CBSN
What does Colonel Harland Sanders, the founder of the fast-food chain Kentucky Fried Chicken, have to do with the Ahmaud Arbery murder trial? For that you'd have to ask defense attorney Kevin Gough.
This week a jury convicted three White men, Travis McMichael, Gregory McMichael and Gough's client, William "Roddie" Bryan, of murder after they chased and killed Arbery, a Black man who was out for a jog.
During the trial in Brunswick, Georgia., Gough complained to Judge Timothy Walmsley after the Rev. Al Sharpton sat in the courtroom in support of the Arbery family.
