Anyway............in the latest updates, GBI Director Vic Reynolds said he couldn't speak to why other agencies hadn't acted earlier and added, "I'm very comfortable in telling you that there's more than sufficient probable cause in this case for felony murder."
It appears both Travis McMichael and his father Gregory McMichael are incarcerated -- no bond yet set.
Also, the third person involved in the chase (William 'Roddy' Bryan, who reportedly shot the video) is claiming that he was just an unarmed witness, not a participant, and that he showed the police at the scene his video 'immediately'.
When asked why Bryan followed and filmed the attack, his attorney said 'he was trying to get [Arbery's] picture... because there had been a number of crimes in this neighborhood and he didn't recognize him and a vehicle that he did recognize was following him.'
However, Glynn County Police Lt. Cheri Bashlor confirmed Friday that no burglaries had been reported in the neighborhood in the seven weeks leading up to Arbery's death.
There was only one burglary report recently, on January 1st, whereby a gun was stolen from an unlocked vehicle. That truck belonged to none other than the McMichaels.
