re: Arbery deliberations are over-- VERDICT is GUILTY

Each lesser felony (i.e. assault, false imprisonment) came with an associated charge of “felony murder” if Travis was found guilty of murder and the jury determined that the lesser felony was in furtherance (that is to say “aided”) the malice murder.

So each defendant was stuck with a group of 4 felony murders charges predicated upon the lesser charges to deal with if the killing itself was judged to be murder.

Ok. Still seems odd. Either way these guys aren't seeing the light of day again.

Seems a bit stiff for the guy that filmed it. However, as mentioned, I didn't follow the case so I assume he did more than just film the incident.
