None of it mattered because none of that was in question.

title says 'not heard by jury'

I'm posting it before it gets memory holed, because Schizoaffective Disorder is permanent which means he'd have likely had a run in with the Police at some point, in which case their standards for suspecting someone are lower and trying to disarm a cop automatically gets you shot, no dog and pony show required.

This is another case where trials only follow the law, they don't actually produce the best outcome for society

I'm sorry, but his mental health or criminal history have nothing to do with the law in Georgia regarding citizen's arrest. It doesn't matter what he might have likely done in the future - we don't get to arrest people for future-crimes. This isn't Minority Report.

The cops could have dealt with Arbery, but the McMichaels could not, and did not legally, do so.

This was a better outcome becomes it criminalizes vigilantism. I explained this in the comment to which you replied.

I never said it did, once again I'm posting background information about Arbery for reference.

So when the niggers all start up with their "he wuz a gud boi, dindu nuffin wrong", Poal can prove he was actually a psycho and his mental state led directly to him getting goodified.

I see.

I think it's pretty well established that he was a criminal. I don't think even the "mainstream" media is still arguing that he wasn't just another criminal anymore. They've moved on to the Waukesha thing, spinning new lies about that guy.

Thankfully the internet moves so fast that we can counter the false narrative almost as quickly as they can spin it.
