Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr formally requested the Justice Department to investigate the handling of black jogger Ahmaud Arbery's case
Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr formally requested the Justice Department to investigate the handling of black jogger Ahmaud Arbery's case, whose death ignited widespread outrage after local authorities waited more than two months to arrest suspects.
However, a graphic video surfaced on May 5 showing them chasing Arbrey down and shooting him. The public raised concerns about racial injustice and spurred law enforcement officials to finally arrest the McMichaels two days later.
On Feb. 27, the Brunswick district attorney recused herself from the case because Gregory McMichael — a former local police officer — had also been a longtime investigator in her office.
