Omar villafranca is at the glynn county courthouse. Good morning. Arberys mother was there yesterday. This was already going to be an incredibly difficult day for her. Now add this insult to it all. How did she react . Some of the details were too graphic for arberys mother so she had to leave the courtroom. The state investigator told the court the suspects felt justified in killing the 25yearold. On the stand thursday, Georgia Bureau of investigations special agent richard dial said he believes racial bias played a role in the shooting death of 25yearold Ahmaud Arbery. Defendant William Roddie bryan, allegedly told investigators he heard Travis Mcmichael say a racial slur as he stood over arberys body. While mr. Arbery was on the ground, that he heard Travis Mcmichael make the statement [ bleep ] [ bleep ]. Reporter lee merritt is one of the attorneys for the arbery family. I was surprised about how upset i became. And i think it was because of my proximity to ahmads mom. She was crushed by it. Reporter prosecutors say arbery was killed february 23rd while out jogging. Father and son gregory and Travis Mcmichael with help from bryan are accused of repeatedly trying to box in arbery with trucks. Then shooting him as he tried to escape.

But i think its painful for all of us to hear what was happening the last seconds and the words that were spoken. No one should have to hear those words. It comes back to this question, why does this keep happening to black men in this country . Its something were exploring in our 8 00 hour. We want to turn to some breaking news from wall street where stocks are climbing this morning after a totally unexpected blast of good news on the jobs front. The may unemployment report shows the u. S. Added 2. 5 million jobs last month. Cbs News Business analyst Jill Schlesinger joins us. All the experts predicted more losses. In a Bloomberg Survey of economists, not a single economist predicted a rebound. What is going on, and what does it tell us . It tells us that april was the worst month for the labor market this year. And so this move is certainly very well received. Now theres a little bit of an asterisk here. I dont want to drive everyone crazy, but 2. 5 million jobs added. We were expecting 8 million lost. 1. 4 million of those came from eating and drinking establishments. So more than half. Thats a good sign. But i should be very clear that the Unemployment Rate could be higher than whats being reported. The Labor Department in this report said because of the way that we ask americans whether or not theyre looking for a job or why theyre sidelined that, in fact, this 13. 3 Unemployment Rate that they reported in may, it could be three full Percentage Points higher. So more than 16 . That is simply a classification error. The Labor Department is going to work to try to rectify this, but, really, this is a glimmer of good news in a pretty bleak situation, tony. Yeah, well take it. A glimmer of good news. Still a lot of suffering but some possibility the rebound has begun. Still ahead casinos in las vegas are reopening with some big changes after coronavirus lockdowns. First, if you think about the last few months maybe itll give us a new perspective. Maybe well see things weve been missing. Maybe itll help us see just how connected we all are. And maybe. Just maybe, if we look at the big picture. Itll remind us just how amazing freedom really is.
