Feds, defense rest cases in hate crimes trial over Ahmaud Arbery killing

BRUNSWICK, Ga. — Testimony concluded Friday in the federal hate crimes trial of three men convicted of Ahmaud Arbery’s murder, but not before prosecutors called additional witnesses who testified they heard Travis McMichael and his father make racially incendiary remarks about Black people.

A woman Travis McMichael supervised during his time in the U.S. Coast Guard broke down on the witness stand as she told the jury he repeatedly insulted her after discovering she had previously dated a Black man.

Kristie Ronquille, who still serves in the Coast Guard, said she was stationed with McMichael in Pascagoula, Mississippi, in 2011.
