hello, everyone. welcome to cnn newsroom. victor is off today. the family of tyre nichols is urging piece today after the video of his beating death is released to the public. five officers have been charged. they've all been released on roughly $250,000 bond. this afternoon, his mother had this message for them. >> i just want to ask for prayer for my family, for this whole community. and i want to say to the five police officers that murdered my son, you also disgraced your own families when you did this. but you know what? i'm going to pray for you and your families.

>> nicoles was pulled over on january 7th allegedly for reckless driving. but the memphis police chief says she does not see evidence of that yet. a warning now, this picture is graphic. the chief also does not yet know what sparked this brutal beating of nicoles that followed the police chase and caught on several cameras. she says she could not bear to watch the video but did see the aftermath of what her son looked like in the hospital. his stepfather described what he saw in the video and how tyre had to be dropped up at one point. >> an officer walked over to him and said, shut the hell up, mf, you know? and while he's hand kcuffed. so they pop him back up, he slumped over again, they popped him up again. but no one was rendering aid.

i saw some fire department people come out there and they just walked around but didn't give him aid. they're supposed to be trained in first aid. >> senior cnn's justice correspondent is in memphis for us. so tell us what's happening on the ground right now. >> reporter: on the ground, it's just a regular day right now. it's a fairly nice day here in memphis. it's just regular course of business here in downtown memphis. but we're hearing a lot from community leaders. we obviously just heard from the family members of tyre nicoles and the lawyers. they are happy to see the district attorney move ahead with charges, and that they are happy with the way the police chief here has been handling this, but they are calling for more changes, and they are

specifically calling for reform within the police department. they say they need to disband, get rid of this unit that these officers were part of, called the scorpion unit. they say the lawyers, that they have evidence of other people who have had horrific interactions with this scorpion unit. as a result of that, they are calling on the memphis police department to disband this unit now. we heard from the police chief this morning. in her first interview, don lemon interviewed her. she explained how they are looking and trying to figure out why the police in the first place even stopped nichols. take a listen. >> we looked at cameras. even if something occurred prior to the stop, we've been unable to substantiate that at this time. >> you haven't been able to substantiate the reckless driving at all?

>> no, we have not been able to substantiate that. >> that is why he was supposedly stopped. >> we have taken an extensive look to determine what that probable cause was, and we have not been able to substantiate that. it doesn't mean that something didn't happen, but there is no proof. >> reporter: and that's the big question, there is no proof of this claim that somehow tyre nickhols was recklessly driving which is why police say they pulled him over. what we have been hearing from people in the community about the scorpion unit is they take an aggressive posture, that they are here to fight and stop crime before it's committed. for some of the community members, this has been an issue that they have raised, previously according to the nickhols family. the other thing that is important to point out, that

everyone has seen this video, this evening the way the police approached tyre nichols, how aggressive they were, no one can understand. instead of deescalating, they escalated. and we know what happened. >> that press conference we just heard with the family was so gutting. i mean, just watching his parents, you know, have to speak to reporters while they're in the middle of all this grief. and his mother talked about how she felt learning that in the middle of this beating, he was calling out for her. >> reporter: yeah. very reminiscent from what we know about george floyd when we saw that. that is something that has stayed with so many people also who have watched this video from the police chief to other community leaders, to the district attorney, other law enforcement officials, hearing

him just yards, feet from his mother's home, calling out for her. listen to his mother talk about that. >> for a mother to know that their child was calling them in their need and i wasn't there for him, do you know how i feel right now? because i wasn't there for my son. >> reporter: yeah, alison, that is something, like i said, has really resonated and stayed with everyone who has heard this tape. among many other things, obviously. and obviously, by now, by all accounts, this city and the way they are trying to prepare the country for what they're about to see is very telling in just how horrific this entire situation was and how concerned they are for people and what they are about to see later tonight. and as for the city, it's

important to point out, things here are calm. it's just the normal course of business here. everything is open, people are going about their business, and the community and family members are all urging for peace, for calm, and so that is the goal right now for everyone here, certainly. we'll see what happens later on as some of the police here, we'll see if anything changes, alison. >> we pray that it stays calm. thank you very much. let's bring in my guests now. thank you both for being here. captain, i want to start with you, because you know very well one of these ex-police officers who was involved in this beating. you have known him since he was 9, 10 years old. you were a coach on his youth basketball team and one of his mentors. in the days after this happened,

