12:02 am
give no peace. after a new york grand jury cleared an officer in the videotaped death of eric garner on stanton island, only days after ferguson reignited over the failure to indict the officer who shot and killed michael brown, the gap of misinstruction between communities, and the officer sworn to protect them is growing. take a look, this evening in washington, d.c., people out on the streets approaching the white house, in protests. and in chicago, as well, another seen, people in the streets speaking out on the death of eric garner. and then, of course, there is new york, where america tonight came face to face with the calls for change. >>
12:03 am
>> killer cops hit the road. >> we are devastated we are disgusting with the lack of accountability. there is this peopling that the police are above the law, and we are here to say that enough is enough that communities of color are no longer -- shouldn't be targets for police abuse, and we are just here to say that enough is enough. we have had enough. >> every single name, has someone losing their lives to police brutality. and we just felt like their spirits are out here with us today, and that's kind of the symbol to that. it makes us feel more powerful. >> we hope that new yorkers like even new yorker gathers here. we want to make visible the voices of the
12:04 am
families who have lost loved ones to police brutality. we want to make clear what we want to come out of tonight. which is abusive policing because that is what promotes violence, and that is why we have eric and mike brown and countless others and it has to start, we don't want any more darren wilsons walking free and not being held accountability in a timely and point manner. people are dying. and we are tired of it. >> why did you choose to get involved. >> me personally. >> yes i am a native new yorker. i am the daughter of immigrants, i am also the gad mother of two little boys with color. and i want them to be able to come home.
12:05 am
without fearing for their safety. >> right now that's what you worry about. >> yeah i worry more about encounters with the police. above anything else. >> . >> no justice. >> no peace. >> no justice. >> no peace. >> the crowd is being led by others and right now everything is very peaceful. but tensions are high and all the streets are lined just making sure that people keep moving the same direction. emotions are high, demonstrations continues.
12:06 am
they are arresting multiple people on the west side highway they have requested more trucks to come and aid in the scene, and you can imagine that as traffic continues to get blocked more arrests will take place. >> but are those arrests because there are conflicts or is this because people are trespassing. i am sorry can you repeat that. >> were bottles being thrown or anything of that. >> i think it is mainly because they are blocking entrance waysster blocking traffic from getting through, what we know is they are cracking down as much as they can. >> and they have a list
12:07 am
of demand, the protestors are offering their demands. yes. they want all the officers involved inner rick garner's shooting -- excuse me, killing to be held accountability. and they want to put an end to broken windows policing which is the theory that when you go around and crack down on little crime, that bigger crime will then go down. >> thank you very much. >> . >> these were touched off by the failure to indict, recording on cell phone video looked to many people that in his attempt to subdue eric garner the officer used a tactic called the choke
12:08 am
hold which and long been banned in new york. america tonight, explains why that is, and why it is still being used. he was on his way home when he says two officers approached him, and started patting him down. >> the officer came out of the car, told us get off the bikes. approached us then, and my hans are up by this time, by the time they approach me i know the deal. i know what he wants to do. >> when martinez objected to being frisked without explanation, things escalated. he says his face was slammed into a parked car, then on to the sidewalk. >> i am in a choke hold by this time. it got to the ground, the choke hold again, and i was trying to say to the beth of moabite not resisting i am choking i can't police used the choke holds was banned by the
12:09 am
nypd 20 years ago, after 21-year-old frederico of queens was punched, kicked and choked to death by police in 1991. the officer was later acquitted. >> move. >> the case came as a sensitive time for new york city police choke holds were unnecessary, and potentially he that will, they are to no longer be used without exception. but the practice remains.
12:10 am
>> stanton island in the middle of july, i immediately felt that we had to play a role in this, because you see that this review board has this unique position. of being 7,000 complaints per year of interactions between citizens and police officers. no one else has that data. no one else has that information. and to the extent it reveals anything about the use of choke holds, it was important to mind that data according to the report, the ccrb received it's highest number of choke hold complaints since 2001. but in recent years less than 1% of cames have been substantiated the reason is the rules have been waters down, nypd policy says a choke hold includes any pressure to the neck or throat, that
12:11 am
breathing. >> emery says unwritten changes to the choke hold rule made by police administration judges have left officers unchecked. they ruled in order for choke holds to be a violation. there has to be actual interference, and the police officer had to intend to choke the person. so that changes the rule dramatically. and as a rack call matter that meant the ccrp and the prosecutors were no longer charging choke holds under the rule which was much more confusing or misclassifying choke holds. the result, nypd officers are using more choke holds without being
12:12 am
disciplined. emery says the new report can help alleviate the problem. >> what would be the story in the facts? we have the makings of an early warning system. we have the makings of training people without accusing them, in other words, no individual officer need be accused of being enganged in a choke hold in order to identify that officer, and properly retrain him or her. so that it won't happen in the future. >> what was your initial reaction when you heard the news about eric garnner? >> my first reaction is that could have been me. seriously, for me, i was tearing up when i thought about i was in the same predicament. i knew his fear. for that person to die of that, it is just a shame.
