A Georgia jury will begin deliberating Tuesday in the murder trial of three White men over the death of Ahmaud Arbery, a 25-year-old unarmed Black man whose shooting last year became central to Black Lives Matter protests nationwide.

During closing arguments on Monday in Brunswick, a prosecutor told the jurors that Arbery was jogging and posed no threat to anyone when the men, one armed with a shotgun, pulled up in a pair of trucks and demanded he stop and explain why he was running and what he was up to. Defense lawyers, in their own closings, told the panel that Arbery had been lurking in the area and that their clients believed he might be dangerous.
