Ahmaud Arbery, 25, was shot and killed while jogging in Brunswick, Georgia.
Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr announced Tuesday that he has requested the Georgia Bureau of Investigation to investigate the actions of two district attorneys involved in the Ahmaud Arbery case. The case involved “possible prosecutorial misconduct” by the offices of the district attorneys, the GBI said in a news release.
“Unfortunately, many questions and concerns have arisen regarding, among other things, the communications between and actions taken by the District Attorneys of the Brunswick and Waycross Circuits,” Carr said in a statement Tuesday. “As a result, we have requested the GBI to review in order to determine whether the process was undermined in any way.”
The case is now on its fourth district attorney, after multiple conflicts of interest.
Arbery,25, was shot and killed while jogging in Brunswick, Georgia, on February 23. Police initially interviewed Gregory McMichael,64, and his son, Travis McMichael,34, but let them go.
