THis is the one that bothers me. The other two, I could see them guilty or not guilty, depending on whose story you believed.
But this guy, he jumped in a car to follow, and did nothing but film. The victim actually hit his truck, and he did nothing. When they finally stopped, he was backing out, he was nowhere near the shooting.
For him to be guilty, it seems to me, would lead to this:
A BLM rally decides to block the streets. One car is trying to get through, but the protesters surround the car, preventing them from leaving (false imprisonment, according to these charges).
The guy rolls down his window and shouts at them to move out of his way. They refuse, and shout back.
THen one protester walks up and stick a gun in his face. He grabs the gun, the fight, and the driver is shot and killed.
According to this jury/prosecution, EVERY PROTESTER IN THE STREET is now guilty of felony murder, and all should go to jail.
Do you remember a SINGLE CASE this past year where ANY person blocking a road was charged for ANY crime commited against any driver blocked by the protests?
The clincher is this - Bryan told officers he joined the pursuit and helped cut off Arbery's escape.
So he chose to be an active participant in the pack, as opposed to being a witness or videographer who happened to be in the right place at the right time.
This alone ought to tell a reasonable person this process was utter garbage.
