I will be looking into how the #AhmaudArbery case was handled from the outset.

The family, the community and the state of Georgia deserve answers. We need to know exactly what happened, and we will be working to find those answers.
The case has garnered national attention after video emerged of the shooting death of Arbery two months after the incident. No arrests were made until Friday, May 8.
