Mother of Ahmaud Arbery says she was about to give up hope when she learned about arrests: 'I was in a numb state because I had waited for ... two months and two weeks.'
Cooper-Jones recalled waiting for more than two months to get an update on her son's case.
The arrests of the McMichaels are the first step, Cooper-Jones said. She wants to see them convicted of their crimes and sentenced to prison. The McMichaels said Travis shot Arbery in self-defense after Arbery attacked him and grabbed his gun.
