In The Verdict and the Aftermath, we present our coverage of the verdict in the trial of Alex Murdaugh, as well as the aftermath of the case.Before we begin this final episode of Season 8 of Jury Duty, we want to let you know, that we are suspending publication of this Jury Duty Podcast, as well as further publication on our flagship website, CrimeStory.com, to focus our energies on other endeavors that are only possible because of the work we've done here at Jury Duty and over at CrimeStory.com. One of those new endeavors is a podcast produced by our sister company, Pleasant Run Productions. “Shadow of Hope” explores the history of the People of Hope, a Catholic Covenant Community. At their peak in the 1980s, the People of Hope took over a parish in Berkeley Heights, New Jersey, clashed with local residents, and built the suburban equivalent of a compound.Over eight episodes, host Karen Ann Coburn tries to find out what led regular people – her neighbors, classmates, and friends – to commit their lives to this secretive group. In the process, she reveals the truth about life inside a Covenant Community and ponders the question, “What price are we willing to pay to belong to something bigger than ourselves?”Meanwhile, over nine seasons here at Jury Duty, we've covered the trials of Robert Durst, Kyle Rittenhouse, Travis and Gregory McMichael and William "Roddie" Bryan (convicted for the murder of Ahmaud Arbery), former Olympic equestrian Michael Barrisone, Harvey Weinstein, Danny Masterson, OJ Simpson, and Alex Murdaugh. Over the last four and a half years, this podcast series has generated nearly five million downloads.For a more detailed and thorough overview of the work we've accomplished both at Jury Duty and across the Crime Story Media Endeavors, head over to our Farewell Page at CrimeStory.com. Most importantly, we want you to know that we are so grateful to all of you for following us on this journey, and we hope you will stay tuned for what comes next. Hosted on Acast.

Three Georgia Men Charged with Federal Hate Crimes and Attempted Kidnapping in Connection with the Death of Ahmaud Arbery . Three Georgia men were indicted today by a federal grand jury in the Southern District of Georgia and charged with hate crimes and the attempted kidnapping of Ahmaud Arbery. The indictment also charges two of the men with separate counts of using firearms during that crime of violence. Travis McMichael, 35; Travis's father, Gregory McMichael, 65; and William “Roddie” Bryan, 51, were each charged with one count of interference with rights and with one count of attempted kidnapping. Travis and Gregory McMichael were also charged with one count each of using, carrying, and brandishing—and in Travis's case, discharging—a firearm during and in relation to a crime of violence. Counts One and Two of the indictment allege that the defendants used force and threats of force to intimidate and interfere with Arbery's right to use a public street because of his race. Specifically, Count One of the indictment alleges that as Arbery was running on a public street in the Satilla Shores neighborhood of Brunswick, Georgia, Travis and Gregory McMichael armed themselves with firearms, got into a truck, and chased Arbery through the public streets of the neighborhood while yelling at him, using their truck to cut off his route, and threatening him with firearms. Count One also alleges that the offense resulted in Arbery's death. Count Two alleges that William “Roddie” Bryan joined the chase and used his truck to cut off Arbery's route.  In addition to the hate-crime charges, Count Three alleges that all three defendants attempted to unlawfully seize and confine Arbery by chasing after him in their trucks in an attempt to restrain him, restrict his free movement, corral and detain him against his will, and prevent his escape. Counts Four and Five allege that during the course of the crime of violence charged in Count One, Travis used, carried, brandished, and discharged a Remington shotgun, and Gregory used, carried, and brandished a .357 Magnum revolver.  All three defendants have also been charged in a separate state proceeding with malice murder, felony murder, aggravated assault, it Attorney Tara Lyons of the Southern District of Georgia, and Deputy Chief Bobbi Bernstein and Special Mitigation --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/Teddy-G/support