he came to see you, to talk to you. and i think you told us that you spent like two hours with him. i know that you said he was very remorseful. why did he do this? did he tell you why he did this? >> good afternoon. so the answer to the question is, absolutely not. he came in and -- [ no audio ] >> okay. we're going to go to areva, because we're losing the captain's audio. what about talking about, that press conference why tyre's mom took to the microphone. she won't see the video, of course, for the sake of her own mental health, but she knows enough about what happened and saw him in the hospital and knows that he was calling out her name. it's just all so devastating.

>> it is, alison. it's beyond belief. i'm the mother of a young african american man, and i can't imagine the pain that she is going through. i know lots of other people have been posting online that they won't watch this video. some are calling it racial trauma porn, that it is not entertainment. but the bigger question i have, you and i have been here before. these stories are not new. what happened in that community, even though unique to this community, we have seen so many other unformed african american men who die in police custody because of routine traffic stops. no one should die because of a routine traffic stop. we thought after george floyd there was going to be wholesale changes to police departments. but yet we find ourselves back here again, grieving with the

family, trying to make sense of how five, in this case five officers can be charged with murder. i heard one of the officer's attorneys yesterday, alison, say that he doesn't understand how he's being charged with murder. he doesn't understand how this happened. i'm just wondering is he or those five officers that tone deaf that they can all engage in the conduct and not realize that they were engaged in excessive force and violating his constitutional rights. something that's terribly wrong with policing in this country. >> and that is -- those are some of the questions, it's incomprehensible. we have the captain back. that's the question, captain, why did he do this? what did emmett tell you -- emmett martin tell you about that? >> first, let me start over by saying as a father, a grandfather -- [ audio issues ]

>> i'm sorry, everyone. i don't know why we keep losing his audio. areva, one of the things that they were also talking about was this scorpion unit. that's kind of -- i mean, now it feels like this unit of frankly sort of cowboys that -- i don't know. you know, we kept hearing the attorney saying they were operating with impunity but calling for them to be disbanded around the country. i don't know if that is going to happen. but certainly, police chiefs today are looking at some of these units. >> yeah, the big question about this unit. some have said it's been very effective, that they have gotten violent criminals off the treat. but we are hearing this counternarrative that they have been using a level of force that's beyond that, which is allowed by that police department and allowed by the constitution. so we're hearing two sides to whether this unit is effectively

one, either helping protect and serve in that memphis community, or if they are engaging in the kind of conduct that we are going to see on this video. again, the bigger issue is, police don't solve crimes or stop crimes -- they solve crimes i should say. what we have refused to do in this country is look at the systemic issues of crime and invest in those things that can prevent crimes like education,mental health. so we keep finding ourselves back here asking how do we change policing, particularly when we know that so many of the individuals that die in the hands of police are young, african american men. i saw a statistic that police killed more people in 2022 than any recent decade, and that 26% of those people killed by police were african americans, even though we only represent 13% of the population in this country. so we not only have a crisis in policing, but a crisis in the policing of african americans in this country.

>> yeah. something is wrong, and we keep seeing it in this stark technicolor. thank you, areva. joining me now is the executive director of the naacp in memphis. thank you for being here. you know, ben crump just made this very compelling case for how this should be the blueprint. we keep seeing this happen again, but this time is different, and this should be the blueprint, that these officers, when this happens, should be swiftly brought to justice, not just because they're black officers, but what did you think about that press conference? >> i thought he did an awesome job. i was there. i was there with the family, as well. and i agree totally with attorney trump that this should be the blueprint. this has happened too often in the city of memphis, as well. ing with the executive director of the naacp, i gets lots of

complaints about internal affairs not responding to their complaint about being harassed by the police. so what we do need to do is have reform, some sort of action between the internal affairs and the memphis police department and other organizations, as well. when they receive these complaints, these complaints need to be answered as quickly as possible. >> and did you know about this scorpion unit in the memphis police department before all this? what was their reputation? >> you know what? i had just recently heard about this scorpion unit. there was an incident where someone was robbed at a hotel, and the police, they identified themselves as policemen, but i'm sure it wasn't the same people, but they said they had on some of the similar clothing that

