Racially Charged US Trial Weighs Murder or Self-Defense

VOA says The emotional and racially charged trial of three white men accused of killing an African American jogger focused on whether the tragic shooting was an act of murder or self-defence.

Day Four of the Ahmaud Arbery murder trial in Brunswick, Georgia, on Wednesday centred on accounts of police officers who responded to the scene and a neighbour who told the jury he called the police on Arbery.

Gregory McMichael, 65, his son Travis McMichael, 35, and neighbour William “Roddie” Bryan, 52, are accused of chasing down Arbery and killing him in a Brunswick, Georgia, suburb in February 2020.
