judge just ordered an ex-police officer to serve 16 months in prison for shooting and killing daunte wrighto grab her taser. instead grabbed her gun and shot wright. in emotional testimony, wright's family called for the maximum sentence, but the judge says this case of potter who is white and wright who is black is different from other high-profile cases. >> this case is highly unusual. the other officer cases tried in this court are distinguishable. this is not a cop found guilty of murder for using his knee to pin down a person for 9 1/2 minutes as he gasped for air. this is not a cop found guilty of manslaughter for intentionally drawing his firearm and shooting across his partner and killing an unarmed woman who approached his squad. this is a cop who made a tragic mistake. >> cnn's josh campbell is following developments for us. and joey jackson is here with us as well. josh, it was an emotional day in the courtroom. >> it was indeed. emotional. we saw tears being shed by the family of daunte wright, as well as by this former officer kim potter. even the judge tearing up as she handed

sentencing former police officer kim potter to 16 months in prison today, calling the death of daunte wright a tragic accident. it's a significant departure from the seven years that the state was seeking in this case, and far below the 15 maximum sentence potter faced. potter delivered an emotional apology to wright's family in court before her sentencing. >> my heart is broken for all of you. earlier when you said that i didn't look at you during the trial, i don't believe that i had a right to and i didn't even have a right to be in the same room with you. i am so sorry that i hurt you so badly. >> joining me now, nbc correspondent shaquille brewster outside of the courthouse, and also a legal analyst, and shaq, i want to start with you here. tell us more about the sentencing. i watched as we heard emotional and tear-filled statements of daunte wright. how is the family and community reacting? >> they walked out of the courtroom emotional and disappointed by the sentence that the judge announced earlier this afternoon. this was a family that we heard from the victim impact statements were

she's just been sentenced in the fatal shooting of daunte wright for an a traffic stop that took place in april last year. joining us from minneapolis here. in this case, shaq, the prosecution was asking for more than seven years for a person with no criminal history, like potter when the state sentencing guidelines say she would have been eligible to get between six and eight and a half years. the sentence now just two years. only 18 of them served behind bars. >> reporter: that's exactly right. you have that two-year sentence coming from the judge who, as you mentioned, got emotional reading the closing comments while thinking about the position kim potter has been placed in and the fact it was a split second decision when she drew her firearm and thinking it was a taser, according to her testimony, and shot daunte wright. the prosecution says that they wanted that presumptive sentence. as the state guidelines suggest. they wanted a sentence of seven years for kim potter to serve in prison. but you even heard them say and acknowledge in arguments earlier in the day that this is a uni

we can expect to hear impact statements, victim impact statements from the family of daunte wright.hear letters of support and possible statements as well for kim potter as her defense team argues for that lighter sentence and as the prosecution argues whether or not there should be aggravating factors included in her sentence. you mentioned that the prosecution is asking for about seven years in prison for kim potter. that fits what the state guidelines suggest for someone with her profile. the defense is asking for a sentence as light as probation citing things like her age, her prior record, her remorse she showed after the shooting. they say in her memo that daunte wright was a victim -- excuse me, that the victim was the aggressor in the incident. this will all come before the judge in a couple minutes. >> as the judge is making those considerations, kristen, what are the things that need to be considered and what about the potential for those aggravating factors? >> it's important to remember that the sentencing judge, judge chu, also sat through and watched as every single wi

less than half the 15-year maximum in the state for first degree manslaughter, writing, quote, daunte wright and his life must be held in the highest regard. the presumptive sentence reflects the culpability of the defendant's recklessness in causing daunte's death. but potter's attorneys want a reduced sentence or probation, citing her track record on the force, lack of criminal record and remorse. the prosecution writing if the judge is inclined to give a reduced sentence, potter should spend a minimum of one year behind bars followed by ten years of probation. in court today, potter is expected to reiterate how sorry she is and again apologize to wright's family, members of whom are expected to give impact statements before the sentencing. the wright family has also scheduled a news conference for later today. >>> minnesota is making a move toward restricting the use of so-called no-knock warrants after a black man was killed by police. a committee of house lawmakers has passed a bill that would limit the use of those warrants to cases when someone is being held against their will. the vo

earlier today daunte wright's mom asked for potter to get the harshest sentence possible.nitially argued she should face a penalty of up to 15 years but earlier this week she reversed course and said 7 years would be appropriate. the defense is asking for a lighter than usual sentence including only probation given that potter has no prior record, remorseful, an exemplary career up to the shooting and little chance to commit the same crime again since she is no longer a police officer. whatever sentence she received she will likely only serve 2/3 in prison. in minnesota convicts with good behavior are released for the last third on probation. >> president biden: every time i get a chance i go home to delaware. you think i'm joking? i represented delaware for 36 years as a united states senator and just like most congressional districts good news and bad news, everybody knows you. >> harris: why does he do that and whisper and creep us out? he is bragging about his frequent trips away from the white house as the country faces a number of crises. the president is spending 28
