In a press conference Friday morning, GBI Director Vic Reynolds said that "there was more than sufficient probable cause" to charge the McMichaels with felony murder in the case. The bureau made the arrests within 36 hours of beginning their investigation. He said that the investigation was ongoing and they were looking into other potential suspects as well.
According to his friends and family, he was an avid runner. A Satilla Shores resident told The Brunswick News they had seen him jogging several times in the neighborhood off of the U.S. Route 17 where he was killed.
However, Waycross District Attorney George Barnhill wrote that there is video of Arbery "burglarizing a home immediately preceding the chase and confrontation."[4]

For months we heard "hands up don't shoot" and saw people from NFL players to ABC news anchors holding their hands up with emotional looks on their faces. Months... Only to find out it was all a lie just like everyone else had been saying.
Let's not get too caught up in innocence until the real story finally unfolds. It only makes things worse.

Some more things to note:
1. The deceased is a well known runner/jogger and was also a hs football player
2. The adjoining neighborhoods are heavily segregated and not as racially mixed as some would want to believe.
3. Person who recorded the crime was also pursuing the jogger and was supposedly armed at the time
4. The following day after the shooting, father of the shooter reportedly was bragging on FB how his son gunned down the jogger.
5. Even after repeated pleas, the video of the shooting was never released to the family of the deceased up until a "Good Samaritan" within the circle of family and friends of the shooter and company relented to good conscience and decided to release it publicly.
6. The name of the 3rd person chasing the jogger is Brian Williams
More to come
Sad he is dead. But the story is not "2 white satan nazi's killed an innocent black child for no reason other than racism". Stop with that crap.

Here, I'll help add to your list:
7. The deceased was also a well-known criminal who had a history of running away from the crime scene - well-known runner indeed.
8. The deceased was also from a well-known criminal family with at least a brother and cousin currently behind bars.
9. The sensationalism of how great of a community member he was can stop right here.

Sorry i do not appreciate you claiming i do not have the narrative straight (when i may just simply have a different narrative than yours, and thats the whole point here, to figure out the true/right narrative) and then simply dismissing me, and irregardless I did mention they stopped him before in my post. But again, i do not see that as life threatening in and of itself. I.E. accosting (if by this you mean simply approach, it has yet to be proven they did so "aggressively") and impeding him is not the same as intending to harm him.
That call was one of two placed to 911 relating to Arbery's supposed suspicious behavior in the moments before the shooting, with a second made to the non-emergency number of the Brunswick Police Department.
'There's a guy in the house right now, a house under construction,' says the caller, whose name has been redacted in the two-minute clip, obtained by DailyMail.com.
He tells the operator the property is at 219 or 220 Satilla Drive, which would be around 500 yards from the home where Travis and Gregory McMichael live.
'And you said someone's breaking into it right now?' the operator asks.
'No, it's all open, it's under construction,' the caller explains. 'And he's running right now, there he goes right now.'
The operator replies: 'Okay, what is he doing?
'He's running down the street,' the caller says.
'Okay, that's fine. I'll get them out there. I just need to know what he was doing wrong,' the operator says.
The caller alleges that Arbery had been seen previously in the neighborhood.
'He's been caught on the camera a bunch before at night,' he claims, 'It's kind of an ongoing thing out here.'

No. They are white supremacists who lynched an unarmed black man. They have also lied to the police. He was a well know jogger in the neighborhood. Neighbors have already reported that to the press. He's a well know football player. Shame on you.

The clowns have been charged at this point, let the legal system deal with them now.
