[QUOTE="RonJohn, post: 721178, member: 2426"] I didn't see all of it. Apparently the GBI Agent in Charge of the investigation said that according to statements that the McMichaels and Bryan attempted to box Arbery in with their trucks. According to him on the stabilized video, it is apparent that the gun is pointed at Arbery when Arbery is 30-40 feet behind the truck, and Travis made a statement that he pointed the gun and yelled at Arbery to stop and get on the ground. Also, that McMichael made a statement that he pointed the gun at Arbery again when Arbery rotated toward him at the front of the truck. Some items that might have an impact on whether the feds decide to pursue hate crime charges: Bryan heard Travis say effn n-word just after the shooting. I wouldn't take that to mean too much, because people in such an adrenaline pumping event might do or say almost anything. However, he said that there are multiple instances of the n-word on Travis's social media history including a statement that he enjoyed being on a boat in the water because there aren't any n-words around. I don't know if a hate crimes prosecution is warranted or even worth it since he is already facing a minimum of life in prison for felony murder, but it looks like Travis has laid out a relatively easy path to get the feds rolling with one. If that is what his family is like, it also brings into question the Brunswick DA's office. If their lead investigator commonly uses racial epithets, how could he objectively investigate crimes and be objective towards the race of the victims and/or suspects. [/QUOTE]
