lizz brown, first of all, to mr. page there who has been suspended, how surprised were you or shocked or how would you describe your feelings about discovering that this kind of thinking was in one of your local police departments? >> confirmation. i really believe, when i hear those words coming out of his mouth, it's the same energy, it's the same thought brothers, it's the same world view that i believe drove darren wilson to feel comfortable enough that he could shoot a child, leave a child on the ground for four hours, and then know that he was going to be covered by the county police department. that's -- it's confirmation, lawrence. >> and jim cavanaugh, officer page is in the police department that ferguson immediately handed over their investigation to. and that video has been online since april. nobody thought, until friday, there was anything wrong and the officer involved didn't think there was anything wrong with having that video online until friday. since april. >> it's out rage just, lawrence, really.
