i want to discuss now with the lee merritt, the lead attorney for the ahmaud arbery family. e, good evening to you. let's talk about what happened here. the gbi hasn't provided any more details about this search. what -- what do you know about it, if anything? do you have any idea of what they are looking for? >> so we know, last week, the attorney general for the state of georgia asked that the fbi participate in the investigation. so we have an ongoing state investigation, being led by the gbi. but the -- the -- the department of justice responded that it was closely monitoring and participating in the investigation, at the state level. and so, when you saw gbi go into greg mcmichael's home yesterday, you are also seeing the fbi go into that home, as well. >> okay. are you expecting more search warrants being executed by the georgia bureau of investigations as part of this investigation? >> well, not only the georgia bureau of investigations, i suspect that they were going in there looking into that property. looking for how the mcmichaels and other members of that communit

. >>> joining us now is one of the attorneys for arbery family, lee merritt.nk you for being with us. let's start with one of the persons that martin mentioned being investigated, not officially a suspect, william brian. you say he should be arrested too. why? >> if you look at this like an ambush, which is what it was, these men decided that ahmaud had done something critical in their mine, they had put criminality on him based on his blackness alone. and they say it was to ultimately arrest him, but we know they killed him. everyone who participated in that coordinated ambush is guilty of murder. they're accessories, they should be arrested. >> i know georgia lawmakers are renewing their push for hate crime charges in large part because of ahmaud's shooting. will you or the family be having conversations with lawmakers regarding that? >> absolutely. we've already been in contact with the dnc. we just moments ago put out a statement in response to trump's comments about the shooting. specifically, he said that he's leaving it to the governor to get justice fo

some reaction now from his sister jasmine along with the family attorney representing in this case lee merrittnk you. jasmine, i am very sorry to meet you under these circumstances, but i am very privileged to give you this platform. and frankly, i apologize. it should have come a lot sooner. how is the family doing with the news today of an arrest in this case? >> well, as of today, we feel a sense of relief. this has been a long wait. it's been a long time. it feels like it's been a long time. so, this day was a turning point in recovering my brother's case and getting justice for him. so, we're leaving happy. >> i want to immediately take a turn away from the incident this is defining his death and not let it define his life. tell us about your brother, 25 years young, where his head and his heart were, and what he wanted his life to be about. >> well, i would like to start by saying i was always proud to be his older sister. he was easy going, loving, generous, humorous, and over all he showed that day he was brave. that's an overall good person. >> did he have dreams of a specific profess

lee merritt said the footage of the person believed to be ahmaud arbery is, quote, consistent with thedence already known to us. ahmaud arbery was out for a jog. he stopped by a property under construction where he engaged in no illegal activity and remained for only a brief period of time. the lawyers you are talking to, the knowledge you have from so many of these cases that you've been involved with, how important could a second piece of video be? >> it could be very important. the question becomes when it goes before the prosecutors with the second piece, if they present to a grand jury, and usually grand juries go with where the prosecutors tell them because there's no defense in the grand jury. it's the prosecutor presenting why he feels there ought to be a proceeding case here. then the selection of the jury. i want to see the demographics of the county reflected in the jury so you get a fair and balanced review of the evidence and lead to a fair conclusion. >> before i let you go, i have to ask you about little richard. look, atten and talked about today about his influence. th

the arbery's family attorney, lee merritt, said tuesday -- "the series of events captured in this videoonfirm what all the evidence indicated prior to its release -- ahmaud arbery was pursued by three white men that targeted him solely because of his race and murdered him without justification. this is murder." in election news, a federal judge has ordered the new york state board of elections to restore the democracy presidential primary which had been canceled. the ruling came in response to a lawsuit filed by former democratic presidential candidate andrew yang. the board of elections says it plans to appeal the ruling. the supreme court heard arguments over the telephone tuesday in case to determine the constitutionality of a 2003 law that forces overseas affiliates of u.s.-based nonprofit groups to denounce prostitution in order to be eligible for federal funding to fight the aids epidemic. aid groups have long said the law hampers the ability of their overseas affiliates from providing advice to sex workers about the risks of hiv infection. in other supreme court news, 87-year-old

ahmaud's mother wanda cooper jones is with us tonight along with one of the family's attorneys, lee merrittm, i am sorry to meet you under these circumstances, but thank you for taking the opportunity to talk to us about your son and what you think of the developments. >> thank you. >> counselor, as always, appreciate your attendance. i'm going to talk to you, but feel free to weigh in as you feel warranted. ma'am, what do you make of all of these videos that are coming out about who went in and out of this house and what they might mean? what do they mean to you? >> actually, i didn't take a look at the videos. i'm actually kind of afraid to take a look at the videos. from what i can see from the videos, it doesn't look like my son at all, especially on the 11th. >> do you care, does it matter whether he was in that house or who has been in the house or how many times? what do you think of that entire group of speculation? >> that's not really important at this point. what i'm basically focusing on is what happened in the street on the 23rd of february and when he was killed. about your so

