let's get straight to cnn's natasha chen in elizabeth city, north carolina.o, natasha, everyone involved there knows the body cam footage exists and everyone involved insists that the public should see it. so, tell us what the hold-up is. when will we see more? >> reporter: yeah, pamela, that's what everyone wants to know, when will we see more? and a lot of them are comparing this situation here to other police use of force cases around the country where they've seen body camera footage released a lot more quickly than this. and the sheriff had to explain that in north carolina, here, it involves a court order for footage like that to be released, so it's requiring a lot more patience from people, including elizabeth city officials who, by the way, are not involved at all in this incident because it was not their jurisdiction, but they are very concerned about this, of course, from brown's family, who gave a press conference today, and from the community at large. many people who have been marching peacefulfully through the city the last few days, including

cnn's natasha chen has more. >> reporter: you're about to see video from three angles, from the bodyorn by two windsor, virginia, police officers and from the personal cell phone of a man they pulled over. a man who happens to be black and latino, as well as a lieutenant in the u.s. army. a warning, some of this may be difficult to watch. cara nazario is suing the two officers involved. 6:30 p.m., december 5th, 2020, lieutenant driving through the small town of wind ysor, virgin, saw flashing lights in his rear view mirror. according to his lawsuit, he slowed down, putting his blinker on indicating his intention to pull over but didn't do so for a minute and 40 seconds, which was to find a well lit area. hearing the commands sitting in his car, he began recording from his own cell phone and put his hands out the window. officer crocker had not seen the temporary license plate taped to the back window of the chevrolet tahoe, and seeing tinted windows, crocker decided it was a high risk traffic stop. but this was never explained to nazario who for several minutes continued to ask why h

cnn's natasha chen is in elizabeth city, north carolina right now. natasha brown's family met with the local sheriff friday but they were not shown the footage. natasha, do we know why? >> reporter: we don't, actually. the sheriff, tommy wooten in pasquotank county explained to the media he'd like to protect the integrity of the investigation. that has caused a rising level of frustration among the public and especially the family, many of whochl are here behind us right now ready to give a press conference, which is why i'm speaking a little lower in the background here. but earlier today we also hear from city officials in elizabeth city. again, not their jurisdiction here. not elizabeth city police who were involved at all on wednesday. but they are also participating in helping, you know, represent their citizens and request this body camera footage. the city manager spoke earlier about his feelings when he first heard this happen on wednesday. >> when this first happened as an african-american man and father who's raising a son it felt like yet

. >> natasha chen, cnn, atlanta. >>> hello, again, everyone. thank you for joining me. i'm fredricka whitfield, and we begin this hour with more questions swirling around the deadly shooting of a black man in north carolina. this morn, elizabeth city officials are revealing that they don't have any details about what happened wednesday morning to andrew brown jr. officials are making a clear distinction that the shooting and the warrants involved, county sheriff deputies and not the city's police force, but the sheriff's county's office is tight lipped about the shooting of brown, and nor has the county released any body camera footage, and calls for the release of that footage is calling louder, and the governor is tweeting that he calls for the footage to be released as quickly as possible. and there is an emergency council meeting to have that released as quickly as possible, and the request will be formally filed monday. natasha chen was at that briefing involving the city mayor and manager, and natasha, the family of andrew brown is expected to hold a press confere

cnn's natasha chen joining me now. what did the governor have to say?d yet another press conference to defend this voting law that was recently passed. he said the narrative by some democrats calling this jim crow on steroids was false and he said that's a big lie on steroids. now, this law has been criticized for may being it harder for minorities to vote, especially in urban areas, but governor kemp's point here today was that mlb's decision to pull the all-star game out of georgia has disproportionately hurt minorities and minority-owned businesses. here's what he said. >> these are the same minority businesses that are now being impacted by another decision that is by no fault of their own. and it's being moved to a city -- or from a city and a metro area that is 51% african-american, to a city that is 10% african-american. so who is getting screwed in this? it is the little guy and it's the minority-owned businesses.
