..if there was a second dash cam video released from a different angle which was surprising to myself. due to the fact that the initial discussion that we had with the lead investigator with the texas rangers said there was only one dash cam video do you believe had your sister not been an african american female that she would have been treated differently. >> yes, i do. i believe she was targeted in this. i think it had something to do with it, yes. >> she was hold on $5,000 bond for what was supposed to be a routine traffic violation. your thoughts on that? >> i think that seems unorthodox due to the nature of the stop. it seemed to be a routine traffic failure to signal.

that seems a little excessive to me. >> ms cooper if the family contends as they have all along, that she did not take her life, that means somebody killed her. is that the way you feel, and if so, who might that be? >> i think the reality of it is is that this family took the posture that they want to understand what happened. we are not really in a position where we have much information at all, and we have been seeking information to help us get our minds around what took place. it's not a matter of whether or not the family is taking the position necessarily that she was murdered versus her having committed suicide. what the family said and continues to say is from the perspective of the family and their relationships with sandy, that it was hard unfathomable for them to understand how she would have done so when she has so much that she's looking forward to. >> i want to get your take on how she was treated, and whether

or not you believe that may be a contricting factor if she did, indeed -- contributing factor if she did take her listen. >> all we have to do is look at the video. you can see she was treated unfairly. the officer asked her to put out a cigarette. because she said i don't see why i have to put out my cigarette. she responded by way of opening the door and forcing her out. requiring her to get out. i think that the reality of it is is that that was not appropriate. that everyone can see that that's the case. >> the other part is i, frankly speaking agree that when you've got local and state and even national leaders that can speak to the fact that this is an example of a long history of instances where african-americans were targeted

and mistreated by police it was clear that there were concerns that we as a nation would address. >> you are nodding, it seems you agree this is part of the long history of what you see in the eric garner case and the others true? >> yes, too many incidents at which they are occurring, and in sandra's case the fact that she's a woman. >> the history of marijuana, is anyone explaining why it was mentioned. how, if it was in her bloodstream, did it get there? >> first and foremost, the reality of it is we don't know how and if it's there. we know what the autopsy is suggesting. the toxicology has not come back. the other part of it is it's a little curious that that's what they decided to roll out. the notion that somehow marijuana as a mind-altering drug played a roll in or was

relevant in any way to the stop or for that matter her being gaoled is a little difficult for me to understand. frankly, she was very lucid on the scene. she was able to assert her rights on the scene. she was able to try to ask the officer numerous times why it was that he was going so, so far afield because of a routine traffic stop. so the notion that somehow marijuana played a role in mind-altering or change are her state of mind is one that i take issue with. >> do you feel your sister's character is assassinated as the process goes forward, and i bring up the fact that the autopsy shows she may have had marijuana in her system do you believe it's elevated to make her look she's more sinister than someone on the way home

that got stopped, because she didn't signal properly. >> absolutely, it's a couple of things, because she didn't signal she was unapologetic about what she knew. that it trickled out last week. due to the fact that it's a large diversion method to avoid the true issues here. there is a high level of consistency in the information that we have received to date regarding the case which in turn impacts the strong desire to want to have the department of justice involved. we are clearly and unfortunately not refusing unbiased information, and so to have state senators be at her home coming services and say we have strong cause for concern. they sent a letter to the d.o.j.

saying you have to get involved. there's too many inconsistencies here to make the family at ease that we are getting a fair and full and thorough investigation. >> let me ask you this have you received an apology at all from the sheriff's department concerning the actions of the officer. >> no sir, and i have to be honest. it's a shame. >> they have not called you at all. >> well, i don't think that's what she said. what she said is that she's not received an apology for what the trooper did. >> yes. >> we have had to preliminary action with the texas rangers and the da. >> and a final question - will you sue? >> i didn't hear sorry. >> will you sue. >> will you repeat that? >> will you sue? >> we'll do what is necessary. we'll do what we need to do in

order to bring some sort of solace to this family. if it include bringing action to be it. >> sharon cooper and kenneth lambert, condolences for your loss and thank you for joining us. >> thank you hillary clinton, donald trump topping the polls in their respective parties, does it mean anything when it comes this early in the game. we look at what is in store on the game trail for the week ahead. >> it was known as the paris of the middle east. today something stinks on streets of beirut and there's only a handful of people that can help. elp.

