when glynn county handled things it didn't go well.nt. >> did the glynn county search mr. bryan's vehicle? >> they did not. >> they they pat mr. bryan down? >> no, ma'am they did not. >> and mr. bryan was allowed to go home before he ever went to glynn county p.d. to give a statement? >> that's correct, yes ma'am. >> took his truck home with him, yes, ma'am. >> getting back to that sensitive issue of black pastors in the courtroom, jesse jackson said he'll be here all week. kevin gough who made that complaint now put in a formal motion that is to the judge. he's asking that everybody who goes into the public area of the courtroom be monitored and be noted. the judge has said he does not favor that but he hasn't officially ruled on this motion. so we'll have to wait and see. meanwhile, 250 pastors are expected to show up here on thursday to support the family of ahmaud arbery. victor and alisyn. >> martin savidge, thank you. >>> the reverend jesse jackson joins me now. thank you for your time. before we get to the arbery trial, this is

this is your glynn county law enforcement rash on the case, he knows all about this. what did he say to the defense? how do you identify a burglar? they get caught taking something from a house. then he was asked, but wait a second, isn't burglary, you enter with an intent to commit a theft? what does he say? how do i >> right. right. how would officer rash know what ahmaud arbery's intent was? said it right at the scene. the defense says, of course, there are things of value in there. but those things of value were in there all of 2019. they were in there october, november, december, january, and february. and they were never stolen or taken. ever. by anyone. including mr. arbery. he's not a burglar. so how do you analyze this case? was it a citizens arrest? you decide. but if they were not conducting a lawful citizens arrest, you do not have -- you may if you want to, but you don't have to consider self-defense because if it's not a lawful citizens arrest, that they were the first unjustified aggressors and committing felonies gen mr. arbery, and therefore they don'

you are glynn county. i mean, today you are glynn county. remember, this isn't about having personal baggage back in the jury room. it's not about a point of view or an agenda or anything like that. that's not what's going on. y'all are really really smart and you've paid really close attention to this case. you're going to determine what really happened based on the evidence, and then you're going to apply the law that the judge gives you to that evidence. it's not about being an advocate for anybody. it's your search for the truth. i suggest, witness again that you work from the bottom of the indictment. it's just going to be easier. criminal attempt at false imprisonment and then work your way through it. it will help you logically. remember party to a crime when you're talking about greg mcmichael and mr. bryan. you'll get a form. the state will ask you to fill it out this way with the aggravated assault pickup trucks. he's not guilty of simple assault, of reckless conduct, of reckless driving. he's guilty of aggravated assault for putti

more than a quarter of glynn county is black, but after a long and grueling process, just one singleck man was chosen to serve on the jury in the case along with 11 white people. judge timothy walmsley declined to change the jury's racial makeup after prosecutors asked him to reinstate eight black potential jurors, arguing defense lawyers struck them because of their race, which is unconstitutional. >> the court has found there appears to be intentional discrimination in the panel. that is a prima facie case. before i get into this, one of the challenges that i think counsel recognized in that case is the racial overtones in the case. quite a few african-american jurors were excused through print three strikes exercised by the defense, but that does not mean that the court has the authority to reseat. amy: so that is judge walmsley who said he believed there was intentional discrimination in the choosing of the jury but went ahead with the racial composition of the jury, ultimately, 11 white people and one african-american. arbery's family has said they are concerned about getting a

glynn county police officer gave his first impressions of what you saw that day. . >> while you weret was his demeanor? >> he was pretty amped up. he appeared a little upset. he was talking a lot with gestures and using his hands. >> would you describe him as animated? >> yes. >> the officer detailing in an interview i conducted with gregory mcmichael at the scene where ahmaud arbery was killed. >> did you notice anything on his hands? >> yes. he had blood on, i believe it was his left hand. >> did greg mcmichael tell you what happened, and i'm going to have you do the specific quote of what he said. >> he said i was -- i was in my driveway working on my -- i'm reup holstering some boat cushions in the back of my truck. i look up and this guy -- this guy comes hauling ask down the street. i'm talking dead run. he's not jogging. >> and line 19. >> i haul as and get my magnum. >> reporter: they are accused of chasing and killing arbery while he was jogging in a brunswick, georgia neighborhood in 2020. they pled not guilty on all charges. police investigator parker marcy, the second wit

the final jury in the glynn county trial will include 11 white people, most of them women, and one blackissue in jury selection after the prosecution acute to the defense of purposefully blocking black jurors. of the 48 potential jurors, one fourth were black, but the defense claim that some of the potential black jurors had already formed opinions on the case. >> i wasn't surprised. that is just some of what we have already been facing in this case, just another part of the injustices that we see here in glynn county. >> prosecutor sake gregory mcmichael and his son travis started chasing ahmaud arbery in their truck when neighbor william bryan joined in and starting reporting. travis allegedly shot ahmaud arbery three times with the men saying they thought he was burglarizing homes, and they were trying to make a citizens arrest. all three men have pled not guilty. opening statements are expected to begin tomorrow. reggie: house democrats added paid family leave back into president biden's $125 trillion domestic policy package. -- $1.85 trillion the mystic policy package. debates expec

