mr. harry was very, very persistent that i go to get a restraining order against mr. fitzpatrick. even went with me to the courthouse to get it done. >> sharon jones and lewis harry then realized that the restraining order backfired. it infuriated fitzpatrick who responded by sending threatening letters to lewis harry and his wife, diana. >> mr. harry described the content of the letter and said basically that roy fitzpatrick was threatening him and his wife and that they were getting increasingly more sinister. >> the letters were laced with racial epithets. this one was sent to diane harry. >> i am having a hard time overlooking your husband. i think i will take you away from him so you will see how it feels. >> and he wrote this to lewis. >> you won't have to hurt for long because your ass is mine. >> investigators asked roy fitzpatrick if he sent the threatening letters and initially he denied it. >> a date later, he decided to come in and tell the truth and admitted he sent the letter to mr. harry. >> but fitzpatrick claimed he was angry with lewis harry not because of the re

mr. harris? mr. harris: we made the first sale of rice to cuba in 2001, we took advantage of their lower cost labor. we actually had the rice bagged on the docks in cuba. one of the benefits that we see is that when cuba buys rice from vietnam, they have to buy it and extremely large vessels, because of the proximity to the u.s. we can actually run small vessels not only to the port of havana that go to other ports, it helps them on their storage to warehousing industry should. senator roberts: mr. kaner? >> they need access to more of our products, such as farm equipment. we have had limitations on what we could ship. we took two gifts of wrenches, some of the professionals were not sure if that was a good gift. when we took it to their farmers, they had tears in their eyes. they showed us all of the fence s built with our tools because we understood their needs. as we get some efficiencies and are shipping, and bring our farmer to farmer interaction, we will improve their productivity, which will in

mr. harris was saying that he couldn't breathe.e had been shot and he subsequently died from those wounds. i think it's going to lead to a broader expanse and introspection of exactly what the training is, not just for the reserve deputies but for the deputies themselves in terms of how they use deadly force and what happens after the use of deadly force when they're still supposed to be protecting and serving the public in general. >> all right. mr. peterson professor, what's wrong with this picture? i mean it appears like this guy cash whipped his way into a position of authority. we can talk about his experience. what's a 73-year-old retired guy doing on a sting operation? i mean where's the city council on this? there's about a million questions here as to how this guy got in this position. your thoughts? >> everything is wrong with this. just in the moment, we're all still trying to process the video of the murder of walter scott, we get this particular story. i'm sorry, but mr. bates appears to have bought his way into this s

i want to bring in harry houck now, retired nypd detective. you just heard mr.es' attorney making the case. what do you say? >> clearly, this guy didn't do it intentionally to pull his gun out and kill this guy. we could probably say that there was no intent to kill. but what is really strange. why do you have a volunteer officer on a gun buy operation? you know where you got to have detectives. >> he is 73 years old. >> well that's another thing. he is 73 years old, all right. and usually, when you have a taser, you got to have the taser on one side and your weapon on the other. this way you don't make the mistake by pulling your weapon. >> so it's always on the same side. >> it's always on the same tied and your taser is on this side. so how this guy mistakenly did it tells me he did it is so fast he wasn't watching what he was doing, fired, and at the last minute oh my god, i shot at this guy. also you to take into account, okay, this guy is 73 years old. is he mentally capable to be able to do this kind of a job? what is the age limit on reserve officers? ca

brown who immediately visited mrs. harris family. >> to have him come here and treat her like family, that's what made the difference. he didn't run in here and say i don't have my gloves i don't want to touch her. he came in talked to her, shook her hand. >> reporter: that same day we got to meet another patient of dr. brown's. >> hello, hello. >> reporter: 91-year-old walter johnson. money isn't an issue for this patient. but he has rheumatoid arthritis so severe he can barely walk and that makes getting out to the doctor's office nearly impossible. >> i don't have to change my clothes or anything. and i'm ready to go when he comes. >> being able to see, you know, patients in the way that they live it changes you. >> dr. ernest brown says seeing a patient in their home can make a real difference in care. it's an opportunity for him to make sure they have family or a support system and he can even check on the food they're eating and recommend changes. >> that is remarkable. >> yeah. >> utterly remarkable that there's somebo

mr. harris to die that day. >> reporter: departments in all 50 states rely on reserve officers and deputieshey often work side by side with full-time cops. the tulsa sheriff's department says bates, a business man who has volunteered as a reserve deputy since 2008, was more than qualified to be on the street. harris' family believes that reserve deputy should have known the difference between a gun and a taser. they're now alleging a cover-up. the sheriff's department tells us they've asked the fbi to look into possible civil rights violations. clayton sandell, abc news, denver. >>> new audio recordings have been released from the immediate aftermath of that deadly police shooting in south carolina. moments after officer michael slager shot and killed walter scott, he can be heard talking to his supervisor. he explains to slager that his weapon will be taken away and he'll have to take a few days off. slager is also heard talking on a phone call believed to be from his pregnant wife. >> hey. hey, everything's okay. okay? i just shot somebody. i'll give you -- okay. >> investigators say they

