The jury found Travis McMichael, who fired the shots, guilty of all nine counts, including malice murder and four counts of felony murder. His father, Gregory McMichael, was also found guilty of all charges, except malice murder. Neighbor, William Bryan was found guilty of three counts of felony murder along with a slew of other charges.
The men were arrested two months after the killing of Arbery following outrage over the cellphone video of the killing. Arbery was jogging through a Georgia neighborhood when the three white men chased him down accusing him of being a burglar. The case has drawn nationwide attention with race being a central issue and many drawing stark comparison between the murder of Arbery and the 1955 killing of Emmett Till. The jury was comprised of 11 white persons and one black man.
