Jury Deliberates In Federal Hate Crimes Trial Over Arbery's Killing
Newsy
Prosecutors argued the men were motivated by race, while the defense deny Arbery's race was the reason for their act.
Jurors in Georgia have begun deliberations in the federal hate crimes trial of three white men convicted in state court of murdering Black jogger Ahmaud Arbery.
Both the defense and federal prosecutors made their final case to the jury today, and now it's up to jurors to decide whether father and son Greg and Travis McMichael and their neighbor William "Roddie" Bryan chose to chase and kill Ahmaud Arbery because he was Black.
The men were convicted of murder last year in a state trial and were recently sentenced to life in prison. Only Bryan was given the possibility of parole.
