7:00 pm
on september 25th of 2006, dan was severely injured while at camp taji in iraq. it was while he was at walter reed that wounded warrior project walked into my room. they thanked dan for his service and then they assured him that i was not alone and i look back at that and i think, no one could have asked for a better advocate because not everybody got to do what we did. for example, go to a private hospital that was number two in the nation for traumatic brain injury, to transition home and be able to wait for a new home. when you have time to reflect, you realize all along the journey, all along the journey, they were there.

7:01 pm
the news out of the world cup tonight is truly stunning. u.s. soccer says journalist grant wahl has died at the age of 48 while covering the world cup in doha. grant's wife celine posted the u.s. soccer statement on twitter. i'm thankful for the support through my husband's team. i'm in complete shock. we're joined on the phone from doha and christine brenham is back with us and john berman is on the phone. we're reporting from all angels to figure out what could have gone so wrong and lost this tremendous life. don, tell me, what are you learning right now in doha about the death of journalist grant wahl? >> reporter: i mean, we're still
7:02 pm
just trying to i think accept honestly that this is the news that has happened. i was at the same game tonight as grant. i didn't see him but we both covered this extra ordinordinar soccer match between the netherlands. i was laying in my bed at half past 5:00 this morning unable to sleep because of the drama in the game we witnessed and i just kind of checked my what's app and saw all this news. we're literally just finding out about it. we just managed to confirm the news that he has died and i mean, i can't over emphasize the state of shock so many of his peers and colleagues and the fans, also. grant has been the foremost u.s. soccer writer in the country for
7:03 pm
the last 20 plus years. i think when you hear what others in the community are already saying, so for example, the commissioner of major league soccer tweeted with his passion for soccer and dedication to journalism was immeasurable. people are describing him as so kind and generous. those are sentiments having numerous times of the years and i sat here in doha a couple weeks ago at the start of the tournament and to now becoming on here in a breaking news segment to talk about the fact he's not with us anymore is just is really difficult to find the words quite honestly. >> don, unbelievable. five hours ago was his last tweet talking about the incredible match with the netherlands. this is someone that leaves behind a wife that is well-known for the work she has done in well in terms of infectious disease over the course of the
7:04 pm
pandemic. he's grew up in kansas. he was a man who went to princeton university, my own alma mater. the idea of his loss is significant. we was part of our program on november 21st. he was speaking with alisyn camerota and energy and zelle for the game he brought. watch for yourself, everyone. >> yeah, i arrived at the stadium. i was checking in through security but security didn't let me through. they said that i had to take off my shirt. i told them i wouldn't. they detained me for about 30 minutes. they forcingly took my phone and would not give it back, really angrily tried to get me to take my shirt off and wouldn't so finally, eventually, a commander of security came down after about 30 minutes and they let me through wearing my shirt and they apologized. fifa apologized.
