    Link please. All the evidence I have provided suggests otherwise.

    His mother will never see him again because he was a criminal. Now that's not to say he deserved to die but he tried to take a mans shotgun and died in the process.

    they didnt see it themselves so you can drop that. the neighbour gave a description. the mcmichaels started driving around looking for someone that matched that description. that is not immediate knowledge. if the neighbour had pointed at somebody running away and said "thats the guy, him there" that might qualify as immediate knowledge. there has to be a direct link between the offence and mcmicahels. acting on a description breaks that link. but dont take my word for it. a lawyer licenced in the state of Georgia thinks the same as i do

    Kidchameleon was arguing against police reports before so doubt a lawyer will be accepted either.

    You are correct.
    It is immediate knowledge. Immediate knowledge is knowing something is happening, when it is happening. As opposed to "after the fact knowledge"

    they didnt arrive until after any offence was committed. a neighbour told them what happened. how is that not "after the fact knowledge"?

    Can you please define "immediate knowledge".

    It would be helpful to the discussion if we could figure that one out.

    Youre picking up where you banned mate left off going back to this crap. He ran around the other side of the car to avoid travis. If travis hadn't moved from where he was to go towards arbery and initiated the scuffle , it wouldn't have happened and Arbery , would have continued running down the road. They initiated it all.

    try looking at the link i posted. or maybe even this one.

    if this doesnt qualify as a legitimate citizens arrest what makes you think the mcmichaels have a better case?
    In the 2017 case Edwards vs. State, a man chased someone whom he thought had burglarized his home. The homeowner attacked the man with a baseball bat. The court also found in that case that unnecessary force was used and it was not a legitimate citizen's arrest.

    "Edwards' alleged assault of the individual with a baseball bat entailed the use of unreasonable force, and could not have been part of a legitimate citizen's arrest," the court ruled.

    They have immediate knowledge, did you not see the local area watch facebook and the communication with property owner.
    Do keep up.

    immediate knowledge of a specific offence. they didnt have that. the property ownerhad immediate knowledge. the mcmichaels acted on second hand information.

    I guess the court will decide who's right then

    "In the killing of Mr. Arbery, someone called 911 beforehand to say that a man was inside a house under construction. If that man was Mr. Arbery, and he was there without permission but stole nothing, then he could have been charged with trespassing, a misdemeanor, said Lawrence J. Zimmerman, the president of the Georgia Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers. That means, Mr. Zimmerman said, the men who went after him would not have been authorized to give chase"

    "THE MEN WHO WENT AFTER HIM WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN AUTHORISED TO GIVE CHASE"

    hopefully they will. the death penalty will then await the mcmichaels.

    I think that's very unlikely even if found guilty.
    Probably a murder 2 or manslaughter charge. GA dont use the death penalty very often

    can you? according to you receiving a description of somebody taken from a security camera counts as immediate knowledge


  • Registered Users Posts: 23,764 ✭✭✭✭pjohnson

    How many times do you need it defined.

    Bs and you know it ,

    Amazing the police knew nothing of alleged crimes amazing considering the sacked cop lived there


  • Registered Users Posts: 38,247 ✭✭✭✭Guy:Incognito


    Can we assume seeing as the two of you are clinging so desperately to the hope that a legal definition of what might allow them to actually attempt to stop the guy getting away before the actual police came that you cant justify the way he was killed?


  • Registered Users Posts: 40,466 ✭✭✭✭ohnonotgmail

    Just once.

    here you go. I'm happy to do your thinking for you. will a decision of The Supreme Court of Georgia suffice? i have bolded the relevant parts to assist you further.

    https://law.justia.com/cases/georgia/supreme-court/1977/31907-1.html
    While the actual shoplifting was not done in the sight of the manager, appellant's admission, together with other evidence of the shoplifting known by the manager at the store, were sufficient to bring the offense within the immediate knowledge of the manager and authorize him to arrest appellant without a warrant. The terms "in the presence of" and "within his immediate knowledge" have been held to be synonymous. Piedmont Hotel Co. v. Henderson, 9 Ga. App. 672, 681 (72 SE 51) (1911). See also Humphrey v. State, 231 Ga. 855 (204 SE2d 603) (1974). The Court of Appeals recently reached a similar result in *550 Moore v. State, 128 Ga. App. 20 (195 SE2d 275) (1973), where it was held that an admission of an offense by an accused to the arresting party is tantamount to the commission of the offense in the presence of the party making the arrest. Whether the offense is said to be in the presence of, or within the immediate knowledge of, the arresting party, the result is the same as the two phrases mean the same thing.

    It'll only be "accurate" when the poster agrees with your interpretation.

    I have shared evidence that the police did know about crimes (text messages from police to Larry English). The police were informed that Arbery entered the house on the day of the incident (I have shared the phone call from the neighbor regarding this) I have also shared a phone call from Travis McMichael where he describes a black man entering number 220 looking like he is armed. And yet you still make a post saying the police "knew nothing". Your either not reading the thread or choosing to ignore certain parts of it.

    Can you share evidence that Gregory McMichael was "sacked". I have asked for proof of this about five times now and nobody seems to be able to back it up.

    I will help but I think we need to get to some kind of agreed upon definition. From my reading of that, it would seem to me that "immediate knowledge" is as good as being there and witnessing the crime. Do you have a different interpretation?


  • Registered Users Posts: 40,291 ✭✭✭✭Gatling

    He was removed from the police in 2006 his badge and gun was taken off him along with his police vehicles ,he couldn't identify as a police officer or get involved in police matters ,he was then moved to a civilian job in a DA's office.


    So yeah he was sacked unless your trying to twist the narrative like you have from your first post onwards

    what part of
    The terms "in the presence of" and "within his immediate knowledge" have been held to be synonymous.

    are you struggling to understand? "Immediate knowledge" is the SAME THING as being there and witnessing the crime. if you did not witness the crime you do not have immediate knowledge. the terms are interchangeable. that is what synonymous means

    Is there a non redacted version of these knocking about? What are they calling him in the message where they say he freaks out when *redacted* sees something patrolling. Wouldn't suit to be a certain n word.

    I hope they get prison time for their crime, but no one deserves the death penalty.
    That is why I despise what the McMichaels did, they went after a man armed with guns. Of course a fatality is highly likely.
    Just let the police handle it.
    Unfortunately fatality is still a possible outcome but less likely.
    That were cowardly macho assholes, nothing else. Certainly not heroes like some are suggesting.
