The father was a cop who had interrogated the perp on a prior charge. They knew each other.

Which proves this wasn't some random coincidence. It was a vendetta.

I know a contractor, who pulled this more than once and tried to blame some Mexican workers.

I dislike this contractor. I wish the insurance company or the police would have caught him.

As much as I would love for him to get caught doing this, he's married to the daughter of family friends, so there's not much I would do anyway.

Too bad he’s not in jail for insurance fraud and more.

Dancing around the obvious, are we?
Dude grabbed a guy’s shotgun. Self defence. Next life take a logic course and skip the SJW thing.

And you can twist it anyway you want but if someone is threatening you with a gun and you grab for it that's self defense, too. The shooters initiated the incident. It's hard to claim self defense under those circumstances.

Correct. As in you got away with it the last time. You won’t do it again. A cop’s promise.

So mcmichaels should’ve let the felon attack him and take his gun?
You’re saying it’s not self defense. So he shouldn’t have fought back?

RE; ‘Avid jogger’...convince me of that.

We do know that he’s previously been seen avidly jogging thru a high school parking lot chased by police after a .38 fell out of his pants. Wonder how the police got injured?

RE It could be argued that the “confrontation “started when Arbery was caught trespassing.

And ended when he committed assault and battery against the Younger McMichael.

seriously?
Is there any statute or law that supports this??

The subject was “confrontation”. Mr. Rogers and I were debating when it started and when it ended.

Your confusion about statues or laws concerning the subject of this confrontation confuses me.

Rethink and rephrase you question if you like.

.I have a question or two.

You can hear on the 911 call right before the shots, Greg mcmichael yell “stop, drop that!”

Any ideas what he was referring to?

And...you can also hear on the call...sirens in the background, this is as AA Was running away then when sirens start is about the time he changes course to attack.

Is that likely something that could be used by defense to prove that he was aware cops would be there any minute and so no need for such risky self defense...and that he obviously was trying to avoid going back to jail.

I have to admit that I did not listen to the 911 call that closely. So the answer is no, I don’t know what Mr. McMichael was referring to.

The issue is whether the suspect charged at the guy with the shotgun because he was acting in self-defense, or whether he charged the guy with a shotgun because he didn’t want to get caught and go to jail. The fact that he could hear sirens coming suggests that he knew we was busted

The defendants are charged with first-degree murder. There are two types of first-degree murder. The first type is premeditated murder. That obviously did not happen in this case, because if the defendants intent was to kill the suspect, they would’ve shot him immediately. The second type of first-degree murder is called felony murder. Under the felony-murder doctrine, if two or more individuals conspire to commit a felony, and a death occurs in the commission of that felony, they are guilty of first-degree murder, even if neither one intended to kill anybody. In this case, the defendants are charged with aggravated assault, which is a felony under Georgia law. In order to assault someone, the victim has to be placed in fear. The suspect in this case is dead and therefore cannot testify as to whether he was placed in fear. Basically, the prosecutor would have to prove that the suspect was a victim of an assault, that he was placed in fear by the McMichaels. The defense will argue he was not placed in fear, but rather attacked the guy with a shotgun because he was trying to escape and not go to jail.

I think the fact he “jogged” directly towards the truck is evidence under he wasn’t scared at all. Why didn’t he turn around and run the other way? Because I car was following him?
Nah... because that was the direction the cops were. And he was at a dead end.

Me thinks there is other evidence out there that hasn’t been released that will shed more light on his activities. Did he have a car? Did he have an accomplice? Did he look into cars? We shall see.

Re: “confrontation”

thanks for replying
my apologies, i think i just took it “out of context”
and mistook it for a different conversation where some lawyering was going on,
I’ll try wearing my glasses more often.
have a great weekend!
