Grand Jury Indicts All Three Men In The Murder Case Of Ahmaud Arbery
A Georgia grand jury has indicted all three men who were arrested in the murder of Ahmaud Arbery.
Cobb District Attorney Joyette M. Holmes announced the news in a press conference on Wednesday and said the decision didn’t take long.
“The presentation took an hour and a half and the true bill came back in 10 minutes.”
The grand jury voted to indict Gregory and Travis McMichael along with William Bryan for the felony murder and aggravated assault that resulted in Arbery death.
The indictment comes almost four months after Arbery was shot while on his daily jog.
They each face nine charges, including malice murder, four counts of felony murder, two counts of aggravated assault, false imprisonment and criminal contempt to commit a felony.
The family attorney Lee Merritt also shared the news on Instagram, as well as letting everyone know that Georgia lawmakers have finally passed a hate crime law.
