2:13 am
the front line as if she was the general. so many his troops did in fact get into the capital. so he was convicted of suggest as conspiracy and several other serious felonies getting now just moments ago, 18 years in prison. far below what the government wanted. they wanted 27 years, but he is a 33 year old man. he will, if you serve his entire time, served to be about 51 years old when he gets out. and he did address the judge and he said, i regret that i didn't show leadership that day. but in fact, which he is now squared to serve 18 years in prison for is that he did show leadership, he loved them to attack the capitol. so this is the 2nd, this ties with the longest prison sentences being handed down yet. so the january 6 right us police have released body can video showing the faithful shooting of a pregnant black woman in the state of ohio. the incident happened one week ago. police confronted to key a gun when she was accused of shock lifting. she was shot after refusing to get out

2:15 am
their weaponized being marcy's law, which is intended for crime victims against the actual 5 victims. here's the guy, young and her friends, and so is if it is, is hard list in many ways and it's unfortunate that they would determine who the victims are before any investigation has concluded. if we see officers of understand that if you do not take the time to preserve life, you'll be held accountable, then it will stop. but ultimately we have people like the blended township police department telling us that their employees are or victims. when we saw this officer kind of grub approach that vehicle pulled out his weapon, say get the f out, the car, and he escalated the situation for no reason at all. so he showed his in st. there isn't say it was to use them for us in a situation where she was an ard and harming no one. you know, before we get to training, we have to fire people like office or kind of grew up and we have to indict them for the crimes that they could manage. and we have to set that example. that is the point of the criminal justice system to prevent and it's her future crops were now
2:16 am
to try and cries because we're not holding those criminals accountable in this situation, officer kind of rob is a criminal and that criminal act suit procedures act as a, as a police officer, he showed his event when he said, give the f out the card and put that gun out without any provocation of the candidates, widely seen as the establishment. save for it has secured a landslide victory and single force presidential election time on that shouldn't go. right. and i'm a former deputy prime minister and finance minister got 70 percent of the vote, overcoming discontent of a recent scandal surrounding the long time governing party. the president's role is mainly ceremonial. tony chang reports from singapore. early morning cues outside of singapore and polling station. this presidential election appears to have generated more excitement and those in the post and voters keen to get in and exercise the democratic rights. yeah, i'm really happy shows have you truly
2:17 am
a democratic country and 3 great candidates and the best men wins. yeah, sing up for has really a blossom a lot, you know, very highly technical in profession. and democracy has that blossom with it. i hope so. but from the, from the way it is run, i think everything seems to be open. the recent constitutional changes have been showed a greater choice on the ballot. well, the president is a non political post something this could become a referendum and the ruling party. we're looking also at, at, and electorate, you know, that is more desirous of a political diversity, maybe even some participation, you know, in the one part you dominant state people here. question the success of a city state. that's now one of the richest countries in the world. but the economic development has not be matched by political change. and this selection could be an indication that voters would like
2:18 am
a little more choice. now with the official results and it's clear the establishment candidates. one with a very comfortable monson, tubman son milgar of a former deputy prime minister, a senior minister. now the new president, tony chung else, is there a single still ahead on now says 0. it will be explaining why many people in pakistan are refusing to pay their electricity bills. and it is back to school for children and ukraine despite the destruction of thousands of classrooms and russian attacks to stabilize the the brought to you by visit castle. all the big revolving stones of the gone off shore and the rest of the atlantic,
