The video shows he attacked the man with the shotgun.
We do not know exactly what happened seconds before.
Arbery never stopped. The video shows him going from jogging to attacking.
Who filmed it?
The drivers had already tried to cut off the ‘jogger’. The ‘jogger’ was being followed from behind and was in pursuit from the front. They said in statements they wanted to ‘talk to him’. There is no legal requirement for a person to stop and respond to someone who is following them. Sure, responding to the threat of someone who is armed from the outside might be perceived as the aggressor; the statements from the pursuers state they initiated the encounter.
What I do know is that the father is a former cop and is retired from the prosecutor’s office. On that basis alone I’m going to assume he’s guilty of murder.
“The guy, Arbery, was fighting for the shotgun when he was shot and killed. “
Fighting for his life?
He should never have been confronted by that shotgun.
He was jogging in the neighborhood.
He was trying to keep the asshole from shooting him, after the first shot was made.
The headline is false. The guy, Arbery, was fighting for the shotgun when he was shot and killed.
The video shows he attacked the man with the shotgun.