12:13 am
when i really think about it, it makes me cry, because i have been in that situation. and i know the fear that he must have felt. the not knowing why this is happening to me. >> what do you hope to accomplish. >> they beat me up. i have been in routine stops and this is nothing routine at all. sara you had talked to angel before the decision of the grand jury was made public, i am wondering if he had any reaction since then? what he had said is the entire situation, from
12:14 am
the death, to the grand jury is tragic. he really had no other words to say, nothing else to con vie that he just felt a very severe feeling of disappointment, but overall, he just said the whole situation was tragic he did seem very very emotional, another thought are the demonstrations that have been taking place can you tell us anything about the emotion you are seeing out there? >> right now it is relatively quiet, i am at the square where you saw a lot of protestors before, they have sin moved on, what we do see is a surge of police. a number of law enforcement here, you request hear a number of sirens and a few helicopters. so right now protestors are scarce, but something is gearing up. >> sara standing by for us, thank you very much. >> another view now on what has happened in new york city.
12:15 am
turn now to former commissioner when you say look, the mayor has thrown us under the bus. what do you think about that. >> i can't answer for the mayor. it is obviously the union's job to support members and i think that's what they are doing. my focus, more importantly, would be on what the grand jury decided. and that was to not indict the officer. the grand jury saw the evidence, the mayor didn't see the evidence. >> look, it is evidence that he is being held, conined in some way, with you want to call it a choke hold or not, and there are a number of officers on him, it is very difficult for a lot of people to understand how that can possibly be justified.
12:16 am
>> you less you have been in the position they are in, once an officer gives you a lawful order that you are under arrest, you must comply. and in this circumstance mr. garner did not comply. i have said this before, i will say it now, i believe from the bottom of my heart, if this man had complied with the officers arrest order, he would be alive today and it's unfortunate. >> obviously you have seen this from the position of law enforcement, i am sure you have been in plenty of grand juries sessions and heard how those are carrying out, a lot of people feel that there must have been something in the way the case was portrayed to the grand jury, they would choose not to indict much as the came say as we have seen in ferguson, there is suspicious we will never really know, had this come to trial that might have made a difference in public perception.
12:17 am
>> i think we are get a pretty good perception of what they were presented with, what they heard, and like i said, we don't know. they watched the video, they heard from other witnesses i understand, several. in that case they got a lot more information than i have, and that's how they made the decision. >> and you won't second guess that. >> i can't second guess it. not a this point, no. >> former nypd police commissioner thank you for being with us. >> thank you. when we return, another view of justice, a black teen, and another officer involved shooting. >> he was shot through the door, one of my end froms still shooting through the door. >> will the aftermath of cameron's death be the next flash point of fury between p cos and their communities. later in hour, the scam of the century, the
12:18 am
inseeder who helped bring down bernie may doff and how she helped to expose the largest fraud in u.s. history. >> a dirty deal. struck at the heart of government. >> egypt mismanaged its gas industry. >> taking the country to the brink of economic ruin. >> it's obvious that egypt was being ripped off. it's basically saying to the israelis, "look if you want to screw us, here's a tool you can use to screw us". >> al jazeera exposes those who made a fortune betraying an entire nation. >> you don't feel that you owe an explanation to the egyptian people? >> no... no... >> al jazeera investigates. egypt's lost power. december 17th. 10:00 eastern. on aljazeera america.
12:19 am
>> my name is elenor and for the last 25 years i was bernie madoff's secretary.
12:20 am
>> an unimaginable story of betrayal. >> they lived this incredible life. it just never occurred to me that they were living on the dime of the clients. >> greed... >> bernie was stealing every nickel but he wasn't trading anything. >> ... and entitlement. >> you took my grandchildren's future away from them. since ferguson, and the fury ignited by the police shooting we have marry in cities both large and small. right now, of course, the anger is centered in new york after eric garner's death and the decision not to indict the officer. and it may ignite in cleveland, where 12-year-old was gunned down by an officer too, in a community not far from new orleans, the death of a teenager who answered a door and faced officers drawn and firing america tonight found a different outcome.
