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.
From what i've read, that third shot was the fatal one. First shot went through his palm. Second shot grazed his head, but that third shot went into his torso, and that's the one that killed him.

I think you have this backwards. I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen it in the video.
It is far more believable that two racist rednecks murdered a black man in cold blood then that this fellow rushes a man with a shotgun.
Without video, those guys would have a hard time proving they didn't just murder the guy, because *NOBODY* is going to believe he just attacked the guy holding the shotgun.
Nobody is going to believe that. The video proves that is what actually happened.
