police officers are trained to deescalate. how is shooting off 12 rounds a deescalation?know how long this officer had been on the force. all of these things, the more experienced you are to kind of think rationally in an emergency -- >> but you shouldn't be responding to this type of call if you aren't capable of handling it. >> it's your job. you respond. things happen. >> you don't get a pass to only respond when you're out on the street to only these kinds of incidents or those kinds of incidents. i think what they're going to say is, i think they're already developing the defense, they're going to say this officer was out there, they had a 911 call. the woman was clearly frightened and agstated and scared. they responded. the taser was used. for whatever reason, either the taser malfunctioned or dntd have the impact it was supposed to. therefore he fired his weapon and discharged all of it because the taser didn't work. it could be an unfortunate confluence of factors, but it's a very tough case for the prosecution. >> thank you. >>> two cases from 40 years ago, imag

>> you draw your weapon to in essence, it's a deescalation, believe it or not, to take your weapon oute the situation because common sense if somebody has a gun drawn on you, you're not going to approach the person. but once you have your gun drawn, you're trying to take control, you want the person to stop, you want to keep a distance of safety, protect yourself and your partner and the public. i don't know why -- what happened that somebody fires a stun gun to taser the guy and then the second officer shoots, but i doubt that at 2:30 in the morning some cops had it in their head they were going to go kill somebody tonight. it's not in their mind. >> how is that justifiable? that's what i don't understand. yes, i think police officers are certainly trained to try to deescalate, but how is shooting off 12 rounds a de-escalation. >> also, we don't know much about the service of this officer, how long this officer had been on the force. all of these things. the more experience you have, the more able you are to kind of think rationally in an emergency. >> you shouldn't be responding to t

he is trying to deescalate the situation.n didn't like the way the officer was speaking to his daughter-in-law. and expletives at him and say i don't like the f'ing way you're talking to me. clearly everyone else is yelling expletives, too. if you look at everything, this guy, actually, he's facing criminal charges, facing resisting arrest and misconduct during the course of an emergency. i believe what this officer was trying to do especially in the light of the fact that he didn't have backup is trying to, again, like i said before, control the situation. when other people are videotaping and obstructing his investigation as well, i think he was trying to do the best he could given the resources that he had. >> we had to leave it there. we're out of time. of course, the key elements are what led up to what we then see. >> was it reasonable force. >> we'll follow this investigation. thank you both for giving your legal expert tigs. we appreciate it. >> thanks for having us. >> a message from beyond the grave for a daughter o

we always tell kids in the neighborhood, it's a big man that can figure out a way to deescalate.t may bring you shame later. why do we tell kids one thing in a conflict, then as adults we act totally differently? this guy's a bully, a thug, he's done something despicable, but make sure we do the right thing in response. a smart thing, something that will deescalate this conflict and not put us on a slippery slope to more body bag, more funerals, more war. i'm tired of war, i think america is tired of war. we need to be creative in figuring out nonviolent solutions. >> van jones, newt gingrich, thank you very much for the perspective today. look forward to "cross fire." always great having you on "new day." >> thank you. >>> all right. just in case you're watching, their "cross fire" returns to cnn monday, september 9th, at 6:30 p.m. eastern. that's 6:30 p.m. eastern. michaela, over to you. >>> now to "impact your world." roger daltry thrilled audiences in the who, but behind the scenes he's dedicated to helping teenagers, and not just with his music. decades in the spotlight has
