Potential 2016 president ial candidate is controversial to say the least. Well be breaking down whats in the indictment, whether it will hold up in court and what penalties perry might face if hes convicted in just a bit. But we start this morning with the events overnight in ferguson, missouri, where the calm that had prevailed since the state police took over was broken by more unrest and looting. Hundreds of people gathered for a sixth straight night to protest last weekends Police Shooting of an unarmed teenager named Michael Brown. Protesters marched in the rain to the site where brown was killed as well as to the store that brown is alleged to have robbed. One nbc producer on the ground last night said he witnessed a member of the crowd throwing either a rock or a bottle at the uniformed officers outside the Convenience Store in the standoff that followed cops are believed to have fired at least one tear gas canister. Missouri Highway Patrol captain ron johnson has confirmed there was looting overnight at the Convenience Store. Other protesters attempted to set fire to a pizza restaurant. It suffered minimal damage, no arrests were made and three officers suffered minor injuries. Msnbc. Coms amanda okuma is live. Yesterday coming off of theres night we were talking about what a sea change it was both in the tone of the police, the response from the crowds. Now this morning on the break of friday night the headlines are a little different. Can you take us through exactly what happened in ferguson overnight . Reporter exactly. Even throughout the day yesterday, the protesters were largely peaceful. People were gathering even as they heard from officials the official name of the Police Officer who was responsible for Michael Browns death. But as the night turned, as did the protests. Many of the protesters out there were it split into many different factions at a point. There were several protesters who came out later in the night. Now, remember, this is a friday night. The crowd was getting increasingly younger as the night went on. And then shortly before midnight was when Police Officers were said that they the objects were being thrown at officials and as rocks and potentially plastic bottles were being thrown. And that is when the Police Presence went from being a relatively small presence in the area to transitioning to we see the full riot gear. There were Armored Vehicles there. Now, when we were at the looting site, at the Convenience Store and liquor store where there were looters, its worth mentioning that there were a number of protesters who came out and made a human barricade in front of the doors. They were saying, man, youre better than this. You do not want to be doing this. And for a while they were very successful in making it so that more people could not go through the doors entrans. Well, amanda, im reading an article you have up on msnbc. Com with tremaine lee and you are quoting one resident i think it might have been a protester, describing when the people are peaceful, police throw the tear gas. When theres a riot, they just sit back. It made me wonder are people out there dissatisfied with the Police Response to what youre describing that played out last night . They theyre very dissatisfied with the response coming out especially when not only did we learn that the Police Officers name who is responsible for mike browns death but also in releasing the Surveillance Video of the alleged theft that they say that he was involved in. Many of the protesters here say that the numbers dont add up and theyre very fraught with anger over the timing of the release of the tape and they are dissatisfied with what theyre seeing on the ground. And so what was interesting about last night is that liquor store that was being looted just yards away, there were four, maybe five Armored Vehicles just standing there slowly. You could hear in the overcom the Police Officials were saying please disperse, please go home, this is for your own safety, please leave the area. Amanda sakuma live on the ground in ferguson, missouri, appreciate it, amanda. It was one week ago that unarmed 18yearold michal brown was shot dead by a Police Officer in ferguson shocking the people in the st. Louis suburb and people across the country as well. The next day the st. Louis county police chief said brown had assaulted the Police Officer while being stopped while walking down the street with a friend. In fact, one of those individuals at the time came into as the officer was exiting his police car allegedly pushed the Police Officer back into the car where he physically assaulted the Police Officer. It is our understanding at this point in the investigation that within the police car there was a struggle over the officers weapon. There was at least one shot fired within the car. After that, the officer went came back out of the car. He exited his vehicle, and there was a shooting that occurred where the officer, in fact, shot the subject. Later that evening a candlelight vigil for the slain teen turned violent. Local businesses were looted, vandalized and burned to the ground the first of several nights of unrest on the streets of ferguson. Tensions rose as Community Members demanded transparency in browns death. Why was he killed. What was the name of the Police Officer who killed him. By wednesday the city of ferguson called for the growing protest to be held during the day time. As night fell that night police in riot gear launched tear gas canisters and shot rubber bullets to disperse the crowd and they threw tear gas at an al jazeera American News crew and pointing their cameras to the ground. A reporter from the Washington Post and one