7:05 pm
fifa made it clear that there should be no problem with anyone wearing rainbow gear of any kind at this world cup but it's clear that the qatar regime has other ideas. >> that was on november 21st. john berman, i want to bring you back here. the shirt he's talking about and again, it took on extra significance remember, there was the moments of many players who wanted to have as part of their other uniform or display of a rainbow flag within the different housing and the places they were staying and were co-mingling and the significance of this and the symbolism of it just hearing -- this was as recently as a few days ago at this point before thanksgiving, november 21st. john, you spoke about this very interview that night you were on air. when you're learning and hearing more about the death now of journalist grant wahl dying while covering the world cup in qatar, tell me what you are feeling now? >> look, i'm simply devastated
7:06 pm
not only because grant was, you know, the preemptment soccer journalist in the world but a wonderful, wonderful guy who was sweet and he was generous to everybody around him. just an impeccable reputation in journalism but also just everybody that came here him just really adored him and i'm just going through some what's app messages. i had an exchange with him on his podcast and newsletter he had a bad cold the end of november. i said how is the cold? he said i think i'm on the back end of it. got a record eight hours sleep last night he said but then after that, and he wrote about this. this isn't through anything personal. he talked about on a podcast and wrote on his newsletter, he went to the medical center in doha at the media center and got himself checked out and was diagnosed
7:07 pm
with something that seemed to be like bronchitis and taking it easy a little bit but seemed to be on the better end of it and i was reading again, he was filing today. he filed the whole dispatch today in between the two games. the last thing he wrote about was croatia. he says i thought croatia was too old to head into the tournament and i was wrong. and the fight these croatians show is leg gendary. i can't tell how you how much my admire them. everyone that's a soccer fan believes that about grant. i can't tell you how much i admire him, and just it's such a huge loss. >> yeah. >> for the industry but also just a personal lose s for anyo that came here him. >> thank you for sharing that. i want to read the full
7:08 pm
statement the u.s. soccer has put out. here is the statement. it is the entire u.s. soccer family is heartbroken to learn that we have lost grant wahl. fans of soccer and journalism of the highest quality knew we could always count on grant to deliver insightful and entertaining stories about our game and its major protagonists. teams, players, coaches and the many personnalities that make soccer unlike any sport. here in the united states, grant's passion for soccer and commitment to elevating its profile across our sporting landscape played a major role in helping to drive interest in and respect for our beautiful game. as important, grant's belief in the power of the game to advance human rights was and will remain an inspiration to all. grant made soccer his life's work and we're devastated he and his brilliant writing will no longer be with us.
7:09 pm
u.s. soccer sends its sincerest condolences to grant's wife and all of his family members, friends and colleagues in the media. and we thank grant for his tremendous dedication to and impact on our game in the united states. his writing and the stories he told will live on. christine brennan, i want to bring you in on this. this is truly stunning for so many reasons and not the least of which as we read about his legacy, as many might be introduced or reintroduced or reconfirmed yet again about his journal jou journal l and what happened? we are looking to understand why this person lost his life while covering the world cup in qatar. stick with us as we try to uncover the information and details.
7:10 pm
christine, what's your reaction? >> as john said beautifully and don has said, as well, you know, this is heartbreaking news. it is extra ordinarordinary. it is awful news. i knew grant. i covered world cups with him. there is no more lovely, kind, friendly, that big smile that people are seeing in some of these pictures, that's grant. a big tall guy. welcoming journalist to soccer and i would be one of those that need to be welcomed because i covered a lot of women's soccer but not as many men's soccer matches and you could go to grant and ask any question and i've got to say, laura, that, you know, in a competitive world as journalists are as we compete against one another while we also then have dinner together, the notion that you could go to someone like grant and ask a question or double check something was lovely and that's exactly the kind of person he
7:11 pm
was. that might not sound like something that is that rare but often when you're competing, it's -- you might not always be the most helpful person. grant was. i keep wanting to say is because it's just surreal and awful news and terrible news of course that he is gone and again, i think it's so important to mention that he wore that rainbow t-shirt specifically to cover one of those early games at the world cup in solidarity for the lgbtq community. that was grant wahl. he wouldn't take that off. and so like you, i'm -- i think we're all just mystified trying to figure out what happened. i'm sure over the next few hours we'll hear more but my heart goes out to his family, his friends and how honored i am to have been one of those friends and colleagues and i think of the soccer community tonight.
7:12 pm
so many of them over there what they must feel and all of us here back in the states who knew grant are absolutely heartbroken because we've lost one of the best of us. >> we will bring you more on the shocking death of grant wahl as soon as we learn more. stick with cnn. we'll be right back. i was always the competitive one in our family...

