essentially officer thao's attorneys are arguing that dr. baker was coerced.addition to that, the attorney for officer thao is also alleging that the prose caution had some role in the leak to the new york times and the associated press. both outlets reported chauvin was ready to take a plea deal that then attorney general bill barr rejected. the prosecution coming back and strongly denying that, saying that it's completely false and that allegation is a waste of the court's time. again, this all comes as those three officers are charged with aiding and abetting and their trial is scheduled for august. we're awaiting details on what these motion hearings, where they will go, and again, no cameras allowed in the courtroom, but should be interesting to see how this all plays out and whether that trial continues to be scheduled for august. of course chauvin and those officers, those other officers, now face federal civil rights charges. craig? >> gabe gutierrez, keep us posted. thank you. >>> this morning we're also keeping our eyes on the escalating violence in

thao and kueng are accused of failing to intervene in what chauvin did. and there was something else. that same federal grand jury also charging derek chauvin with a civil rights violation in a separate case involving a 14-year-old boy. abc's alex perez leading us off tonight. >> reporter: tonight, the four officers involved in the death of george floyd could possibly face up to a maximum sentence of life in federal prison. the three-count indictment charges that former minneapolis police officers derek chauvin, tou thao, j. alexander kueng, and thomas lane willfully deprived mr. floyd of his constitutional civil rights, saying when derek chauvin kneeled on george floyd's neck for more than nine minutes, he used unconstitutional, unreasonable force that led to his death. and that thao and kueng knew that chauvin was holding his knee across george floyd's neck as he lay handcuffed and unresisting and they willfully failed to intervene. the indictment further accuses all four of leaving floyd lying on the ground in clear need of medical care and willfully f

and initially, the attorney for officer thao is saying dr.xiation and only added the words neck compression to his report after he was contacted by the medical examiner in washington, d.c., who apparently according to the court filing, threatened to go to "the washington post" and file an opinion piece, and only after that, the attorney for officer thao alleges the words neck compression were added. that was one thing. there's also something else, another motion hearing, a motion where the attorney for officer thao is alleging prosecutors actually leaked information to "the new york times" and associated press about this potential plea deal derek chauvin was apparently willing to take but then-attorney general bill barr rejected. the prosecution has come back with a blistering statement calling that completely false, that they weren't involved with that, and the whole thing is a, quote, waste of the corporate's time. some potential fireworks could happen in this motions hearing. no cameras allowed in court, stephanie. the actual officers them

alexander kueng and tou thao derived him of his constitutional rights. all four former officers are charged with deliberate indifference to george floyd's serious medical needs. former officers j. alexander kueng and tou thao are charged with violating george floyd's right to be free from an unreasonable seizure. derek chauvin is charged with his unreasonable force by a police officer. according to the minneapolis star "tribune," federal prosecutors have long felt they have enough evidence to indict the officers on civil rights violations, but charges were delayed so they wouldn't disrupt derek chauvin's state trial. j. alexander kueng and tou thao made court appearances this morning via zoom. they're not currently in custody and are to be tried together in august. derek chauvin is currently in a minnesota prison awaiting sentencing after a jury found him guilty on all three state charges for his role in the murder of george floyd. a second and entirely separate federal indictment was also unsealed today against derek chauvin in a different case charging

our mission is to be -- tou thao -- total is becoming collaborative energies. >> they plan to changecross global -- bringing in line paris climate agreement goals, it comes after a turbulent week for big oil, exxon mobil and chevron faced billions from shareholders over the approach to climate change. dutch shell must take more aggressive action. >> for the first time in history, the judge has decided a large producer -- polluter should stop causing dangerous climate change. this will have entered norma's impact not only on this but also major producers to the death -- netherlands and locally. >> pressure for change is not likely to let up. last week the international energy agency warned that oil companies much -- must stop oil and gas exploration projects this year of global warming is to be curbed. >> the oil sector is moving in the right direction when it comes to climate change. it is time never focus. it has been 10 years since germany voted to abandon nuclear power, six nuclear power stations are still running but three will be shut down this year and the rest in 2022. the pro

