In response to a request by Georgia’s attorney general, the U.S. Department of Justice said Monday that they are participating in the state investigation into the death of Ahmaud Arbery, a 25-year-old African-American man fatally shot after a confrontation with a white father and son, who said they believed Arbery was a robbery suspect, while Arbery’s family says he was unarmed and out jogging.
On Sunday, Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr asked the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Georgia, Bobby Christine, to head up a “complete and transparent review of how the Ahmaud Arbery case was handled from the outset.”
