An attorney representing the homeowner of a construction site involved in the Ahmaud Arbery case issued a statement condemning the actions taken by Gregory and Travis McMichael.

A brief surveillance clip appears to show a man that looks like Arbery inside the home minutes before he was killed on Feb. 23. A neighbor called 911 and reported someone in the home that afternoon; the home was under construction and not locked.

Minutes later, responding officers found Arbery in the middle of the road, shot to death by Travis McMichael. Another video captured the shooting. The public release of that video last week sparked nationwide attention and calls for immediate arrests.

The McMichaels told responding officers that they chased Arbery because they thought he was responsible for recent break-ins in the neighborhood. However, the only theft reported to police involved a gun stolen from Travis McMichael’s unlocked truck, according to reports provided to WTOC by the Glynn County Police Department.

Crime of the century no.

Crime that can get you in deep trouble, yes.

You go through their construction area when they are not there with out their knowledge or permission and anything turns up missing it will be blamed on you.

Don't know why it seems the concept of "private property stay off" seems to elude some people.

Key point. According to the Attorney, the homeowners don’t even know the McMichaels. Therefore, they (the McMichaels) have no idea who is and who is not authorized to be on the property.

Keyer point. Whether the McMichaels did, or did not, know as fact whether Arbery was authorized on the property, Arbery's impression of Jesse Owens when leaving the property may have justified their reasonable and probable suspicion that he was not so authorized.

The Georgia law appears written to permit someone to act upon a suspicion.
