they were looking for? what portion? you didn't really show the actual shooting. what portion of that video if you know was a tree focused on. >> the jury did come out and ask for two things. they asked to see the video of the shooting at regular speed and they asked to hear the 911 call that the father made from the back of the pickup truck. we don't know what they were looking for exactly and in those two questions. >> sandra: steve, for anybody tuning in right now, we just got word about 2 minutes ago that the jury has reached a verdict. the jury has concluded deliberations and reached a verdict on the ahmaud arbery case. this is according to the sheriff's deputy which is how it typically happens. steve, before we get to jonathan turley just a moment as we expect perhaps this could be read moments from now, sort of set the scene as far as how the area has been preparing for this verdict. >> they have had a long time to

prepare. keep in mind, this shooting happened in 2020 in february. it has a strange history. there were no immediate arrests made. only after ten weeks were any arrests made. they were only made after this videotape came to light. the videotape was in fact made by one of the defendants, by roddie bryan. if that didn't happen, we might not even be here. he leaked the tape that now has him on trial for his life. as far as the mood here, it has swung rapidly back and forth. we have seen hundreds of black pastors here, peaceful families on prayer vigils. we have also seen several dozen people, members of the new black panther party with high-powered rifles in masks. we are not seeing it today. didn't see it yesterday. it's interesting what could happen here. my guess would be if there's a problem, if there is unrest, if there is an innocent verdict, there certainly will be unrest. but i doubt the focus would be here and in a town of 15,000,

ruling by the judge. the judge delivered a real haymaker right before closing arguments on what is required to show a citizen's arrest. among other things he said that he believed a citizen's arrest required you to witness it or to respond immediately to this type of crime. he adopted a very narrow definition of that. i expect they will be challenging that. they may also challenge the definition for things like false imprisonment. but it's very difficult to reverse this type of case. there are very interesting analogies you can draw to the trayvon martin shooting. george zimmerman said he also followed a suspect who turned on him and tried to grab his gun. the difference, as you know, is there was no videotape. so there were two witnesses to that shooting and one of them was dead. the only one that survived was

insular lesser offense so you have aggravated assault, not just with the shotgun but also with the truck. you had fulsome imprisonment by cutting off arbery. basically the prosecution was spreading its bet. they only needed to nail one of those lesser offenses define the predicate felony to get felony murder. that paid off for the prosecution. it turned out the jury did not accept some of those lesser offenses but they only needed one. the result is really quite complete for the prosecution. they ran the table. they got convictions on all three men. bryan was the most difficult one. he was at a distance from the shooting and he was the person who videotaped the ultimate shooting. his defense counsel took a rather curious approach. he suggested that his client had been brought to the scene by "providence" making it sound

have to prove to make a citizen's arrest, you have to prove that a crime was committed. to prove self-defense, you have to prove you were in imminent danger. but they are saying here is that ahmaud arbery's fists were his weapons. he was going to beat up one of the defendants and then take the gun away and shoot them. what do you make of where the defense stands on this? >> you're absolutely right. the prosecution in this case is much stronger. they did a very good job laying this out for the jury. the real question in my mind is whether there might be a compromised verdict on the two nonshooters, greg mcmichael's hand bryan. bryan is the one who took the videotape and was behind the truck when the shooting occurred in his own truck. they charged all three individuals with murder.

believe, 28th, i believe it says there so my question to you is, why is this trend happening and what can be done to stop it? >> well, i will tell you why, and it may not be popular. i think it comes from leadership. it comes from leadership at the national level. guy back to during the obama administration we had the dust up with the cambridge professor henry lewis gates and the president wasted no time weigh until saying police acted stupidly. i saw that as a counsel downward trend starting at that point. you had a lot of other things on the national scene. trayvon martin shooting the birth of black lives matter all these activist groups started springing up out there and then had you ferguson, almost four years ago exactly that blew up with a huge false narrative being pushed out there against the nation's police which further fueled national discontent among activist groups and people

stand your ground law that law can essentially get somebody off the hook for a killing as long as a court decides that the person was acting in self-defense to save his or her life. that's the argument that the defense is taking after somebody somebody shot and killed this man marqueze mclaughlin outside of a convenience store in clearwater which is between tampa bay and gulf coast. same tactic that the defense used to clear george zimmer in the trayvon martin shooting more than five years ago. phil keating is live i live in r florida newsroom. >> tehran martin' trayvon martis showed up for arrest and murder charge which so far has not happened. all yesterday all five candidates for governor, reverend al sharpton and 500 people all calling for the shooter of marquis mclaughlin to be arrested which, as you said, the sheriff refuses to do, citing the law. this time the whole thing is on video.

party coming up short in addressing that? is that linked to the vote totals every four years. >> most of what you mentioned happened before donald trump took office. you have to remember he's been in office about a year. so i don't think he can own a lot of things like the trayvon martin shooting. police shootings were happening long before president trump took office. we have to be clear be that. what you see president trump trying to do here and he goes at this as a businessman, is he trying to work on behalf of the communities. we see african-american unemployment at its lowest rate ever recorded in american history. he's trying to effect change in those ways. i do acknowledge could the white house have been a little morel went about the response, should they have put out a statement, it is true. we have high stakes negotiations with north korea coming up, we have critical deadlines looming