lee merritt.hank you for joining me, sir. >> thank you for having me. >> what is important for people to understand based on the available evidence, in your view, about this case? >> it's important to understand that for me the amount of conflict that exists in the people responsible for prosecuting this case. the reason that you have two men who have gone unarrested, uncharged, uninvestigated really after murdering a young man is because of the close law enforcement ties of one of the assailants. >> your view is that the police's apparent lack of interest or inaction in what was a shooting in broad daylight, an obvious police matter with two identified suspects is because there is some provable bias in the links between law enforcement, the d.a., and these individuals? >> absolutely. it's obviously if the shoes were on the other foot, and i hate that his father had to say, this but if a dad went out and killed a young white jogger that didn't have law enforcement tie. that would be under at the v

. >> reporter: arbery's family attorney lee merritt says he also expects bryan to be charged. >> my understandings that investigation is still ongoing. >> reporter: cbs news can also confirm the video was leaked by this man, alan tucker, the former attorney for gregory and travis mcmichael. according to a statement, tucker says his sole purpose in releasing the video was absolute tansparency. fellow arbery family attorney says the video is what might have propelled the case forward. >> i believe that the video was all the probable cause you needed to arrest these murderous father/son duo. >> reporter: cbs news learned new details about the former prosecutor assigned to the case. george barnhill of the waycross judicial circuit. we obtained the email barnhill sent to the georgia attorney general along with his recusal letter. in it, barnhill explains his son, who is also an attorney, had previously investigated arbery. he also included what he claimed was the criminal history of arbery's relatives. >> that letter does not line up with the law in the least bit. >> reporter: we reached out to the mc

. >>> joining me now is lee merritt an attorney for opts it his family. want to go through this step by step. you had what looked from the video and just from the fact that somebody is taping the whole thing, which is this third man, like a convoy of trucks chased this young man. the person in the second truck said he was just a witness. were they together or was this man just following the truck? >> so we're not clear yet, because there was never really a full investigation into what happened. the georgia bureau of investigation for the first time is sending out agents to gather this information. the video alone, though, establishing there was an ambush saidup for ahmad, they were blocking his points of ingress and egress, and they were tracking him and they eventually killed him. as a result, anyone who participate indeed that coordinated ambush is a criminal suspect. >> when you say it was an ambush and they blocked his egress, does that mean both cars were blocking him, basically two cars made it impossible for him to get away? >> that's exactly it. w

arbery family attorney lee merritt thinks more arrests should be made. >> do you think the man who shothe video should be charged? >> i think that william bryan, the man who shot the video, should be charged. >> arbery's mother wanda cooper-jones, agrees. >> he was videoing. he should have been trying to aid in the situation and maybe if he would have stepped in, ahmaud would still be with us today. >> bryan says he's innocent. >> i had nothing to do with it. i'm trying to get my life back to normal, and it's been smeared for the last week. i was told i was a witness, and i'm not sure what i am. >> reporter: since the shooting, bryan's fiance amy elrod says they have not been able to leave their home because of the threats. >> i mean, it's turned our lives upside down. the phone calls starting at 3:00 p.m. the -- we're coming for you. we're coming for you. >> reporter: bryan's cell phone footage is not the only video evidence. the gbi has this video from a camera about a block away from where arbery was shot. it shows a man in a white shirt and shorts going into a home under constructio

lee merritt is one of the attorneys who represents arbery's family. >> after seeing this video, law enforcement has no other choice. they need to go out and make an arrest today. >> reporter: fellow arbery family attorney ben crump says this shooting bears some similarities to another one of his cases from 2012, trayvon martin. >> this killing was completely unnecessary and unjustified. and like so many people advocated in trayvon martin's case, people should not try to take the law into their own hands. >> reporter: it's worth noting a florida jury acquitted trayvon martin's killer, george zimmerman, of murder. and florida's laws are different than georgia's laws. now we reached out to the mcmichael family, they did not want to talk. also, the fbi says they are aware of the case, and they have been briefed. gyle? >> once again the video tells a very different story from the story that we were told initially. very glad that the video exists. thank you very much. >>> ahead, protecting mass transit riders and workers from the outbreak that threatens the future of public transportation. why new yo

>> well, i would first raise that lee merritt, the attorney, one of the attorneys for the families, hadrvention of a special prosecutor or the justice department a couple of weeks ago when we in national action network got involved. the question is will the justice department commit the resources and the commitment to come in and do it, it could be a good thing. the problem with this case, kasie, has been that this young man was killed february 23rd, and the local authorities who apparently had a videotape that has gone public just this week, never moved forward when that tape clearly, by all of the legal experts that i've spoken with, said there was more than probable cause on that tape to have led to an arrest. an arrest does not mean an indictment or conviction, but there's probable cause. so there is little confidence in the local authorities that sat there with evidence and did nothing for two months. and here we are now. it took a tape to really get the kind of reaction that we should have seen immediately after this young man was killed. >> erin, it's to the point even ivanka tru
