I think if there was any evidence that a citizens arrest was justified it would have surfaced by now. It's been over two months.I think this case will hinge on whether the McMichaels were acting within Georgia laws covering citizens arrests. If they weren't then this is felony murder. If they were then they can claim self-defence because Arbery grabbed the gun.
So far all we have heard is that McMichaels thought Arbery's behavior was suspicious and that he was seen trespassing.