12:21 am
>> we have braking news where a teenager was shot and killed by a sheriffs deputy tonight. >> september 23rd, 2014. >> the encounter leading up to this shooting are -- that's still under investigation at this hour. >> six weeks after the death of michael brown in ferguson missouri. cameron a high school freshman aged 14 with a 3.7 grade point average, a talented athlete with no reputation for trouble, and no record, shot dead on a tuesday afternoon. >> one of the neighbors she came banging on my door, like tika, open the door. it was a knock that sock me to my knees. the cry, that she did, hurry. she said, cameron has
12:22 am
been shot. and i said girl, not my cameron. that's not cameron, girl. >> she said let's go see. i seen the neighborhood kids, outside and it was like cameron been shot. and owe just fell to the ground in disbelieve. >> so that tuesday, just after 5:00 o'clock, it is daylight, someone make as 9-1-1 call and says she has seen armed men with guns. shortly after two pull up they get out of the car say people here with their weapons drawn, they walk along the sidewalk, and into that carport. almost everything that happens after that is in dispute. the house where cameron died has been empty for two years. local kids with the approval of the owner have been using it as an after school hang out.
12:23 am
>> this is a knock on the door, to cameron got up to answer the door. >> he thought it was his little girlfriend coming over, because they had just finished texting each other. >> the parish sheriff insists his officers identified themselves when they knocked on the door. we were on our phones playing around. >> andre has tried to lose himself on the basketball court. like the three over there, andre says the police knocked, didn't identify themselves, and when cameron came to the door, opened fire. all i seen, i just heard shots four or five times.
12:24 am
and i just seem him stumble and everything. >> he got shot through the door, one of my friends tried to close it, and they were still shooting. the local sheriff says cameron opened the door with a gun in his hand, later say a b-b gun was found in close proximity to his body. point at a gun in at police, he didn't have a gun in his hand, period. >> there was a b-b gun there, but they say it was on the table not in his hand. >> this cell phone video was shot by neighbors in the minutes afterwards. the events leading up are disturbing enough, but what happened after raising even more questions. in the upper right corner you can see officers leading away the other teens. they were held in custody for five hours and never charged. conditionses say cameron
12:25 am
was still on the floor of the kitchen. >> and there was no ambulance, and no paramedics. some witnesses say they saw the two sheriffs deputies arguing in the drive way after the shooting. >> they never got his body. >> she is representing cameron's family. >> they didn't get him medical assistance, from my understanding he was alive at least for what about 45 minutes after he had been shot and the police did not provide any type of medical assistance for him during that time, because they were so busy trying to cover up what had happened. >> the parish sheriff has called what happened a problem accident, but has not explained the behavior of his deputies in the hours after he was shot, neighbors shocked gather in the street as rumor went through the crowds that the officer that killed the 14-year-old was white,
12:26 am
and anger rose. >> that's the first thing that came to our minds we hope this isn't a racial situation. >> nonnavy is a parish councilman, and coincidentally a guidance counselor at his high school. he was at the scene that night people were angry. >> some were, some of the rumble that you were hearing there throughout the crowd was that it was a white police officer that shot a black kid, so immediately, of course, the overtone was kind of directed in a negative way and people were getting upset about that. >> detectives out this, you have the sheriff department, and hundreds of residents so it could have turned into -- it could have turned into a bad situation. >> that deputy only identified as an african-american male, late that night, the sheriff made an
12:27 am
announcement, in fact the officer preston norman a seven year veteran was african american. >> it was a black cop, it was a black 9-1-1 caller. and i said, who cares. what color he is or what color the caller was, it didn't matter to me, you shot a 14-year-old kid i didn't care what he was, and i don't know why he emphasized that he was black. it didn't make a difference. for the community this was not about race, it was about bad policing. >> our kids are targeted more than other kids. this side of town, which is more of your urban side, the police harass our kids. >> what do we want. >> justice. >> when do we want it. >> now.
12:28 am
>> it isn't even a color thing, everybody should be effected by that, it is about a child. >> the night of the shooting the sheriff handed the case over to louisiana state police since then the family has heard very little. >> do you have confident in the police investigation. >> absolutely not. the police as of today's date have not interviewed any of those young men. the only contact says family and neighbors this search warranted issued for the other teens in the house that day, demanding fingerprints and dna. >> have investigators spoken to andre. >> no, they wanted dna that's it. they spoke with andre the night it happened but they released him. >> didn't ask about what happened at the house. >> no, ma'am. >> the fbi says they have monitoring the investigation, but they say it is time for the federal department of justice to carry out
12:29 am
their own investigation. >> the justice department could have a separate investigation, and it can make a difference to making sure that the local people are doing what they say that they are doing that they are conducting a fair investigation as it retts to getting to the truth of why the deputy sheriff shot 14-year-old cameron tillman. when he did not have a gun in his hand. >> this is a memorial outside the house on kirk glen loop, where cameron dies so people have been coming and bringing candles and balloons. >> yeah. >> the boys make sure they keep it up. keep it up every day. >> what would you like the people who are investigating the killing to know. >> our lives changed forever cameron can be that athlete, football player, he wanted to be.
