. >> when the officers were convicted last year, crystal says police commissioner anthony batts missed an opportunity to make changes. >> in 2014, batts had two cops under his command who were found guilty by a baltimore jury for taking a guy out of a wagon and assulting him. if you'd taken steps when this man was assaulted, maybe freddie gray didn't have to die. >> commissioner batts declined an interview request. after gray's death, the u.s. department of justice opened an investigation into the baltimore police department. we took crystal's claims to gene ryan, the president of baltimore's police union, just after a membership meeting. >> do you think there's accountability for police misconduct in baltimore? >> there's investigations. there's been almost 300 officers that have been terminated in the last 12-15 years, and that doesn't count the officers resigned in lieu of termination or the ones that have been punished. there's a system in place, things are happening, investigations are done. >> is there a blue wall of silence? >> no. can i finish up now guys? >> what happens to po

the republican front-runner has found himself in an uphill batt battle. >> cnn ice chief business correspondent chris romance here wi . >> ted cruz says he's looking to wisconsin. here's what wisconsin looks like. progressives on the left, establishment on the right it's well educated well informed electorate. look at this. wisconsin has the third highest graduation rate. quarter of wisconsin residents have a college degree just below the national average. it has a diverse economic base. health care and cheese. largest cheese producing in the country. wisconsin has a sizeable manufacturing base and insurance and finance industries. it's predominantly white much like iowa and kansas and turning to religion. this is fascinating. i stole john king's map heefrmts a map of the evangelical population in the south. le's look at wisconsin. you can see it's less of an influence here. zooming into wisconsin you can see there are pockets of evangelicals. it's not an overwhelming part but it is a religious state. 63% in the state say they're religious. nationwide it's only 49%. catholics make up the larges

because he's expected to do so well on the east coast next week but of course, this is going to be a batt battleground. just saying today they'll put $1 million in advertising against donald trump here. you might remember growth advertising against trump in iowa, wisconsin, utah. and states that donald trump lost. so ted cruz does have a big ally in his corner here. and the other thing that trump is doing that's a little unusual for him is he's meeting with republican governor mike pence before this rally in the governor's mansion and chris christie today as well and that's unusual. he's supporting the republican power base. that's not something we've seen. mike pence has a tough reelection race of his own. he's not yet endorsed but said he's open to endorsing and meeting with all the candidates. in fact, ted cruz will meet with pence tomorrow as well. so you're seeing a little bit of a different approach from donald trump, wolf. >> reporter: chris, stand by. i want to bring joe into the conversation. joe, you're in philadelphia. hillary clinton is holding an event there today with the fo

there were some battles for delegates in north dakota, batt s fo hdelegate slates in tennessee. the tennessee thing was very instructive. donald trump won the most delegates, most votes in that primary, he has the most delegates, but he didn't get to pick the people that will those tennessee delegates only have to support him for two rounds of balloting. you look at the list of names, these aren't people that are going to stick with him through thick and thin. >> democrats for a second here. on tuesday in wisconsin, it appears as if right now bernie sanders has a decent lead there. if hillary clinton loses in wisconsin on tuesday, what then -- what then does that mean for her in new york? >> well, it just puts pressure on her to win in new york. you know, it is an adopted home state for her. obviously it is the state she's represented while serving in the u.s. senate. and so there would be a symbolic problem for her if she somehow lost it. i think just sanders winning -- i think margin of victory matters on tuesday. a narrow win for him and i don't know if really a lot of things

the only way to stop the foreign fighter, both the ones that come from europe back to the batt battlefieldingll as the foreign fighters that are inspired by what's happening in iraq and syria, is to continue to monitor the transportation, the networks on land, air, and sea that are going into these battlefields. more importantly, to defeat isis. you really have to continue to take away their territory. around raqqa, around iraq. also look at the broader picture with regard to their intent in libya. finally, there's other countries, including tunisia, morocco that are providing a significant number of these foreign fighters that are fighting in syria and they have access back to tunisia, back to libya, and also into europe. >> okay. i want to go back to -- i believe it was the french authorities who thwarted another deadly attack on their soil. i mean, they must be doing something right. how do you see it? >> i think they are doing something right. they continue to look at this particular network, they're looking at trying to predict where some of the vulnerabilities are. the french as well as

remember batts is still trading well after the friday ipo around $23.ll have american renal up this week, as well as secure works, the dell security spin-off also pricing, but two very well priced ipos in the last few days now. elsewhere on the global markets in what's been going on a lot of talk about china. china was weak overnight here. i think the concern here the markets have been more stable and there's less talk about stimulus. and i think that's part of the problem. shanghai's had a great runup in the last six weeks or so. here in the u.s. you know what was going on with crude prices a little bit lower after that kuwait strike ended, but energy stocks not down nearly as much as people anticipate. and some of the big names are actually positive right now. so we're seeing the markets decouple a little bit from crude. about time on that one. on earnings two big global industrials reported earnings, a little bit better than expected. illinois tool works big in construction, automotive, food equipment all over the world, half in the u.s., half elsewh