we're back with new developments tonight. a federal judge declining the doj's request to hold president trump for failing to turnover classified documents. the judge hold prosecutors and the trump team to work together and that comes at the end of a pretty tough week for the president. the group was found guilty of tax fraud and sources say the january 6th committee could issue a criminal referral. all of this as president joe biden is looking back on a week of reasons to celebrate from bringing brittney griner home to the passage of the historic respect for marriage act. i want to bring in cnn legal analyst elliott williams. former obama white house senior director and former republican
7:17 pm
congressman joe walsh. i'm glad to have all of you here. look, it's kind of the idea of the yen and yang. the good and the bad. enter analogy here. it's been a good week for president biden in the sense of getting a lot of things accomplished and things to be celebrated for a president trump not so much and it still seems to be a continuing list. i'll bring you in first. i want to ask how do you context this? >> his base or the republican party is that is just looking for another reason to keep the story alive that trump is under attack, despite the fact that in this case in particular, if i had taken national security documents with my security clearance it would be criminal behavior and i would have been probably called a terrorist on top of that.
7:18 pm
this is not a fair and equal treatment considering a sitting commander in chief who has a track record of revealing intelligent secret classified information to the russian am basketball -- am baskbassador in the oval office and he has people sc scrambling to redo work. because why? at what point are we going to say that for somebody to do this as commander in chief is not only criminal but should disqualify them from getting the job again. >> former commander in chief when you have retained after you've no longer been at the white house your point is taken. why do you think they're not going to hold them in contempt for this? >> look, there is all kinds of legal questions why you can't hold him in contempt.
7:19 pm
who do you hold in contempt? >> the lawyers? >> i don't now if you heard the term custodian of records at the trump organization, one doesn't exist is the person you would hold accountable for it. so there is that question there. number two, this idea of carelessness on the part of the president actually is working to his benefit. the fact that for instance they found two more documents in a storage locker this week. >> by they? his lawyers? >> he didn't know what he was doing and taking the documents. he has a pattern of losing documents. ladies and gentlemen, my client doesn't have the common sense of breaking the law here. maybe that's playing into the contempt argument, too. i don't know. look, we haven't end the end of this and whether it's more documents being found or obviously criminal charges down the road. it's not over. >> to that point politically, we have not seen the end of this.
7:20 pm
if you're a member of the american electret, republican voter, democrat voter, independent, you're looking and watching this play out and saying, man, i'm tired already. i'm thinking about the weight and the baggage and what this means. this is significant baggage for somebody wanting to be maybe reelected. >> laura, this is just the beginning. trump is going to be indicted next year. he deserves to be indicted. >> you really think so? >> yes, this is just the beginning of two years of a trump storm. he's had a horrible month and a half. with all of that going on, all i've heard from republican voters in the last few days is the following. twitter did rig the 2020 election. trump is going to use that. that's a huge issue. if and when he is indicted, the deep state is coming after me. i think it weakens him among the
7:21 pm
ele electret. >> how about the idea of what has been the blow to trump organization. obviously, he was not individually named and obviously the name trump is on the building but allen weisselberg was the main individual that pleaded guilty but found him guilty on all counts of the organization. the fact it was the organization as opposed to the individual, will people be able to understand the nuance and appreciate it or think about these things one and the same politically? >> in everybody's mind, it's the same. the general electret believes he's a criminal and his base won't make that distinction and they'll believe everybody is after him. >> to your point, this has been a common talking point for the better part of at least four to five years. and millions of people voted for him and believe even separating the idea of election denial list m, they believe much of his
7:22 pm
points are coming after me and you and yeah of protension here. do you think it impacts it? >> he could have, should have, would have been this great billionaire if it had not been for the government -- >> niece darn kids. part of i guess his charm for this base and has nothing to do with the fact. he could be indicted and could be held in contempt. everything could come out in public but it's the feelings will always trump the facts. >> we'll get a quick break in here and come back. we have more to talk about. don't you worry. the question is why is a whole close of citizens in new york banned from serving on a jury? speaking of justice and who is above the law or ente interacti with it? i'll talk to the man suing to end it next in just a few minutes.