these officers were wearing that same night. but this was my first time really -- >> yeah, your first time hearing about them. i just can't tell if they were effective or if they were a force that was kind of lawless. >> yeah, it would seem like that to me. but it is very disheartening to even think that the police would do anything like this. >> yeah. so what is your plan tonight for the community when this video comes out? >> well, you know what? i even went back this morning and i tried to review the rodney king video so that i could kind of prepare myself for this, because they said that this is worse than the rodney king video. in the process, i look back and 50 years ago, there was an incident that happened right here in memphis, tennessee, a young teenager, elton hayes. he was also stopped, a traffic

stop. he was beaten to death by the memphis police department. and that was over 50 years ago. and those officers did not -- they were not charged. well, maybe they were charged, but they were not prosecuted. so this is going to make a difference right here. i am a little worried about what might happen tonight after viewing the video, but i really would just like to encourage our community to please do a peaceful protest. if you're going to do it, be peaceful about it. and i encourage them to do a peaceful protest. because i don't want things to cope going as they have in the past. you know, we said we're going to change, do this and that, but nothing seems to happen. but i want to make sure that this time, as i told miss woods at the press conference, i said, you know, i am a mother. as a mother, i stand with you, you are not alone.

and i promise to do anything i can to help this family get justice for tyre. >> nicky terry, thank you for being here. >> thank you so much for having me. breaking news just in to cnn. israeli officials report that eight people are dead and several injured in a shooting in jerusalem. so let's get right to our reporter. what are you learning? >> reporter: alison, we're learning that this shooting took place at a synagogue in northern jerusalem in a neighborhood. israeli police saying that around 8:15 is when the shooting began. i should note it's shabbat, the sabbath here, so many people would be at the synagogue praying friday night. all we know so far is that eight were dead, several more injured in critical condition. this is a quickly developing situation, obviously. but this shooting comes at a violent and intense 36 hours or so for this region. so while it's definitely a shock that this is happening on a cig

g -- synagogue, it has been tense here. yesterday, nine palestinians were killed. while militants were among those kid, at least one civilian, a woman in her 60s, was killed in that firefight. there was a cascading amount of events that happened after that, including in the evening, rocket fire from gaza to israel. israel responding with air strikes, and tonight we are get thing shooting attack. i have to say, this is the biggest attack targeting israelis in recent years, definitely in jerusalem. i'm thinking back to 2008 when eight students were shot and killed. so this is reaching quite big proportions and this is a big question for this brand new israeli government. prime minister benjamin netanyahu just re-elected. he has the most right wing government in israeli history. there would be a big question how they will respond to this, because there will be a

response. but the question is, what will that response look like under this new government and under netanyahu snen >> okay. hadas, thank you very much. all right. now to another police body cam video that has just been released. this is the video of the attack on paul pelosi. we can now show you the terrifying moments inside the former house speaker's home. so that's next. also, republican national committee members are deciding at this hour for a leader. so it's decided, we'll park even deeper into parking spaces so people think they're open. surpri.

a san francisco kocourt jus released the audio and recording from the attack on paul pelosi. the body cam video shows the moment that the attacker strikes paul pelosi with a hammer, just moments after police responded to the pelosi home. paul pelosi was asleep in bed when the suspect broke in, and we warn you, this video is disturbing. [ knocking ]

>> 2620, right? >> 2640. >> oh. >> yeah. how you doing? >> how are you? >> what's going on, man? >> everything is good. >> all right. >> drop the hammer. >> nope. >> hey, hey. >> what is going on right now? >> whoa. >> backup, code 3. >> before the attack, paul pelosi had called 911. and that audio was also just released. cnn's reporter is live in san francisco for us. tell us what you have learned. >> reporter: alison, so many disturbing details now that we

are finally seeing and hearing exactly what played out. but we heard about all this in a motion detained. it is entirely different to watch it for yourself. in an interview with investigators, david depape walks through every single step of what he did and his intent. it reveals that after he had woken paul pelosi up and they had a brief conversation about what he was there to do, which david depape admits to wanting to hold nancy pelosi hostage, paul is able to get into the bathroom, where he is able to make a 911 call, which he is trying to convey to the dispatcher that something is wrong, without giving it away. so take a listen for yourself. >> this is san francisco police. do you need help?