Three white men,  convicted in a state court of the brutal murder of Ahmaud Arbery, a 25-year-old Black man they saw jogging through their suburban Brunswick, Ga., neighborhood on Feb. 23, 2020, are on trial in federal court. Federal statutes allow for separate/additional prosecutions for crimes allegedly committed in violation of human-rights laws.  Racial hatred motivated Arbury's attackers -- Gregory McMichael, 65, son Travis McMichael, 35, and neighbor William "Roddie" Bryan, 52 -- the prosecutor has charged. In her opening statement prosecutor Bobbi Bernstein laid out the premise of the federal case: Ahmaud Arbery, she told the court, would not have been murdered had he been white. Is the prosecutor playing "the race card" to sensationalize the case and play to Black sympathies? Is she unmasking the sheer brutality that lurks behind the illusion of well-ordered life? On Leid Stories today we look at how the murder of Ahmaud Arbery lays bare the false notion of "progress" in the South.

Episode 73 The murder of Ahmaud Arbery in February of 2020 sent shockwaves throughout the country and galvanized the cries of activist groups and race baiters alike. At the end of the confrontation, a black man was dead and three white men claimed self defense while attempting to conduct a citizen's arrest. This has brought the question of citizen's arrest into the spotlight. What is it, who can make it, and when? Where is the line between self-defense and citizen's arrest? Did Arbery have the right to defend himself? In this episode of the Removing Barriers podcast, we explore these questions and grapple with their implications as people living in a fallen world and the Savior Jesus Christ who has made the way to save us from them. Post script: At the time of the publishing of this podcast, both Travis and Gregory McMichael were sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole plus 20 years. William Bryan was sentenced to life in prison with the possibility of parole after 30 years.

Recently, two very significant verdicts came down in trials that captured national attention.First, Kyle Rittenhouse was charged with multiple counts of murder for killing two people (and seriously injuring a third) during the Kenosha, Wisconsin protests following the police shooting of Jacob Blake.  Rittenhouse, a 17 year old armed with an AR-15 assault rifle, was with a local "militia," until he got separated and ultimately ended up firing his gun into three separate people.Second, Travis McMichael, his father Gregory McMichael, and their neighbor William "Roddy" Bryan were put on trial for the murder of Ahmaud Arbery in Glynn County, Georgia.  The three men claimed that Arbery had been burglarizing a construction site in their neighborhood, and attempted to stop him.  The encounter ended up with three shotgun shots being fired, and Arbery dying in the middle of the road.Both Kyle Rittenhouse and Travis McMichael (the individual who actually shot Arbery) claimed self-defense.  In this episode, we examine the evidence in both of these cases through the lens of what the requirements are to argue self-defense in each particular state.  Paul provides his thoughts on why one claim was accepted by the jury, and one claim was not.If you enjoy the show, check out our website at insummation.com!  Thanks!

All the Lawyers Who Stood Between Ahmaud Arbery and Justice. The three notorious white men caught on video chasing and fatally attacking Ahmaud Arbery last February are now officially convicted murderers. But Gregory McMichael, his son Travis, and their neighbor William “Roddie” Bryan” are not the only villains in the gruesome case plagued by allegations of initial prosecutorial misconduct before arrests were made 70 days after the 25-year-old Black man's shooting death in Georgia. The prosecutors who won the case argued that Arbery was on a jog through Satilla Shores, a mostly white neighborhood in Brunswick, Georgia when the trio chased him down the street after wrongly suspecting him of burglary. Travis McMichael was caught on video footage—filmed by Bryan—firing the fatal shots. ​The defense for the three men argued that they were trying to perform a citizen's arrest on Arbery in connection with suspected break-ins in the area. After nine hours and two days of deliberation, a Glynn County jury on Wednesday found the three men guilty of felony murder in the Feb. 23, 2020 homicide death of Arbery. But Arbery's murder was almost never prosecuted. And when the case did make it to trial, defense attorneys stepped over themselves to engage in ugly arguments rife with racist innuendo. Last February, Johnson was the Brunswick District Attorney in the midst of a re-election campaign when Gregory McMichael, a former police officer and one-time investigator in her office, called her after his son shot Arbery to death in the street. Eventually, Johnson referred the case to Waycross District Attorney George E. Barnhill, recusing herself. But investigators now allege she meddled in the case before handing over the reins. On Sept. 2, after losing her re-election bid, Johnson was indicted on several charges—including obstructing police—after allegedly directing officers to not arrest the McMichaels after the incident. The indictment also states that Johnson showed “favor and affection” to Gregory McMichael and failed to treat Arbery's family “fairly and with dignity” when she recused herself from the investigation. Johnson has not yet entered a plea in her case, and her attorneys could not be reached for comment. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/Teddy-G/support

