The Georgia man who filmed the shooting death of unarmed black jogger Ahmaud Arbery says he’s “not proud” he did so — but he hopes it “helps in the end.”

William “Roddie” Bryan, whose cell phone footage of the Feb. 23 incident sparked national outrage, told Good Morning America he has “tons of regrets” over the incident.

“Yeah, I wish I hadn’t been there,” Bryan told the ABC-TV show Tuesday.

Right as the runner gets up to the truck where the gunman sit in wait, he moves the video off the runner to the right. We see nothing.

It seems like he thought the runner was about to get gunned down.

It will help, in the end, to result in a successful self-defense verdict.

Arming yourself and then chasing down an unarmed man and confronting him with lethal force is NOT self-defense.

Reckless driving for trying to film something on a cell phone and drive at the same time?

That’s a good question. And why was he filming?

Did the shooters and he coordinate the chase?

“So why was he there?”

Good question. I’m sure the GBI and or DOJ will put that question at the top of their list. I live less than an hour and a half from there so the local coverage is pretty much non stop.

“Filmed?” He didn’t “film” anything... his idiotic bounce around handheld phone video barely is able to be interpreted as to the movement of the deceased as well as what was going on right in front of him.

Such as why was the dad in the bed of the pickup, and not in the cab, since the individual came up from behind them. They supposedly cut the guy off on a dead end cul de sac... all the houses back yards surrounded by water.

Jerky camera, wanders to the right... a lot. Silly, marginally helpful.

"It seems like he thought the runner was about to get gunned down."

Use that in the next fiction novel you write.
