. >> do you know any of the answers to that chris stewart?>> we can't hear you. >> i said do you know the answer what he was serving time for, why he was in jail? >> he had previously been arrested for outstanding child support warrants issued by the court. he had one incident i believe in '87 an arrest. for the past 20 years, it has just been child support issues. >> le servehe had served in the coast guard, right? >> he was honorably discharged from the coast guard. i want to make one thing clear, even looking at the dash cam video who we have recently just looked at. we have been meeting with the family. they met with the witness for the first time. he met the mother today for the very first time. we looked at the video. wolf just looking at it he even looked like an older man getting out of the car and running away. that even further pushes the fact that that cop shouldn't have run after him and shoot at him. >> walter scott was 50 years old. michael slager the police officer, 33 years old. mr. bamberg, the family they are distraught. hav

chris stewart is an attorney for the scott family. chris stewart: what if there was no video?hat if there was no witness, or hero, if i call him, to come forward? then this would not have happened because as you can see, the initial reports stated something totally different. the officer said mr. scott attacked him and pulled his taser and tried to use it on him, but somebody was watching. >> hallelujah. chris stewart: there was a witness they came forward with a video command the initial reports were wrong. nermeen: before the video was posted online, the north charlestown police department and the officer's attorney defended the use of deadly force. on monday, "the post and courier" ran a report headlined, quote, attorney says "north charleston police officer felt threatened before fatal shooting." the paper reported, quote, "police allege that during the struggle the man gained control of the taser and attempted to use it against the officer. the officer then resorted to his service weapon and shot him, police alleged." amy: but video showed the police officer shooting walt

it's just a thing with some bad cops. >> let's bring in your attorney, chris stewart. the justice department, the fbi will be looking into this. what outcome are you pushing for here? how can the scotts get justice? >> we're going to strongly follow the case that the solicitor is going to bring against this officer. they've charged him with murder. the face is hoping he'll be found guilty and that justice will be northbound that area. we'll be filing a civil lawsuit to hold everybody responsible for this. this wasn't just one situation with this officer. he had a history. i'm sure if he was willing to plant phony evidence at a scene, this may have happened in the past. we also want to push to protect not just minorities but everybody by making sure body cameras are instituted here. we do see too many shootings of individuals. a lot of them happen to be african-americans. this could happen to anyone. >> your mother, judy scott, told anderson cooper she felt forgiveness in her heart for officer slager. do you? >> not at this time. >> absolutely understandable. what is it

it's good as well to have you there chris stewart. i wonder this video has played such an important part many this case. the police saying there's another video of the shooting dash cam video from the police car of the officer. have you or any of the family members been able to see this video, and to your knowledge are there other videos out there that might show us the moments leading up to the shooting that the witness was describing when he spoke with the family? >> we're not aware of any other videos of the incident. there probably is dashboard cam video of the initial stop. where the shooting took place was nowhere near where the cars would have been. i don't know if they're referring it to the reason he was pulled over or the stop. i don't see how it could have caught the incident because the cars were in a different area. >> to your knowledge, no other witnesses that might have recorded any of the moments leading up to the shooting as well? >> no we haven't heard of any other witnesses in that area other than faden, who is now

scott's brother, anthony, who you saw briefly in jason carroll's report and also the attorney, chris stewart were the first people in the family to see this video. when you first saw it, what did you think? >> i was thinking that this can't be true. this can't be the way it really happened, but from knowing my brother's character, i know that he wouldn't have fought for a taser and tried to shoot, use a taser on the officer. i'm sure it had to have been a different story. >> you actually went down when you heard what had happened to your brother. >> yes. >> you went down to the scene. >> i did. >> and what were you told had happened? did the police say it? >> the only thing i was told was that he was shot once. that's all i was told by police. by the officer. >> and when you heard this report that there had been a struggle over the taser, the officer feared for his life, did you believe that? >> i didn't believe it from the start. i didn't believe it when the officer told me that there was a struggle for the taser. i believe that he may have gotten tased but i didn't believe he fought for th

joining us to talk about this, the victim's brother rodney scott and also chris stewart the family'sy. gentlemen, thank you for being with us. rodney, we're very sorry for your loss. i want to ask for your reaction, first of all, to the sound we just heard from feidin santana saying he did not see a struggle for the taser. we know michael slager based his whole justification for shooting your brother on the notion that there was a struggle for the taser. your reaction? >> i was just floored, in total disbelief of the fact that he would say that there was a struggle, and then when i saw that there wasn't a struggle, i was so broken. it really for me apart to hear and know that he would lie -- make a statement like that that wasn't true. >> because you had heard the charges, you had heard what the officer said and then you saw this video for yourself, isn't that right? >> yes, i did. >> when you saw that video, i know we've heard from other members of your family that it was just too hard to take. your mother spoke with anderson cooper saying she couldn't even watch the whole thing. di

ruth bader ginsburg, chris rock the dalai lama. jon stewartst the pope on one side and tina fey against warren buffett. the comedians have won. why do you think the comedians so easily dispatched a titan of industry and the pope? >> i think it makes a lot of sense. the thing about tina fey and john stuart are they not only funny, they also stand for a little bit more than that. tina fey is a female icon in a lot of ways. and jon stewart has become this liberal lion. people attach things to them more than just their comity. it gives them a universality that maybe not everybody has. including the pope. it helps them to not be the polarizing because even if you do not like them or agree with her politics, you cannot deny that they are not funny. john: the notion that jon stewart is more universal of the pope is very funny. who do you have in this matchup between tina and john? >> to me, john stuart has the advantage as he is retired. tina fey she has taken a clear step backward. she has been on camera at a little bit less recently. she is gone ba

myself along with chris stewart are representing the family and we do intend to file a civil lawsuit.itial statements that were made and you heard him mention earlier with regard to some inconsistencies between what the officer said and what the video showed we need to find out exactly what the officers who may have been on the scene saw, heard, and told their superiors. i will give credit to sled as well as solicitor scarlet wilson for moving things along. four days for a murder charge in a law enforcement officer shooting is pretty quick, and i think everybody can acknowledge that. >> yeah absolutely. >> but there's a distinction between the city of north charleston and sled which is the office that took over the investigation and made the decision to do it. yes, ma'am. >> anthony, we understood that your brother had four children. what was his relationship like with those kids? >> he had a very good relationship with his children. they have different parents. the older two have a different mother who is deceased and now they also lost a father and the younger two have -- was marrie

bite of your colleague who's also on the house intelligence committee, republican representative chris stewarts unimpressed with the briefings. i want to see if you disagree with it and why. >> what i see is a complete lack of understanding between the americans and the iranian counterparts. once again do we have unfeddered access to military installations? we say yes, they say clearly no. do they lift sanctions the day the agreement is signed? they say yes, we say no. i don't think those are misrepresentations in the media so much as there's just vast disagreement on what this really means. >> is he wrong? >> he's partly wrong. look shocker of shockers the iranians are spinning this to their hardliners a little different than the administration is describing it to the american people. now, that is i think, an attribute of potentially a successful negotiation. here's the thing though when a negotiation is completed, there will be a document that will be extraordinarily specific about these things. there will be no ambiguity in a document that is acceptable. and so yes, of course right now befo