Rittenhouse…Not GuiltyThis past week, the Jury decided the outcome of the fatal shootings by then 17 year old Kyle Rittenhouse. Not Guilty. A verdict that elated some but majorly disappointed others. Two men lost their lives and a third forever altered at the hands of Rittenhouse due to his careless actions of possessing a military style gun and choosing to go to the protest with that very weapon. Every action has a reaction whether good or bad and this simply put, was avoidable. At some point people must be held accountable for their actions and not allowed to just do what they want when they want and not face any consequences especially when it so clearly and devastatingly has affected others & their loved ones.Justice for Ahmaud ArberyBack on February 23, 2020, Ahmaud Arbery, a twenty-five-year-old African American man was jogging near his home in Brunswick, Georgia on a Sunday afternoon. Ahmaud was chased down and killed by three white men with guns. Travis McMichael, his father Gregory McMichael, and their neighbor William Bryan Jr. These three white men saw a black man and decided to confront Ahmaud accusing him of burglary and tried to conduct a citizen's arrest. When Ahmaud tried to protect himself, by fighting them off, he was shot in cold blood. The crime was videotaped by the neighbor, William Bryan Jr.Once this story got media attention and it went mainstream, black people demanded that justice be served and that all three men be charged with Ahmaud's murder. Now, eighteen months later, the men are on trial and facing malice murder and felony murder for killing Ahmaud Arbery. Hundreds of people including pastors around the world are rallying outside the Courthouse. The Defense has requested several mistrials and the judge keeps denying their request. In addition, the Defense attorney crossed the line by requesting from the judge that no Black Pastors be allowed in the courtroom. He referred to both Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson being a distraction to the jurors. Closing arguments are expected on Monday and the family of Ahmaud Arbery is looking for justice for their son.Welcome to Episode 10 of Season 2 for Authentic Filters.

Friday on Political Rewind: A verdict in a trial from a small town in Georgia gripped the nation. Travis McMichael, Gregory McMichael and William "Roddie" Bryan were found guilty of murder charges on Wednesday. In February 2020, the three men chased Ahmaud Arbery, a 25-year-old Black man, in pickup trucks as he jogged in a Coastal Georgia neighborhood. Travis McMichael shot and killed Arbery during the chase. Bryan filmed the killing on his cellphone. Travis, the shooter, was found guilty on all nine counts. His father, Greg McMichael, was convicted on eight of the nine. Bryan was convicted on six counts.  However, questions linger. This trial may never have happened, were it not for the shocking video that exposed the shooting and the failure of law enforcement to initially hold anyone accountable. Outside the courtroom following the verdict, the Rev. Al Sharpton told a crowd much work was left to be done. So what should we make of the outcome of the trial? Emory University professor Dr. Andra Gillespie said more consideration is needed of subtle examples of racism in society. "My concern in the grand scheme of things is when can we develop a consensus that racism manifests itself in ways that is not as obvious as a bunch of guys hunting a Black man as he's walking down the street," she said. "That's when I know that our society has made progress, and that's the thing that I'm still hopeful we can get there.

Can Self-Defense Laws Survive in a Gun-Rich Country?

