William Bryan told investigators he heard Travis McMichael use a racial epithet after fatally shooting Ahmaud Arbery in Glynn County, a Georgia Bureau of Investigation agent testified Thursday during preliminary hearings.

Bryan told police McMichael said "f***ing n***er" after three blasts from McMichael's shotgun left Arbery dead in February the streets of the Satilla Shores neighborhood, Assistant Special Agent in Charge Richard Dial said. Body camera footage also showed a Confederate flag sticker on the toolbox of McMichael's truck, Dial said.

Reading this makes me ill and want to weep. I can't imagine what it is doing to his family. To think that they almost got away with it. My heart hurts.

They should absolutely be charged (and convicted) with a federal hate crime.

I swear, they are like every southern stereotype wrapped up in 1 fucked up, inbred family. I have yet to see any of them have any damn sense. Not a one.

The decent things coming out of this is that those idjits are definitely going on trial for murder *and* now, GA might actually have a hate crime law on the books. They are pushing for it heavily in light of this case. I hope it comes to fruition as we have needed one for quite a long time.

Canada has official federal hate crimes on the books. Criminal Code of Canada, Section 319(2) makes it an offence to willfully promote hatred against any identifiable group, by making statements (other than in private conversation). The Crown prosecutor can proceed either by indictment or by summary process. The maximum penalty is imprisonment of not more than two years.
