Ahmaud Arbery’s Killers Sentenced to life in Prison, with two having no chance of parole.

The Three White men who chased and murdered 25-year-old Black jogger Ahmaud Arbery in south Georgia were on Friday 7th January sentenced to life in prison  with two having no chance of parole.

Travis McMichael, 35, his father, Gregory McMichael, 66, and neighbor William “Roddie” Bryan, 52, were convicted in November on a raft of charges, including felony murder, for Arbery’s death.

Judge Timothy Walmsley sentenced Travis McMichael and Gregory McMichael to life in prison without the possibility of parole. He sentenced Bryan to life in prison with the possibility of parole. Bryan, who is 52 years old, will be eligible for parole under Georgia law only after he has served 30 years in prison because he was convicted of serious violent felonies.

Before handing down the sentence, Walmsley described the killing in a neighborhood outside Brunswick, Georgia, as a “chilling, truly disturbing scene,” telling the court he “kept coming back to the terror that must have been in the mind of the young man running through Satilla Shores.”

Arbery’s mother and father shedded tear as the sentences were handed down, according to a pool reporter present.

Earlier that morning, the victim’s mother, WandaCooper-Jones delivered a victim impact statement aimed at obtaining a stiffer sentence, asking the judge to assign the maximum sentence.

The grieving mother looked at her Son and said “I made a promise to you the day I laid you to rest,” and further added “I told you I love you, and someday, somehow, I would get you justice.”

She said “Son, I love you as much today as I did the day you were born. Raising you was the honor of my life, and I’m very proud of you.”

For Travis McMichael, Walmsley imposed additional imprisonment sentences of 20 years for McMichael’s aggravated assault conviction and 5 years for his criminal attempt to commit a felony conviction. The additional sentences will be served concurrent to each other, Walmsley said, but consecutive to the life sentence, totaling a sentence of life in prison without the possibility of parole plus 20 additional years in prison for Travis McMichael.

For Gregory McMichael, the judge imposed additional imprisonment sentences of 20 years for McMichael’s aggravated assault conviction, 10 years for his false imprisonment conviction, and 5 years for his criminal attempt to commit a felony conviction. Again, the additional sentences will be served concurrent to each other but consecutive to the life sentence, meaning Gregory McMcihael faces a total sentence of life in prison without the possibility of parole plus 20 years.

For Bryan, Walmsley imposed additional imprisonment sentences of 10 years for his false imprisonment conviction and 5 years for his criminal attempt to commit a felony conviction. The additional sentence totaling 15 years will be suspended, resulting in a total sentence of life in prison with the possibility of parole.

 

For Black residents of Ahmaud Arbery’s hometown, trust in the justice system is the trial right alongside his accused killers

The victims Father, Marcus Arbery Sr., Arbery’s father, noted Travis McMichael had been able to sit in the courtroom with his father every day — something Arbery Sr. will never do again.

He said “I’ll never get that chance to sit next to my son ever again. Not at a dinner table, not at a holiday,” he said Friday.

“My heart is broken, and always will be broken,” he said. “If I could I’d have (traded) places with Ahmaud in a heartbeat. But I can’t. So I’m standing here today to do what he can’t, and that is to fight for him, fight for his memory, his legacy, and to tell you who he was.”

No matter the sentences, the sprawling legal saga isn’t over: The men’s attorneys say they’ll appeal the verdicts; a federal hate crime trial is slated for next month; Arbery’s mother has filed a civil lawsuit; and the original prosecutor faces charges over her alleged handling of the case.
