The defense attorney representing the father and son charged in the death of Ahmaud Arbery has filed a series of motions in the case.
The defense claims the goal of the motions are to maintain the dignity and decorum of the courtroom.
The first motion requests prosecutors stop referring to Ahmaud Arbery as “victim.”
The second motion requests only one photo of Ahmaud Arbery be used in the courtroom and the photo be of Ahmaud alone-no one else in photo.
The third motion requests spectators are not allowed to wear Black Lives Matter apparel or “I Can’t Breath” slogan in the courtroom.
The Arbery family attorney, Lee Merritt said the motions smack of desperation.