from the Huffington Post both detained in mcdonalds where they were working. Lets go. Im working on it. Stop videotaping. Lets grab our stuff and go. Hurry up, lets go. Lease dont make me go. Lets go. You see me working . Please do not tell me not to use time to go. Lets go. Were down to about 45 seconds. Lets go as those images were broadcast around the country and as the stories made their way around the world president obama weighed in from his vacation in Marthas Vineyard the next day. When Something Like this that. S the local authorities including the police have a responsibility to be open and transparent about how they are investigating that death and how they are protecting the people in their communities. There is never an excuse for violence against police or for those who would use this tragedy as a cover for vandalism or looting. Theres also no excuse for police to use Excessive Force against peaceful protests or to throw protesters in jail for lawfully exercising their First Amendment rights and here in the United States of America Police should not be bullying or arresting journalists who are just trying to do their jobs. And president obama also spoke with missouri governor jay nixon who later in the day announced that the town security would be handed over to missouri Highway Patrol which is headed up by ferguson native named captain ron johnson and on thursday evening johnson and his officers marched with the protesters. There was not a single arrest that night, peaceful protests sprung up around the country calling for agess on the circumstances surrounding browns killing. On friday Morning Police finally released the name of the officer that shot Michael Brown, darren wilson, a sixyear veteran of the force, police did not release a picture of officer wilson they also withheld the two incident reports on the shooting what they did release was an incident report on a robbery that happened 16 minutes before browns shooting saying brown was the prime suspect in that robbery. Police also releemsed a Surveillance Video and stills from the store with what police say is Michael Brown stealing cigars from the Convenience Store and pushing the clerk when tried to stop him. Later in the day the Ferguson Police chief clarified that they did not know if the robbery had any connection to the deadly confrontation with brown. The officer involved in the shooting, was he aware of the robbery call . I dont know. I dont know what came out in his interview. I know his initial contact was not related to the robbery. At this point why did he stop Michael Brown . Because they were walking down the middle of the street blocking traffic. That was it. After that, however, the police chief did try to clarify. He then changed his story again and seemed to say that the officer had seen cigars in the hands of Michael Brown and made the connection on the scene. Anyway, last night in ferguson we had all the scenes that we just mentioned that included looting and firing at least one canister of tear gas. Joining me is retired atf special agent james cavanaugh, jim, i want to start with the confusion yesterday that resulted from the police giving releasing this video in the morning and the clear implication when they released that video was that theres some connection here and then the police chief comes out and says, no, theres no connection. The officer stopped him essentially for jaywalking and after that press conference the police chief seems to clarify again and seems to say, actual hill, the officer stopped him and saw cigars in his hand and then made the connection. Based on what weve seen, based on the story the police have told now, i guess it raises the single question would the tape even be admissible in court . Probably not. It matters not what michael im sorry, Michael Brown did at the Convenience Store. It doesnt matter if hed just been anointed a soint aint or ba rised every home in the city it matters not because the conversation with the officer stands on the facts right there whether the shooting is justified or unjustified. And from one of the witnesss statement dorian Michael Browns friend, you know, the officer told him to get on the sidewalk and kurls cursed at him so, you those facts seem consistent that the officer said something to him, probably something ugly to him, to get on the sidewalk and thats where the interaction started so the cigar theft, the strongarmed robbery, which that is a strongarmed robbery and dorian, mike at brochael brown hes made a statement to the fbi that michael took the cigars, i dont think its in dispute that that occurred at the store and i dont think it means anything that this is an unjustified shooting by the officer. The other question and maybe you can shed some light on it from the Law Enforcement stand point, the justification from the police stand pont of not releasing the incident reports involving the shooting of Michael Brown, they put out the video and the stills and the incident report from the Convenience Store, everybody is saying, what about shooting that took place . Whats the justification for not releasing that at this point . The justification for that in the minds of the investigators and prosecutors is its still an ongoing investigation. But the problem with that is what should have already happened and what should happen quickly which im sorry to say is not happening is warrant should be issued for the officer for the shooting whether thats a state, murder, manslaughter charge or a federal civil rights violation under color of law or denying someone their civil rights, that should have already happened. Look, were on a search here for something thats not going to