david henderson, the sheriff is saying the shooting was racially motivated, it's very clear from hisgunman hated black people. were there warnings, emails, that someone should have noticed? >> that's a difficult question to answer in light of what he just said. what i'm initially drawn toward thinking about, is how many times you, gabe and i have had conversations about these topics in recent years when we should be thinking about how far we've come and not how far we've got to go. it's the 60th anniversary of the "i have a dream speech" and it's shocking this man was only 21 years old. based on the number of manifestos he seems to have left and the number of people who were aware of them, combined with other factors, like, for example, a prior history of domestic violence, there are a number of reasons why people should have taken note before a tragedy like this happened, and it dovetails all too well with other stories in the news right now, and that will be over the course of the next two years, about whether or not we're going to begin protecting people from circumstances like th

david henderson, breakdown for us how we go is used by with us here and why the use of the statute could make this case the ex presidents for the indictment and by some assessment the most damaging one. >> ayman, i do think this is the most damaging one. i think the primary reason is because of fani willis herself. i say that because she is going after former president trump the way prosecutors typically go after defendants. -- january 6th indictment basically says, for the good of the country, we have to do this, was funny willis is saying, look, in fulton county, if you create a criminal enterprise and you're stealing, i don't care if it's stealing test scores for teachers, i don't care if it's a gangs involved in violent activity, if you're trying to steal an election, i am coming after you. and it's almost like having all six infinity stones, because it gives her an incredible amount of power inside the courtroom. -- we watched the though the january six proceedings, and if your lawyer like me, you're thinking this evidence is overwhelmingly bad. but how are you going to get you talk

cnn's nia-malika henderson is here, david chalian and jackie california cynic. good to say you all. i can hear you ringing in my ear. that's just the vibe. this is important. this is a national poll. it is a snapshot of the national mood. this is not how in america presidents are elected. presidents are elected state by state. so the feeling of voters in these key states matters more as we get closer to the election, but having an idea of what the national mood is very instructive. let's go a little bit deeper into this particularly as we were referring to katelyn polantz being outside the grand jury and trying to get a sense of what's going to happen there to look at the potential impact when it comes to the national sentiment. donald trump committed serious crimes. 51%, threatened democracy, 53%. >> a majority saying two things. donald trump committed serious crimes, a majority of registered voters saying he threatened democracy, and yet it's a tight race. not only is it effective, it's instructive, it's not irrelevant, it's also a national poll 15 months before an election. so th

david: i don't have anything that deep. i can't say "sam stood here." but there was something to be said about knowing when it just felt truthful. i know the great stephen hendersont it true. instead of aiming your performance, be as truthful as possible so sometimes there are certain positions and body position you have called posture that allows you to tell the best truth of the character at the time. it varies different mites. it could be different. that's what's exciting about live theater. just be open to that change and being able to go with him. >> stephen: john david, it was lovely to meet you. thank you for being here.

called david boyd who lived doors away from the family on their council estate — was sentenced to life in prison. there's been a new development in the story today. we'll speak to sharon henderson'si don't feel as if i've gotten truejustice for nikki. why do you say that? because the way it was dealt with. all the way through the 31 years. and finding out at the court about that he was a convicted paedophile before nikki's murder, and he only lived three doors down from his grandparents, where she went missing. i want to find out what really went wrong in the case from the beginning. because i was always led to believe that i was told over and over again that they're not looking for anybody else. how do you feel you have been treated by the police in all this time? i was treated really bad, i think, because i was the one parent. the area i lived in... i didn't have any family support because i was brought up in care. i had my stepmum. after nikki's murder, it wasjust horrendous because i didn't have support. and i was drinking heavily and the medication i was on, i wasn't capable of looking after myself. and my daughters went into voluntary care. and that broke my heart. sorry. i
