(CNN) President Joe Biden said Wednesday the guilty verdicts in the trial for the killing of Ahmaud Arbery "reflect our justice system doing its job," but added, "That alone is not enough." "Nothing can bring Mr. Arbery back to his family and to his community, but the verdict ensures that those who committed this horrible crime will be punished," Biden said in a statement. "While the guilty verdicts reflect our justice system doing its job, that alone is not enough. Vice President Kamala Harris similarly said in a statement Wednesday evening that the verdicts "send an important message, but the fact remains that we still have work to do." The jury arrived at its verdicts despite these tactics," Harris said.
