Defense lawyer prompts outrage for bringing up Ahmaud Arbery's toenails in closing arguments

https://www.cnn.com/2021/11/22/us/ahmaud-arbery-trial-toenails-comment-outrage/index.html

Arbery's mother, Wanda Cooper-Jones, got up and left the courtroom after Hogue's remark, saying "I gotta get out of here."

Later Monday, she told CNN's John Berman on "AC 360" that the comment was very disturbing.

"I thought it was very, very rude to talk about his long, dirty toenails and to totally neglect that my son had a huge hole in his chest when he was shot with that shotgun," she said.

The defense is just trying to deflect from the fact that they "don't have the proper evidence to get a conviction," Cooper-Jones said.

"So they're actually going to any measure to get it, to get a conviction, which is not there for them," she said.