change the event. While from times square to oakland were having demonstrations and police mobilized and still having looters and molotov cocktails on a small scale last night in ferguson, its less than 1 of 1 of the people of ferguson doing that but it still occurred on a minor level. Last night there was small inls dent and the police were much more restraneerestrained but th will continue until justice begins and the justice begins when the charge is preferred. There are witnesses weve seen on nbc all the anchors have interviewed, lawrnence odonnel interviewed and chris hayes interviewed them, three eye wjswjs witnesses. Could there be more . Maybe. Theres not less than three. We know who had the firearm. We have the autopsy. We have the bullets. You know, we have the circumstances from the police. This is not a mystery. This is not a mystery. No, i take your point. Theres strong reason to move forward. Anyway, my thanks to Law Enforcement analyst james cavanaugh. I want to turn to former ncaa. You have eyewitness testimony in the public aregion na thats emerged and you have the circumstances that are known, the incident report that is not out there. When you look at the response from the police and the conflicting stories from the police yesterday, are you confident as you look forward to these investigations that are taking place right now one by the county police and one by the fbi are you confident that this is going to get satisfactory answers . No. You know, look, i think we will find ourselves at some point in a conversation about actually how the cops in this town treat this town. I mean, the chief folks havent asked the question whether this chief should be fired yet. They will soon be asking it because every time he gets in front of a mike, he seems to actually provoke this community. Across the country on cop cars it says that they are there to respect and protect. Well, you cant protect unless had you respect. And the fact and the fact that weve seen him come out with these stories that conflict, you know, not naming the officer for days, provoking, provoking, provoking and naming the officer and in the same breath trying to indict the victims character, its a you know, we need the chief to actually calm things down not ramp things up. And if that is who is actually leading the cops, then weve got to be very worried about about ben, i wonder, what do you think the reason was or the motive was for releasing the video yesterday . Because we got conflicting accounts from the police. Was it to deflect attention from the officer . It seems like basic deflection and, you know, its the type of thing that weve seen again. And, you know, its and its very frustrating. Because, you know, this should be fairly straightforward. An officer killed an unarmed citizen. There should be not just an investigation. That officer should be taken into custody. He should be treated like a suspect in a murder. Until his name is cleared or he is convicted. But theyre sort of, you know, treating him as if, you know, sort of the presumption is that nothing was wrong here is ins e insane. I mean, yes, people are having the talk across the country, youre seeing, you know knowknow, iha know, ihadthetalk. We shouldnt have to have the talk. Young people steal things from Convenience Stores all the time. They dont they shouldnt have to worry all the time about crossing the street and getting shot and one in this case really has nothing to do with the other. The only issue here is that a young man was crossing the street, came in contact with an officer, and was dead a few moments later from that officers bullet. And the fact that the chief cant get his mind wrapped around that is deeply concerning. What in terms of having confidence in where these investigations are going because we say theres two different investigations taking place right now, what is the most important thing that can happen right now to give you confidence that this is moving in the right direction . Right now they need to actually focus on putting out a warrant for this officer and stop provoking the community each day. You know, captain johnson needs to be fully in control. This chief, you know, frankly should be sent on leave. He is actually endangering more people than he is protecting at this point. And weve got to get focus on the on the issue at the center of all of this, which is that a young man was killed essentially for crossing the street. And that and the fact that the chief keeps trying to deflect right. And not deal with that is extremely disturbing. They need to take him off the mike and frankly put him out of his job for a few days, you know, set him off to the side, send him on some r r and let somebody that can keep the people safe be put in charge. Ben jealous, former ncaa president , calling for the chief of police out there in ferguson to take a few days off at least. All the details and whats likely to happen next in the felony case against Texas Governor rick perry. Its about getting to the finish line. In life, its how you get there that matters most. Its important to know the difference. Like when i found out i had a blood clot in my leg. My doctor said that it could travel to my lungs and become an even bigger problem. And that i had to take action. So he talked to me about xarelto®. [ male announcer ] xarelto® is the first oral prescription blood thinner proven to treat and help prevent dvt and pe that doesnt require regular blood monitoring or changes to your diet. [ brian ] for a prior dvt i took warfarin, which required routine blood testing and dietary restrictions. Not this time. While i was taking xarelto®, i still had to stop racing, but i didnt h
