Ahmaud Arbery death trial | GBI ballistics expert testimony continues

The trial in the killing of Ahmaud Arbery continued into its seventh day on Monday, Nov. 15, 2021.
Arbery was shot and killed on Feb. 23, 2020. Cellphone video leaked to the public shows two armed white men in a truck approaching the 25-year-old Black man as he runs down the road. One of the men, later identified as Travis McMichael, and Arbery struggle over McMichael's shotgun before Arbery is shot and collapses.
Travis McMichael, his father Gregory McMichael and William "Roddy" Bryan, who recorded the video, are all charged with murder in Arbery's death.

I’m still amazed at how when the cop that was on scene heard the gun shots and then came around the corner and seen a guy with a gun and another guy laying dead and never once pulled his weapon and put the guy with the guns in cuffs. They pulled up watched him walk 15 feet into a yard and put the gun down and then asked him if he was ok and offered him water and medical attention and then sat there and let him tell the story all while never even thinking about putting him in cuffs 🤦‍♂️. I’m surprised they didn’t break out the ice chest full of beers and talk football while they were at it. All of the officers should be fired.

[@Sports-Jorge]

If you put someone in cuffs you have to read them their rights and they might shut up. If you make sure they’re not a threat, be “friendly” and let them tell their “story” anything they say can be used against them. But yes, I understand the double standard you are saying exists.

[@andersmessina9745]

@@Sports-Jorge this is not true, you can be detained in cuffs without being arrested. If a cop has probable cause that a crime has been committed, like witnessing a guy holding a shotgun and another guy dead on the ground, they can detain you in handcuffs to receive information. It is inly until you are formally arrested that your rights are read and what not.

[@Sports-Jorge]

@@andersmessina9745 Please read current legal precedent. Being in police custody and being questioned requires a Miranda warning. If you are not free to leave and police question you, that can absolutely be thrown out.

[@SteadySteppin]

Point is, he shot Aubrey with the round in chamber. Once backed up, pumped the shot gun twice, to shoot 2 more slugs which was intended to finish and murder a man already struggling to breathe and survive. The dead don’t tell. He could make up his own story afterwards.

[@archangelvvv]

100% CORRECT! The first point blank blast to the chest was a mortal wound that blew a gaping hole in the center of Aubrey's chest, but that wasn't good enough for the Travis because he wanted to finish him off just like you said, so he reloaded twice with two additional point blank blasts! There are those who would attempt to contend with this FACT and say that the reason the shotgun got discharged two additional times is because Aubrey was pulling on the shotgun which caused it to discharge! Oh, really! How on earth could that happen when it's required to manually pump the shotgun after each discharge pulling the trigger each time! A physical struggle for control of a shotgun can in no way cause it to spontaneously discharge! It must be manually pumped and the trigger pulled each time!

Hopefully this post gets supporters of the Mcmichaels and William Roddie Bryan to think logically. I have a hard time understanding why would someone chase someone if they believe that person has a gun? That doesn't pass the smell test. Regardless if I have a gun or not, if I even think that someone else has a gun, I'm keeping my distance to say the least. Think about that for a moment. Exactly what good did they think could come of chasing someone who supposedly had a gun? Not even the police goes directly up to someone they think has a gun, they keep their distance. That goes to show that they didn't really think that he had a gun or they would have kept their distance. And if they didn't really think that he had a gun, what need is there to approach him with guns?

[@Dobviews]

@@valleyforge1264 It is illegal to give chase "as a private citizen". *Period* It is illegal to create a flight or fight response by chasing someone "illegally" from a residence. As per Georgia Law even if a thief steals a garden gnome out of your/neighbors yard and starts running away while carrying said stolen gnome down the street... it is still illegal for a private citizen to chase a person down, create a flight or fight response which resulted in a thief defending themselves and getting shot in the process. You cannot chase someone down the street brandishing weapons. When Do Self-Defense Rights Not Apply? Stand Your Ground laws do not give a person the right to take the law into their own hands or otherwise leverage the use of force in an unlawful manner. Specifically, Georgia law states; A person is not justified in using force, if that person a) initially provokes the use of force against himself/herself with the intent to use such force as an excuse to inflict bodily harm upon the assailant; or b) is attempting to commit, is committing, or is fleeing after the commission or attempted commission of a felony (define arguable felony); or c) was the aggressor or was engaged in a combat by agreement, unless the person withdraws from the encounter and effectively communicates his/her intent to withdraw to the other person, and the other person still continues or threatens to continue the use of unlawful force. Brandishing a Weapon Think twice before displaying a firearm in a way that may be deemed threatening. There is a relatively fine line between utilizing a weapon for self-protection and brandishing a weapon. Brandishing a weapon is a crime (felony aggravated assault). In a March 3, 2020, article in the Atlanta Journal Constitution, Georgia State Senator Harold Jones is reported to have stated, “under current law prosecutors must prove murder is the intent of someone showing or pulling a gun before he or she can be found guilty of aggravated assault.”

I can't believe people can carry weapons like this and the government are OK with it.

There’s no problem having and carrying weapons. There is a problem with stupid, angry people. The gun didn’t kill him. The man did.

Tyed, your so right we have to get justice for this young man,

[@beachbum1523]

I don't even know if the testimony and the evidence, no matter how compelling they are, will be enough to get all 12 jurors to return a guilty verdict. The selection process of the jury's selection rings of Mississippi in 1955.

[@turbo-bike7999]

I can’t agree more!!! After all, these three recorded themselves shooting him yet here we are. I can’t listen to this description of the gun shots. The complete video is on KZbin and it’s absolutely disgusting and they keep playing it in front of the kids family. That kid took three shotgun blasts to his upper torso fighting for his life, after the third shot he took three steps as though he was going to finish jogging and collapsed. They probably say he didn’t die from the shotgun blast……he died from a sudden drop in blood pressure.

[@sekou777]

@@turbo-bike7999 I mean if the jury doesnt come back with a guilty verdict they would be just as bad as the killers. Whether it be because of racial reasons or not. Any dummy can see this was murder.

Murder trial

[@PrintProfessor]

I’m surprised that they got any cartridge cases at all. Based on their “investigation” I would have thought the responding officers would have let McMichael police his shells, and tidy up the gun a bit.

[@RStarLeeKong]

Anybody who watches this trial or cases/trials similar to this would be telling themselves, "I ain't got no time trying to be a hero". Let the cops do their job. Note to self: See suspicious people, "CALL THE COPS". I have called the cops for a few shady situation before, but I'm not that stupid trying to be a hero.

A black underdressed jogger is not suspicious. People stopping him with a pump shotgun and a .357 ARE suspicious.

Beware of fake forensics and prosecutors creating sensationalism for publicity. They lock up innocent people of color too. The McMichaels chased the correct person verified by the video. No mistake in identity.

Why are defense lawyers allowed to try to confuse the jury by making nonsensical, irrational assertions or "what if" silly questions. The justice department and congress need to fix this problem.

The defense are absolute clowns. The fucking dude thought the drone footage of the crime scene was a live feed piloted by the prosecution. It's hysterical.

[@coryelwood6540]

The defense has a burden to prove innocence, and unfortunately a lot of Nonsensical Jargon is used on both sides to try and trip up witnesses to damage credibility. I am hoping a swift and fast guilty verdict will be rendered though.
