Mom of Ahmaud Arbery can’t bear to watch video of ‘modern lynching’ | New York Post

The mother of an unarmed black man shot dead while jogging says she can’t bring herself to watch a video of his slaying — and the family is demanding answers for the “modern lynching,” according to its lawyer.

Wanda Cooper-Jones, whose son, Ahmaud Arbery, was shot and killed by two white men while out of a run in southern Georgia in February, said she’s still struggling to cope with his tragic and senseless death, she told ABC’s “Good Morning America” Thursday.

“I don’t think I’ll ever be in a mental state where I can actually watch the video,” Cooper-Jones said. “I had others that watched it that shared what they saw and that just was enough.”