7:28 pm
for a 2009 felony conviction. i wonder if you can explain for the audience your situation and why you are taking action here? >> thank you for having me. i appreciate that. my -- i got involved with this issue when i was a student a colombia university in my under grat graduate where i received a jury summons. i was excited to go through that process and to be called serving on a jury, however, i was surprised and shocked when i read the jury summons itself and found out i was disqualified because of that felony conviction. that frustrate med ad me and sh me and when i thought of the broader level, it wasn't just me but lots of other men, excuse me, individuals with felony convictions, specifically african american men in the city who are unable to serve on the jury just shocked me. >> i mean -- >> that -- >> excuse me, go ahead.
7:29 pm
>> i'm sorry. >> i'm cutting you off. i want to hear your story. go ahead, finish, thank you. >> that made me want to get involved with the issue. i wrote about it in colombia in a publication because it's surprising that individuals, especially black men are specifically in manhattan are unable to serve on a jury of their peers. >> that last part so important. the idea of disqualifications and in a criminal proceeding by a jury of one's peers to include a possible aspect of a life experience. to that point about the laws discriminating against black residents, you say particularly black men in manhattan. i want to show people what we're talking about, the figures here. you talk about 25% of black residents in manhattan could be disqualified and that's 40% of black men frankly it doesn't take a mathematician to know there is a desperate impact on
7:30 pm
black men and black and brown people in the criminal justice system and what this might entail and for many, looking at what disqualifies one from engaging in civil duties, civil activity, voting can be one of them, as well, it does not always feel coincidental to those who plorinexploring wheres are. what do you make of this? >> this is one of the numerous other laws that have been used that have been sesystemically ud to keep african americans out of the democratic process and i think that's a reason we're challenging this. it's systematically because of the racialized policing in the city and the law is systematically used to discriminate and keep african americans from participating in the democratic process. i think that's what the issue is. >> well thought out in the lawsuit and i want to say a spokesperson for the state court system told this to cnn, nyclu's
7:31 pm
letter and lawsuit is taking issue with the statute passed by the new york state legislature that lays out the qualifications of jurors. until such time as the legislature changes the law or a court of competent jurisdiction declares it invalid, commissioners of jurors are sworn to enforce these qualifications. so i ask you, should lawmakers make these changes? is that the more prudent course to get to buy in and change legislatively? >> there is two issues here that that points out. the first is yes, legislatures should take action and in fact the state legislatures in different states have addressed the issue but ours has not acted yet so it will be great to have a legislative solution to the problem however, the other issue is the legislature has not done -- taken the action now. so as the letter from the court mentions, it's up to the court
7:32 pm
of competent jurisdiction to make this decision and that's why we started this lawsuit to get a court of competent jurisdiction to make this decision this law applied to manhattan is unconstitutional. >> thank you for joining us. i important to hear your perspective and we'll follow this story. thank you. >> thank you for having me. up next, a texas couple battling for justice for their 22-year-old son who was brutally killed while on vacation in greece more than five years ago. we're going to hear their painful story and why they have refused to give up the fight. hey, it's ryan reynolds, owner of mint mobile. it's the holidays and the big wireless companies are busy spending billions on advertising. at mint we' not into wasting money.

