situation? is it the same mechanism, do you know? >> the issue comes to this. if the behavior has a common original starting point and is similar, you can get these errors particularly where there's inattention. if you have a different holster configuration, then you get a directed attention towards the process, and you minimize the chance of an error. however, it is much better as greg meyer was talking about, to use an entirely different limb which then makes you less susceptible to the slip and capture error. >> good to have you on, bill. phil stimson and mark geragos. coming up next the lead investigator in one of the school's biggest cheating scandals. if you haven't heard about this you should. we're not talking about students cheating we're talking about administrators. the judge who sentenced some of the culprits to a very long prison time. take a look. >> there were thousands of children that were harmed in

the police chief had to say. >> if we're going to choose between, hmm, maybe we'll let him go a little bit farther and see what happens, or we're going to take him out now and eliminate any opportunity that he has to hurt somebody you're going to err on the side of -- in favor of the innocent people. >> the officer who ran him down was a one-year -- had been on the force there in mirana for one year. he had also served on a police force in tucson and new york city. at this point, there are no charges pending against that officer. >> the suspect, he survived. >> amazingly enough he did survive. he's facing 15 different charges. he was in the hospital for a time. he is now out. he's been seen by a judge already. his next court appearance is in may. i think may 18th. and he has a slew of charges, being held on $25,000 bail. it will be some time before he's out. his lawyer saying there was no reason for police to do this. that they didn't take into

behind a massive school cheating scandal and the judge today who threw the book at him. >> everybody in the education system at aps knew that cheating was going on and your client promoted it. >> we'll have more on what the judge said. but we begin with that dash cam video. police released it today. the incident happened february 19th. a suspect in several violent crimes on the run armed with a rifle and he had already threatened to use it on himself. and a shot is fired by the suspect and the police car comes screaming right at the guy. it's graphic and you'll see it from two angles including from the dash cam on the cruiser that actually hit the man. >> stay off! oh! jesus christ! man down!

put, it hits home. it's about educators inflating the test scores of some of their most vulnerable students to protect their own jobs and their paychecks. eight atlanta public school educators sentenced to prison today on racketeering charges, charges that were associated with mob bosses. all eight refused to take plea deals. three of the eight, these three top administrators in the atlanta public school system, drew the harshest punishment. 20 years, 7 years of which will be in prison and the rest on probation. as for just whose hot buttons this it you can include fulton county superior court judge, baxter on the list. >> i've given your client miss sharon david williams and mr. pitts were at the very top of this scandal, at the very top. and everybody in the education system at aps knew that cheating

the judge really hammered this home it seems like there were a bunch of administrators at the top of all of this who just have not accepted responsibility. one of the attorneys, my client didn't directly engage in any cheating. that's not the point. if you're overseeing this and instructing others to cheat, you're just as culpable if not more so. >> just like a military commander. military commanders don't necessarily always directly observe what their troops do but they're nonetheless responsible. and the same sort of responsible exists here. >> mike it's just -- i mean it's an extraordinary sentencing and an extraordinary series of crimes and conspiracy. thank you so much for being with us. >> my honor. up next how it was possible for passengers on an alaska airlines flight to hear a man

believed to have begun. but essentially, what it was, the educators. we're talking about principals teachers top people in the education administration. apparently all conspired, according to the prosecution, not everyone in the system but a number of them to change the test results. in other words, these were standardized tests given to georgia students, my kids took these tests. and they are going back and correcting the wrong answers to make the results look better make the students better and thereby make the educators look better for the bonuses and benefits and raises they got. so it was basically a group of teachers and administrators that corrected or gave the students the right answers. but regardless it's cheating. >> and the judge offered them one last chance to take a plea deal. and basically accept responsibility. how many actually took it? >> there actually have been a number of times that the plea deals have been offered to these people and over and over it was

education alternatives. they were the ones who got hurt. as the judge said this was not a victims s rerestless crime. >> that is absolutely correct. in fact this whole mess and i think it's fair to call it a true mess is about the children. and these are the most vulnerable children in the state of georgia, and it truly is heartbreaking when you consider that these children were robbed of an education. i'm a grandfather and i feel for them and my heart just cries out for those children. >> and the damage that was done is not simply the years that these kids were in school that they got hurt but because they were allowed to, through the cracks like that without an education, just kind of passed on it reverberates throughout the rest of their lives. >> there's no question about that. and it reverberates in the
