Marches have become a daily fixture in the u. S. And across cities ever since. President trump has repeatedly focused on the situation in seattle, washington, recently. He described protesters there who now occupied several city blocks as, quote, terrorists. On friday, he tweeted that the mayor must end the seattle takeover now. But mayor jenny durkan has said the president is seeing a problem where there isnt one, and she says, seattle is fine. President trump has delayed the restart of his Reelection Campaign rallies by one day now. He was planning to hold an event next friday in tulsa, oklahoma. But that date, june 19th is when africanamericans celebrated end of slavery in the u. S. A holiday called juneteenth. President trump announced out of respect for this holiday and in observance of this important occasion and all that it represents, i have therefore decided to move our rally to saturday, june 20th. Earlier, speaking to Michael Holmes about the president s change of heart. Just a sign, how tenuous, he feels the ground to be under him at this point. Uncertain how to react. The president s initial reaction always, in any moment of crisis, michael, as youve seen it in 3 1 2 years is to double down trying to mobilize his base without worrying about the majority of opinion in the country. But here, hes at a moment where his natural moment to defend the police to insist that systemic racism doesnt exist, all arguments that do resonate with his base. The gap between that and what is very clearly a Significant Movement in Public Opinion towards concern about racism, toward acknowledgement of systemic bias in criminal justice i think has left him a little bit at sea. And you see him responding in somewhat a characteristic and flexible way, although hes still going to tulsa, the site of one of the worst states of massacre. Its within limits. Following George Floyds death, activists and lawmakers are taking a closer look at videos and deadly encounters between police and africanamericans. Many are very disturbing. We want to caution viewers, youre about to see some of them. While some are open to interpretation, others vividly show why so Many Americans now say they have seen enough. Heres our brian todd. Get down. Reporter in oklahoma city, Police Pursue a suspect on foot after getting reports of a man drawing a gun on another man. Within seconds, Derrick Scott is tackled and cries out a new familiar phrase. Put your hands behind your back reporter this Police Body Cam video was released this week after protesters demanded. But the incident occurred more than a year before George Floyds killing, scott repeatedly tells the officers i cant breathe reporter st reporter scott was taken to a Medical Center and later died. The medical examiner said there what no traumas but physical strength with meth use and asthma were contributing factors. But this case from austin, texas, last year, is now under investigation. Javier ambler was apprehended, and he died in custody. A death which was ruled a homicide. An investigation determined that the officers acted in accordance with guidelines. But these incidents, along with George Floyds killing, coming years after ferguson and eric garner and freddie gray case have lawmakers concerned why these incidents keep happening. The majority of Police Officers do their job and do it well. But one rotten apple can spoil the entire bearrel. And the reality is that a few define the many. We have do everything to root a corrupt officer, brutal officers, any officer that encases in misconduct or neglect of duty. Reporter neglect is whats being investigated in this case, 13 chicago Police Officers seen on footage lounging in the office of the congressman bobby rush while heated protests were going on outside. Need to apologize to the city of chicago for their inaction, for their for the withdrawal from the front lines. For their retreat in the midst of these assaults. Reporter and in buffalo, new york, a lawyer for the 75yearold man who was pushed to the ground by police now says his clients brain is injured. Change needs to happen. In some cases, radical change, in order to really make a difference, depending on a particular department. Our profession right now is in crisis. And we have to address it. Reporter Charles Ramsey says there are training for officers on to handle these incidents. Training that never took place 20 years ago but he says its obviously not enough. He says Police Departments have to do a much better job of vetting officers when they hire them. And teaching them about the history of police brutality. Brian todd, cnn, washington. The former Detroit Police chief is sharing his own experience of police brutality. Isiah mckinnon says when he was 14 years old, he was walking home from school when four white Police Officers jumped out of their car, threw him against that car and beat him. He said this about it, heres a quote. The more i screamed, the more they beat me. That day, i promised myself that i would become a Detroit Police officer and change the Detroit Police force from the inside. He ended up running the force. But told our erin burnett earlier, the racism did not stop. I joined the Detroit Police department august 2nd, 1965. My first day as a Detroit Police officer, i walked into the squad room. And as they had roll call, i was the only person of color there, as they had roll call, and they announce might assignment with a white officer, they said im working with the and they said the n word. That was my indoctrination into the Detroit Police department. This man rode with me for eight hours and he didnt say a word and i didnt say a word. The man i worked with, his name is trey mitchell, that is the norm with me and other officers of color. Im joined now by Cheryl Dorsey in los angeles. Shes a retired Los Angeles Police sergeant. Shes also the author of black and blue we want to welcome you, mrs. Dorsey. Thank you for having me. These videos that we saw in the report, theyre horrific to see, but theyre there and we see them. Id like your response from the former police chief who said we must do anything to root out brutal officers and any officer that engages in this conduct as well and have officers vying to be closely vetted. Are Police Departments doing that . Of course, theyre not doing it. How do you get at Derek Shelton at with 18 personnel complaints in his career. Listen, this is nothing new. This goes back many, many years. Certainly, i experienced this. Working with errant officers who were known to have animus with members of the black community and yet allowed to rain down on them with impunity. I