House of Public Discourse Progressive News Network

Can Self-Defense Laws Survive in a Gun-Rich Country?   Taking the law into our own hands and claiming self-defense when someone is shot is the subject of the Kyle Rittenhouse and Ahmaud Arbery cases.   During two closely watched murder trials in two different states this past week, juries heard strikingly similar stories: men bought guns in the name of protecting the public and then told juries they killed unarmed people in self-defense.   In one case, Kyle Rittenhouse fatally shot two men and wounded a third in the unrest following a police shooting in Kenosha, Wis.    Another case involved Ahmaud Arbery, a Black man, who was shot after being pursued by three white men suspected of breaking into a house in the neighborhood. In both cases, the defendants started shooting as the victims were trying to steal their guns.     In other words, their own decision to carry a gun became a justification to use it, lest it be wrested away from them,” said Eric Ruben, an expert on the Second Amendment at the S.M.U. Dedman School of Law in Dallas.   It is evident, from these two cases, that; our concept of self-defense has deep flaws that are treasured, but not prepared to deal with an era of gun rights expansion, political extremism, and rising violence in a situation where race is heavily influencing perceptions of threat.   A powerful vigilante strain.   As a result of the fact that our citizens have guns, every line has become blurred. The combination of "stand your ground" provisions and citizen's arrest laws has granted people license not only to defend themselves but to go after others as well.[See Source]   Defense is the act of defending. But what constitutes reasonableness? At what point must one retreat? And when is a citizen allowed to act as an aggressor on behalf of the state?   Rifts have appeared in several debates, starting with whether openly displaying firearms makes people feel safer at  the expense of everyone else, whether brandishing a gun constitutes a threat or self-defense, and whether people may benefit from self-defense claims if their actions contributed to the danger.   Migrant militia members accused of plotting to kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer clashed with elected officials trying to make a so called  citizen's arrest. It was argued in St. Louis whether white residents who aimed guns at Black Lives Matter protesters were assaulting them or defending their homes. They pleaded guilty to misdemeanor assault and harassment, then were pardoned by the governor.   Nine plaintiffs who were among those injured or traumatized by the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Va., in 2017, are suing the rally's organizers, alleging a plan and intent to engage in violence, but the defendants claim that the violence, in which one counterprotester died, was justified by self-defense.   People have the right to self-defense when they reasonably believe there is an imminent threat of harm, whether or not they are right. It is possible to mistake a realistic prop gun for a real weapon, for instance.   Some statutes, however, stipulate that someone cannot claim self-defense if they were the "initial aggressor" - in other words if they provoked or were doing something wrong at the time of the use of force. If an initial aggressor withdraws or backs away from an encounter they may regain their self-defense claim. The aggressor must also pose a threat of imminent harm.   It is provocation if you assault someone without justification. If you ask for an explanation of offensive words, address a sensitive subject, engage in an inconsiderate act, or travel near someone, it does not constitute provoking an encounter.   In the Arbery case, According to defendants Gregory McMichael, Travis McMichael and neighbor William Bryan, they were pursuing Mr. Arbery as part of a citizen's arrest, and he was shot after trying to grab one of their guns.   There is no mention of Mr. Arbery's voice in the proceedings, who may have had his self-defense claim.     What makes the perception that Ahmaud Arbery would have lived if he had complied instead of reaching for a gun, and hence it was his duty to comply. It would be good framing for Ahmaud Arbery if three guys rolled up on him with guns, he didn't know what their intentions were?   