Wednesday was the first day of testimony in the trial of Jackie Johnson, who is accused of mishandling Ahmaud Arbery’s murder case.

Jackie Johnson has been charged with violating her oath of office, a felony, and a misdemeanor count of hindering police as they investigated Arbery’s killing.

BRUNSWICK, Ga. (AP) — Attorneys clashed before a trial jury Tuesday over whether a former prosecutor abused her power to try to protect the men who chased and killed Ahmaud Arbery in the streets of a quiet Georgia neighborhood nearly five years ago.
