The Rodney Kang travesty taught me the double jeopardy of federal charges. It looks like the Obama/Harris DOJ (let's be realistic about who's really running the show) thinks the men might get off on the state charges, so they're already stacking the deck.

Three Georgia men accused of taking part in the roadside slaying of Ahmaud Arbery in February 2020 have been indicted on federal hate crimes charges, according to the Justice Department.

Travis McMichael, 35, his 65-year-old father, Gregory, and William "Roddie" Bryan, 51, now face federal charges of interference with rights and attempted kidnapping.

The McMichaels face additional firearms charges.

"In addition to the hate-crime charges, Count Three [of the indictment] alleges that all three defendants attempted to unlawfully seize and confine Arbery by chasing after him in their trucks in an attempt to restrain him, restrict his free movement, corral and detain him against his will, and prevent his escape," the DOJ said in a statement.
"There is absolutely nothing in the indictment that identifies how this is a federal hate crime and it ignores without apology that Georgia law allows a citizen to detain a person who was committing burglaries until police arrive," said Bob Rubin and Jason Sheffield, attorneys for the McMichaels.
