it was a sheriff's truck there, didn't see dash cam video, saw one body cam. he was still, want to make it clear, the car already crashed into the tree, they were still in the stance of shooting toward him. his car is riddled at bullets of them shooting at him when he wasn't threatening them in any form or fashion. >> before it started, they have -- >> kalil noticed and we kept rewinding, there were shell casings before he backed out. they were shooting at him when he was sitting there with his hands on the steering wheel in the driveway. >> and before the video started. >> and also, we only saw again, that 20 seconds, there were things transpired we didn't see. i don't know how many shots are fired before the 20 seconds they allowed to see. shots in the windshield before he was able to back out of the driveway. >> just step here, kalil. >> it is like we against all odds in this world. my dad got executed just by trying to save his own life. he was not in no -- the officers was not in no harm of him at all. just messed up how this happened, you know? for real.

one body cam, 20 seconds, an execution. one body cam, 20 seconds, and an execution. so with all due respect, i know there were a lot of people who thought last week's verdict was justice, and i told you then it wasn't justice. because we still can't get justice and accountability today. i'm only going to be brief because i'm hot right now. but i do want to say a special -- a special prayer goes out to this family. because khalil saw his father executed. but he's been the strongest one of us all. so, lift them up in your prayers. and as we say in south carolina, i know we're in north carolina, to the county attorney and everybody else, bless his heart. >> thank you, bakari. and now you're going to hear from another great civil rights lawyer who hails out of atlanta, georgia, who has actually been in communications with the county attorney for days trying to get this process set. and he's litigated matters all over the country. and never has he been disrespected like he was today. he's going to tell you his perspective before i bring on attorney lassiter. attorney harr

the body cam footage here, as we know, is integral.t do you think of the timeline that kathy park laid out for us, the likelihood that the sheriff's department doesn't want to release this because it might interfere with the investigation. >> first of all, you would have liked to have seen every police department around the country learn from the lessons of even the last week, right, where we had a shooting in minneapolis, where the sergeant allegedly confused her gun and her taser. what did the minneapolis police department do? they instantly released the body-worn camera footage and they happened to make an arrest in that case pretty quickly. we had a similar incident in chicago where a 13-year-old boy was shot, and that police department instantly released the body camera footage. it feels like this police department, this sheriff's office, perhaps hasn't learned from the lessons of the very recent history unless there really is a law prohibiting it, and if that's the case, under the local north carolina law, then they should instan

the family of andrew brown has seen the body cam video or i should say parts of it.e were waiting all day for the family and their attorneys to view the body cam footage. under north carolina, privately anyone with a direct connection to the video can review it. the public release has to be reviewed by a court. when the attorneys came out after several hours in a delay to tell us what they saw in the video, they were very upset, very disappointed because they had seen 20 seconds of one body cam video. one of the attorneys came out to the microphones. here's a little bit of what he had to say. listen. >> let's focus on the disrespect shown to this family. one body cam, 20 seconds, an execution. >> jerry, just to get quick reaction because the attorneys have just departed. the local president here, the ncaap president is here. mr. rivers, what is your reaction? >> i'm horrified. it brings sadness to my heart to know that in 20 seconds that came out and said that he was executed. with his hands on the steering wheel, they fired shots. rounds in to his car. he tries to d

released, dash cam video of hall's most recent fatal shooting. i want to warn you, the video you are about to see in this story is graphic. you are looking at dash cam video showing then sheriff's deputy andrew hall firing several shots into the car this man was driving as he moved past hall. hall is facing manslaughter charges in connection with the fatal shooting. >> these charges are felonies. and due to officer hall's unreasonable force used during the 2018 shooting. >> the d.a. says this case was one of eight officer involved incidents being investigated by a team of ten lawyers in her office. andrew hall is named in two of them. the 2018 shooting and a new fatal shooting in march. >> if the user had been charged earlier and removed from the streets, my latest client would not be dead. >> reporter: civil rights attorney john burress represents the family and the family of 32-year-old tyrrell wilson. wilson was shot and killed by hall at a danville intersection in march. edited body cam video "today" shows hall, now working for danville's pol