>> he's waiting for my wife, nancy pelosi, to come back. >> do you need police, fire, or medical for anything. >> i don't think so. i don't think so. is the capitol police around? >> no, this is san francisco. >> they're usually here at the house. >> no, this is san francisco police. >> no, i understand. >> okay. umm, i've got a problem. but he says everything is good. >> okay. call us back if you need us. >> no, no.

this gentleman just came into the house and he wants to wait for my wife to come home. and so -- any way -- >> do you know who the person is? >> no, i don't know who he is. he has -- he said he is telling me not to do anything. what is is your address, sir? [ bleep ] what is your name? >> my name is paul pelosi. this gentleman says that -- [ inaudible ] okay. >> what's the gentleman's name? >> my name is david. >> his name is david. >> okay. who is david? >> i don't know.

what's that? >> i'm a friend of theirs. >> yeah, he says he's a friend. >> but you don't know who he is? >> no, ma'am. >> okay. >> he's telling me -- i've got to stop talking to you. >> okay. i can stay on the phone just to make sure everything is okay. >> no, he wants me to get the hell off the phone, okay? >> okay. >> thank you. >> okay, bye. >> reporter: in an interview with investigators after his arrest, david depape was asked why he hit paul pelosi with the hammer eventually at the end of that, you know, encounter. he said he didn't want to surrender, and that he needed to go through him, because he was there to fight evil. alison? >> the video is incredible. hearing that call to 911 and paul pelosi speaking in code and not knowing exactly if the

police are coming or what to do, it's all just jaw dropping. thank you very much for the reporting. joining us now is jesse weber, attorney and host at the law and crime network. oh, my gosh. first of all, that 911 call is astonishing. but then the video, i want to play this for everyone. it's just been released. this is the moment that police show up at the ploese home. they open the door to a strange scene of paul pelosi in his pajamas and a strange man next to him, both holding a hammer. we're going to work on reracking that. that is incredible. what did you see when you just laid eyes on this video? >> i'm not going to lie to you, it was much worse than i thought it was going to be. can we just set it will debate, that was an attack. we all watched an attack. all of these conspiracy theorys that have come out need to be put aside. what did i see there? the most important part, what

stood out to me is i can understand the attempted murder charge. the moment they say, put down the hammer. he says no. he takes a pause, fires back and hits pelosi with the hammer. that is premeditation, that is sbe intent. to have all of this on camera -- now, the problem, is alison, i'm looking at this right now. this is clearly burglary, as well. this is a prosecutor's dream. but the problem is, this is not going to silence the fringe. i've already seen this on social media. people will make an interpretation of what they want. that is one of the reservations the district attorney had, that they thought this would just continue the conspiracy theories. but i think it was more beneficial to release this, have people see this and hear it with their own eyes and ears, because it's really hard to see this any other way than for what it is, a violent, sadistic, and disturbing attack. >> first you see him tacking

into the house with a hammer. then you hear the coded 911 call, and then you see the police there, wrestling paul pelosi trying to wrestle the hammer away or keep his hand on it. and then the suspect attacks him. i mean, the idea, again, all these, you know, right wing personalities trying to inject some salacious rumors into this. it couldn't be a political, targeted attack. i mean, this completely debunks it. >> this is the power, the difference between reading about something and seeing it. because what happened before hand? people are like, he's in his pajamas, we kept hearing them saying he was a friend. i dare anybody to listen to that audio and say that's not somebody in distress. that video could not be more clear. even assuming -- let's assume they knew each other. you see him hit him with a hammer, and then is on the

ground bleeding. so when i look at this, this seems like a slam dunk case for prosecutors. clearly, you're dealing with somebody with mental illness, but not to the extent he couldn't appreciate what he was doing. i think there are more holes that need to come into this story. there is a lot of weirdness. but at the end of the day, this is beneficial. i can see the prosecutor's concern that this might affect a jury down the line, sure. i can get that. but i think there's a stronger public interest in everyone seeing this, because this was such a politically charged story, that the public needs to see it for themselves. >> by the way, we'll keep trying to get that video up, so everyone can see the moment where police confronted him. even i, who was not looking for a conspiracy theory, couldn't understand how paul pelosi was able to understand the door, and have his hand on the hammer. now i can see it with my own eyes. that is what happened. the police are mystified when they see this in front of them.

