ashley: protesters reacting after police released body cam footage of the police involved death of tyree nichols, other cities saw demonstrators take to the streets. rachel: charles watson has body footage that is causing outrage across the country. >> reporter: good morning. prior to the release of body cam videos showing the violent beating of tyree nichols at the hands of memphis police officers, we were told those videos would be graphic and savage and the videos released by the city of memphis friday evening appear to live up to those descriptions. >> i didn't do anything. i was trying to -- >> if you don't lay down.
3:03 am
>> i am on the ground. >> reporter: in the first video captured on body cam you see an officer approached tyree nichols with their guns drawn and yank him out of the vehicles as he tells officers he didn't do anything. officers threw him to the ground as they hurled profanity laced demands at the 29 you met, yelling at him repeatedly to get on the ground and put his hands behind his back. a few moments later you see nichols escaped from police who tasered him, officers chase after nichols. you see nichols on the ground as he is restrained. multiple officers punched nichols several times at pepper sprayed them as they demand he give them his hands. all of this happening as nichols calls out to his mother for help.
3:04 am
>> mom! mom! mom! mom! >> reporter: despite the fact that officers appear to have hold of nichols's arms, the assault continues, you see an officer kick nichols in the head at least two times as if punting a football. then officers proceed to pass nichols around, punching him in the face and striking him with a baton before he collapses that is dragged and propped against the police car for several minutes without having any aid rendered, 20 minutes for emts to bring a stretcher so nichols could be taken to the hospital. we expected to sit down and talk to the lawyer of former memphis police officer desmond mills junior, who is charged in this case. he canceled on us late last night but did provide a statement. he said mister mills and i will review those videos at the appropriate time.
3:05 am
a thorough investigation of all available angles is needed before providing context or comment. my heart goes out to the nichols family and the city of memphis. we hope all will express themselves peacefully, following the release of those violent body cam videos the sheriff's office said it is investigating the content of two deputies who were on the scene after the violent beating of tyre nichols, they have been relieved of duty pending the results of internal investigation. will: thank you for that report. let's bring in james craig, former detroit police chief. i am sure you were listening to that report and you have seen the video. what are your initial reactions in seeing that video? >> thanks for having me on your show. when i look at that video i am deeply troubled like so many in law enforcement, so many in the community. here you have officers in a high crime unit, very little
3:06 am
tenure, 2 or 3 years maybe. first question that comes to my mind, where is supervision? you have a high profile unit working in the field, supervisors have to be attached. this so-called scorpion unit, what kind of culture is that unit? i've heard bits and pieces that maybe they were involved in some nefarious activity or problematic activity. that should raise heightened awareness of management and supervision. what are we doing? we are talking about a traffic infraction at best. the tactics were horrible. bad tactics sometimes lead to tragic outcomes and we see it in this situation. clearly this is a big stain on the profession, certainly a stain on the department. the chief is going to have to
3:07 am
take steps to unpack all the issues we are talking about. rachel: glad you brought up the scorpion unit. i don't know much about it. how common is that in these urban areas there are these units? how weird is it that there are people on the unit with such little experience? i want to bring up one other thing, i hate giving you multi-part questions, but how much does lack of recruitment have to do that someone with two years of experience is on this kind of a force? >> that is a great point. i will tell you, recruitment issues, a person with two years on may become senior officers in the field, but i struggled with some of that in our high profile units. but again, to offset it, you have to make sure you are balancing deployment of officers in the unit with
3:08 am
tenure, make sure supervisors are attached to that unit, because bad things will happen. what is the culture of the department? what is the culture of this unit? the way they approached this individual, a traffic infraction, clearly this young man was running, but he was running because he was afraid for his life, calling for his mom. these officers were criminals. here's the other problematic part of this whole thing. i don't know how many officers were at the scene doing this beating, this criminal act. they did nothing. they didn't offer him medical attention. one thing i always admired about detroit police officers went officers use deadly force and a suspect was suffering from an injury, they put him in a police car, did everything they could to try and make sure that person -- this didn't happen. they propped him on the car, 15 minutes for emt to arrive.