There has been a tendency in the United States to increase the right to self-defense rather than to protect those whose actions may harm others. As a result of "make my day" laws, people who harm intruders in their own homes are presumed to have acted in self-defense. Classic self-defense theory's "duty to retreat" has been undermined by laws requiring people who are in an area where they have a right to be to retreat, such as at a public protest, to retreat.   Most states require prosecutors to demonstrate that the defendant did not act in self defense, rather than requiring defendants to demonstrate that they did.   A new law in Utah, except for those accused of attacking a police officer, enables defendants to request a special hearing at which prosecutors must prove the accused was not acting in self-defense.    Despite the expansion of the legal framework for self-defense, experts say it has left certain key concepts like the "initial aggressor" poorly defined. As part of the trial of George Zimmerman, Mr. Zimmerman was accused of killing Trayvon Martin. In 2012, while visiting relatives in a gated community. Mr. Zimmerman, who was Hispanic, was deemed the first aggressor by prosecutors. He followed Mr. Martin on foot and in his car before Mr. Martin knocked him down. Mr. Zimmerman initially identified Mr. Martin as suspicious. The jury disagreed and acquitted Mr. Zimmerman.   Mr. Zimmerman was the only person armed in that case. In a situation where two strangers are armed, who is the "primary aggressor"?    In the Kenosha trial, Mr. Rittenhouse, now 18, was armed with a semiautomatic rifle that he was not legally allowed to own. After he shot and killed a man who he believed was trying to grab his gun, as well as a man who hit him with a skateboard in an apparent attempt to stop him, a nearby paramedic named Gaige Grosskreutz raised his hands in the air. In that moment, Mr. Grosskreutz said this week, he believed Mr. Rittenhouse racked his rifle and refused to accept his surrender.   Grosskreutz pointed his handgun toward Mr. Rittenhouse, although his concealed-carry permit had expi d. Mr. Rittenhouse fired one shot at Grosskreutz.   Both Grosskreutz and Rittenhouse said they were trying to save their own lives. According to philosopher Renee Jorgensen, who has researched self-defense and reasonable mistakes, one can look at the parking lot as a Wild West situation where neither man wrongs the other and neither is wronged by the other.   As white men, Mr. Rittenhouse and Mr. Grosskreutz took the law into their own hands to varying degrees that night, offering themselves as private guardians of public safety.   According to experts, self-defense, vigilantism, and policing are related practices rooted in deeply racialized American traditions in which Black people, particularly men, are seen as threats and white people are given the benefit of the doubt.   In an analysis of homicides after Trayvon Martin's death, the Urban Institute discovered that white perpetrators and black victims were 281% more likely to be ruled justified than white perpetrators and white victims.   In the Arbery case this past week, a defense lawyer objected to having high-profile Black pastors in the courtroom, arguing that their presence was “intimidating.”   The standard of reasonable fear applies to both self-defense cases and police use-of-force cases, although officers are given greater leeway than civilians. Many police killings have been viewed as being the product of implicit bias due to the reasonable fear standard.   Based on our research, scholars are considering ways to adapt self-defense laws to a nation awash in guns and counteract prevailing prejudices. GW law professor Cynthia Lee has begun work on a universal definition of what is considered an initial aggressor. Lee is known for her model statute on police use of force. A law like Wisconsin's would give prosecutors another option, allowing them to prove that the aggressor intended to provoke violence with a plan of retaliation, something that is difficult for prosecutors to do. There would also be special scrutiny when guns are involved, regardless of whether they were legal.   Displaying a firearm or pointing it at another person is a threatening act that could reasonably lead to death or serious bodily harm, in my opinion.   In closing, this writer would contend that walking around in public with a symbol of hate and white supremacy strapped to your shoulder period much less at a Black Lives Matter riot makes Rittenhouse the real initial aggressor in this case and we feel here in the House of Public Discourse that justice was not only not served in this case it was purposely circumvented by a racist judge.