at the conclusion of the glynn county police department report, he's still a witness. roddie bryan may not be careful with his words because he's never been told anybody is looking at him. but the bottom line is this. three good solid police officers that you heard testify, all interview mr. bryan. all of them have written summaries of their reports. i went through the five-page version of mr. seacrest. the versions of the other officers. not the transcripts. but their actual summaries. three police officers who know exactly what they are doing, interview mr. bryan. none of them interpret his words to suggest that he committed an aggravated assault. none of them interpreted his words to suggest that he was involved in any false imprisonment. none of them read -- none of them hear that in what he says. and i would humbly suggest to you that if three police officers interview mr. bryan for what turns out to be a total of hours. we had an argument about how long the transcripts were and what that would mean. i don't care how you break it down. three experienced police off

that is that the crime was committed in glynn county is a jurisdictional fact that must be proved by the state beyond a reasonable doubt as to each crime charged in the indictment just as any element of the offense. venue must be proved by direct or circumstantial evidence or both. the defendants are charged with malice murder, aggravated assault, two counts, and false imprisonment and criminal attempt to commit a felony and murder. i will define the offenses for you. for malice murder, the state must prove that the defendant, one, caused the death of another person, two, unlawfully, and three, with malice aforethought. the killing must have been done with malice to be murder. malice, as the term is used here, is not necessarily ill will or hatred. rather, it is the unlawful intent to kill without justification. you may find malice when the circumstances show that the defendant acted in the deliberate -- i'm sorry, with the deliberate intention to unlawfully take the life of another person. you may also find malice when there does not appear to be significant provocation and all the

. >> reporter: this is the scene outside the glynn county courthouse shortly after the verdict was read. demonstrators who have been here since the start of the trial have called for justice for ahmaud arbery. >> i've been here 30 years, 30 years, and to get this outcome right now, it's a blessing. >> reporter: the defense team said they're disappointed and plan to appeal, but right now are respecting the verdict. >> these are two men who honestly believed that what they were doing was the right thing to do. >> we felt from day one that the video showed that travis mcmichael acted in self-defense. maybe we had our own tunnel vision going. >> reporter: the three defendants all face life in prison. a sentencing date has not yet been set, and the three men still face federal hate crime charges in a separate case. georgia's attorney general said this verdict, quote, brings us one step closer to justice and healing. in brunswick, georgia, i'm natalie brand, back to you. >> thank you, natalie. >>> ahead on "cbs mornings," we'll speak with arbery's mother, wanda cooper jones, for her reaction

but in her closing statement the prosecutor told the jurors, you are glynn county. i've heard that as telling the jurors follow the evidence and show the world that it's 2021 and in glynn county a black man can finally get equal justice under the law. >> well, kirk, let's talk more about race. the judge pointed out racial bias in jury selection and vice president kamala harris noted the racist troepz used by the defense saying, "the defense counsel chose to set a tone that cast the attendance of ministers at the trial as intimidation and dehumanized a young black man with racist tropes. the jury arrived at its verdict despite these tactics." what does it say that the jury was able to see past all the racist tropes and dirty tricks, one? and two, do you think it was important that race wasn't really argued before the jury? >> well, starting with the latter, the race almost did not need to be argued with the jury. now, that sounds a little ridiculous because jurors can only consider evidence that is presented before them. however, they had video evidence of these whit

the final jury in the glynn county georgia trial will include 11 white people, most of them women, andace was a key issue in jury selection after the prosecution accused the defense of purposefully walking black jurors of the 40 potential jurors, one fourth were black. the defense claimed that some of the potential black jurors have already formed opinions on the case. >> i wasn't surprised. that is just what we've already been facing in this case, just another part of the injustices that we see here in glynn county. jobina: in their truck when a neighbor joined in and started recording. travis allegedly shot him three times. the men say they thought he was burglarizing homes and were trying to make a citizens arrest. all three men have pleaded not guilty, opening statement are expected to start tomorrow. reggie: thank you. house democrats have added paid family leave back into president biden's $1.85 trillion domestic policy package. it was removed late last month to appease democrats worried about the size of the bill. debate is expected to start in the house today on that bill that

he made statements to the police at the scene, at glynn county. he then goes and makes additional statements to the gbi in may of 2020. he consented to having the video downloaded. guess what? doesn't matter. cooperation after the fact does not erase what you have done. okay? that would be like two teenagers shoplifting at walmart and one is telling the other, both stuffing bikinis into the bag. the fact one-hands over video of her girlfriend doing it, does that make her not guilty of stuffing a bikini in her own bag? no. you still did the crime. still are responsible for your actions. this is about responsibility. all right. we are going to transition right now, take a breath, and we're going to transition into self-defense and citizens arrest. how's my time? a person is justified in threatening or using force another against person when and to the extent that he reasonably believes that such force is necessary to defend himself or a third person against the other's imminent use of unlawful force. wow. that's a mouthful, right? let's break it dow

