Racial composition of juries have been an impediment to black people getting justice. and so i think they strategic strategically spent a lot of time trying to say the right words, use the right phrases and presenting the evidence matter of factually to this jury so nobody could dispute what we all saw with our eyes and knew in our heart that they lynched ahmaud arbery for jogging while black. >> mr. arberys, how do you feel the prosecution did and handled the prosecution of your sons killers, a...

Eventually ended up in the exact same situation that ahmaud arbery did in a difficulty he did not create, ended up being dead, the difference in these two dramatic fates is so clear. for one side of our political party, for 50% of the people who we have to work with and know and be in community with every day to support the political party who is embracing these overt maniacal killers is just -- it makes one have great frustration for the long-term viability of this country as a two-party system...

>> due process, plus a fair trial, the idea of having jurors be able to deliberate based on what has been presented to them, charles, i mean, heres what lee merit, an attorney for ahmaud arberys family said today. i want you to listen. >> i think what we witnessed was an anomaly, oh, my god, they got justice in this case, so thats not a good sign that people think that a case as open and obvious, one that was recorded on a bright sunday day and just last year that it was a big question mark, and...

Merritt, an attorney for ahmaud arberys family said about the verdict today. i want you to listen and respond on the other side. >> i think what we witnessed was an anomaly, the reason why all the media and people around the world are stopping and saying, oh, my god, they got justice in this case. so thats not a good sign that people think that a case as open and obvious, one that was recorded on a bright sunday day and just last year, that it was a big question mark, and there was a strong doub...

That your sons killers have been found guilty? >> feel real good. its just -- it wont bring ahmaud back, but we do know those guys held accountable for the lynching they done to him. thats what my family, we are grateful for. >> there was a moment when the very first of the verdicts was read for travis mcmichael, and you really exclaimed in the courtroom, you shouted, and what was that? i want to play for people what that was like because we were all waiting and watching with you, and i think a ...

Misconduct. i want to have you listen to what david henderson said tonight. >> this verdict doesnt simply convict the men that were on trial. it also convicts the analysis that went into dismissing this case previously. if you look at the letter that youre holding, the legal analysis in that letter is deeply flawed. and so youre forced to pick between one of two choices, either the lawyers are that bad at analyzing georgia law and applying it to a set of facts or they are deeply biased in favor ...

The people who we have to work, with no, and being community with every, day to support the political party who is embracing these overt maniacal killers is just -- it makes one have great frustration for the long term viability of this country. as a two party system, it just doesnt make sense. and then even for our president to say that the justice system worked in both cases, well thats clearly not the case in wisconsin. it did not, work regardless of whether or not, and i use that term speech...

Critical theory that talked about race and criminal justice that could address it. anyhoo, the rittenhouse case was influenced by the judge, who seemed to take quite a liking to mr. rittenhouse. he wouldnt let prosecutors call the people he gunned down victims and draw the names of the jurors to be dismissed so he would feel in control, because thats the luxury this young white man was afforded. its one of many examples that outsized power judges hold. like the judge who decided last week to not...

Occasionally reach the right outcome just long enough to keep people believing in this criminal justice system one more time. i always find baldwin to be pretty much instructive here, but the idea of kyle rittenhouses fate, even if he didnt break any laws, we need to reform laws. the idea of his fate as a 17-year-old when juxtaposed with the 17-year-old fate of a trayvon martin who eventually ended up in the exact same situation that ahmaud arbery did in a difficulty he did not create and ended ...

The truth, that he and his son were driving in a pickup truck with a confederate flag hanging on the back and it was exculpatory. that tells me so much about this entire story. >> chris, it does. lets be clear here, its a relief to see this conviction. i cant imagine waking up to a world these killers were not convicted for what they did. we keep saying it was almost swept underneath the rug and thats inaccurate. it was swept underneath the rug. the prosecutor who initially handed the case is no...
