Former prosecutor Jackie Johnson denied charges of abusing her power to protect the men involved in the killing of Ahmaud Arbery. She testified that she immediately stepped away from the case due to a conflict of interest and denied influencing the outside district attorney who advised against arrests. Johnson stated that she did not discuss the case with Greg McMichael, who left her a voicemail seeking help after the shooting. The prosecutors allege that Johnson worked behind the scenes to appoint a district attorney who had already suggested the shooting was in self-defense. Johnson faces a felony misconduct charge and testified that she was not aware of the legal advice given by the appointed district attorney.