worked with a partner by the name of Devin Iverson in 1982. He shot and killed a black man. Why . Well, because he was a black man and he could. We heard in 2015, eric harris say he couldnt breathe and deputies on the tulsa Sheriffs Department said f your breath. You can imagine what it must be like for a parent to hear when the last thing their loved one heard was f your breath . I absolutely cannot as a mother. I know you are one, too. You say with the Police Officers, why are they permitted to continue . Are they protected somehow by the Police Unions . Well, the unions certainly have a role to play. I mean, listen, understand theyre lobbying with the Police Department and they seemingly havent seen a murder of a black woman, man or child that doesnt excite them. They work feverishly on those rare instances where they are fired to get their jobs back. And making sure because civil liability often follows when theres a death dror great bodily harm, officers benefit. How do you allow someone to maintain their position as a Police Officer when obviously they dont have the temperament . Something happened in the background check. They were able to slip through the cracks. Police departments do not evaluate periodically to make sure their head is in the right place. So you have officers who live to owe fen offense fend again. There are examples of why there must be changes. As far as changing the makeup of Police Departments that many people around this country are demanding, we would see, perhaps, first responders, other than police making emergency calls. Mental Health Experts or drug experts, i know you worked in vice. Social workers. Is that an idea that might work, that you could support . Its certainly helpful. When i was on the los angeles Police Department, we had a mental evaluation unit where we had Mental Health professionals who would respond in moment of crises with Police Officers. But what about when you stop someone on the traffic stop and theyre having a mental episode and you dont have the benefit of having a mental professional there . Then you got to use common sense, and of course, if sense were common, everyone would have it, so what do you do in those instances . And what about folks who are just leery of calling someone other than a Law Enforcement official to handle those situations . Its a very sliply slope, i think. Its complicated. I also want to get your views on two changes we may be seeing with police work. In kentucky, a bill was passed with nollknock warrants, that was used in the case of breonna taylor. And choke holds are being banned. I think the banning of no knock is and many others who werent kills but seriously injured because of officers coming in with bombs and whatever else they use to blow up front doors. With regards to banning of the choke hold, i mean, listen, we saw eric garner die because of prohibited choke hold only to be told by Union Officials that wasnt a choke hold, that was a seat belt upper body restraint. What do you do when you see a thing, we know a thing and they tell us thats not what you saw. The egregious stories just seem to go on and on. We always appreciate your input, your expertise, sergeant Cheryl Dorsey, thank you seven. Thank you. The coronavirus pandemic is not over in the United States, far from it.

There is a huge inflex of hospitalizations in several states as governors rethink their reopening strategy, some at least. So far, more than 2 million cases have been confirmed in the country. And nearly 115,000 deaths. Health experts warn of more hard times to come. For about it, heres erica hill in new york. Reporter reopening now on pause in oregon, utah, as new cases mount. As long as we give the virus an opportunity to jump from one host to another, thats what its going to do. Reporter the governor of texas looking to july 4th for a full reopening of his state, as Harris County which includes houston records some of its highest numbers to date for new cases and hospitalizations.

Reporter the agency recommending the best way to stay safe, keep your distance, avoid travel and wear a mask. I know its become politicized. Put that aside, the virus knows no politics. Reporter face coverings required in l. A. County which moved into phase three today after recording its highest single day increase this week. Gyms, day camps and tv and Film Production companies reopening. And next week, concerts can resume in georgia july 1st. Meantime, anyone attending the president s Campaign Rally in tulsa, must sign a waiver, promising not to sue, if they contract the virus. We know that the types of conditions that lead to the highest rate of covid19 transmission are crowded indoor spaces, with a lot of people who are shouting and screaming. I think its almost concern that we will see super sputter events come from these valleys. Reporter the cdc statement guidelines that it put out on friday did actually deem certain gatherings low risk or medium risk. Social gatherings cant be less than six feet apart. A reporter asked for clarification on a call by the cdc about whether political rallies are definite lehr ily i higher risk category. The cdc said theyre referring to all large gatherings, anything larger than a backyard barbecue. Erica hill, cnn. Indiafectious disease dr. Anthony fauci say states could reevaluate their plan. But dr. Fauci telling cnn that the u. S. Might avoid a second wave if people follow safety guidelines like social distancing and wearing masks. It is not inevitable that you will have a socalled second wave in the fall or even a massive increase. If you approach it in the proper way. Where you do the kinds of fundamental things. For example, there is some impression that when you open up all bets are off. Theyre not off. You can improve on the economy. You can get people back to work and still do the fundamental things like wearing a mask all the time when youre outside. Of having this physical distance of avoiding the congregation and crowds. Lets talk about this further with dr. Peter grdrobek. As youve watched states reopening, each state different from the other, is it a surprise to you that cases are going back in some 19 states . Its concerning and unfortunately, its not really a surprise. We sort of saw this coming when a few weeks back, many states started to reopen at the same time that actually they were just starting to see increases in the number of cases. I think we were lulled a little bit, you know. Of the big wave, initially, it was in a few places, new york, new jersey and the west coast. And a lot of the of the rest of the country didnt see a lot of cases and early s