brittney griner's ten-month ordeal in russia shows how it
7:37 pm
can be dealing with another country's legal system. some struggle for years when they find themselves at the mercy of the courts and laws in other lands and that's the case for my next guests that lost their son five years ago and still fighting for justice. 22-year-old bakari henderson went on vacation with friends in greece in 2017. after taking a photo with a woman at a bar, henderson was chased, punched and kicked by a grown up of men. the attack was caught on video. and i must warn you, it is hard to which what. bakari henderson died from his injuries. nine men, the majority of them serbia nationals were arrested. a greek court convicted six of deadly assault and gave them no, ma'am -- nominal sentences. three were convicted of simple assault and released. according to greek media, no one was convicted of murder. the prosecutors appealed but in
7:38 pm
a retrial, a greek court rejected a tougher punishment. the only recourse now, a push to get the case in front of the country's supreme court. joining me now are bakari's parents, phil and jill henderson. thank you both for joining me. just looking at the photos of your beloved son, it is heartbreaking to think of how he was treated, what led to the end of his life and what you've been grappling with for years now trying to secure justice. and i should mention for a lot of people thinking about it, well, why would there be the appeals from prosecutors not similar to what we have here in terms of double jeopardy but different where they are. jill, can you tell me a little bit about what this process had been like and where things are right now in trying to get justice for your son. >> so the process has been very
7:39 pm
challenging for us, very traumatizing for us, financially, mentally, spiritually, it's been a tough road. where we are now is we are basically as you said, we had two trials, both of them ended with no murder charges being -- anyone charged with murder and so now we are waiting for the court of appeals to go ahead and submit their position so that we can then try to appeal to the supreme court. so we're in waiting mode now and hopefully they will appeal to the appellant court, the ap appeal -- appellate court will appeal. >> your niece works for cnn and alerted us to the case and it's profundally impactful for us to learn more what happened. phil, i wonder if you can speak to what this has been like trying to navigate the legal
7:40 pm
system abroad but also, have you had any help from members of congress, from the president, from anyone who is in a position to diplomatically help as well? >> no, we really hadn't had any support we felt we should have. we have talked to different congress men. we have talked to our congressman, as well and other representatives and what we get from them is that, you know, they're going to monitor the case and we there to support and they feel as if there's not much they can do right now. but, you know, we have spoken to them. >> i see you're wearing a design he was a designer in part, right? you're wearing a shirt he had designed as well and part of what he hoped to do career wise and follow a dream and it's beautifully designed. i wonder in terms of this, when we hear and learn more about what happened to bakari, do you
7:41 pm
think race played a part in why your son was attacked? >> yes, we do. because i mean, the whole thing started because a serbia woman took a selfie with bakari. >> over a selfie? >> yes. >> the men in the bar took offense to the fact that she wanted a selfie with your son? >> right, yes. so from what we're told, one of the serbia men said why are you taking a selfie with a black man when there are all these serbians in the bar and proceeded to slap bakari and that's where everything started. >> you know, as a mother and i think about what you'd want your son to do if they felt in danger, domestically let alone abroad and i understand bakari likely did what we would have told our children to do, get out of there. get out of there. obviously, you're in some sort of trouble, get out of there. he tried to run. >> right. >> when you see that and think about that, what is your
7:42 pm
reaction? >> well, it hurts. it hurts to even think about it. it it's not a day that goes by i don't think about it. it hurts. he recently graduated from the university with a finance degree and wanted to pursue the fashion industry and he didn't want to go work on wall street right away and we supported him. he had been to greece before. >> he had? >> yes. we really wasn't worried and concerned. >> it's unbelievable to think about where things are. i know you're still fighting all these years later and there is attention never enough on what has happened and it's why it's so important to get people to know what's happened in light of the news we keep hearing what it's like for people in a various and sometimes very different context obviously but to navigate the systems. the fact that the prosecutors are pushing for a tougher sentence, the fact the prosecutors say they deserve to hire one and there is the
7:43 pm
availability for the supreme court to review, have you got indication there is hope the supreme court there will look at it without the leaning by our politicians here? >> i think the politicians definitely have a play a significant role for it to move forward because otherwise, i mean, it's just not black man that's been murdered. so i mean, the fact of the matter is, if we don't get more support from the u.s. and from our legislatures, i would say it's a grimmer outlook. >> you need to have their support. >> definitely. >> i don't want to leave here without his parents telling me something you want everyone to know about your son. i hate the fact his memory or name is in connection with the tragedy as opposed to where i'm sure you know of bakari. leave us with something that you think of that makes you smile about your son. >> his smile. his smile. and he loves sports and he loved
7:44 pm
all different type of activities and this time of year, football season is going on and basketball, this is one of those time of the year we would be having a good time. >> the world cup. yeah. >> he loved soccer. >> he actually traveled over to europe with some friends and bakari was an entrepreneur at heart. every time he went to europe, which was about 13 times he paid his way. he was always an entrepreneur at heart but he actually went to one of the final games before the world cup in europe and they just got in by luck. he loved chess. he loved people. he loved different cultures. never met a stranger. so he was just -- >> well, i bet i know he loved two more things, those are his parents, as well and the love you have for him is evident. thank you for sharing a little more about your son and i certainly hope that it gets the attention and focus it deserves. >> thank you. >> thank you. >> we'll be right back. grandma, how wide are two reindeer? twenty-seven, twenty-eight, twenty-ninine...

