S.l.e.d. will also interview the first backup officer on the scene after the shooting, officer habersham. saying i attempted to render aid to the victim by applying pressure to the gunshot wounds and directing the best route for ems and fire to take to get to the victim faster. the cell phone appears to show habersham using his radio and shows him putting on blue gloves but does not appear to show him immediately giving aid to scott when he arrives, but does show him moments later applying pressure to scott s wounds. could habersham s or other action come under investigation? we are investigating the incident itself and that includes interviewing everyone at the scene. we are still in the process of doing that. and, erin a spokeswoman representing slager s law firm says it might be a while, actually before slager s attorney decides to come out and address the media. you remember he was upset about receiving information in terms ....
