i think it's fair to say the rodney king videotape showed white americans what the downside of policetigation of the incident began at both the state and federal levels. usually when you have what lawyers call overlapping jurisdiction, where both the federal government and a state has the authority to prosecute somebody, usually what happens is the state goes first. i am announcing today... poussaint: on march 14, 1991, los angeles police officers stacey koon, lawrence powell, timmy wind, and theodore brisenio were indicted in california state court. they were charged with assault with a deadly weapon and use of excessive force. but even with the tape to serve as evidence, this would not be an easy case to prosecute. stuntz: if you're going after a bank robber or a murderer, there's really only one question -- did this guy do it or did he not do it? in this case, everybody knew the officers did it. kowalski: the state would have to prove that police officers, who have the obligation to use force to arrest somebody, used too much force under the circumstances. poussaint: before the tri

>> i'm sure the feds will step in like in la after the acquittal of the officers that beat rodney king and they did criminal and civil actions. i'm quite sure the justice would step in in this situation. you heard the signals from eric holder that's what he would do and they will have to pick up the baton and run and finish this race for the community. here is the thing. they may be able to prosecute for violations of civil rights at the federal level and they would also be able to help with self actions. so i can see them playing the same role here that they played with rodney king. >> again, i want to try to be at least open in my head at least, the justice system may have to step in, pick up the baton and run this. that sounds like if y'all don't incite you were wrong for indicting. that's a different argument to me trying to say they have been wrong for being a predatory government. i'm absolutely 10 0% with you but friends see bill maher and say he was acting like michael brown, he was acting like a thug said bill maher. the government may have been predatory toward the citizenry

we have to understand that this is a movement that started with rodney king before. we are seeing an advance on decades of organising and movement buildings centring the roll of police in state violence in black communities. >> the killing of michael brown unleashed new energy, not just on a local community tired of a police force, but in a national movement, setting its sights on the roots of disharmany as a whole. >>> hundreds in haiti defended the funeral of former ruler jean-claude duvalier. the man known as baby doc was attended by family. in death he divided a nation. >> reporter: this is the church that jean-claude duvalier attended as a child. now it's the place where his family, friends and supporters came to pay respects. it may not have had the pomp and circumstance of a state funeral, but it was well attended. the 63-year-old died of a heart attack. friends say he wanted to spend his last days in haiti, following 25 years of living in exile. mourners showed loyalty to a man that ruled with an iron fist. he was a man that brought jobs and security. >> he s

>> that's an obvious shift that began with the rodney king verdict and it was continued with the o.j.transition of the disconnect of trust between the black community particularly and the police department is nowhere is it more obvious than in the rodney king beating and the verdict and in the investigation that occurred in the o.j. simpson case. these things, these incidents, were the hot topics where you can see the trend begin at that time. the numbers decreased from the number of minorities that got involved in police departments and these incidents have mushroomed since those two particular cases. >> holly, playing devils advoca advocate, maybe it's not just about race. i talked to several people in the greater st. louis community who say that there is a socioeconomic and an education divide that plays into all of this. do you think the justice system is unfairly stacked against those who are less fortunate? >> of course, it is. ana, there's no getting around it. yes, it absolutely is. and let's bear in mind, too, i know we're saying that the african-american community doesn't tr

rodney king didn't change people's minds. visually of so many other stops of police brutality has not changed the fundamental structure of people's belief. if you are already convinced the people are wrong somehow, even if the police get a little extra that's all right because you are dealing with people who are sub human, so then all things are possible, legitimate and a go. even if you step outside the bounceriy boundaries of what is appropriate you feel the justification is on the side of the police not the people. so it's an inability to see other human beings as human and african-american people are not seated the same kind of rights as many other americans are. >> perhaps the solution lies in taking back rights. voter registration in ferguson is up 30% since53ñkñ august. >> absolutely. >> it's a great silver lining. over 129 city halls in america under represent the african-american communities that they serve. >> no doubt. >> are we going to see more of this? can we see more of this? what do we need to do see more of t

part of what we see is this is a movement starting where rodney king, one that is centering police violence. the killing unleashed new energy. but a movement that set its sites on the roots as a hole. russiaed president ordered troops to withdraw from the border of ukraine. talks came after talks about ukranian president petro porashenko. they'll meet in milan under a fragile truce agreement. >> bolivians are picking their next president. the first indigenous% will be kept in power. more or less leads in the polls. he's had been president since 2006. one of them is polling in second place, the candidate for the democratic union, made up of two matters that mermed. and this man served a one-year term. there were four other can't dates including his former ally from the movement without fear party, and indigenous leader. we take a closer look at bolivia's strong economy, how it is affecting the election. >> reporter: this is santa cruz, the powerful capital. the president evo morales. it's a place where protests were replaced by mass construction. this is bolivia's first major mall, next to t

