Ok, that was chuckle-worthy. I hear that officials are flying Jussie Smollet in to see if he can identify those two men as being the same guys who tried to hang him recently.

It was McMichaels, but your post reminded me of McMillans wife. She was hot back then, through a teenagers eyes. I don’t know for certain if they are guilty or innocent. But I’m pretty satisfied that:
1) Arbery was no innocent jogger;
2) That the McMillans did not go after the guy JUST because he was black; and
3) The McMillans did not set out to shoot the guy.
All who believe anything like those assertions have fallen for the same old race baiting narrative that always gets thrown out.
Everything else will get decided by a jury. I personally believe that there are enough facts to support the thoughts set out by the second D.A. to recuse himself in his letter to the third. It isn’t a slam dunk either way but the third DA had intended to send it to a grand jury and let them decide whether to move forward or not. That is entirely consistent with why I see in this case. But I really deplore the way it has been handled since the video was released.

As a devils-advocate defense lawyer, just wanted to know where the victim has been living since he graduated from high school.

As a devils-advocate lowyer, has the victim ever been caught for theft in the past?

Why did the victim jog so far away from home?

The appointment of a black Female prosecutor can be viewed in 2 different ways.
She won’t be as lenient(the media’s take).....or
Someone to blame for the acquittal, with minimum burning, hopefully.

Well, thank you for that, LV. 60 years, just hit middle age. Actually, my legal experience is limited to a few business law classes. Continual self improvement and all that. My second son is currently a full blown tax and estate lawyer. Liberty University, Lynchburg. Passed both Iowa and Illinois bars, first try. He does court appointed cases, on the side. That son actually came in handy 7 out of 8 years of the Obama administration, when Obama and the Lerner IRS challenged my tax returns. Not one red cent more paid. I am at the point of happily paying $10 to prevent paying the IRS another dollar. Many have said I am bitter. MW, happy bithday.

At one point, before the cameras were installed, $2,500 worth of fishing tackle was stolen, obviously it was probably him.
Best post of the thread, "obviously it was probably him". LOL-- "obviously--probably"

Why did the victim jog so far away from home? A relevant question. Was he exercising or casing?