Jury continues deliberations in trial for Ahmaud Arbery's killing. A jury is continuing deliberations Wednesday in the trial of three men charged with killing Ahmaud Arbery in Brunswick, Georgia.  Travis McMichael, his father Gregory McMichael and their neighbor William "Roddie" Bryan have all been charged with murder and other counts for the death of Arbery, a 25-year-old Black man who was jogging in the neighborhood in February 2020. The court heard final rebuttal arguments from the prosecution Tuesday morning, after both the prosecution and the defense delivered their closing arguments on Monday.   The defense claims the men acted lawfully under the state's citizen's arrest law — which was in effect at the time but has since been repealed — because they were suspicious he might have been involved in neighborhood burglaries. And they say they had a right of self-defense against Arbery who, one defense attorney said Monday, "chose to fight."  The prosecution disputed all of that. "All three of these defendants made assumptions — made assumptions about what was going on that day, and they made their decision to attack Ahmaud Arbery in their driveways because he was a Black man running down the street," lead prosecutor Linda Dunikoski told the jury. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/Teddy-G/support

Closing arguments are happening today in Ahmaud Arbery's murder trial, as the prosecution seeks justice through the conviction of father-and-son duo Travis and Gregory McMichael, as well as their neighbor William Bryan Jr.. Attorney Barbara Arnwine, who is also the Founder and President of the Transformative Justice Coalition, has been working with Ahmaud's family and their community since the beginning, and she reports to us about a trial that has been rife with misconduct and failures of the criminal justice system. Just yesterday, the defense made multiple requests to have the Transformative Justice Coalition removed from the courtroom--this is after he asked for Black pastors to be excluded last week. And that's just a piece of the misconduct pie, and Barbara breaks it down for us and lets us know what we can expect today.

The meaning behind the name of the podcast is that it features Malaika (Mal) and Alex; we are a couple who will talk about a couple of things.. get it? lol. Tune into our podcast where we will discuss pretty much everything from music, common debatable topics, pop culture, fashion/streetwear, life/life advice, financial literacy, career advice, relationship advice/topics, etc. As a couple who been together since 2014, we have many meaningful conversations full of critical thinking and playing devil's advocate and we are also very educated in our fields of Economics and Accounting, so we wanted people to be able to tap into these conversations and get a chance to hear some valuable things we have to offer/share.In this podcast we briefly discussed the Staples Center being renamed to Crypto.com Center, and a Twitter debate about when you should move out your parents house and our opinion. We then followed up with last weeks episode with the outcome of the Kyle Rittenhouse trial and the not guilty verdict we predicted. We went into the subject deeper about an issue with wannabe cop losers aka the George Zimmerman's, Kyle Rittenhouse's and the McMichael's of the world who over step their citizen duties. As you all should know, George Zimmerman , a neighborhood watch man aka wannabe cop loser, killed Trayvon Martin in 2012 after actual law enforcement told him not to follow him and Travis and Gregory McMichael chased down and killed Ahmaud Arbery thinking they were going to stop someone who they thought was responsible for neighborhood break ins, aka wannabee loser cops lmao. We then talked about the unfortunate killing of rapper Young Dolph, street rappers, the need to stay away from certain places once you reach a level of fame and fortune, the issue with hometown haters and moving away from your hometown once you make it. We wrapped up the podcast discussing the crazy fiasco of DaBaby and Danileigh, what we can learn from woman like Danileigh and Summer Walker, how DaBaby and Danileigh were wrong in this recent situation, if we should sympathize with Danileigh, and if we think Dani is a sidechick like DaBaby said. To close, Mal discussed her brief opinion on the whole # SurvivingSophia mess regarding an apparent scammer named Sophia Nur who infiltrated celebrity and influencer spaces by lying and scamming and the mess that ensued on Twitter when this story went viral and the wars that were happening between Somalis and influencers on Twitter spaces. _________________________________________________________OUR SOCIAL MEDIA:Podcast YouTube Channel: https://youtube.com/channel/UCUA7mQPLZ2tf5yBzCQZvsCwMAL'S personal YouTube Channel: https://youtube.com/c/TheLifeofMalMAL'S IG & Twitter: @malwavesbackup twitter: @malwaves2ALEX'S personal YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqFmKxPqWpUbxor_sYQRQgQALEX'S IG: @theonlyalexgALEX'S Twitter: @itstheonlyalexgInstrumental/beats by him!

On February 26, 2012, a “neighborhood watch captain” named George Zimmerman shot and killed a young African American man named Trayvon Martin in Sanford, Florida. Almost eight years later to the day, in Brunswick, Georgia, 264 miles due north of Sanford, Florida, a group of self-appointed law enforcers – Gregory McMichael, Travis McMichael and William “Roddie” Bryan -- pursued another African American man, Ahmaud Arbery.  During the pursuit, Travis McMichael twice shot Ahmaud Arbery in the chest with a shotgun killing him. The two cases are remarkably similar. In this episode, Serge and Clarke reflect on the way in which the cases unfolded, the juries were selected, and the shooters defended themselves in the courtroom.