although form officers thao, kueng and lane were all in court this morning. this is separate from the cases playing out at the state level and separate from a recently announced department of justice probe into the patterns and practices at the minneapolis police department. >> and then, omar, this other element to this. indicted derek chauvin for a separate incident in 2017 against a 14-year-old. what was that? >> on top of the federal indictment encompassing all the four officers another federal indictment against derek chauvin stemming from a 2017 incident where he responded to a domestic assault call and as that indictment reads the count one alleges that on september 4th, 2017, chauvin without legal justification held the teenager by the throat and struck the teenager multiple times in the head with a flashlight. count two charges that chauvin held his knee on the neck and the upper back of the teenager even after he was lying prone, handcuffed and unresisting, also resulting in bodily injury. according to court documents that teen needed to be taken to

thao, king and lane made court appearance this is morning. bond was set at $25,000 for them. this is separate from the trial they'll be facing in august, weeks after derrick chek chauvi convicted. >> you see the cases where state court does not convict as an alternative. but state court did convict him. the other three will face charges. now you have the separate tracks. thank you. big news this morning on the vaccine front. pfizer is seeking full approval from the fda for the covid-19 shot. it has emergency use authorization. it also passed loads of trials to show it's safe. that's why it's being used. this is a next step and does have significance. >>> also ahead for us, two of former president trump's most loyal allies in congress are going to hit the road on a national speaking tour. the their message and who they're targeting ahead. >>> and then later, the chinese rocket getting closer and closer to crashing potentially -- well, it will land somewhere on earth. we don't know where. we'll discuss what is being done to track it ahead. i've got moderate to severe plaque pso

count two focuses on thao and kueng says the defendants failed to intervene to stop defendant's use ofge floyd in need of medical care and willfully failed to reach floyd. we each reached out to the attorneys for all of these former officers. eric nelson, the attorney for derek chauvin along for officer kueng have said no comment and we should note this is different than the state cases playing out where chauvin awaits sen tension and different from the recently announced department of justice probe about practices at the minneapolis police department. >> and chauvin faces new charges in connection to a 2017 case. >> that's right. a separate federal indictment for derek chauvin that came out today focuses on a 2017 incident where he responded to a domestic assault call and allegedly put this teen on the ground, his knee on his neck and kept that knee there allegedly even after he was in handcuffs, stopped resisting and when he was in the prone position so two counts of civil rights violations being charged there as he faced multiple and that other indictment which, of course, can inclu

it charges two of the officers thao and keung with failing to intervene.doesn't mean they caused his death, but they had a duty to stop derek chauvin from what he was doing. that is a really important, aggressive statement by d.o.j. not okay if you're a police officer to just sit there and watch. and similarly with that final charge against all four police officers that they failed to render medical aid. again, the message is it's not okay to do nothing when you have a duty to protect as these police officers do. >> especially on the first two. i heard some suggest this is in their view an expansive reading of civil rights laws that apply here. do you agree? >> i do. it's an aggressive reading. it's not a reading doj has taken in the past. it is unusual to see police officers charged. again, no the for any affirmative act that they took but for failing to intervene and failing to render medical aid. that is novel and aggressive. it will be tested in the courts. i think doj is making a statement about what they believe in and what they stand for. >> what do

former officers jay alexander king and two thao are charged with violating george floyd's right to be free from an unreasonable seizure, and quote. derek chauvin is also charged with violating george floyd's right to be free from the use of unreasonable force by a police officer. federal prosecutors have long thought they got enough evidence to indict the officers on civil rights violations, but charges were delayed so they wouldn't disrupt derek chauvin 's state trial. the other three all made a court appearance this morning by zoom. there are not in custody, and they are scheduled to be tried together on state charges in august. derek chauvin is currently in a minneapolis, person awaiting sentencing after a jury found him guilty on all three estate charges for his role in the murder of george floyd. a second and entirely separate federal indictment was also unsealed today against derek chauvin in a different case. with violating the civil rights of a 14-year-old during a 2017 arrest involving use of force and a neck restraint. the charges facing all four former officers are brand ne

