The DOJ is 'assessing all of the evidence' in Ahmaud Arbery's shooting death to determine whether federal hate crime charges are appropriate and is considering the request from Georgia's AG to investigate the handling of the case, a DOJ spokeswoman says.

The US Justice Department is"assessing all of the evidence" in the shooting death of Ahmaud Arbery to determine whether federal hate crime charges are appropriate, and is considering the request from Georgia's attorney general to investigate the handling of the case, agency spokeswoman Kerri Kupec said in a statement Monday.

"We will continue to assess all information, and we will take any appropriate action that is warranted by the facts and the law," Kupec said, adding that the Justice Department has asked the state attorney general to forward"any information that he has about the handling of the investigation." The fatal shooting of 25-year-old Arbery on February 23 caused widespread outrage in recent days after a video surfaced that appeared to show the deadly confrontation.

Arrests the criminal's parents.

Gun laws in our country is like the third world. A great example would be the Taliban armed guys roaming in pickups and now we see it in Georgia . It’s not a black & white problem it’s more of an education problem !! Free community college and state college !!

This is a waste! I would wait until Biden is president because trump administration is racist

Murder. (Bet they were drunk too.)

Oh, no doubt they will drop it. Probably give his murderer the medal of freedom. Maybe a gig on Fox. This administration is pure corruption and evil.

Barr to the rescue, they will drop the charges, even with a video confession 😏 BarrGate

I don’t know any “runners” that stop their workout to case construction sites. Not saying the dude deserved to be killed, just saying there is another side to the story.

If you leave it to william “howard cunningham wanna-be” barr, those two will get off with no charges and the rump will invite them to the White House!!!

Something fishy about all this. My senses tell me that this might turn out to be another George Zimmerman vs Trayvon Martin case once all the facts are laid bare: I could be wrong.

So now that we got their attention I bet you can find plenty of other suspicious homicides in the past years. Got the feeling this is only the tip of the iceberg in Glynn.

I am a little to the right of attila the hun and even I can see this was not an appropriate use of deadly force. If you are armed you don't initiate confrontations that can escalate. Really bad choices while armed can lead to prison time.

What I find appauling about this situation. Is that the guy who filmed this video, is now having his life turned upside down over the word (WHY) did u not call the cops. Well the 2 men who killed didn't! They grabbed guns and went hunting! B.S.

Oh please, don't let Barr know about this one or he will let them walk.

What DOJ? The one that just filed a motion (filed incorrectly I might add) to drop the charges of Flynn. The man who pled guilty and there only the sentencing remaining? That DOJ?

Hate crime law nothing says racism quite like a different set of laws based on your skin color.

Doj are with

Better late than never, barely. JusticeForAhmaudArbery

What's there to investigate? I, a layperson, saw the video and could see that this was a hate crime! Lock these animals up - yes animals, because no civilized and caring human being could ever do such a heinous act.

Of course it was a hate crime!

Yes bring hate crime charges. Why not?

Sorry cnn but I'm looking for obama fish hooks these days.

Yeah that won't happen.

China news network creating divisions, only enemies do that

What about the accomplice that filmed the whole thing? Arrest him too!!

This is huge - white man kills black man. Completely different than black man kills black man. Stay tuned. Plenty of people that we can call a racist on this one.

ObamaGate

We the people don't care for Communist nazi news

AG Bill Barr's DOJ? The murderers will see their charges dropped to appease Trump's white nationalist base.

It was a target based off of race. Of course it’s a hate crime. And the DOJ is only getting involved because the video leaked. Imagine if that video didn’t come out, two men would have never been arrested for his murder.

The two DA offices involved in this tragedy should be dealt with harsher than the murderers, in my opinion, they represent the very worse of American law.
