(79,302 posts)6. i'd like to see the daughter get some kind of punishment for posting pics of the dead body
https://www.the-sun.com/news/837071/sister-arbery-suspect-picture-body-snapchat/
A horrifying picture showed a blood-soaked Ahmaud, surrounded by crime scene tape and law enforcement officers and was obtained by The Sun after being circulated in the local community of Brunswick, Georgia.
Even though leaked video of the killing has been viewed around the world, we chose to completely obscure the tragic victim's body out of respect for his family.
Their lawyer has branded the image, "deeply disturbing", but earlier gave The Sun the family's blessing to run it and put it in the public domain.
Lindsay McMichael, the sister and daughter of suspects Travis and Gregory McMichael, has admitted posting the unedited image on her Snapchat account - but claimed she didn't mean it maliciously.
Lindsay, 30, said: I had no nefarious or malicious intent when I posted that picture.
The thing is Im a huge fan of true crime I listen to four or five podcasts a week Im constantly watching that sort of thing.
It was more of a, Holy s***, I cant believe this has happened. It was absolutely poor judgement."

If posting that photo didn't violate any criminal statutes, then I imagine Mr. Arbery's family could still file a civil suit.