welcome back to al jazeera america i'm del walters in new york here is a look at the top stories - president obama is in ethiopia on the second leg of his trip to east africa. he became the first sitting u.s. president to visit that company. he's expected to focus on security and anti-terror initiatives. syria's president bashar

email gate looms lieder. at an event in iowa hillary clinton defended herself after a justice department probe was requested as to whether a use of personal email contravened classified information. >> i never sent or received classified information at the time it was classified. >> reporter: republicans called clinton out on saturday. senator rand paul. >> they did this because they are clintons and they think they are above the law and live differently to the rest of america. i think it will come back to bite her, and already is. >> for now clinton has a lead in primary polls. the senator's numbers are creeping up. he is rated favourably than clinton. he has not managed to shake the national spread. another rival... >> i joseph biden... >> vice president joe biden reportedly considered a run for

the top spot. [ ♪♪ ] >> reporter: some 75 miles east in iowa contentious g.o.p. candidate donald trump held his own event, showing he's not going anywhere either. >> he's not a war hero. >> he's a war hero... >> reporter: after setting off a fire storm with a dismissal of john mccain's military service, he is leading the pack. in iowa trump is trailing scott walker by 2% within the margin of error. >> there's a movement. this is more than me. people are tired of the incompetent politicians in washington. trump's fellow candidates continued to distance themselves. i don't think donald trump is qualified. when it comes to the qualities.

lindsay graham took a tongue in check approached. 202. donald trump... thanks donald. >> i'm glad you reacted that way. also in a bit of the spotlight, muckleshoot, the former -- muckle by. the former government blasted the nuclear arms deal he said it's so naive that he would trust the iranians. by doing so he'd take the israelis and march them to the door of the oven setting himself apart from the republican pack iowa government steered clear of bluster. >> i think a chunk of it is hot rhetoric. the other part is i'm a problem solver i'm not going to make statements. >> less than a week after throwing his hat into the ring

kassig is at 70%, homing that the debate will carry him to the primaries. >> before we go further, look at this. this is a gallop poll in july 2011. mick romney topping the polls. rudy giuliani tied third followed by rand paul. herman kain. newt gingrich travelled by a wide marvel. this emerged on top. newt gingrich. santorum with the 2% going on to win in iowa. donald trump changed his political affiliation five times. the recent being 2011, records obtained by the smoking gun. >> a strategist and former aid to new jersey is a republican strategist. thank you both for being here. i begin with you.

names like bokman and herman are part of the political and historical landscape. is it proof that we are wrong to focus on who is surging and who is losing this far out. >> it's a different race to 2012. the lead seemed to change. everyone had his or her turn, and it went to the next candidate. it's not happened. donald trump had a time on top in 2012. what happened here though is trump effectively froze the field. second-tear candidates are having trouble getting the message out. >> is he freezing the field because other candidates are oh hum. >> he's a train wreck, americans love a train wreck. this is donald trump, he's not a serious political leader, never has or will be. he's saying things that tap into people vis errolly and is out there calling people idiots,

dumb strong names, and he's lining up a section of the electorate of the it will not lost. >> do you energywatching four counterpart tap dance around what is gone on in the republican side? >> yes, i do. you suspected that. there's another dynamic with donald trump. he's a celebrity. he's been a celebrity since the 1980s. that cannot be underestimated in american politics. he's tapping into sentiments that people have. there's a whole feeling on the right, of political sworn 27 march, that it's taken over and people can't say that they want to say. trump is saying the things that a lot of folks, voters on the right want to say themselves. they know is not acceptable to say, and we know is not correct to say. we are tapping into that. there's a number of dynamics at