3:09 am
there was no threat to emt. why didn't they immediately start to render aid to this young man. pete: how do you change a culture if a culture has gone sideways? >> it starts at the top. i have been a chief in three police departments. i was a chief in detroit in 2013. there were a lot of issues. you have to start from the top, make sure it is across the board. not so much focusing on the men and women on the ground, but management supervision. if they are ineffective, not showing leadership, and clearly when i look at this video i see officers standing around what does it say about a culture? you can change the culture. you have to put the right people in leadership positions. candidly, we did it, detroit's chief did it. in cincinnati, when i was chief
3:10 am
there, we didn't have these problems. doesn't mean you have isolated, you will have isolated incidents because of the nature of the work. but it must be transparent. can't just stop with we fired the officers, charged the officers, and we will show the video. it has to be more than that. there has to be a fool on 4 and 6 type audit, to look at the issues and communicate that to the community. that is the way you start changing culture. pete: i will ask a question that is impossible for you to answer, the motivation of what is going on in the minds of these officers. as any layman watches that video and we see him standing up, tyre nichols, kicking him when he is down, you wonder what is going through these officers mind. i hear you wondering that to some extent. is that bad policing? is that nefarious policing? you say we've got to get an
3:11 am
investigation to find these answers. what would you be asking? what would you be looking into when it comes to these particular officers and this particular unit? >> first of all, we take a close look at the unit. i spent the lions share of my policing career in los angeles. i was a sergeant when the rodney king incident happened. compare rodney king to this, this is horrific. i'm not saying rodney king was good, that was wrong, the lapd went to great lengths to do forensic type audits. as they did that, they found problems. when i was a chief in detroit, we had one incident involving two officers who engaged in racist behavior at the station. i took a step further. i started to peel back what was going on in that one station, and we found a lot of issues in that station and we had to change our management, supervision, and that is what
3:12 am
you have to do. you have to communicate that. a chief can't know all of it but you have to be proactive in addressing these issues. when you look at these officers, tenure plays a role. they engaged in committal activity, and the cowardice shown by the other officers who watched it happen, here we are in 2023. you may not know about the early 90s, rodney king, may not know about george floyd and the impact of that. more likely george floyd. it is shameful those issues are not reinforced doing recruit training. and in-service training. it must continue. rachel: you can do training, but i think there is something much deeper about one's humanity when you look at, as you said, to me that was the most shocking thing. people sat around and watched it.
3:13 am
and bought a camera, they know their actions are going to be judged even if they don't have the conscience to jump in and do something themselves. i don't know how we heal that problem. you are in many ways america's police chief and we thank you for joining us this morning. >> thank you, appreciate it. rachel: protests breaking out across the nation as they voice frustrations over how this could happen. will: we are learning about tyre nichols. pete: ashley strohmeyer is here with the latest. >> reporter: protests broke out from coast-to-coast, most gatherings were peaceful, but in new york city, a handful of demonstrators stomping on police cars in times square, yelling burn it down. in los angeles, police firing what appears to be tear gas to disperse an out-of-control crowd and in memphis protesters marching for over an hour
3:14 am
shutting down the freeway after body camera footage was released. sarah carter spoke with some of the protesters. >> definitely not about race. this is about humanity. this is one hundred one humanity. we need to raise our voice to help the family right there, raise their voice. we are out here tonight. we will be out here to make sure we relieve some of the pain that won't go away for this family but we can share our voice. >> reporter: as outrage grows over tyre nichols's debt, learning more about his life. 's family said he was a loving son and father. before moving to memphis the 29-year-old grew up and lived in sacramento and was father to a 4-year-old son. family members described him as joyful, someone everyone loved. no indication that nichols had any criminal record. 's mother says her son was, quote, near perfect, she
3:15 am
describes what he was up to before he was stopped by police. >> he goes to shelby farms every wednesday to watch the sunset. that is his passion. he was involved in a skateboard, but he was on his way home. >> reporter: one of his friends telling the new york times he was a peaceful person. he was considering becoming a police officer to, quote, change things in the system. the nichols family lawyer says the police department did the right thing to quickly fire the five officers involved in the deadly traffic stop. >> it is the immediacy of action, the fact that they moved swiftly to take action to terminate these officers and then we saw the district attorney bring charges in less than 20 days. that sets a precedent, that should be the blueprint going
3:16 am
forward. >> reporter: after the intense footage was released, the memphis grizzlies held a moment of silence prior to their game in minneapolis in memory of tyre nichols. will: coming up, stunning body cam video of the attack on paul pelosi released showing when officers arrived at the doorstep, fool footage and questions. pete: new video of the texas dps high-speed chase to capture a human smuggler, this as an assistant principal at our rhode island school solicits donations to help students pay the coyote that brought them to america. that is next. i'd like to thank our sponsor liberty mutual. they customize your car insurance, so you only pay for what you need. contestants ready? go! only pay for what you need. jingle: liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty.

