Twitter reacts to guilty convictions in Ahmaud Arbery trial

Travis McMichael, Gregory McMichael and William “Roddie” Bryan Jr. were found guilty of felony murder.

Social media users are reacting to the guilty convictions of Ahmaud Arbery’s killers in the 25-year-old’s death trial. 

On Wednesday (Nov. 24), the jury ruled that Travis McMichael, Gregory McMichael and William “Roddie” Bryan Jr. were guilty of felony murder and other charges in Arbery’s tragic death. Many have since taken to Twitterto share their reactions.

“Thank God. Justice has been served for Ahmaud Arbery and his classy family,” said @bridgeclip. “How sad what they have had to endure. Prayers answered.” 

@KaiBanksX shared well wishes to Arbery’s mother, Wanda Cooper-Jones, while acknowledging the work that still needs to be done in the country. “I pray this brings you SOME peace. Because nothing can heal a broken heart or absence of a son!” she said. “This is just [a] triumph for us! WE STILL GOT FAR TO GO!”

In another tweet, NYC Public Advocate Jumaane Williams said the verdictbrought some “semblance of justice,” adding prayers for Ahmaud’s family and for an overall change in the country.

As previously reported by REVOLT, the McMichaels and Bryan were charged with nine counts in connection to the murder of Arbery, who they confronted amid his jog. Travis, who fatally shot the 25-year-old, was found guilty of malice murder, aggravated assault, false imprisonment and criminal attempt to commit a felony in addition to his felony charge.

Gregory, who confronted Arbery alongside his son, was found guilty of felony murder, aggravated assault, false imprisonment and criminal attempt to commit a felony, and Bryan, who blocked the Black man with his car and recorded the encounter, was convicted of felony murder, aggravated assault, one count of false imprisonment and one count of criminal attempt to commit a felony. 

As users rejoiced in the news and sent prayers to Arbery’s family, @newsworthy17’s tweet reminded others that the three men will go to trial again in February as they face federal hate crime charges connected to Arbery’s death.

I am working toward embracing abolition because I know prison isn��t working but these three men can sit in prison and think about what they did. For a long time. For about as long as Ahmaud Arbery will rest in, I hope, peace. — roxane gay (@rgay) November 24, 2021

I still haven’t watched the footage of #AhmaudArberybeing murdered. I still can’t. But today I watched some semblance of justice.  I pray for some measure of comfort for his family, and of change for the country that saw him killed for the crime of being a Black man in America. pic.twitter.com/8x9XRv9tOO — Jumaane Williams (@JumaaneWilliams) November 24, 2021

Verdict in … Guilty, but the system is still trash and needs an overhaul. — Jamira Burley (@JamiraBurley) November 24, 2021

I want to remind people that while the state trial is finished, save sentencing, the federal hate crimes trial will begin in February. #AhmadArberyhttps://t.co/Ss2mJm3QPy — Raisa, an angel among demons (@newsworthy17) November 24, 2021

Justice for Ahmaud Arbery! It won’t bring him back but I hope this helps his loved ones deal with the loss a little better. My heart aches for all of them. — Saundra Dee digs Joe (Cool) Biden! 😎💙I’m VAXXED! (@SaundraDee7) November 24, 2021

Someone still need to be held accountable for it taking 74 days before a charge. #AhmaudArbery — Andre Quarantina (@JosefAnolin) November 24, 2021

Ahmaud Arbery’s killers were ALL found GUILTY! As it should! Ahmaud mother, YOUR son mattered…HIS LIFE mattered. I pray this brings you SOME peace. Because nothing can heal a broken heart or absence of a son! This is just ☝🏾 triumph for us! ❤️🙏🏿 WE STILL GOT FAR TO GO! ✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿 — Kαι Bαɳƙʂ (@Kai_BanksX) November 24, 2021

Reposted from @balleralert - Manhattan District Attorney Refuses To Review Cases Handled By Linda Fairstein, Declines To Dismiss Central Park Prosecutor Elizabeth Lederer - Written by: @RaquelHarrisTV ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ A Manhattan District Attorney’s office is refusing to review the cases handled by the #CentralParkFive prosecutor, Linda Fairstein. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Following the release of #AvaDuVernay’s Netflix four-part series #WhenTheySeeUs, there has been a resurgence of outcry for the life and time lost for #KevinRichardson, #RaymondSantana,  #AntronMcCray, #YusefSalaam, and #KoreyWise. The five boys, now men, were wrongly arrested, charged, convicted and imprisoned for the raping of a white woman in New York’s Central Park. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #LindaFairstein was the lead figure behind the persecution of the men, and now the world wants justice served to her as well as other cases she may have mishandled. But Manhattan District Attorney #CryrusVance has turned down the opportunity to review Fairstein’s previous cases. In response to a letter from a city council official, sent in by New York Public Advocate #JumaaneWilliams, Vance says he will not be reopening the thousands of cases that were managed by Fairstein. Fairstein was the chief of his office's Sex Crimes Unit from 1976 and 2002. In addition, Vance also declined to dismiss #ElizabethLederer, an attorney who was also directly involved in prosecuting the #ExoneratedFive. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ "I do not intend to take either action at this time. Instead, I seek your help in publicizing to New Yorkers the availability of my Office's Conviction Integrity Program process," Vance wrote in response Friday. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ However, in turn, Williams took to Twitter to condemn the decision. “Justice delayed is justice denied, but here, Cy Vance is even denying justice has been delayed. It shouldn't take another 30 years for us to find out why DA Vance refuses to correct these injustices of the past.” @puertoricanflagsup - #regrann #PrFlagsUp #puertoricanflagsup https://www.instagram.com/p/By-jpPxJlN3/?igshid=18zw8imtfvd93