i saw that body cam, as well. they get to the end of the alleyway. and he's, again, telling the young man to stop. you know, to -- to turn around. and you can see, there's a still shot with the young man. he still has, what looked to me, like a gun in his right hand. and he, suddenly, spun around. and that's when the officer fired a single shot. immediately after, the officer went there and began applying first aid, you know, even cpr to the young man. there is a gun on the other side, because there is an opening there. and the gun is on the other side, maybe, about-five feet. but when he spins around like that, if he had a gun in his right hand. that could have, easily, just flown right out of his hand. either, as he was shot. or he was trying to get rid of it, right as he was shot. but it was less-than a second. literally, less than a second, from the time the officer saw that gun in his hand to the time that he fired that shot. i believe that's reasonable. i know, right now, everybody's, you know, blood in the water about policing. and i have not

that's exactly what we're seeking, seeking the release of the body cam footage, the entire body cam footage. the 20-second snippet that was showed, the redaction, once the video begun, the shooting already started, which is consistent with the street video camera that we were able to obtain that the shooting had started. the county attorney said they were on me going to low the pertinent part. you would think that would be pertinent, but the county thought that wasn't pertinent. but we believe the full body camera being revealed will show exactly what happened. >> attorney daniels, the private autopsy -- i talked to jason. jason discussed it before we brought you in. but this private autopsy that you all released shows that andrew brown was fatally shot in the back of the head. what does that tell you about the officers' response? >> well, i mean, it speaks for itself. not just shot in the back of the head. you had bullets riddled in the back of mr. brown's vehicle on the right passenger side, the back rear quarter panel. ultimately, the kill shot was in the back of the head. if it's in the

the greatest innovation in dash cam technology. - we're all familiar with dash cams. serve great purpose because when you're driving, anything can happen. these capture the action, and you can have your fun with them too. but the heart of the matter is when you have a dash cam reyou know that sinking feeling you get when god forbid somebody hits you or somebody tries to break into the car or something happens is take away the obstacle of having this extra thing stuck on your windshield. well, here's where we've developed a game changer. we're going to take your rear view mirror and make it better. we're going to put a dash cam in your rear view mirror. because this screen is built right into the rear view mirror. it slips over your existing rear view mirror with adjustable straps, and you have a built-in video recorder. a built-in dash cam. stuck on the middle of your windshield. well, i'll let jim explain how it works. - so, here's what the hd mirrorcam looks like. this is the camera lens. so small and unobtrusive. it's less than the size of a quarter. you have no ma

no body cam video. transparency is everything, especially when there is so little trust among those in the minority. a big reason that the bryant shooting kept people from the streets was that we all got to see what happened. she was charging at two other girls with a knife on tuesday. one got knocked to the ground, the other is the girl in the pink sweat suit. the officer first to arrive on the scene, he did have a split-second decision to make. you may not like it, but that is the decision. there are too many where we can't see that reality. then you say, but why are people upset here? well, first of all, they're upset because a kid died. and because there's something else that you have to recognize. there's not trust between police and these communities. they've been kept in the dark on too many cases to trusteesly. trust easily. they are left wondering. there was another case in ohio in december. police officer adam coy shot andre hill who was a guest at his friend's home, not an intruder. a neighbo

this is why actually the body cam video is actually really important. the standard for the use of deadly force is a reasonable standard and a reasonableness standard based on the point of view of the officer using the force. did they believe that they or others were in danger or that there was going to be, you know, imminent harm and so, you know, even a far away video won't tell the story. what will tell the story from a point of view of the officers will be the body cameras and it just feels to me and by simply working with a family and being transparent here. >> officials in court deal with things on an expedited basis all the time. do you see a reason why the body camera footage isn't released with this public interest? >> i don't. i can see it not being released to the public until family has a chance to see it, perhaps, for privacy reasons, courtesy. you know, when a police department, any law enforcement is given authority to use deadly force, they are entrusted with the power of the state. that comes with it a responsibility to be transparent an