3:20 am
will: video showing the attack on nancy pelosi's husband paul in october has been released. pete: we are also hearing the 911 call for the first time. rachel: alexandria hoff has more from washington. >> reporter: this. body camera footage shows the officers approach the pelosi's san francisco home october 20th which was the front or opens up 82-year-old paul pelosi and suspect david depap holding a
3:21 am
hammer. this footage you are about to see is graphic. >> how are you doing, what's going on? >> high. >> drop the. what is going on here? rachel: paul pelosi suffered a fractured skull and injuries to his arms. depape used a hammer to smash a glass door and again entry through the back porch, he expected to find speaker pelosi but instead only her husband was home. they called 911 in a tone that was aimed at not riling the intruder.
3:22 am
>> everything is good. i have a problem. >> okay. >> this gentleman just came into the house. >> reporter: the dispatcher took the hint, nancy pelosi spoke yesterday saying she's not listened to the call or watched the video. >> i've not heard of the 911 call. i've not heard the confession. i've not seen the break in and i have no intention of seeing the deadly assault on my husband's life. >> reporter: police say de depape's goal was to kidnap nancy pelosi and break her kneecaps. he's facing attempt at murder, assault with a deadly weapon at false impressment, he faces two federal charges as well. he has pleaded not guilty to all.
3:23 am
pete: this feels like an instance where if they had released this information sooner, a lot of speculation about what happened would have -- when you listen to the whole 911 call, 2 and a half minutes, paul pelosi is a hostage trying to call the police under the pretense, this attacker is saying where is nancy, let me call and find out. is this the capitol hill police? you could hear him wanting to say send the police but the phone is potentially on speaker. you've got to give paul pelosi a lot of credit. rachel: he did handle that. what is interesting to me, you don't hear nancy pelosi angry at the capitol police. some republicans have said this is a big fail on the part of capitol police.
3:24 am
given all the things that are happening, she is very oddly soft with the capital police. will: you wonder why that footage was not released, law enforcement attempting to cya on their own response, not picking up the hints or understanding the severity of the situation to the moment the hammers struck. will: even the officers at the home, it is not clear they knew it was nancy pelosi's home, are we at the right address? they acted quickly when the hammer was swung. rachel: my husband was not the speaker of the house, but every officer in town knew where our house was, because it was a potential target. a lot of unanswered questions. we need to make sure our lawmakers are protected.
3:25 am
will: that is why he kept pay -- saying i am paul pelosi, nancy pelosi's house. rachel: another topic is the border. things keep getting worse down there. i want to show you footage of texas dps in the rio grande valley. they are catching some migrants. this migrant you're going to see claims to be the father of a child who as he is being pursued abandons the child. take a look at this. >> left the kid on his own. pete: no father will drop a kid in the field and keep running. rachel: that is not going to happen. the child smuggling going in and out of the country, something that is happening all the time. there is also footage, are we going to show the footage of the high-speed chase as well?
3:26 am
this is another example of what happened when they tried this. so. pete: this is from kenny county, texas. all of these videos show the human toll, the human cost of what can get lost in the statistics, get lost in a broader political debate, talking about children abandons along the highway. rachel: abandoned by human smugglers. but one mount pleasant assistant principal, stephanie harvey, in rhode island, says these human smugglers are actually people who help people. a group who help people. will: in this particular school, there is a kid who still owes money back to the cartels. they want their money. rachel: indentured servitude in our own country.
