William Bryant, Travis and Gregory McMichael walked out of Brunswick Courthouse on Friday after being sentenced to life in prison for the murder of Ahmaud Arbery.

On January 7, the McMichaels were sentenced to life imprisonment with no possibility of parole, while Bryan was sentenced to life imprisonment with the possibility of parole after 30 years.

Arbery was killed while out jogging in a predominantly white neighbourhood. The three men suspected the black man to be a burglar, chased and cornered him in pick-up trucks before the younger McMichael shot him during a struggle.

The defendants said they acted in self-defence while attempting to make a citizen's arrest of a suspected burglar, but prosecutors argued race was a factor.
