Attorneys for a former Georgia prosecutor charged with misconduct in the investigation of Ahmaud Arbery's killing say she never tried to discourage police from making arrests in the shooting of the 25-year-old Black man.
Defense lawyers for Jackie Johnson, who served as district attorney for coastal Glynn County when Arbery was killed there two years ago, filed a legal motion Wednesday asking a judge to dismiss a misdemeanor charge that she hindered police investigating the death.