Here's what's on Leid Stories today. In the Glynn County courthouse in Brunswick, Georgia, state prosecutors yesterday rested their case against three white men -- Gregory McMichael, 64; his 35-year-old son Travis McMichael; and William "Roddie" Bryan, a 52-year-old family friend and neighbor of the Travises. Leid Stories listeners were on the right track in pointing up major issues in the case as the courtroom battle unfolded, and then again as lawyers for the three defendants hinted at their clients' side of the story.

How will they explain their actions that fateful day, Feb. 23, 2020, when Ahmaud Arbery was jogging through their predominantly white neighborhood but was chased by the trio and brutally killed?

Monday on Political Rewind: Race continues to be a central theme in the case of Travis McMichael, Gregory McMichael and William "Roddie" Bryan — the three white men charged with murder in the shooting of Black jogger Ahmaud Arbery in 2020. A defense attorney in the case received criticism after complaining about the presence of Black pastors, including well-known names like Rev. Al Sharpton, in the courtroom. Emory professor of constitutional law Fred Smith said the attorney's comments are notable because they provide additional framing of the high-profile case within America's ongoing reckoning with racism. "Part of what we're seeing in this particular trial is that the subtext of race — which is often present in the American criminal legal system — the subtext is just the text,” Emory professor Fred Smith said. “There's also, built into that, a broader context in the criminal legal system, where many scholars like Paul Butler and others have written, about how when police see African Americans, they are viewed more as a threat and how that's kind of a thread throughout criminal legal system." Meanwhile, President Joe Biden is scheduled to sign the long-awaited infrastructure bill Monday. Every Republican member of Georgia congressional delegation voted against the measure. Some congressional Republicans who did vote for the bill, including South Carolina's Lindsay Graham, are being targeted with death threats and calls for expulsion. In other news, a federal appeals court signals its displeasure with the Biden Administration vaccine mandate.

Follow Coco Das on Twitter at @Coco_Das and Paul at @Streetwriter17 We're continuing to pay special attention to the three trials with tremendous stakes: In Charlottesville, Virginia: The federal civil trial of 24 white supremacist groups and individuals who came to Charlottesville in August 2017 and unleashed fascist violence that led to the murder of Heather Heyer. In Brunswick, Georgia: the case against Gregory McMichael, Travis McMichael, and William Bryan who are on trial for hunting down and murdering Ahmaud Arbery, an unarmed 25-year-old Black man who was out on a jog. And in Madison, Wisconsin: The criminal murder trial for Kyle Rittenhouse who traveled with an AR-15 to a Black Lives Matter protest in Kenosha where he shot and killed two protesters and wounded another. All three concentrate the fascist mobs and threats of violence that are being unleashed to build the fascist movement and consolidate power & it reflects the ways in which there is an assault on the rule of law in this country and the most vicious overt white supremacy that threads it all together.