and then the attacker clubs paul pelosi, as you say, and then you see paul pelosi lying on the floor immobilized for a long time. and you get a sense of how incredibly hurt he was. as we know, he's still dealing with his injuries. we know that nancy pelosi is going to have a press conference at 2:45. but the former speaker has already told us, here we have the video, let me play it for everyone again. this is the moment police are at the door. >> yeah. >> 2620, right? >> 2640. >> oh. >> yeah. how you doing? >> how are you? >> what's going on, man? >> everything is good. >> all right. >> drop the hammer. >> nope. >> hey, hey. >> what is going on right now?

>> we just froze it before the actual hit, because it is graphic. but as you and i saw, paul pelosi does fall to the ground and he is definitely injured. so we're going to hear from the speaker. i'm not sure what else she can say about this, but it's really helpful that we have all now seen it with our own eyes. i'm told we have to go. thank you very much forgiving us your interpretation. after a slow start to the campaign, former president donald trump is getting back on the trail in a move that will boost his electability. all the details, next. ♪ this is how it feels to du more with less asthma... ...thanks dupixent. dupixent is not for sudden breathing oblems.

winning and losing record over the last election cycle. there was some disappointments last fall. so this has all come to a head. so ronna mcdaniel, they are facing a tough challenge from the california lawyer, a member of the national committee from here and one of the former president's legal defense members. so an interesting republican contest. again, we will find out who the winner of the rnc chairperson's race is this afternoon. alison? >> jeff, let us know as soon as you have any developments there. thank you. after a months long hiatus, donald trump is returning to the campaign trail. tomorrow, he will be in new hampshire and south carolina. before we get to donald trump, let's talk about what is happening at the rnc as we speak? first of all, does the rnc blame

her for the midterms? why have they soured on her? >> reporter: yeah, i mean, you know, the job over there is to get republicans elected, and that record is for sure questionable. the problem isn't ronna mcdaniel, it's donald trump. unless the rnc is going to stop hitching its wagon to donald trump, they will continue to have the same problem. listen, they're all still trump supporters. so there's not a whole lot of change that they're talking about over there. it's more like meet the new boss, same as the old boss. >> got it. on to donald trump, the old and new boss of the republican party. it's hard to tell if his heart is really in it. i can't remember if at this point the last time around that he was already taking to the campaign trail. what do you think of him actually getting out on the trail this weekend?

>> well, my gosh, it's about time. he announced a while ago, and he hasn't really done much since then. so yeah, it's about time he gets on the trail. i understand why, you know, now feels like a good time, because joe biden is in the news and making some not great news. we could probably script what he's going to say at these rallies, the criminal doj, the criminal joe biden, the criminal media, the criminal january 6th committee. we know what he's going to do. but yeah, you're running for president again. it will take reminding of people what that will look like and what you plan to do with that. >> i think you have given us a good preview, se cupp, thank you. the first responder tells the jury that the former lawyer did not shed a tear when his wife and son were found dead. what else we have learned from the testimony, next.

>> his immediate reaction was to start telling me about an incident that happened with his son with a boating accident. >> let's go to breaking news. nancy pelosi is speaking for the first time since the audio and video of the body cam of her husband's attack has been released to the public. so let's listen to what she is saying at the capitol right now. >> god bless you. congratulations. good afternoon. it is with a grateful heart and on behalf of my entire family that we continue to thank people for all of their prayers, that they continue to send us, asking about the progress my husband is making. and he is making progress, but it will take more time. as you know today, there was a release of some information. i have not heard of the 911 call. i have not heard the confession.

