Closing arguments in trial for Ahmaud Arbery's killing focus on citizens' arrest law and claim of self-defense

Prosecutors and defense attorneys delivered closing arguments Monday in the trial of the three men charged with killing Ahmaud Arbery in Brunswick, Georgia, in February 2020. 

Travis McMichael, his father Gregory McMichael and their neighbor William "Roddie" Bryan have all been charged with murder and other counts for the death of Arbery, a 25-year-old Black man who was jogging in the neighborhood.

Over the course of nearly seven hours Monday, the jury heard first from the prosecution and then from lawyers representing each of the three defendants. The prosecution will return to deliver the rebuttal portion of their closing arguments when court reconvenes at 8:30 a.m. ET Tuesday.