3:27 am
will: the assistant principal sent an e-mail out to the daily caller asking for money to help the student pay the coyote. saying we have a student who came to america with coyote, which is a group that helps people. this group gives you a timeframe to make a payment of $5,000. our student needs are urgent, support to raise another 2,000. is there such a lack of awareness that they think coyotes are a group, good people who help people. what a massive disconnect in the reality. will: the school district confirms validity of that e-mail. email. i can't confirm the email, the principal took steps to have a retraction issued when he learned of the e-mail. the province publix will district is investigating. rachel: this kid comes, says i have a problem. i have to come up with $2000, the assistant principal wanting
3:28 am
to help this child. this is a criminal activity. she goes and tries to crowd fund among her fellow teachers for this child. when this came out, they said the principal said this was fake e-mail. other teachers confirmed it. some of these teachers said this sounded like one of those e-mails, this nigerian prince, $2,000, they were not sure what to make of it. it really is happening. that she would refer an assistant principal of a school, referred to coyotes as a group who wants to help people, these are people who leave children abandons in the bill of the desert with no water, no food, because they are a burden on the trip to the us. they don't care what happened to these kids, they don't care that they are extorting a child in rhode island for $2000. pete: that line is the no worthiness of this story. you called it indentured
3:29 am
servitude a moment ago. it is -- it tears at your heart, a child that is indebted to the drug cartel looking to wonder how to pay this back and what are the consequences if i don't shovel thousands of dollars back to the cartel. the teacher only sees it through the lens of empathy and says this is a group that helps people and this illegal immigration is one big heartfelt operation. will: this is one e-mail, one child, one school. imagine how many schools across america might have kids wondering how to scrape up the 3 grand i need to pay the coyote, because we have seen cartel violence come to our side of the border. living under the threat of possible violence, they are here illegally, where are their parents. rachel: this young man, we don't know who he is but he more than likely came along and knows what happened to these families, one last point i want to make, those coyotes, there
3:30 am
are hundreds of thousands of americans who die at the hands of these coyote, human and drug smugglers. they are not the people helping people. i want to make that very clear. pete: is the biden at menstruation gambling your retirement savings in the name of climate change, that is what 25 states think coming up. ♪ i love the confidence. i love that i can blast this beautiful smile and make the world smile with me. i would totally say aspen dental changed my life. aspen dental makes new smiles affordable. right now, get 20% off dentures. we do anything to make you smile.

>> these are all technology companies, they are transactional technology companies so that is what our foundation is, it's about creating awareness around that and that is why we use what is my name. rachel: we talked about this before we sat down here, every now and then we get tragic reminders of how we want to protect our kids. i have a freshman in college. what other things is your foundation doing to advance protection of kids who are out -- i didn't start using what's my name, now every time i take an uber i do that. >> our foundation is about creating awareness and getting signage out to universities, different colleges, airports that we are doing, we are going to conferences for the chief of

police of towns and university and airports and that's what we do, try to create just a safety net in education because there's no education around the ridesharing. rachel: you are trying to get the government to get a number which they report the number of assaults and murders that happen, but not all of them do. >> there's two main companies, they are publicly traded, they are treated a little differently than private companies, there's 25, 26 companies total. they are required to do certain things. what they reported over a four year period, 13,963 sexual assaults, 49 deaths so what we try to do is drop that number down by educating and using the rideshare of asking what is my name before getting into the car.
3:38 am
rachel: the foundation is having a fundraiser. i want to thank you. i know it is a very painful thing for your family but quite beautiful and honorable that you are taking the tragedy in trying to help other families. rachel: you can visit what'smyname.org and learn more about how to protect yourself, samantha josephson was a senior at the university of south carolina studying political science, she had goals of attending law school and may she rest in peace. thank you. lomita feed is 101 years old. when covid hit, we had some challenges. i heard about the payroll tax refund that allowed us to keep the people that have been here taking care of us. learn more at getrefunds.com. ♪ ♪ charlotte! charl!