two of the other officers thao and keung by failing to stop derek chauvin.he legal theory here is different. the key facts are the same, most important, did derek chauvin use excessive force. there is no double jeopardy problem here. they are different charges. and the supreme court held as recently as 2019 that it's not a problem for federal prosecutors to charge the same as the state prosecutors. >> and earlier this week, elie, a judge ordered that a secret doj memo saying not to charge donald trump at the end of the mueller investigation must be released. this is something that's on a lot of people's minds. a viewer asks, will the decision by a federal judge about will barr's handling of the mueller report lead to new public disclosures about whether doj tried to cover up for former president donald trump. >> yes, first of all, the judge found that bill barr was, and i quote, disingenuous in how he described the mueller report to the congress and the public. we already knew that from another federal judge. second, this part is new. it turns out there was

kueng, lane and thao face charges of aiding and abetting in a murder and man sure.te judge pushed the case back to let the federal case move forward and avoid recent publicity surrounding chauvin's murder conviction. >>> more fallout from the january 6 breach of the u.s. capitol. this active duty u.s. marine has been charged in the riot. the 40-year-old major is the first active duty service member to be charged in the insurrection. he had been based at quan cosince last summer. the major is accused of scuffling with police and helping other members of the mob force their way into the capitol building. >>> this morning drivers in several states are sitting in gas lines despite operations resuming at the colonial pipeline. we are learning the hackers that attacked the biggest pipeline in the country got paid millions of dollars in ransom money. jobina fortson is live with more. >> reporter: the russia-based hackers received payments in the low millions. the fbi is investigating but long advised private companies not to pay ransom after these attacks for fear of incen

the three others -- thomas lane, alexander kueng, and tou thao -- are accused of failing to provide floyd with medical care and two of the men with failing to intervene and stop chauvin from killing floyd. the three former officers are also still facing state charges of aiding and abetting in the murder and manslaughter of george floyd. in a separate case, former police officer derek chauvin also faces a federal indictment for violating the civil rights of a 14-year-old boy from minneapolis, whom he grabbed by the throat, hit multiple times with a flashlight, and held his knee on his neck during a 2017 arrest. in north carolina, a judge ruled the family of andrew brown, jr. will only be allowed to see a fraction of the body camera footage of his killing. brown was a 42-year-old black father who was shot five times by police officers last month, including a fatal shot to the back of the head. the family, which has so far only seen 20 seconds of bodycam video, will be shown less than 20 minutes of the two hours of tape that was recorded. the footage will not be available to the public. fait

then, more recently, a hmong- american minneapolis police officer tou thao was one of four officers accusedy while derek chauvin knelt on george floyd's neck. both communities are now working urgently toward greater racial and social justice. the question is: how might they work side by side? i'm joined by tamara nopper, a sociologist and fellow at new york university's center for critical race and digital studies; and brenda stevenson, a professor of history and african american studies at the university of california los angeles. ladies, thank you so much for joining the "newshour" for this important conversation, and professor stephenson, i want to start with you because the las time i interviewed you we talked about how a broad racial coalition had emerged after the killing of george floyd, and the black lives matter movement growing. as we started to see the increased attacks on asian-americans, i wonder, do you feel that solidarity held or are there still those fractures among communities of color that we saw in los angeles nearly three decades ago? >> well, i think that the answer to

