💖2021💖💖
i suspect he abandoned/sold that project..
This lawyer is trying say that this guy in the seat has a gun and Brybery is going to open the of truck BS this guy is not truthful
They sent his ass to prison
For ever
Roddie had his own gun.There is no way these punks would chase a grown ass man without a gun.Everybody,except Ahmaud, in that neighborhood had a gun.
Say goodbye to your new house Roddie. Should have stayed on your porch and minded your own business. Could have spent the time with your fiancee sitting on the porch on a beautiful sunny day. Off to jail you go!
A racist defendant with a racist lawyer.
Not racist but incompetent
@@luckynhlanhlatshabalala2475 really what about when he talked about how many black pastors should we have in the courtroom or something like that🤬🤬
RB made me look at the little quiet man , the nice man at my Ace hardware who fixes small things like RB did, and wonder if he wasn't just sitting there hating on us all.
Made me wonder if he was the kinda guy who would use his truck to attempt to run down a person because of his hateful heart.
RB is exactly where he belongs, in prison for life.
Bryan should go to prison for stupidity I'll bet every day he's in prison he says why did I get involved with these two crazy guy's
The jury should have had good look look at the video how many murders get to have a video of the whole crime not many
Talk about a lawyer that sucks
This lawyer pretty much helped to convict his own client. What a fool! Irrelevant ? He is chasing him down and helping to pin him down and forced the man off the road and for what reason? Ahmaud hasnt broke any laws. His laywer must be working for the prosecution, on those basis alone Roddie Bryan may have grounds for a new trial.
But he won’t have another trial.
He was not to far away as Bryan blocked Arberys in right near where he was shot so he was there and he knows the other two for sure
Exactly. The Dad (Greg McMichael) referred to him as an ally.
His problem was trusting the super racist McMichael father and son duo. Trapping and assaulting a lone man with three people,two trucks and two guns should have given the three people pause for concern. They still think k they did nothing wrong but Ms.Dunikoski unraveled that defense quite handily.
This didn't have to happen if these guys minded their own business. What were they thinking?
Aberyy should have also mind his own business and stay out or ppls houses for the 4th time
@@froggy7495 In the pitch darkness of night.
The McMichaels were two former cops. Do your research about their history.
@@froggy7495guess whose going to rot in prison for the rest of their lives hahahaha ;)
@@froggy7495he wasn’t alone, many entered the open, unsecured structure. Only Arbery was murdered.
I wouldn't be surprised if they based William H. Macy's character from Fargo off of Gough lol.
Wow an interview video with clear audio I can’t believe it
No justice, no peace. ✊🏿
Know justice know peace
Anyone with a pea brain in Roddy situation would have plead guilty, got 10 years, and out in 7 years. Now he has 10 years x 3.
Yes but did they offer him a deal I don't think so
it is, legally speaking, irrelevant that bryan 'acted in good faith' regarding his cooperation.
however, the fact that he was unaware that guns were involved is highly relevant.
i cannot view him as guilty of murder but perhaps guilty of false imprisonment and maybe (aggravated or otherwise) assault.
No Bryan should go to prison for just plain stupidity he should've never got involved
Party to the crime…
He might have had a gun himself but the ignorant cops never checked him or his truck
Somebody is auditioning to star in the reboot of Matlock 2022.
Bryant is thinking why did I record anything because it got me charged too
I admit to feeling sorry for Roddy Bryan. He's the only one of the defendants who has ever seemed regretful to me. Unlike the other two, his reason for participating seems more likely stupidity than hate.
Still, a man was murdered. And Ms. Dunikoski is right to say that if Roddy had stayed out of it, Arbery would still be alive. He had to go to prison for that, but I am sorry that his sentence is equal to the others, whose behavior was far worse.
Aw poor Roddie such i nice guy tryed to run poor boy into dich he should have stayed in if did'nt want involved with the scum bags
Yeah
The three of them are friends
WOW I have never seen a Lawer sooooo Sick and Pathetic... They ALL going to Jail and its just much his Fault as it was theirs...
Good Faith 🤣🤣🤣🤣 bye boy.
With him defending they don't really need a prosecutor.
One of the best Judges ever ❤️❤️❤️
Basically, Roddy tried to wipe his foolhardy fingerprints off the gun.
Roddy got inducted into the good old boys club. His involvement puts him guilty
He should have stayed on his porch
I don't think Roddie writing notes was a good look
Sickening that he continues to call the video famous in sarcasm. A man was killed and they immediately turned and walked away. Not one person showed concern about Ahmaud being injured on the ground.
There was more footage to this video...... because when he ran him into the ditch I'm quite sure he had his camera on..... all that was delete it and he edited that video also
Looking back at this they have a Habeas case. This lawyer shouldn't be anywhere near a defendant in a court room. Is his argument his client is a intellectually disabled?
lol
Roddy’s lawyer is smart …
He basically saying Roddy why insert yourself with anything involving these 2 freaking thugs!!
Roddy ole Boi you should have stayed on the damn porch!!
When keeping it real goes wrong. Smh.
So is it me or is it inappropriate for the defendants lawyers to go on court tv tonight to discuss the case. Unless the jurors are sequestered, there should absolutely no lawyer to get on tv and with their magician word skills, plead their case. I find it totally low class, desperation, and disgusting. I’m surprised at the producers of the show to push the envelope this far.
Of COURSE the jurors are sequestered. They just heard closing arguments, and there's no gag order in place by the Judge, the Attorney has every right, as stupid as it might be, to make whatever public statements he wants, especially when the trial is being broadcast all over the world already.
(I'm just sayin' ✌ )
@@twstf8905 no they are not the judge them home and they are scheduled for 8:30AM
What is Roddy writing at the table? I guess he’s planning his appeal.
You can also see that Travis shot A before AA struck him
Wow I really hope i will never have neighbors with his type of " good faith". 🤮🤮
How tf you gon run out get in your truck and start helping someone chase and catch someone that you don't know what is going on??
He should get a new trial because this lawyer is unbelievable what is happening here
He killed a kid in good faith! DUH!!! Shows that Attorney Gough had little to work with..
Just cut the crap already..he ran him into the ditch talking about he tried to get into his truck that’s moving..Mr Aubrey was NOT Superman..
“Roddie Bryan had his own firearm because he puts his cell phone down on the floorboard of his vehicle and you can hear him chamber a round in his gun. Roddie was ready to shoot Ahmaud to.
I think it`s the present nation situation what led to this very hard punishment to Roddie. Jurors sure didn`t feel free to express what they really thought. if this would`ve happened 10 years ago verdict would`ve been different.
Guilty by association. This isn’t a new law. He played an active role.
Felony murder law
Brian should have stayed on his porch.
He put his faith and trust in being white.
They all wanted the police involved but never immediately call the police. Any other time to calling the police
LWOP ❤

RODDIE WANTED TO GET IN ON THE KILL.. RODDIE HAD A HANDGUN IN HIS TRUCK.
The lawyer is making him guilty his client said that he cut him off does lawyer could not have passed bar he helped cut the guy off he's involved he's going down because of his own phone worst lawyer I've seen
