(NBC NEWS) – Police body-worn camera footage released Wednesday by Georgia’s Glynn County Police Department shows, for the first time, the grim moments after 25-year-old Ahmaud Arbery was shot and killed in February. Arbery’s death gained national attention after video of his killing was released in May. Officials say he was chased by three white men through the Satilla Shores subdivision in Brunswick before he was shot and killed on February 23. The three men charged with his murder, Gregory McMichael, his son, Travis McMichael and neighbor William “Roddie” Bryan Jr., were not arrested until Bryan’s recording of the shooting went viral in early May. In the newly released footage, Gregory McMichael can be seen talking to his son as Travis McMichael paces back and forth.

The McMichaels chased and fatally shot Ahmaud Arbery, a 25-year-old Black man, after they spotted him running in their neighborhood just outside the port city of Brunswick. Travis McMichael and his father, Gregory McMichael, have been jailed since their arrests in May, more than two months after Arbery was slain. They also contended Travis McMichael was defending himself when he blasted Arbery three times with a shotgun. “You would think that the race of Ahmaud Arbery is the only thing that makes the state of Georgia concerned about a serious event on Feb 23,” Hogue said. Travis McMichael never confronted people "unless he himself was put in danger," Rubin said.

Travis McMichael and his father, Gregory McMichael, have been jailed since their arrests in May, more than two months after Arbery was slain. Then prosecutor Jesse Evans asked Langford about a text message Travis McMichael had sent him last year that used a slur for Black people when referring to a “crackhead ... with gold teeth." “We have substantial evidence that, on the day in question, Mr. Arbery was not a jogger,” said Robert Rubin, one of Travis McMichael's attorneys. Langford's wife, Ashley Langford, testified that Travis McMichael expressed remorse about shooting Arbery. Travis McMichael's mother, Lee McMichael, testified that he lived with her and his father, has a 4-year-old son and doesn't have a passport.

Gayle King is opening up about some of the specific fears she's had while raising a black son in America. King said that while racism is not new, it's now being caught on tape in a way that hasn't happened before. Arbery's death hit King hard, given that she has two children -- 32-year-old daughter, Kirby, and 33-year-old son, Will Jr. -- whom she shares with her ex-husband, William Bumpus. King then shared the conversation she had with her son about the current events. King shares that she and Winfrey are working on a project for O, The Oprah Magazine, and that the conversation about racism is far from over.

It wasn't until May 7 that those men Greg McMichael, 64, and Travis McMichael, 34 were charged with felony murder and aggravated assault. The neighbor who filmed the video, 50-year-old William Roddie Bryan, was also arrested and charged with felony murder and illegally using a vehicle to try to confine and detain Arbery.

Brian Kemp promised a strong state law enforcement presence in the Brunswick area Thursday to coincide with the court hearing. Defense attorneys requested the hearing to make prosecutors show whether they have probable cause to charge the men with murder.

Federal officers stand outside the Department of Justice as Attorney General William Barr speaks during a virtual press conference inside the building Thursday, June 4, 2020, in Washington. But he vowed that the Justice Department would do its part to investigate and prosecute civil rights crimes. I believe that police chiefs and law enforcement officials and leaders around the country are committed to ensuring that racism plays no part in law enforcement, and that everyone receives equal protection of the laws, Barr said. President Donald Trump has called Floyds killing a terrible, terrible thing that happened and called on the Justice Department to expedite its investigation of his death. Federal agents have made 51 riot-related arrests, Barr said, and 114 law enforcement officers have been injured in protests in Washington.

Court documents filed in Glynn County show that Superior Court Judge Timothy R. Walmsley was appointed to the case after all five judges in the legal circuit where Arbery was killed recused themselves. Gregory McMichael, a retired investigator for the local district attorney, told police he thought Arbery was a burglar. They said they soon plan to seek a preliminary hearing from a magistrate judge in Glynn County at which new details might be revealed.

On the contrary, residents say, Brunswick has often stood out for its ability to work through troubled times peacefully, though it is far from perfect. “I don’t think a few bad white people have defined this whole community,” Mayor Cornell Harvey told The Associated Press. But the organization worked with white residents, and many places were integrated without protest or confrontation. But she also pointed to a recent anti-racism training she co-facilitated at the city's Robert S. Abbott Race Unity Institute. Ahmaud's killing “is not just an issue that people here say is one for the black community.
