The three White men convicted of murder in the shooting death of Ahmaud Arbery while he jogged through their quiet Georgia neighborhood almost two years ago were sentenced Friday to life in prison, though one of them will be able to seek parole after 30 years.
Travis McMichael, his father Greg McMichael and their neighbor William “Roddie” Bryan were found guilty in November of felony murder and other charges following a two-week jury trial, which included video of the Black jogger’s shooting that was captured by Bryan.
