Man who is charged in the killing of Ahmaud Arbery, worked for years in DA Jackie Johson's office
Gregory McMichael, the 64-year-old former law enforcement officer charged in the February killing of Ahmaud Arbery, worked for years without the required deadly force and firearms training, his personnel records show.
Ahmaud Arbery, who was shot dead on February 23 while jogging in a Georgia neighborhood after a run-in with Gregory McMichael and his son Travis. At the time of Arbery's death, McMichael told police that he and his son pursued the unarmed jogger in a truck while carrying guns to make a citizens arrest because they believed he looked like a break-in suspect.
But even when McMichael worked in local law enforcement he went for years without the required firearms and deadly force training, according to records reviewed by Insider.
A memo from April 2014 indicated that Glynn County District Attorney Jackie Johnson had learned McMichael, an investigator in her office, didn't complete his Peace Officer Standards Training — including the required firearms and deadly force qualifications — for 2005, 2006, 2009, and 2010.