play. people have known donald trump since the 1980s. that's how long he's been a celebrity. to think that that doesn't play a role in his popularity other people have been just as vial and said just as many horrible things. why are they not commanding this. >> let's talk about what some belief we should talk about. i want you to look at the statistic. according to "the washington post" there has been 204 mass shootings in 204 days so far. in 2015, this article two days old, the numbers kept by a website called a shooting tracker. i ask you - what would be a responsible debate on guns. what should it look like from the democratic perspective. >> most democrats think we need gun safety legislation, even the more conservative democrats, background checks and other popular policies around gun

safety. i think the problem has been the republican party on this issue. the n.r.a. has a strong lobby. >> let me tell you what they'll tell you, there's enough laws on the back. and they need to be enforced. before you say that let me ask you this question. there are 310 million weapons on the streets of the united states. are there too many guns out there? >> i think on the gun issue. it's never been a political winner for the democratic party. when chuck ran the party - you either keep it or run it. you have plenty of gun control laws. there are many states with strong laws. most of the guns in shootings are illegal. >> are you saying that guns don't kill people? >> guns kill people but other weapons do as well. i don't think guns are the issue that will drive the race. we are talking about the economy, illegal immigration if

we say the word illegal. that is something that you get a response from it. debt is a big issue. i don't think it's a big issue in the race. >> if you debate the second amendment, even in blue states. >> here is what rick perry had to say. >> i think that it makes a lot of sense to send a message across the country. if we believe in the second amendment and the right to protect themselves and families. >> what he was talking about was the shooting in louisiana, where a gunman goes into a theatre, and i should add to that again. is arming america the solution? >> i don't think the solution is to have everyone carry a weapon people have the right to do it. better mental health is an issue. that's the case. i think you have to look at

psychotropic drugs that have an effect on this. you need to deal with veterans in a responsible, caring way. >> do you think going in arming everyone so everyone that sits next to you in the theatre is a good idea. >> you said there's 300 million guns most are not used. we talk about a small percentage. you get some nut that goes off half cock. >> i don't believe the question was answered. >> when you look at the history relevant to other industrialized countries, they do not have the problems we have with gun violence. there's a reason. they have strong in-force safety laws. no one is saying people don't have a right to have a gun if they are - if they pass a background check. if they learn how to use it. in order to buy a car, you have to have training to do that. why would we not a training for people to use guns. chris kyle, a perfect example,

from the american sniper movie was shot. he was the most lethal sniper in this country and was shot and killed by someone with a gun who should not have had a gun. the notion that giving people guns will make you safer - a new york city police officer was robbed and had her gun taken from her in brooklyn. i can cite - that's not one. i can cite example after example of that. the issue is that we need to make sure that guns are not getting whether they are illegal or legal. >> from a republican standpoint why shouldn't i be able to defend myself when the gunman started firing. >> remember the empire state building. it was so chaotic, police arrived and they shot more than the gunman. imagine in a movie theatre - we are not asking people to be trained. that's something democrats would like to see happen gun safety

training, so we are not asking people to be trained and we have a bunch of people in a dark movie theatre in a chaotic scenario which didn't work when police officers were in the same scenario. >> you said before that no one is saying that people isn't have a right to carry guns. that's what you are saying. >> no, i say... >> but the democratic party doesn't have the guts to go after the second amendment. they are going after the second amendment or not. that's the question here. >> let's move on. the issue of whether candidates get it. black lives matter came to the forefront. all lives matter take a listen. >> every life matters. and that is why this issue is so important. black lives matter. white lives matter. all lives party. >> all lives matter. he said it shouldn't be an

issue. doesn't that ignore the fact that this movement is born out of the fear on the part of african-americans, that unlike that lives could end in a routine traffic stop. is that something you believe needs to be addressed politically and do republicans get it. >> o'mallee was wrong to back off the statement, maybe that's why he's at 1% he doesn't have the guts to stand by what he says. i think all lives matter. there has been tragic shootings involving african-americans, absolutely. i think race relations are getting worse in the country because the political left the progressive left is out there pushing that button and tension. >> i have one question to ask both of you. we have 30 seconds, we'll be quick. i'll begin with you. is there a fear that if donald trump improves anything, it is by saying anything you want gets