Disclaimer: The views expressed are the sole responsibility of the respective speakers and do not represent the endorsed position of the UC Regents, UC Riverside or KUCR. Discussion Topics: For many of us, the shelter in place did not decrease vulnerabilities but intensified our threat levels. Why is risk of death from Covid-19 greater for the African American community than other communities? Many people feel more vulnerable to risk of physical injury from others than from contracting Covid19 Depending on the skin tone, some us wear the mask and signal a threat Why can some people wear bandanas as masks without activating alarm? Are police shifting their practices away from targeting bandanas as suspicion and instead moving toward bandanas as safe? How did the narrative of African-a American communities being more at-risk of contracting Covid-19, result in a heightened fear of African American communities in public? Are the prior systems of violence also quarantined? People that were hungry before the Covid-19 shelter in place policy are now more hungry under the Covid19 quarantine efforts. People that were harassed by the police before the Covid-19 shelter in place policy are now harassed more under the Covid19 quarantine efforts. The stigma applied to certain populations What are the psychological effects of lynching? What is relationships between the infrastructure of caretaking of deceased bodies away from public site and lack of concern of threats of Covid-19? Are we desensitized from seeing people coded as Black being killed? What is the history in United States displaying dead Black bodies? How do we internalize the multiple examples of violence toward the Black community and express it our families? How do we make sense of he killing of Ahmaud Arbery within the context of Covid-19? What is the history of lynching as state sanctioned violence? Why is there a debate of whether the killing of Ahmaud Arbery was a form of racism? How do we define racism? Is the release of Travis McMichael and Gregory McMichael a form of state sanction of their acts? Is racism as American as apple pie? What are the first legal codes that identify people as Black? Why did Travis McMichael and Gregory McMichael suspect robbery if Ahmaud Arbery was jogging? Is every person that jogs suspected of having committed a crime? What are the dictionary associations with the colors black, brown, yellow, red and white? How does our language rewrite our codes of inequality? If we invest in understanding the system, we can build a better future. Why is self-love and self-appreciation threatening to a system that relies on inequality? Why can't some of run in public because it is perceived as threatening? Have you read the book Bad boys by Ann Ferguson? -Have you seen the film Juice? Why is there a stigma associated with wearing a hoodie? Why do we have to sacrifice our comfort so other people can be more comfortable? Where do people get their ideas about racial prototypes and stigma? If Mexicans, Native Americans and Asians were also Lynched, then why do we only associate lynching with Black communities? .

In this week's episode, Attorney Rosensweig is discussing citizen's arrest laws and how they relate to the killing of Ahmaud Arbery, the young man who was jogging through a quiet, Georgia neighborhood when he was savagely gunned down by a father and son.  Can Gregory and Travis McMichael successfully argue that the shooting death of Ahmaud Arbery was lawful by asserting that what they did was further to a lawful citizen's arrest?  Is there any way they can prove that what they did met Georgia's citizen's arrest statute?  Even if, hypothetically, Ahmaud Arbery was actually running away after committing a crime, did they comply with the law in terms of what they did once they stopped him?  Does the law allow a civilian to not just stop someone but kill them?  Ms. Rosensweig explains the citizen's arrest law in terms of when it is lawful to "arrest" a person and, more importantly, what it allows someone to do once making a citizen's arrest.  Ms. Rosensweig also talks about the dangers in keeping citizen's arrest laws on the books and how these laws have been used by people to commit heinous and often racially motivated crimes.

According to The New York Times, Arbery was running through a suburban neighborhood of ranch houses in a small coastal Georgia city when he passed a man standing in his front yard, who would eventually tell the cops thatMrArbery resembled a suspect in a string of break-ins.According to a police report, the 64-year-old man, Gregory McMichael, retrieved his son, Travis McMichael, 34, and they grabbed their weapons — a .357 magnum revolver and a shotgun. The two white men hopped into a truck and started following Arbery, who is Black.“Stop, stop,” they shouted at Arbery, “we want to talk to you.”Not too long after they began chasing Arbery, there was a struggle over the shotgun and Arbery was shot at least twice and killed. Nobody has yet to be charged or arrested in association with the February 23 killing.The president of the Brunswick chapter of the NAACP, Rev. John Davis Perry II, called the shooting “troubling.” Meanwhile, Arbery's family and friends are concerned that the case, similar to the other senseless killings of Black people that have sparked protest around the country. “We can't do anything because of this corona stuff,” explained Wanda Cooper, Arbery's mother. “We thought about walking out where the shooting occurred, just doing a little march, but we can't be out right now.”Arbery was killed only three days before the anniversary of the 2012 killing of Trayvon Martin, who was chased and killed by a neighborhood vigilante, George Zimmerman, sparking the Black Lives Matter movement.The New York Times secured documents that showed a prosecutor, who had Arbery's case for a few weeks, told the cops that the pursuers had acted within the scope of Georgia's citizen's arrest statute, and that Travis McMichael, who held the shotgun, had acted in self-defense. The police report didn't say whether Arbery was in possession of a weapon.Arbery's family is demanding that the Georgia Bureau of Investigation take over the investigation and pass on their findings to a special prosecutor.
