A judge has thrown out a felony indictment against a former Georgia prosecutor, ending her trial on charges that she abused her power to protect the men who chased and killed Ahmaud Arbery in 2020.

Family and friends of Ahmaud Arbery expressed their disappointment Wednesday following a judge’s decision to end the trial of a former Georgia prosecutor who was accused of using her influence to protect the men who chased and killed the 25-year-old in February 2020.

A former district attorney is on trial for allegedly abusing her power to shield the men who killed Ahmaud Arbery, though she insists she knew few details until a video of the shooting surfaced.

A judge has ordered the acquittal of a former Georgia prosecutor on one of two misconduct charges she faced at trial over whether she abused her power to shield the men who chased and killed Ahmaud Arbery in 2020.

Jones, told First Coast News she's "in shock," while Arbery's father, Marcus Arbery, said the judge's decision is "devastating."

An Amber Alert has been issued for a pregnant Wisconsin teen, who police believe is with the 40-year-old man who impregnated her. Gary Day, 40, "is known to be the father of the unborn child," according to the alert. Franklin has a no-contact order against Day, according to the alert.

Senior Judge John R. Turner on Monday ordered Johnson acquitted of a misdemeanor count of obstructing police. Turner ruled after prosecutors rested their case, declaring they failed to show “one scintilla of evidence” that Johnson had directed police investigators not to arrest the man who shot Arbery.

The family of Ahmaud Arbery is speaking out after a judge dismissed charges against former Glynn County District Attorney Jackie Johnson. This ends her trial on accusations of abusing power to protect the men who killed Arbery.