headlines and that's the way to move the polls. >> he's incentivized people saying outrageous things and that's evidenced by the fact of the statements that mike huckabee made which are irresponsible and dangerous. >> i think donald trump is having a summer flinning we'll see -- fling, we'll see when we go back in the fall. in order to break through into the cycle, you have to throw a hand grenade. that's important for everyone. >> summer fling. terra, our democratic strategist and bill o'reilly republican strart gift. thank you both for being here. let's look at other event in the week ahead. tuesday - president barack obama set to address the african union. he'll be the first sitting u.s. president to officially address that group. stay tuned with al jazeera for more on the visit. tuesday - secretary john kerry and jack lou will testify on the

iranian nuclear deal. on saturday. misty copeland will become the first female cancer at the ballet theatre. it could have been worse, how a kiddy ride injured more than a dozen people. and living up to its billing - this time a failure.

>> just because you're pregnant don't mean your life's ended. >> intense pressure. >> i don't know if this whole dance thing will work out. >> tough realities. >> we call chicago "chiraq" because we have more killers. >> life changing moments. >> shut the cam --. >> from oscar winning director alex gibney.

at us... emmy award winning investigative series... chaising bail only on al jazeera america >> i'll have two or three puffs and i'll already have a nicotine buzz. >> a popular smoking some high sees drama during a sailing competition in hamburg, germany. powerful storms rolling through as teams took to the water. the massive wind catching the danish team offguard. they couldn't get the mast down in time. they escaped, somehow finishing third. there are wildfires tearing across the west. kevin corriveau is here with the

weather. >> that's right. they have been out of control. i want to take you to california. first of all take a look at the relative humidity. that plays a big part in the wildfires. notice along the coast. we talk about the '60s. we are down to the single digits. to the teens, and i want to show you what we are looking at in california down to the south i'll take to you the north. that is the one that is causing the biggest problem. that is the lower wildfire. look at the video, and we are talking about evacuations. this started on saturday. has grown to 4,000 acres and we are not looking at this wildfire being contained at all in this area. they don't know the cause of the wild fair as of yet. but they are looking into that and unfortunately over the next several days it will be very dangerous as the temperatures start to go up. we are not looking at rain in

the forecast. you can see it go towards monday and into tuesday, a dry situation across the region. we'll watch in carefully. the other big story happening is the temperatures here across the central part of the united states. now we are talking about 90 degrees in wichita, 98 in dallas factoring in the heat in lincoln nebraska looks about 99 degrees. we will not see much of a change. heat advisories and warnings are, in effect all the way to monday afternoon. >> thank you very much. >> there are new concerns raised about google and your privacy. there's a service launched by the tech giant. it has your android phone keeping track of your every move and may be doing so for years. >> reporter: the camera has watched for years, but like it or not the beacon in your pocket may be giving away more.

>> it's no surprise the phones share our location. these get us from face to face how else will you check into facebook without g.p.s. if you have an android phone where you have been and when you were there may be more visible than perhaps you realise. android is google's phone operating system. it's the most common phone in the world. samsung, sony chances are it's a destroyed. it may have been logging your location without you knowing. google has launched this. it's called your time line. the give away dots detailed entries showing where you have been. in some cases stretching back years. at home and abroad. where you came from where you went even where you stopped off for a quick sandwich. detailed analysis of you. as far as google is concerned this is designed to enhance your life. only you can see the data no

one else. you can delete it at any time. crucially you have to have opted in in the first place. you turn it on for the first time. it says do you agree to this do you agree to that. at the time you say yes, do you know what it is you are agreeing too. what is it that google gets out of all of this? >> google makes most of its money by selling adverts, and the better pictures of you it builds up the better it an target at you. the more it charges. financially this makes sense. it can under you better than you may understand yourself. that is extremely powerful for marketing. >> if you don't like that google says you can dable location services in your -- disable location services to turn it off, or you could go old school. no maps just annoying ring tones. at least you will not give off

any more unwanted signals. unbelievable. there's a fire going on right outside my room. >> a las vegas hotel reopening the rooftop pool where a massive fire broke out yesterday. the cosmopolitan hotel. sending plumes of smoke into the air. most of the guests were unhurt the spa and fitness on the floor where it started, were open again to the public. authorities in bowling green kentucky trying to find out how and why an amusement park tipped over. 12 children and several children were injured. the swang ride was located at the park. several had to be hospitalized. none of the injuries is life threatening. >> residents are upset over the track problem. landfills are too fool. collections have restarted, it's

