    Just saw that an offer for a plea bargain was made by one of the defense lawyers yesterday but was rejected by the prosecution after they spoke to the Arbery family.

    I doubt he could even get into the country let alone to Kenosha.

    No wasting my life on this thread for nearly a year. These dudes not gonna get protection from the law imo. Very hard to determine all details without full video. Likely they felt threatened to be using a gun. Either way the dudes are idiots and so too the dead wanna be gang banger. Not much else to it. Very much a bunch of he said she said and bullshit.

    That's what I used to think. I can admit when I am wrong.

    Listening to some of the closing arguments in this case. Travis McMichael's attorney used a similar argument that the defense attorney for Rittenhouse did. Arbery was trying to grab his gun and is Arbery had gotten it then McMichaels feared that he would be shot back so he acted in self-defense.

    too bad they were the ones who were chasing and threatening Arbery so him grabbing their gun was self defense…these lawyers really got nothing

    The female defense attorney in the Arbery case is auditioning to be an ADA in Kenosha:

    "Turning Ahmaud Arbery into a victim after the choices that he made does not reflect the reality of what brought Ahmaud Arbery to Satilla Shores in his khaki shorts with no socks to cover his long, dirty toenails," Hogue told jurors."

    As a long-distance runner (jogger) I wear two pairs of socks on each foot so my toes and toenails don’t get f’d up. I get mentioning the “no socks” or style of shorts in questioning if he was really jogging, but mentioning that his toenails were “dirty”? Why?

    Edit: Two socks on each foot. Two pairs on each would be four...

    It's trying to hit home that he wasn't jogging. He was burglaring houses. The prosecution wasn't allowed to call him a jogger from what I remember.

    I think in this case it’s totally different…rittenhouse was intercepted by the violent attackers …this case in this thread needs to be a murder charge. Self defense boils down to who initiated the interception. Whoever is on the receiving end of the action of interception more than likely gets the self-defense. Knowing self-defense laws I knew right away Kyle was innocent however this one needs to be a murder charge

    As I said, that can be done by mentioning the lack of socks or maybe even the style of shoes/shorts. Mentioning that his toenails were “dirty” wasn’t necessary. Has nothing to with whether he was jogging or not. Seems more like a way to dehumanize him.

    He absolutely wasn't burglaring houses, had zero stolen good on him, wasn't witnessed burglaring houses. They aren't allowed to make a citizens arrest unless they see him committing the crime. They didn't.

    The defense claim that it could be self defense because he was trying to grab the gun from the defendant's hands is laughable. That was only after they pinned him in and showed they were a threat. He was fighting for his life.
