What will it look like? >> i think thats right, katy. i think the racial animus which may not have been as relevant as evidence in this case, certainly relevant to their motive and their conduct, but maybe not relevant to the act of shooting him, will be more relevant in the federal case, because the federal statute is different. its not a murder statute under federal law. its a civil rights hate crimes based statute. so that racial animus, as you said, katy, becomes relevant. i imagine were goi...

0 men for hate crimes. i dont think it will change the resulting sentence, because the resulting sentence from the state conviction is going to be a very, very, very long time if not life for each of the three men. >> all right, everyone, big, big, day here, so lets reset what we know and where we are at the top of this hour. were following breaking news in georgia, where a jury just reached a verdict in the case of the three men accused of killing ahmaud arbery. travis mcmichael, who pulled the...

Intentionally. so how do authorities make sure that parades like this, and certainly now were in the holiday season -- >> right. >> -- are safe? >> yeah. its almost impossible to make a place totally safe. so what you want to do is just reduce the risk to large numbers of people. so what weve learned to do and what even small jurisdictions may now have to begin to do is you put trash trucks at the opening and closing of a parade just to make sure no one can ride down the parade lane. you put up ...

So if there starts to be things that are coming out, like this is terrorism, you know, they knew early on who the suspect was, so they would be able to at least, in that instance, say this is not international terrorism or anything related to a terrorist threat. so we have to just get faster in terms of trying to counter those who would use a tragedy like this for a political agenda, which we clearly saw on social media. people trying to start a racial -- i dont know -- racial war or racial anim...

And battery and intentional inflection of emotional distress. the jury in this particular case heard from plaintiffs attorneys who had said all along during this trial that they presented what they called an overwhelming amount of evidence which showed that the defendants conspired through text messages, through social media posts, to conspire to commit acts of violence all based on racial animus. but the jurors could not reach a decision on two of the claims but the plaintiffs attorneys are cla...

Dog whistle, racist statements. i agree with shan, though. the prosecution had a decision to make. youre in georgia. not in new york. not in los angeles. and the way -- the issues of race may play out in bigger cities isnt necessarily the way it plays out in a smaller community in georgia. there are federal hate crimes that all three of these defendants face as well. the racial epithets that we have heard were made by one of the defendants. if there is not, and even if there is, guilty verdicts ...

What is your emergency? its a black man running down the street. and i really think that may have been enough to do it. i think as a prosecutor, you have to be careful about worrying so much about a jury possibly being biased that you start to tailor your case towards that. i think you have to trust in the jury. you picked them, wanting them to be fair. i dont think you can try your case assuming that you have a bunch of racists on the jury that arent going to convict. you have to put in your ev...

Pawnshop, rightfully so. >> because the one officer whose job was to check upon slips, didnt get to it. he was assigned elsewhere that week. >> so, it was sitting on his desk for almost a week. >> what did that detective feel like when he realized would happen? >> felt terrible, but serve murphys law again -- adequate assistant we had back then. >> but the pawnshop discovery did point to detect her to the normandy plaza. >> lets talk to everybody, lets interview all the employees. well show pict...