not clear where it was dumped. >> the streets of beirut are lined with rubbish, and lebanese people are angry to endure un-high genic conditions. hundreds protested against the government for not resolving the issue. >> they are in our houses. streets are blocked. we can't walk or drive or breathe fresh air. >> reporter: the company that collects the trash said they have nowhere to put it. we have a certain capacity that we can absorb in our factories. we didn't have more space on sundays because we were keeping a volume of what was supposed to go to the landfill. >> reporter: residents blocked access to the landfill. others complain on social media about the state of their government.

which hasn't had a president in a year. politicians don't agree who is to take on the role. one says that moment when you realise that these people, meaning rubbish collectors are more important than niece, referring to the government. >> it dispiffed a trip to space -- survived a trip to space and a walk on the mon. the sult that neil armstrong war is losing the battle against time. the smithsonian is using cyber space to save it. three of the most valuable arms are in one pleas. pomp and circumstance are in cooper town this weekend. ekend.

that is the red bull fluke tag competition taking place in moscow. 40 teams taking human powered

flying machines on a 28 foot free fall into the water. they are judged on how far they glide, creativity and schoemanship. it began in vienna in 1992. you may call it a giant step for crowd found, the smithsonian raising half a million in a campaign to save the space suit armstrong wore on the moon. >> reporter: the space suit was once fireproof, with five layers rubber joints and metal rings at the net and forearms to connect to cloves and a fish bowl helmet. steel and teflon helped to protect the suit from dust. underneath there was a suit filled with boiled water to keep from sweating and fogging up the helmets, when suited up. the astronaut spent hours on the surface of the moon.

the suit and the support backpack weighed about 200 pounds. because of the moon's gravity it felt like it weighed 33 pounds. later versions of the suit used on the last three moon landings increased the time an astro thought spent on the surface. each was custom fitted and three required for each astronaut - one primary, training and backup. replicas can be found for sale on ebay going from 8,000 to $10,000. >> by a way of history in 2011, armstrong saying the suit was reliable, almost cuddly. there's a photo of buzz aldrin armstrong was the one with the camera. it had a gold-plated visa, unfitered by the atmosphere designed to allow a moon walk with an emergency back up of 30 minutes. it had 13 layers to protect from

solar radiation. the oxygen connections on the front, electrical cables and one for water. there were woven patches on the boots. gloves and the back. in case you are curious, the suit waved 200 pounds. >> it's hoping to raise another 200,000 that was worn during the landing in february 1971. earlier i talked to retirement athlete about what it felt like o work in the space suit. >> during my career they had the opportunity to do six space walks. the american suits were a direct evolution of the a 7 l suit that neil and his colleagues wore. the only difference is the suits that i wore were not made to be. you couldn't walk. the legs were not designed so

that you could walk on a planetary surface, but the backpacks, the technology inside the systems were evolved. we could do 6.5 nominal hours and have gone as long as eights hours. they advanced a bit. it's a little surreal, the space suit as a personal spacecraft. you are self-contained. it's maintaining pressure to keep you alive. the oxygen has a thermal control system to adjust the temperature. you are alone, out there, waving to your buddies, three feet away through the back window. you are pretty much on your own, you and your partner, physical, working against the pressure of the group. you have to exert energy. astronauts have personal trainers to take us through weightlifting and resistance exercises and aerobic exercise to make sure we have the

endurance to do it. you are outside in a space suit as opposed to a spacecraft. you worry about leaks. there may be a leak in a joint where your glove connects or your helmet collects. you worry about micromedia. spacecraft are shielded. tiny rocks going at $70,000 miles per hour, can are youin your day. it's a concern. no astronaut has been hit by a micrometed yore i had. we hope it conditions. our at a somewhat elevated list. >> the commandser logged over 229 days in space. four new names joining the line-up in the baseball hall of fame. the list of inductees including randy johnson, and three others.