to see ferguson, like we saw what happened with trayvon martin, like we saw what happened with rodney king, like we saw with the people arrested in the '50s and '60s. all of that will happen again. i have no idea if, when or ever this event will stop. they're really upset and really angry. black, young, female, old, children, senior citizens, everybody is involved in this. you'll see more and more people coming to ferguson. >> jamal you have a piece talking about the very sharp racial divide over what happened in ferguson, specifically michael brown. i wonder, how do we begin to make progress when the numbers, the recommending ton research group re, should he be charged? 28% of whites, those numbers cut across basically every question, depending on who you're talking about. what is the sort of what are the prospects giving the steep and stark racial divide. >> it's not a hard question -- i'm sorry. go ahead. >> jamal, go ahead. professor i'll be back to you in a second. >> something that's optimistic, if you look at the polls, since ferguson, more americans than ever before agree that the

we sought rodney king get eaten with a stick. isrybody is saying that crazy. the officers don't get convicted. you saysork behind this is how we do it here. this,'m trying to say is body cameras are good. , when thatt know information is in front of a jury and that officer is allowed to go back and rethink everything. the law is different when officers are involved. they don't have to give a statement right away. back, you don't want to say this. you want to be careful how you put this forward. all of this is real. what i am saying to you is once that begins to happen, you take a year or two years for a to come up, that jerry is hearing the offers say that i thought he had a gun and i was threatened for my life and i remembered one of my partners was killed a six months ago. i felt a threat when he turned around and he looked at me with his hands up a saying don't shoot. i still felt a threat. people will sit on that jerry and i know -- jury. is there is ang lot in law enforcement that is wrong. we need protection. when i won my case, everybody said to me don'

it happened with rodney king, it happened with trayvon martin and has to with michael brown. the changes are necessary to make things happen and go forward. >> professor butler at georgetown, let me ask you, in terms of the case, there are a lot of selective leaks. the security footage showing michael brown stealing things from a local convenience store. that was intended to sway public opinion. here we have news of a potential resignation. apparently swaying public opinion. does it sway public opinion or does it make people more infearuated? >> i am concerned about the leaks from the grand jury. the only people who know what's going on are the prosecutor and the grand jurors. if either one are leaking to the media, that is an issue of integrity of the judicial system. there's enough concerns about the police, the prosecutors now the grand jury. is it an effort to make people feel better in case there's no indictment? it might be? you know what? that wouldn't necessarily be a bad way to make people feel better. part is making ferguson not a moment, but a movement. in terms of

we all remember rodney king and trayvon martin, more recent.hat role do you think technology may be playing in all of this? >> it may actually be the catalyst because these stories of violent interactions you see on your screen now are not new. but like rodney keing, going viral. on social media, people are sharing them. looking at these situations more often. and it kind of in a way analyzing what's happening. you don't just see it that one time. you can replay it several times and you can have conversations. it's certainly changing the tone of the dialogue that people are having today. >> you've also got dash cam video and in that case the 14-year-old son who was recording with his cell phone in the back seat of the car. >> exactly. >> what about politics? how do you think that's driving the coverage and attention? >> well, the political is certainly -- it's emotional, as well. people are concerned. because these african-american youth and some people of color are getting hurt and in some instances getting killed. and some people say in sense

police shooting of oscar graham, and rodney king case.t's go down a little bit of the information from the testimony from the officer. first off the headline over the weekend. the officer saying he feared for his life. that is, i think, what anyone would expect to come from his testimony. but how does the jury juxtaposition what he was saying with what we've heard from a number of eye witnesses? >> i think the important part is whether or not there was a fight at the car. in the car. regardless of who started it. if there's a fight going on, the officer essential has a right to respond to that and use whatever force is reasonable. the question then becomes once michael brown left the car, then the officer has a question of whether or not he's pursuing a felon. if he's pursuing a felon he probably can use deadly force. if michael brown stopped and turned around and had his hands up, then the officer cannot and should not have shot him. that's where the criminal conduct will take place if there's going to be there at all. that, to me, would

this is a movement that started with rodney king. we see an advantages on decades of organising, centering the roll of violented. the killing unleashed energy toured of racial profiling but in a movement setting its sites on the routes of inequality. joint typhoon warning centre is live. demonstrations stretched. i wonder the sense in the city, in terms of the effectiveness in the latest round of demonstrations. in terms of the effectiveness, the demonstrations are still ongoing. we don't yet know how effective they'll be. to offer contact. there were protests debipping last night, starting on the street where michael brown was shot and killed. protesters marched. they chanted, sang, men yelled at the police officers, and wills ready they took a position, this protest was peaceful. compare that to the second protest. in the sure neighbourhood, this is where von deric was shot on wednesday. protesters marched 2.5 miles to a quick trip store. that's when the st. louis metropolitan police tresed in riot gear arrived demanding the crowd

we saw rodney king get beaten with a stick on television. everybody's saying, that is awful. that is crazy. but what happens? the officers cannot convicted because what happens is that network behind you says, this is how we doing here. body cameras are good, but we don't know, to be honest with you, when all of that information is gone back and a jury, when you're sitting in front and that officer is allowed to go back and rethink everything because the law is different when an officer is involved. they do not have to give a statement right away. all of the protections they have. people tell them. i know. i have been involved. look, you want to change this. you don't want to say this. you want to be careful how you put this forward. this is real, and what i am saying is, once that begins to happen he take a year or two years for trial, that jury is sitting there and hearing the officers say, oh, well i thought he had begun and i was threatened for my life and the remember one of my partners was killed six months ago or so when so was killed. i felt threatened when he turned
