Did shooting suspect Gregory McMichael get special treatment because he had been a longtime investigator at the Brunswick Circuit District Attorney's office?
The Georgia Bureau of Investigation announced in a news release that Gregory McMichael, 64, and his 34-year-old son, Travis McMichael, had both been arrested on charges of murder and aggravated assault.
Anger over the case had been building for weeks, but the incident only exploded onto the national spotlight on Tuesday when a graphic video of the attack surfaced and quickly went viral.
