i also want to bring back attorney bakari sellers and paul callen.to play the video one more time. let's watch it. it's very disturbing. let's watch it and then we'll assess. >> stop, stop right [ bleep ] now! show me your [ bleep ] hands. stop it, stop it! >> there you see a gun on the ground over there. bakari, obviously difficult to watch. painful to think a little 13-year-old boy was shot in the process. what's your initial reaction to when you watch that video? >> i mean, it's sad. it's exhausting having to go through this again. you know, talking off air, i wish we were here under different circumstances. there's no doubt that there is a problem in chicago. there is no doubt that the guns that flow into chicago from indiana is a problem and has been a problem for a long time. here again, you have law enforcement and you give a command. it's a split-second decision and it's the wrong decision. wolf, let me just highlight something else. i know you're moving onto paul and others, but this is a perpetual state of grieving that we have in these bla

. >>> joining us now cnn legal analyst joey jackson and paul callen. this case, joey, there's something different about it, many things that are different about it and even the 9-year-old who was a witness to what happened knows that the video is the biggest thing, how key was that? >> brianna this is a compelling moment in history. good morning to you. the bottom line here is you have a video capturing exactly what happened here, it was very difficult i think to watch the video for everyone waking up a year ago looking at this -- almost a year ago, how inhumane is this? is this even real? after looking at the video everyone had a visceral reaction to it. what now, what's going to happen? you had a case where everything was documented. not withstanding the documentation of this there was a level of discomfort based upon the history of police being prosecuted. we see officers if they're arrested they're not indicted. if they're indicted they're not convicted. so many examples. new york with the eric garner case. no indictment there. even though he said,

minneapolis along with cnn political commentator the attorney bakari sellers and cnn legal analyst paul callen. do you think they got a clear picture from this testimony? >> a clear picture? i'm not sure the picture was clear. the testimony was necessary. the testimony was complicated and complex and the testimony went to what the heart of this issue and this case is, which is the cause of death. it was complicated testimony, no doubt about it. but i think at the end of the day what chris stewart said is correct, that people should be able to come from that testimony believing that the cause of death was the knee to the neck. you see the arguments laid out by the prosecution. dr. thomas, the forensic pathologist earlier in the day. their experts have been a-plus experts, followed by the medical examiner. the thing that stuck out to me the most is that the strongest witnesses for the prosecution had been everyday americans that go to work and work in county and state and local government. the medical examiners, the law enforcement officers, the emts, people that these jurors can relate to. so t

jimenez and legal analyst joey jackson are with us, the attorney bakari sellers and legal analyst paul calleno much of the prosecution's case hit on the emotional impact of that powerful video we all saw, the impact on eyewitnesss. what do they need to do in these closing arguments? >> you know, i'm not that concerned about the prosecution and their closing arguments, because their opening argument was brilliant. one thing i can tell you is you have to throughout the pendency of the trial, you have to go back and prove every point that you laid out in your opening. the prosecution did that. expect them to put a bow on it on monday. at the end of the day, the world saw this. the video is worth so much in a case like this, because even this weekend while the jurors go back home and they may see what's happening in chicago, they see what's happening further down the road. they're not isolated. they can't escape that video when it's shown again on monday and that video looks like murder. >> that's 9 1/2 minutes. paul, the defense introduced theories about what could have led potentially to floyd'

ground in minneapolis along with cnn political commentator bakari sellers and legal analyst paul callen. >> it certainly doesn't just contradict the prosecution's expert witnesses, and there were so many of them, it contradicts what we heard from chauvin's police chief, right? >> yeah. i have to agree with my good friend, chris stewart, on this one. this expert wasn't up to par today. he wasn't decisive. he wasn't commanding of the courtroom. he didn't have the same charisma you saw a lot of those experts have last week. i'm not sure he scored any points for the defense in this case. and if the defense is going to have any semblance of success next week when this trial goes back to the jury, they're going to have to do a lot better job than the expert we saw today. there were so many times that he came out and stated something with some hesitancy, a lack of certainty only to completely backpedal, like dion sanders when questioned by the prosecution. i think today -- you couple that with showing george floyd's last interaction. today was a day when you throw your hands up and simply don'

