Neighbor says he’s ‘not proud’ of filming Ahmaud Arbery shooting
NY Post ^ | May 12, 2020 | 1:42pm | Jorge Fitz-Gibbon

The Georgia man who filmed the shooting death of unarmed black jogger Ahmaud Arbery says he’s “not proud” he did so — but he hopes it “helps in the end.”

William “Roddie” Bryan, whose cell phone footage of the Feb. 23 incident sparked national outrage, told Good Morning America he has “tons of regrets” over the incident.

“Yeah, I wish I hadn’t been there,” Bryan told the ABC-TV show Tuesday.

Scared, receiving death threats from Saint Joggers family and supporters.

Why would he receive death threats because of a video he took? Probably because maybe it doesn’t fit the narrative and needs to be silenced.

The truth is what I say it is, not actually what it is.

"....and or DOJ will put that question at the top of their list."

Yeah like they thoroughly investigated, and interviewed Agent Joe Pientka's involvement in the Flynn interview, and why it took him 3 weeks to write the 302 form, which is supposed to be submitted within 5 days, and where that original 302 is, and what part he played, if any, in Strzok and Page altering it.

Yeah it ended with his buddies in jail without bail. Kind of backfired on him.

It's too bad that people think they can just wander onto anybody's property at any time, and not expect to be confronted over it, especially in this day and age, with the amount of crime in this country.

The video I reviewed was from the house across the street from the home Arbery entered shows him going into the home, then coming out, but instead of his continuing down the street, he slips in between the side of the house he was just in, and another building, possibly a garage, and he is out of sight for approximately two minutes-two and a half minutes before he comes back in view from the right corner of the house, then takes off running down the street.

Without that video, the two dolts would have a much better chance of getting off due to no evidence against whatever story they would like to make up.

Now they are down to claiming self-defense due to the dead guy trying to take McMichael’s gun away. But what was the justification for the last shot as Arbury staggered away, apparently wounded?

Might still work, we’ll see.

I agree completely.

Armed man at left of screen, runner at right who suddenly cuts left in front of truck and rushes guy carrying gun, pushing him off to the left; looks like action appears offscreen but blast from gun is seen.

Looks like self-defense to me.

“looks like action appears offscreen but blast from gun is seen.”

There’s also a blast visible as Arbury staggers away, looking wounded. That’s the shot that put him down. That might be uh, a problem.

“...the US Department of Justice said it would weigh federal hate crime charges in the case, which could carry a death penalty.”

Are Holder and Obama back in charge? There is no hate crime law in Georgia. So they have thrown in a fishing line.

We are not privy yet to what happened prior to the shooting as below is further tape that may indicate a possible crime prior to the shooting by the deceased. But that is unclear right now as we did see two separate police cruiser go down the street, one at a high rate of speed prior to the shooting.

In the shooting sequence, it appeared the shooter was coming from the right side of the vehicle across the front which I can’t understand as the other person in the vehicle was in the bed. Doesn’t make sense unless he waited until the driver got out and climbed into the bed before he got out by the passenger door. If he was the driver, why slide across or get out and walk on the right side of the truck with a shotgun in hand? And why cross to the left side of the vehicle with that formidable a weapon when he could have stayed on the right side of the truck and accomplished whatever he was trying to do.

Also, when the shooter started across the front of the truck, the deceased rushed and engaged the shooter near the left bumper. Why’d he charge the shooter with a shotgun in his hands?

There appears to be a real lull in time from the time the truck stopped and the violence started. What happened there?

Lot of questions to be answered before there is what is needed to make a call. There is no question due to the video that the gun was discharged during a scuffle. Also that the deceased was rushing the shooter as fast as the shooter came at him. Against a shotgun? What was he trying to do?

So time and what actually happened at the crime scene needs evaluation.

Possible further tape:

“Did the shooters and he coordinate the chase?”

That’s one thing the police are investigating.

I don’t think he will be charged. The other two are so dumb it’s unbelievable. Dolt 2, in the pickup bed, took himself right out of the action by being stuck in a position where he was useless. Dolt 1 had a gun and allowed the dead guy to get too close. Thank goodness it was a shotgun so he didn’t kill a neighbor with a stray bullet.

Also Monday, the US Department of Justice said it would weigh federal hate crime charges in the case, which could carry the death penalty.

There's the hidden headline.

Yeah, but people “panic shoot” after the fact often.

Ask police why Amadou Diallo was shot at approx. 69 times by several police officers while standing in a doorway after several dozen solid hits.

Also poor trigger discipline likely.

I think a good attorney could defend that.

We also have no information on what the local DA or sheriff or other LEO reported at the time, do we? The official story, I mean?

I’m also reminded about St. Michael Brown who, begging for his life, hands held up high in a “please, don’t shoot me, Mr. Police Officer” posture was shot multiple times by the EVIL white debbil PO.

The SJO/leftist agenda will play up the preferred story no matter the evidence (in M. Brown’s case, that he was RUSHING the officer, there were WITNESSES to that fact, and his hand/s got in the way of the bullet/s).

I’m very glad for the video which shows what actually happened as opposed to what some people want to see.

There will be consequence to anyone involve ONLY BECAUSE a black man died.

How’s that for “white privilege”

******************************************************************
Compared to the speed of the deceased’s rush, the shooter was barely moving. At trial, experts will be going over this video frame by frame measuring each individual’s movement microsecond by microsecond. Those experts will be determining, to the microsecond, the times of each shotgun blast and, factoring in the relative speeds of light and of sound, exactly where the shotgun was at at the precise microsecond of eachdischarge.

Well he wanted to play in that happening...and now interviewed saying he doesn’t feel safe for threats he’s getting.

People need to be cautious, unlike this idiot, of getting involved in other peoples business. Cell phones are out and running 24/7.

I wouldn’t doubt the threats are from blacks AND whites.
