A judge will determine if defense attorneys can use Ahmaud Arbery’s mental health records to help absolve his alleged killers during their respective murder trials later this year.
Superior Court Judge Timothy R. Wamsley, the judge presiding over all three cases, heard two days of arguments May 12 and 13 in a Brunswick courtroom. It was a pivotal hearing in the cases against the three white men accused of hunting Arbery down and killing him.
William “Roddie” Bryan, Greg McMichael, 65, and his 35-year-old son Travis face life in prison without the possibility of parole if they’re convicted of murder. Jury selection is set to begin Oct. 18 to decide their fates.