a lot of advisory teams coming into broker/dealers, not just the big ones, i happen to like callen, ie jeffries they're incredibly cheap relative to their prospects. >> all right, anton schutz, thank you for the breakdown of the banks. always good to have your expertise. have a good day. >>> one of the members of the panel that the fda authorize the johnson & johnson vaccine joins us to explain why he says the pause in treatments is actually the right move >>> first, as we head out to break, some of your other top stories. the u.s. chamber of commerce is urging senate members to oppose a democratic-backed voting rights bill. the group says the bill which updates voting procedures and states that turn over the redrawingch congressional district lines to independent commissions would punish corporations and associations that engage in political adv advocacy >>> prudential financial is reportedly exploring selling a majority of its retirement business that that's a report from bloomberg the company is working to find potential buyers for the unit. >>> and a senate committee on travel is

paul callen is joining us. cheryl dorsey is with us. bakari, what do do you see as the prosecution strategy in this phase of this trial? >> i mean, you see them still building the case out here that derek chauvin did not follow proper procedures and protocol, that his actions were beyond reckless, that there was intent there and the necessary intent there to bring down a murder charge. and also one of the biggest things that this case is about is causation. you attempt to see them every step of the way showing that the cause of death in this mat ser t matter is the knee to the neck. today every step the prosecution makes, you see the criminal defense attorney come back and attempt to push back in the opposite direction. people are learning today what a lethal dose of fentanyl is and what was in george floyd's system. you're going to hear that more and more and more increasingly because we do know it only takes one juror to believe that the cause of death was something other than or the substantial cause of death was something other than

. >> let's bring back sara sidner on the ground along with bakari sellers and paul callen. jurors heard this very emotional testimony from george floyd's brother philones. were you surprised the prosecution didn't use him as their last witness? >> well, actually i'm kind of surprised. i was speaking to our good friend laura coates, because this is extremely rare. i want people watching to understand how rare it is to have a witness who is a family member play the role of a, quote, unquote, character witness, for lack of a better term. but it was so powerful, humanizing george floyd, not just being a corpse, not just being a dead body or somebody you saw on a video, but actually showing him being a brother, talking about him being a son. it was a very powerful piece of testimony, especially when you j juxtapose that with everything that's going to happen tomorrow. george floyd is going to be put on trial. the question is going to be asked why did george floyd kill himself by the criminal defense attorney. so when you juxtapose that, putting this human virtue on george floyd

ton let's bring in bakari sellers, paul callen and neil franklin, who served with the maryland state and baltimore police departments. bakari, this was an extremely dramatic tday, hours of argumens with the prosecution arguing this wasn't policing, this was murder. >> i thought the prosecution was powerful, wolf. to be completely honest, this was probably the most well-put together, best prosecution that i've ever seen either in a courtroom myself or with cameras in the courtroom as the world is watching this trial. regardless of the verdict, i want people to know and understand that this prosecution did the best job they could possibly do. on the flip side, even today in the criminal defense's opportunity for closing, it drug out a decently long time. he misinterpreted the law, either intentionally or unintentionally, that had to be cleaned up a few times. i don't know if it's the quality or the attorney or just the lack of facts that are there to present on his side. people always say that it's very difficult to defend the indefensible, which is what i think we saw with the crimina

let's bring back cnn's sara sidner along with attorney bakari sellers and cnn legal analyst paul callen. you heard this expert doctor reject the defense's argument that feinntanyl was the reason r george floyd's death. >> it was very significant. this pulmonologist came, he was very credentialed, he was very poised even under cross. he was easy to understand. sometimes experts can come in and confuse the jury. he was very clear and easy to understand. but people don't need to assume that after today's testimony, albeit very good and very compelling, that this case is over. you're going to have a battle of the experts, because there's going to be an expert from the defense side who comes out and says the complete and polar opposite that this expert said and the jurors are going to have to go in the back and weigh which expert they find to be the most credible or which testimony they find most valuable. today you couldn't put a better expert on the stand as the prosecution. >> did the defense struggle today in the cross examination of this pulmonopulmonologist? >> reporter: i hate to make

former school board vice president alison callens earlier this week filed lawsuit against the districtve board members. stood claims collins is civil rights were violated when the board removed her for her past tweets at many considered racist. collins is calling the campaign against her a toxic political attack. i am a black woman. i'm a mother. i'm an educator. all of these legacies mean that i have no choice but to fight. collins lawyer says she wants a written apology where board members say they misunderstood her words and that her words were not racist. collins also wants all her roles in the district restored within a week. so alison colleges, also among those at the center of a recall effort in san francisco to recall the san francisco school board members over the district's inability to reopen schools now organizer's begun a signature drive, voters in a special election. now, in addition to collins, the effort also targets board president gabriella lopez and commissioner for poor fellow malinga. pardon me for other board members. they're not currently eligible in that effort
