Three white men convicted of killing Arbery attend pretrial
The three white men who have been convicted of murdering Ahmaud Arbery have appeared in federal court for a pretrial hearing.
Arbery, 25, was fatally shot during a confrontation with Travis McMichael, his father Gregory and their neighbor, William Bryan while jogging in the port city of Brunswick in 2020.
The three were convicted by a Georgia jury on Nov. 24 for killing Arbery.
On his last day, Aubrey was spotted by McMichael who then followed him in a Ford F-150 pickup. Bryan later joined the chase, which lasted some five minutes, in his Chevy Silverado truck.
Travis McMichael approached Arbery with a shotgun and, after a brief struggle, fatally shot him.
The McMichaels and Bryan are set to be sentenced on Jan. 7 and face a minimum of life in prison.
The gruesome murder became an emblem of racial injustice and white supremacy in the US after a graphic video was leaked online two months after the incident.
The Arbery case has been one of the many, fueling mass protests across the United States against police abuse of the Black community.
