All 3 Men Involved In The Killing Of Ahmaud Arbery Have Been Found Guilty

Jury Finds All 3 Men, William ‘Roddie’ Bryan, Gregory & Travis McMichael Guilty For The Murder Of Ahmaud Arbery

A decision has been reached in the trial of Travis and Gregory McMichael, finding them both guilty on Wednesday of murdering Ahmaud Arbery.

A Georgia jury returned the guilty verdict on Wednesday afternoon following deliberations.

Travis McMichael, who pulled the trigger on Arbery, was found guilty on all nine charges of chasing and killing 25-year-old Ahmaud Arbery in a Georgia neighborhood last year. Arbery’s killing led to international outrage and protests supporting the Black Lives Matter movement.

Travis’ father, Gregory McMichael, who drove the truck used to chase Arbery, was found guilty on eight charges on Wednesday.

William “Roddie” Bryan Jr., who followed the McMichaels in a different car, was found guilty of felony murder and five other counts.

The jury had asked to review several pieces of evidence during deliberations, including a video of the fatal shooting, a copy of the 911 call placed by Gregory McMichael, and more.

Their convictions carry a minimum sentence of life in prison. The upcoming sentencing trial will determine if the McMichael father and son duo will ever be eligible for parole.

Considering the result of Kyle Rittenhouse’s trial last week, many are celebrating the guilty conviction of Travis and Gregory McMichael. Travis previously testified that Arbery was simply “just running” before the shooting. Arbery allegedly did not make any threats towards the McMichaels, and he did not have a weapon.