mr. harris? >> i can respond on behalf of riceland foods, no. it is a very small step. i can tell you the day after the president's announcement, i contacted alan port and told them certainly we had an interest in doing business there and they thanked me very much for the call. but had had no interest in purchasing u.s. rice. so, senator, i really think that they are looking for an elimination of the embargoes so they can have the ability to create foreign exchange by selling their rum and cigars and citrus to the u.s. and the tourism that they need so badly. i really think that the small incremental moves that we're making are not swaying them to try to be -- to work closer with us. >> would you all agree that those are the -- that is the major barrier? what is the major barrier? >> i agree that i think that the answer would be the repeal of the embargo as a wheat farmer from kansas you know i'm looking at june to be harvesting my wheat crop. so, you know, i would be looking at -- it would be the port in july. so if the embargo was lifted, we could be selling wheat to

mr. harris's head. their game is we didn't hear him say he was shot. and we didn't hear the shot.et's watch the video one more time. so that we know what we're talking about and then we'll go to your reporting of what they say they did not hear at that time. let's watch this one more time. >> oh he shoot me! he shot me. [ bleep ]. [ bleep ]. >> oh, god. oh, he shot me. he shot me, man. oh, my god. >> didn't do -- [ bleep ]. you hear me? >> in his back. >> and ziva what did your reporting show about what those officers now claim? >> they claim that they didn't hear the shot that they weren't aware that eric harris was shot. there is a consultant that the sheriff's office has brought in. he gave a press conference at which he discussed a syndrome in which law enforcement officers lose their hearing their auditory capabilities during a stressful situation. however, that is definitely contradicted by their own information, that deputy bates said taser, taser, which is standard procedure when you're going to use a taser and the deputies got out of the way so they didn't get tased. so t

mr. harris was an angel by any stretch of the imagination but he didn't deserve to be killed for what he was doing. >> bates also laid out some more of the sort of map and frame work for where he was and what he was doing. i want to play one more piece of sound. >> two other cars were in front. i was the last car as i always am. i carry the equipment that the deputies use to clear a scene. whatever. i've been involved in several hundred of these. i do cleanup when they're done. i take notes. i take photographs. and that's my job. >> he says he was the last car. he was way back. he was waiting to go snap photos and this whole mess came to him, which is why he had to use the taser. wasn't expecting to be there. he was. is that plausible to you? >> well, it seems as if his role as a deputy was a cleanup role. he would come in and be the cleanup guy and take photos and clean up the scene. there was clearly active scene where you have active police officers there handling this. there were a number of them. seems as if they already physically kind of had him on the ground so you would think th

mr. harris was trying to get him turned over and get him handcuffed. there was a split second later when bates fired the taser or thought he was firing the taser and actually fired the gun. there was no need for it. and the problem with that it makes me think that bates was here for the action of it all. that he was determined to get involved in the action. he was determined to use this taser and never thought about the appropriateness of it. he was just determined to use the taser. >> sonny, it's interesting -- >> tragic results. >> -- you hear somebody say taser, taser, i'm not sure if that's bates indicating that he's going to use the taser or if somebody is calling for a taser. my sense is it's bates saying he's about to use the taser? is that what you thought? >> that's what i thought. i've watched it several times, it's still a bit unclear to me. but what isn't unclear, is when you look at the facts here, he called that morning, he called the task force to ask what was going on. he wanted to be on a part of this. and while he's volunteered, i thi

mr. harris back. he is dead because of the actions that were taken on that day.d his good intentions are directly going to be compared with the training that he received or should have received in comparison with the deadly use of force that he displayed on that day, and it was just inappropriate in this case and this is why it's charged as a second-degree, as a reckless mistake, that he should have known better and should have used better care because at the end of the day, there's still someone dead and the state is not going to take that as an excuse to mitigate his behavior beyond what the charges are to get him out of culpability in this case. >> the state may not, but a jury is likely to. >> well we'll see. >> this is part of the defense, this interview today, isn't it? >> yes, it is. >> the mission had to be go out and show the country that you're really a good guy. >> absolutely. and i think the character of the defendant, i think the way he's lived his life the people who support him, and his intentions and goals and helping the police department are goi

mr. harris was trying to get him turned over and get him handc f handcuffed, it was a split second later when bates fired the taser and actually fired the gun. there was no need for it, the problem with that is that it makes me think that bates was here for the action of it all, he was determined to get involved in the action. he was determined to use his taser and never thought about the appropriateness of it. he was just determined to use the taser. with tragic results. you. >> hear somebody say taser, taser, i'm not sure if that's bates indicating that he's going to use the taser or if somebody is calling for a taser. my sense is it's bates saying he's about to use the taser, is that what you thought? >> that's what i thought, and i watched it several times, it's a bit unclear to me, anderson. but what isn't unclear is when you look at the facts here, he called that mourning, he called the task force to ask what was going on. he wanted to be a part of this. and while he's volunteered, i think my understanding is, over 1,000 hours, bottom line is, he doesn't have the training necessary

mr. harris fled, attempted to flee from capture and when he was attempting to be subdued and still in a ground deputies, this deputy bates approached and attended to use a less lethal device. inadvertently, he uses handgun instead. amy: robert bates has been charged with second-degree manslaughter. he was released on $25,000 bond. if convicted he faces a maximum of four years in prison and a fine of $1,000. on tuesday, andre harris questioned the police version of his brother eric's death. andre: if he had as much training as he supposedly had he would definitely know a 357 from a taser. he did not have to. this is something that either he did not really think about or he just decided that he wanted to shoot, and he would worry about it later. amy: robert bates is a wealthy executive and heavy donor to the police department who gets to volunteer on the force as a reserve. meanwhile the south carolina police officer charged with murder for fatally shooting walter scott will probably not face the death penalty if he is convicted. prosecutors say michael slager would still be eligible for a sente
