Gregory mcmichael and his son Travis Mcmichael now face charges for chasing down and shooting arbery who was unarmed this happened in february in coastal georgia atlantas mayor is calling the shooting a modern day lynching.

When the gbi took over the case after a public outcry. They released this statement to news 4 jax we are indeed reviewing additional video footage and photographs as part of the active case.