12:30 am
he wanted ton arn, he can't be that now, it was stolen from him. this is torture. it is pure torture every day, it is a constant stabbing every single day i have to think about it and relive that. >> as cameron's mother, and the community wait for justice, there is also fear the kids are really really scared. one of the kids came up to me, like what is going to happen, like am i going to make it to 18. >> i was speech less. i didn't know what to tell him. >> what do we want. >> justice. >> america tonight rejoins us here, it seems like you should have at this point weeks after this inc. man's death, more details about what happened here. >> as we have seen in so
12:31 am
many cases where there are 9-1-1 calls where there's a damage, where you at least get the initial report, we have asked for all of those things they are all and should be in the public domain. but in louisiana, the state police are saying no, it is part of the investigation, so we won't release them. >> what is happened to the officer in this case. >> well that's even more interesting. several weeks ago, the officer was permitted to return to duty, paid work. he had been on administrative leave as is common. sheriff said come back to work, at a complaint that deputy was placed back on administrative leave, with the understanding that he should not be the sheriff should not be prejudges the results of the investigation an investigation, to date, has yet to talk to any of the young teens that are in that house and saw what happened. we have seen in other cases of course, in ferguson, now in new york in the garner case that
12:32 am
the department of justice, the featural department is looking in and making their own investigation, have we seen any evidence of that. >> the doj told us they were monitoring the investigation, and they are assessing whether or not a federal a separate federal investigation is warranted in addition to that, we will keep asking questions because there's too many gaps in the public record and too many conflicting stories. and when an ambulance was apparently summoned. >> thank you when we return, sexual assault in the service. >> the josh when we went in is we were there to defend the constitution that doesn't apply to us and to some degree you have to kind of accept that. >> america tonight's on the new blockbuster results of the pentagon's near long review of

12:39 am
sort, be treated as perpetrators. >> when she reported the harassment and her first rape she says she was told to put the rape accusations on the back burner and that it can be used against her, her situation isn't unique, according to the 2014 department of defense report, the president of the united states, 62% of female service members who reported their unwanted contact, said they also experienced retaliation, she says the culture within the military made it difficult for her to cope my whole life from then was terrible. ostracized. >> just beyond the calming waves service members come here to try and heal their wounds. >> you are dwelling on what is going on, in your own head, it is hard to relate to someone else, or have them relate to you. >> the men and women in this classroom at the healthcare system are all survivors of military

12:41 am
to hear more. >> in 2003, the facility opened it's doors to men. >> what did you len from the american that joined your program. >> we learned that it take as lot in order for a man to report the amount of shame, or fear, about the reaction of others is pretty profound men are often worried if they are sexually assaulted by another man, if they are married, they are worried that their wife will think they are gay. >> the male survivors only reported their assaults 10% of the time, compared to a 40% rate for women. the hardest thing for me right now is getting out of the house amon do waited 15 years before he reported his assault, he attended dr. o'brien's program, at bay pines. >> six men raped me while i was in active duty.

12:43 am
defense, cased went from 1.2% to less than 1%, for women the numbers went from since .2%, to 4.3% it has been almost ten years since jessica left the military. family is her focus now, while the military focuses on fixing the sexual assault problem, that's still persists. america tonight, you know this reminds me quite a bit of the campus sex crimes reporting we have been doing, where now there are many more reports coming in, is some people view that as a food thing, more people are willing to report, some view it as a bad thing. >> yeah, it depends on who you ask six city 2% of female victims feel like they are being retaliated against, but then if you talk to senator mckaskel she
12:44 am
will turn out the people that are reporting the retaliation, aren't reporting it at a commander level, they are reporting it as a peer to peer level and that they would tell other victims to come forward, but the two of them both agree, that something needs to be address when it comes to retaliation. >> that is quite a lot of people being victimized now what is the personal gone going to do here. >> that deft easley something that will be addressed. there's still a lot of research being done, who the offenders are, what kind of offenses are being committed. everything is grouped into sexual contact, be uh to determine who kinds of whether it's rape or something else. there are four initiatives that have been announce which had includes studying this more, providing more training and afters offering more resources so this process is far from over, still a lot of work to be done. >> thank