count two says two of the other officers, thao and king willfully failed to intervene to stop chauvin's four defendants saw mr. floyd lying on the ground and didn't provide aid to him. and chauvin had brand-new charges against him. he was indicted on two more counts of civil rights violation for his actions against a 14-year-old during an arrest in 2017. meanwhile the department of justice is already investigating the larger minneapolis police department over possible patterns of excessive force. and the fbi opened a civil rights investigation into the killing of andrew brown jr. in elizabeth city, north carolina. with every passing day, one can sense it's a new dawn at the department of justice. after four years of degenerate leadership it appears the justice department and the entire biden administration is making civil rights a top priority, particularly when it comes to taking on rogue cops who fail to uphold the oath they're sworn to. what message are these federal charges sending to other police considering future bad acts and what do they say about the direction of biden's dodge?

in and you don't look at bunch of tokens and say, look, progress, this is get a little spiral tou thao. people need to change their heart first and say, why do i actually even believe that we should change our business? especially if its made us money in the past? are we only going to change, only going to start acquiring more books by black' brown folks because people are threatening to cancel us if woe don't? are we just going to do it to make more money or die -- do i actually believe in the being the person at the top or in the meeting saying die actually -- do i actually mere we need pub the stories? i would say for us no doubt, because a lot of the shit that's been published hal has been cool but some is boring as hell. the same plotty it's like candy and helen both move to new york city when they're 22 and then demarco entered their life and whew will -- the books come owl every year because there's a market for them and people enjoy them but there is a large market for books by black and brown folk and not even always just for black and brown folk. >> even in books like that it

. >> reporter: former police officers chauvin, tou thao, alexander kueng and thomas lane are all being during his arrest. relative to recent history, the charges came swift. chauvin was charged last month. >> this was about george floyd's life. the fact that he had a constitutional right to life, and when they denied him a breath for being on his neck for 9:29, if that wasn't a constitutional violation, we don't know what was. >> reporter: we reached out to these officers and received no comment, but legal experts are already considering the implication of these new charges, both on the three officers who have yet to stand trial in minnesota, but also the jurors that will have to determine their guilt or innocence, dan. >> many more steps to come. zachary, thank you very much. >>> we want to turn to another police-involved shooting death, walter wallace jr. this has raised a lot of questions, and now his family is giving their first major interview to abc's "nightline." here now juju chang. >> reporter: less than a month after his wedding, walter wallace jr. was shot by police while in

officer thao says that he never put his hands on mr. floyd.se aren't technical defenses, but jurors are often sympathetic to police officers in difficult situations. they weren't for chauvin, but again, these are different cases. >> you know, i want to talk about the laundry list, as we well know, of misconduct complaints from 19 years of experience or serving in the force for derek chauvin. you think about this most recent second indictment involving the assault of a 14-year-old boy back in 2017 for derek chauvin. how important is it to have these instances made public, and does this make the case even stronger when we talk about police reform for having misconduct and complaints made public of all officers? >> absolutely. yasmin, according to the indictment, in 2017, chauvin hit a 14-year-old child with a flashlight and put his knee on the child's neck. the child complained that he could not breathe and the mother begged chauvin to stop, but he wouldn't. you have to wonder whether george floyd would still be alive if chauvin had faced conseq

information we have about why maybe in southern california -- i don't t know how commonhan it is -- thaot's impacting younger people between 20 and 40 more than others? >> i can start with that, dr. collins. let me point to what's importanp to have in the backeo of your mind, the number of people infected with covid in this e country, the newest members of e peoplepr infected are in that a group, 18 to 39, so it's not a surprise necessarily that they would be it meroverrepresented i persons that are experiencing post-covid as well.. having said that, i think it still merits close attention because it is an unusual signals and i hope folks are, you know, going to begin focusing more o the age differences as well as some of the others we've raisedd before. >> i agree with that. when you look at what is the oos likelihood that somebody who was just diagnosed with covid-19 isn going to go on to long covid, is looks to be a bit higher for older people. on the other hand, there are more young people getting ave b infected. if you go s through theick mathematics, you can see why itl is that lon
