this video was posted by "the new york daily news" after his death happened. it was taken by a bystander on a cell phone. it clearly shows the one officer grabbing him by the neck and holding his head down with force jamming him into the pavement. the tape clearly captured in its audio eric garner saying what turned out to be his dying words, "i can't breathe. i can't breathe. i can't breathe. i can't breathe. i can't breathe." at least eight times. those words have become a rallying cry in these protests. tonight in new york and around the country, because "i can't breathe" were the last words that eric garner spoke as he was being killed. >> don't touch me.

a grand jury in new york city has decided not to charge a white new york city police officer in the death of an unarmed african-american man. cell phone video captured this incident and garner died after saying repeatedly i can't breathe. tensions are high in new york in the aftermath of the grand jury's decision this afternoon. we've just learned that the nypd just requested that all police officers be removed from non-essential court appearances for the next couple of days. joe johns joins us from the district attorney's office in staten island. joe, what is the nypd doing to mobilize ahead of any potential protests to make sure that we don't see in any of new york's five boroughs what we saw in ferguson last week? >> right now the focus is on potential protests. when i got here to this location there was one guy in a store talking about the need to demonstrate over this issue and we didn't even have a decision from the grand jury at that stage. what the police are telling cnn is that they will mobilize and move officers around as demonstrations develop and there are officers, of course

and while new york city residents back new york's finest, the "new york times" backs new york's leftists. unsurprisingly. the "new york times" editorial board blasted the men and women in blue in this city for turning their backs on the mayor and wrote, quote -- well, not so. the "new york times" it seemed to me described almost perfect detail, the "new york times," not the new york police department. it is the times and its ideological op-ed pages shredding and defacing the once proud lady of the journalists. it is the time not the nypd pandering to a left wing mayor and the interest groups of the left. and it is the times that has fallen from proud watchdog of government and power to pink lapdog of the left. >>> now quotation of the evening. this quote from the first director of the fbi, j. edgar hoover who said -- he said that back in 1963. it is very much truth. we're coming right back. >>> just because the russian economy is in free fall vladimir putin is upset about u.s. sanctions. we'll be talking about that and more with former nato supreme if you're taking multiple medications d

in your sense has new york--how has new york dealt with these things? >> new york has dealt with them at times, and dealt with them terribly at other times. it's gotten better under bill de blasio and bill brattan. they've made an effort to stop this practice of stop and frisk, where young men predominantly of color are stopped on the street and asked to prove that they're not carrying weapons. they've identified the issue. they've talked a lot about it. does this change a situation like this. everyone has seen the videotape, and it's a powerful videotape. >> as you pointed out there were many people who expected that there would have been an indictment. >> this is not a picture of stop and frisk. tell me about this. >> there are these stops. it is a police tool that ray kelly, the previous police commissioner was fond of because they felt it was a crime prevention tool. but when you look at the numbers, overwhelmingly the people stopped were not white. that's when people said wait a minute, you're not stopping young white men. you're stopping young bla

new york's finest is at odds with new york's leader and at the worst time two of their own officers wenjian liu and rafael ramos were assassinated over the weekend. a news conference is set to begin in a couple minutes here in new york at police headquarters. we'll watch for new york's mayor and police commissioner to obviously address the atrocities over the weekend and the response. today we have heard from mayor bill de blasio after visiting the homes of the loved ones of the two slain officers and now all of these officers are on alert for further attacks. at least 15 new threats against nypd are known at this point in time. there's no question this disturbed mentally ill cop hating gunman ismaaiyl brinsley killed these two men pointblank. we have a picture of him from facebook. he made a newlywed bride a widow in brooklyn. officer wenjian liu just married several months ago. brinsley also took a father away from his family. officer ramos had two sons. the new york police union leaders are also pointing fingers and blaming the deaths on the mayor bill de blasio. they say he turned his b

a feat of wondrous political engineering. >> the real estate industry here in new york city is like theoil industry in texas. they outspend everybody. they often have a much better relationship with elected officials than everyday new yorkers do. while there was affordable housing built in the last 12 years under mayor bloomberg, that affordable housing was not built for certain people. for example, if you were a family of four that earned between $26,000 a year and $42,000 a year. so think of a single mom with three kids who works as an administrative assistant. there were basically no affordable apartments constructed over the last 12 years for that family. that really sent a message as to who this city wanted. you know, this city did not want regular working people, which is a real shame because that's who makes new york city great. >> as billionaires' row keeps rising, so does the cost of living, driving more and more people elsewhere. >> we're going to use every tool of this city government in ways more aggressive than ever attempted in the past to protect the interests of our peop

but why is new york city a place to come and do that? that's something we should all be asking ourselves as new yorkers. >> the mayor made the point that this was not just an attack against two officers, this was an attack against an entire city. clearly, he's trying to say that all have to come together at this horrible time. >>> this goes to the statements that the commissioner was talking about. aapartmently, posting on line by this particular suspected that they've identified is 28-year-old ishmael brinsley, the commissioner said showed a very strong bias against police officers. and that he was very anti-police. >> one of the last photos i saw that was taken down was i'm putting wings on pig s today. they took one of ours, let's take one of theirs. it said this might be my final post. it was an emoji of a gun with bull ets coets coming out of it. when you hear the commissioner talking about that social post, you begin to connect the dots again. we're looking right now at his facebook page. a couple posts 11 hours ago, the gunman post

the law hasn't made it a crime in new york. a lot of states, by the way, it's still being trained. police officers are trained to use the chokehold. so maybe this case will send a message to other parts of the country that it shouldn't be used at all if it is used. so there are lessons that are going to be taken from this case. in terms of the criminal justice system and how we make it work better, it's a system of human beings and we just have to work with the system and structure we have to make it reflect everybody's sense of justice. >> one thing we know tonight is that there are many, many people, thousands, hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions who feel disenfranchised, they have they are not being heard. you heard the attorney general of the united states speaking live tonight saying there is now a federal civil rights investigation into this case as the protesters are gathering and marching here in new york city, the world will be watching. thank you so much for joining us tonight. we have much more of our breaking ne