i have not seen the break-in, and i have absolutely no intention of seeing the deadly assault on my husband's life. i won't be making any more statements about this case, as it proceeds except to, again, thank people and inform them of paul's progress. but that will be the end of what i will say about the case. thank you. >> how is your husband doing? >> okay. that was very short from nancy pelosi, but she did take a moment at the capitol there to talk about the video, the body cam video that was just released from -- about her husband's she said that she will not be commenting on the case as it proceeds. cnn chief congressional correspondent manu raju joins us

now. she felt it important to come to the microphone and mark this moment? >> reporter: yeah. she was being asked by reporters about the video since we learned that it would be released as soon as yesterday, and she indicated she wasn't sure at that point if she was going to see it. she probably was not going to watch this video, and she wanted to make very clear that she is not going to watch the video and she doesn't want to comment any further about this situation. obviously one that's been incredibly traumatic for her and her husband. she said that herself, and knowing -- she said that one of the most difficult things for her was knowing the attacker was actually looking for her that day, and then he viciously attacked her husband with a hammer and we saw that video released today, showing how that attack happened. the two were holding a hammer. the police, when they entered the scene, asked him to drop the hammer. paul pelosi did.

the attacker held onto it and attacked him. that obviously -- that episode, very traumatic for the pelosi family, and something that they have -- mr. pelosi has tried to recover over this time period here, but pelosi making clear that this is something that she doesn't want to see, she doesn't want to listen to this -- any of those audios released of the 911 call, and is done commenting on this episode here, and of course, her, at the time, this happened in san francisco. this was not -- she was not in san francisco at the time. she was in d.c. at the time. capitol police were not actively monitoring the home of the then-speaker in san francisco which is why this assailant was able to break in, one of the reasons why he was able to break into their home. so here we're hearing the speaker for the first time weighing in. she's not going to watch the video and she said she's done talking about it, alisyn. >> manu raju, thank you.

ukraine officials are reporting substantial damage to the country's power grid following a new wave of russian attacks. they say moscow fired 70 missiles at energy facilities yesterday. this as ukraine navigates the logistical hurdles of getting the newly pledged u.s. and german tanks to the

battleground. katie bowe is at the pentagon. how long will it take to get these tanks in place? >> reporter: the short answer is we don't exactly know, but we are certainly talking a timeline of months, if not, close to a year. the u.s. has to procure these m1 abrams tanks. they're not something the military keeps lying around in large numbers, and they have to build a costly and complex sustainment tail this equipment requires and they've got to train the ukrainians on how to use this incredibly complex system. there's a lot that has to happen before we're going to see abrams tanks on the battlefield in ukraine. as to whether or not there is going to be any kind of a game changer for the ukrainians, look. i spoke to a senior western official last week who said, there's no single system that's going to be a magic bullet for ukraine. u.s. officials do believe that in the long-term this is going to be a useful system for ukraine in defending its territory, but remember, the value of the abrams isn't just

in its battlefield application. it's the fact that it was able to kind of break this diplomatic log jam with the germans that has now opened the door to europe providing its leopard 2 tanks to ukraine, which in many ways are seen by u.s. officials as a better fit for ukraine. they're a little bit less heavy, logistically complex, and they're expectsed to hit the battlefield sooner. >> does the fact that the u.s. agreed to do tell us anything about how long the u.s. thinks this war could go on? >> yeah, it's been really interesting to watch how the biden administration has framed the decision to provide the abrams. they've really framed it as a long-term commitment to ukraine's capabilities, right? this wasn't about kind of a quick fix that was intended to come online and say, help ukraine push back against what is an expected coming russian offensive in the spring, although i think at this point we don't exactly know what that's going to look like either, but surcertainly the wa

officials are talking about this backs up what i have been hearing about intelligence officials for awhile now which is they don't see any signs this war is winding down any time soon. it's what you heard from mark milley last week it's going to be hard for ukraine to push russia out within the next year. >> katie bo lillis, thank you. it's the top of the hour on "cnn newsroom." i'm alisyn camerota. we begin with the violent video that was just released of the attack against paul pelosi, the husband of former speaker nancy pelosi. police body cam video of that night shows the moment that the attacker strikes paul pelosi with a hammer just moments after police arrive. pelosi was asleep in bed when a suspect broke into his home, and we warn you, this video is disturbing
