The judge said on Tuesday that sentencing following this latest verdict would be scheduled once pre-sentencing reports have been filed, according to CNN.

As we previously reported, the father-son duo and Bryan chased Arbery, 25, through their coastal Georgia neighborhood in trucks. The three men spotted Arbery running by their homes in February 2020, and cornered him and Travis McMichael fatally shot him with a shotgun.

His death sparked nationwide outrage as video of the incident went viral online.

Wanda Cooper-Jones, the mom of Ahmaud Arbery, told reporters on Tuesday that, while the conviction of Travis McMichael, Gregory McMichael and William “Roddie” Bryan is a “victory”, federal prosecutors only did what “they were made to do” because the judge turned down their plea deal. “What the DOJ did today they were made to do today,” she said.
