In the police report McMichael says he has surveillance video Arbery committing a burglary. Yet DA Barnhill makes no mention of any video in his letter defending the McMichaels, nor has anyone else publicly.

The account McMichael gave police in the report is widely at odds with what the video from the chase reveals. Travis McMichael didn’t get out of the car during an exchange with Arbery, he was outside the car, armed with the shotgun, waiting for Arbery to pass by.

Beyond this, the alleged rationale for pursuing Arbery was suspicion of his involvement in a rash of neighborhood break-ins. But as local outlets have reported there were no home burglaries reported in the community in 2020.

There are all kinds of contradictions and outstanding questions regarding this situation that should guide how media and investigators approach the case of
#AhmaudArbery’s death.Show this thread -
(I mention McMichael’s reference to surveillance video and its absence from subsequent accounts because if he’s lying about that every thing else he says about the reasoning for following Arbery falls apart.)

I think in the mind of these racists, the fact that Ahmaud tried to defend himself from his murderers shows that he somehow deserved to be shot. They're sick. Evil. Horrible.

I read the quote from the person who released it. He is a local defense attorney, but the way I read his quote he was doing it to support the shooters(?). Still not sure if I read it correctly.