today, we learned that, in glynn county, georgia, in a trial in which three white men hunted down andd a black man, those men were convicted by a virtually all-white jury. in this country, that counts as progress. >> nawaz: paul butler, we don't always hear from defendants in cases but travis mcmichael took the stand in his defense. in hindsight, what do you make to have that decision? you know, defendants in murder cases typically don't take the stand, but when self-defense is an issue, jurors like to hear from the accused person. they want to know his story. travis mcmichael didn't have a story to rebut the compelling evidence that he didn't act in self-defense, that he started the fight when he chased mr. arbery and then shot him, but there was no legal justification. so whether he took the stand or not, i don't think, made a big difference based on the prosecution's evidence. >> nawaz: self-defense was central in this case and in the trial of kyle rittenhouse in wisconsin. kyle rittenhouse was acquitted on all charges. both mcmichaels and mr. bryan were not. and i have to mention

officer rash, glynn county police officer, what as his plan when it came to mr.ery, inform him this was private problem. call larry english in front of ahmaud arbery, put him on speaker phone, let the owner, the owner, larry english, make the decision to either just ask ahmaud not to come back, or to have the police trespass him. meaning i'm giving you an official trespass warning, if you ever come back here again, you'll be arrested. this was officer rash's plan. reasonable. this is what larry just wanted. just somebody just tell him not to come back, please. that's all. that's all. robert rash took the stand, he said a couple more things that were very important in this case. how do you identify a burglar? he was asked by the defense. what did he say? caught taking something from a house. this is your glynn county law enforcement, he's on the case, talking with larry english constantly, knows all about this. what did he say to the defense? how do you identify a burglar? because they get caught. then asked, wait a second, isn't burglary the attempt to commit a t

some of what we have already facing in this case, another part of the injustices that we see here in glynn not just with this case, but with many. it is just another part of what we face everyday. laura: nbc's jay gray has been following developments from the courthouse in brunswick, georgia. reporter: what's talk first about what the judge specifically said in reference to this during makeup. i'm quoting here. he says there appears to be intentional discrimination by the defense team. they struck eight potential black jurors, saying they were overly biased, that they had already made up their minds about this case and the judge said, he has got to let that stand because they did not use race as a basis for removing these potential panelists. what you end up with is a jury that is 11 white jurors and one member of that panel is black. and the makeup of this small town, about 85,000 people that live here, is 26% blocked. this jury in no way represents the community where this case is being tried. that being said, they are moving forward. they had a bit of judicial housecleaning today, getti

reporter: jurors also saw graphic body camera video from the day arbery was killed, recorded by a glynn county police officer. >> it's their duty and responsibility to each other to protect each other. >> reporter: defense attorneys explained their side, describing the mcmichaels as watching out for fellow residents after a series of break-in and burglaries in the neighborhood, and calling arbery the aggressor during the final confrontation. >> it's tragic that ahmaud arbery lost his life, but at that point, travis mcmichael is acting in self-defense. >> reporter: after the long day in court, arbery's f dresd tme video. it's very heartbreaking. but i... i've got past that part. >> reporter: an emotional first day here, and the jury will hear from more witnesses when the trial continues on monday. norah. >> o'donnell: omar villafranca, thanks so much. america's economy is showing hee pandemic. u.s. companies added 531,000 jobs last month, and the unemployment rate dropped to 4.6%. but as more americans re-enter the workforce, many are finding that their resumes are falling through the cr

. >> reporter: there is so much concern about the demonstrations happening outside the glynn county courthouse that the judge moved jury deliberations to a quiet room that doesn't have any exterior windows. jurors are deciding if travis mcmichael, his father gregory mcmichael, and a neighbor, william "roddie" bryan, will each be found guilty or acquitted on nine charges, including murder, aggravated assault, and false imprisonment. in georgia, a murder conviction alone means a minimum of life in prison. >> doesn't matter who actually pulled the trigger. under the law, they're all guilty even of malice murder. >> reporter: if a person is murdered in georgia, law saws the getaway driver can be punished in the same way as the person who is convicted of the actual homicide. it's why william "roddie" bryan could be in so much trouble. he and the others have pleaded not guilty. in her final words today, the prosecutor told jurors that without bryan chasing the black victim with his pickup truck, ahmaud arbery would still be alive. >> once mr. bryan turns around, he went up and down this street at le

. >> >> reporter: outside the glynn county courthouse in georgia today, hundreds of black pastors and people losely watching this case came to pray with the family of ahmaud arbery and their legal team. >> we are looking for a miracle. >> reporter: inside the courtroom, where the family is hoping for justice, prosecutors continued to grill one of the three men accused of murder and other charges in this racially explosive case. >> how many times have you pulled up on strangers that you don't know next to them with a pickup truck to ask them what they're doing in your neighborhood? >> i don't think i have, in that situation, but i have pulled up on people that are running behind, coming up behind them. >> reporter: travis mcmichael, who fired the fatal shots that killed arbery in february of last year, had to admit that before the shooting, his victim posed him no physical or verbal threat. >> never threatened you at all? >> no, ma'am. yeah, he did not threaten me ve verbally, no, ma'am. >> didn't brandish any weapons? >> no, ma'am. >> didn't pull out any guns. >> no, ma'am. >> didn't
