The judge overseeing the Ahmaud Arbery death trial denied a motion for a mistrial after a defense attorney argued that a “woke left mob” influenced the jury.

Gough’s client, William “Roddie” Bryan, Greg McMichael, and McMichael’s son Travis McMichael are charged in the death of Arbery. Prosecutors said that the men allegedly chased and shot Arbery while he was jogging on Feb. 23, 2020.
