Liars. They were not scared they purposely engaged with him so they could murder him. In fact everything they did was to set up a defense for the murder of this man. They began this defense the moment they saw this man running in their neighborhood the first time. Hence the 911 call of their gun stolen from their unlocked car. Their calls about a suspicious black man in the area. Their neighborhood watch meetings about the jogger etc... and their 911 calls about burglary at the property when they knew he was just a jogger

To everyone claiming it was self defense and that he went for the gun or whatever, as a private citizen you cannot restrict or stop another free man's travel for any reason whatsoever except to perform a Citizen's arrest. However, you must have personally witnessed an actual crime, you can't just try to citizen arrest someone who's "Suspicious." Before you say something like "He was trespassing and that's a crime," No he wasn't. You have to be told that you are trespassing and be given the opportunity to leave before you can be deemed as trespassing. The moment they blocked him from his freedom of movement without witnessing an actual crime, it became false imprisonment and at that point, the victim had every right to defend himself from his captors. Self defense is a two way street.

I just had to look up everything I could on this. I've watched the story unfold, but I wanted to know about this officer. He was the first on scene. Now, I'll try not to be too harsh on Mr. Minshew, but my first concern was that he is a former police officer at this time, and I wondered if it were due to possible pressure from his department. The answer to that is no. I was concerned then that possibly the trauma of this trial and events forced him out. I think not. Here's why. I've been three times caught up in events that forced me to try and save someone's life. In particular one time I had a 'last gasping' victim spit up and throw up in my mouth. I kid you not on that, and I'm sorry to remember it so clearly today. But the thing is you always tend to the victim first. Always. In battle you do the same thing. Most times you hope it's a medic who is nearby, often it's your buddy. Regardless, you lend aide.The fact that Mr. Minshew claimed that Ahmaud was still breathing, even if he says last gasps, means he did not roll him over, did not clear his airways, did not try to administer any aide, and that was for what reason? I don't care what he was worried about. The guys I know that have done that did it when there was gunfire going off, and explosions around you. I don't expect every police officer today to know of these things, but I do expect all of them to recognize they are definitely full time policemen, and sometimes part-time medics. He should have tended to Mr. Arbery first. I find his explanation wanting at best, and unforgivable at worst. I'm glad he has a different job now. I hate being that harsh on the young man, and he has a full life ahead of him I hope. But Mr. Arbery does not. Tend to the wounded first, always. Mr. Minshew did not kill Mr. Arbery, but our way of thinking may have. Which includes the thinking of these defendants.
