Ahmaud Arbery was 'under attack' when three white men saw him running in a small, coastal neighborhood and hopped in pickup trucks to pursue him, a prosecutor said Monday in the murder trial over his killing.
Defense attorney Kevin Gough, who represents Bryan, told jurors his client was guided by "divine providence" to capture video of Arbery on the street that day, saying Bryan acted as a well-meaning witness to the killing.
Kevin Gough, defense attorney for Bryan, motioned for a mistrial over the demonstration. The judge denied the motion.Attorney: Travis McMichael had 'reasonable and probable grounds of suspicion' Sheffield said McMichael knew a man had been seen on surveillance video at the construction site and that he'd briefly encountered a man there two weeks before Arbery’s death. Sheffield said Arbery trespassed in the house multiple times, as seen on video, and that there was "no evidence that Ahmaud Arbery ever jogged or exercised in Satilla Shores."
Arbery did not try to defuse the situation by talking to McMichael or by running through a yard, away from the men pursing him on the street, Sheffield said. After a five-minute chase, as Arbery ran toward him, McMichaelMcMichael was "totally freaked out" after the shooting, Sheffield said. "If this was a case about wanting to murder a Black jogger, if this was really a case about that, Travis would not have reacted the way he reacted," Sheffield said.
"They made their decision to attack Ahmaud Arbery in their driveways because he was a Black man running down the street," Dunikoski said. She added: "This was an attack on Ahmaud Arbery." While Arbery was inside the site the day he was killed, the three men had "no immediate knowledge" of that and determined Arbery committed a crime because he was running, Dunikoski said. She said the men later claimed they were making a citizen's arrest to "justify their actions."