7:50 pm
the men's side. so i have gotten sick to some extent at every tournament, it's finding a way to like get your work done, unquote. just a few moments ago we heard from the parents of bakari henderson, who are fighting for the justice of their son five years after he was killed while on vacation if greece. more perspective on the legal battle. elliott and dr. rashaan ray. i am so glad you are all here tonight in particular. dr. ray, i mean, the heartbreak that these parents are experiencing, the hendersons, over what happened to bakari. you have two sons of your own and we have spoken frequently about the justice system here in this country and its difficulties in being navigated. think about that abroad and the
7:51 pm
tensions we're seeing. what's your reaction? >> as the father of two black boys, it hurts me. what we should be able to see are individuals going abroad to explore the world. that's what bakari was aiming to do. instead, what we see, whether in greece or the united states, we see injustices and it's important to know that his parents said this, that we heard the serbians say this black guy. it suggests that a race was part of the equation in what happened to him. we see that there is no justice in what is happening there. the other thing that's important is there are incidents in the united states like with richard collins iii in maryland. similarities in 2017 with young black men being killed. it breaks my heart. >> and you studied overseas. you are a sociologist, a well respected one at that, and thinking about the ways you tried to navigate and train and educate about issues like implicit and explicit bias and
7:52 pm
how it finds its way into our justice and legal systems. in terms of the international component, there is a feeling of unsafety, a feeling that there will not be protection overseas. can you speak to that? >> definitely. i spent a long time, teaching at the university in germany. he traveled around europe. one of the things that we see in the european context and other parts of the world that our americanness as black people is not the same as white people. people have to ask themselves how much they have heard about this particular story about bakari. and i think without segments like this people would not know about it. i think it's important to know. as i traveled abroad, one of the things that i really noticed is that there are things we simply cannot do. you are supposed to spend your money, have a good time. we don't see that happening. people's marginalization is heightened whether you are in the united states, in greece or
7:53 pm
even in another country. >> so true. and i want to bring in you as well. you were at the state department as well and one of the things we heard about from whether it's the hendersons, talking about needing to have the invest the involvement by politicians to what happened with brittney griner and conversations around what happened when they have the ear of the president of the united states to even shanquella robinson, who was killed in mexico found on conscious in the villa after traveling with college friends. the spotlight that is required to be a catalyst internationally very, very apparent. >> advocacy works in these situations. it tends to be biased to highlighting particular stories as if most americans would empathize with a young white woman dying in aruba as opposed to a young black woman being killed somewhere else. americans have a reputation
7:54 pm
overseas when we travel being carefree, naive about safety and security. part of that is also even our foreign policy has been led by white men. groups like diplo noir are trying to diversify our military and show there is more to america than just white men. >> elliott, in the time we have left, the idea of we live in a flags glass house sometimes in our own legal system? >> the challenge here -- my first job at the justice department we dealt with dealing with other countries and criminal systems. a couple of problems. number one, america's relationship with the other country and that country's laws. and you can't just go to another country and try to impose american law on the country. think about things like speech in other countries that might be held accountable in a way it wouldn't here. it's hard and complicated and sometimes you can't get
7:55 pm
