Another story polarizing opinions in the us is that taylor she was shot 6 times and killed in a raid by police in louisville kentucky and now the warrior for her family has slammed the grand jury investigating this shooting calling the probe a sham a grand jury in kentucky recommended a minor felony charge against one of the 3 officers for shots that hit a neighboring apartment it did not recommend a murder charge for any of the officers the grand jury decision sparked protests in the u. S. A state of emergency was declared in louisville kentucky 2 Police Officers were shot and injured their own when state taylors relatives and activists are calling for the 3 Police Officers who are all white to be charged with murder or manslaughter. Correspondent define simons is in louisville kentucky tonight. Weve got a nother story in the u. S. About the police africanamericans and accusations of an unfair Justice System. Yeah right and i can tell you the only thing subsiding here is the shock about the decision of the grand jury and the attorney general yesterday saying that. Basically none of the 3 officers involved in the shooting of Brianna Taylor are charged with anything and that was 1st of course yesterday and set with some shock here of the people of the Africanamerican Community here in the community in lou will kentucky it all which then transferred very wary and. Set itself in in anger and in frustration and in outrage and that ousted outrage is still very much alive even today 2nd day 2nd night possibly of more violent protests in louisville we talked to a few people about how they feel about what happened yesterday and what they expect for the day and how about we listen in to that i come here just to pray. And pray for the poor souls. I mean what happened yesterday was horrible but i feel like weve kind of known that something bad was going to happen youre not going to put the whole city in a state of emergency if its good news so not going to say that a lot of people were really surprised but it was still a slap in the face protesting until theres change change in the court system change in the Justice System so until justice starts getting served. No no no turning back at this point. To step on she said well until you have it people here are sorry go ahead and i want to say they have it people people here are really adamant about about keeping this fight and driving this fight forward for them it is a and i use his terminology lenny and from them taking their terminology to fight a fight for just. This which they dont seem to get to at least thats what they think and what they see and take from the decision as it was made by the attorney general yesterday the attorney general of kentucky he is a republican and he is a black man has that been a mitigating factor in dissent all stephon. No not at all. Sure that i mean these are definitely not the most popular person right now in the Africanamerican Community and in a with those people who are really trying to one way or another trying to a push their cause forward and that is really against Police Brutality and against racial bias in the Justice System for them hes as guilty as charged and again there is absolutely no way that anybody here understands how he could come to a decision like this or and their way its getting a little bit more complicated he had to ask questions to the grand jury he had to put a case in front of the grand jury and that is the limit for a grand jury to decide on but apparently he didnt even come forward with anything remotely at least thats the speculation here manned by many anything remotely as charging or or suggesting that those 3 offices were in any way responsible for the death of beyond a tailor so yeah that is a tough pill to swallow here for a lot of people in years to find you have covered stories similar to this George Floyd Killing in minneapolis the shooting of jacob blake in conjunction wisconsin and and now this the shooting death when you when you compare all of these stories what stands out about this story here the Briana Taylor story. I think for the real attender story we need to remember that this is she worse killed before George Floyd George floyd yes blew the lid of everything. We all witnessed this we talked about at the time many many times and and i was myself standing on the streets of minneapolis and was in literally in shock and awe of what happened there what paradigm change or shift happened there now Briana Taylor protests were ongoing before that actually people here are protesting for 120 days for the last 3 months almost every day its a little bit under the radar but theyre absolutely determined to not let this go to not let this go this is actually something which you can attest to protesters in can osha in minneapolis in anywhere around the United States and definitely here in louisville kentucky they will not they will not let this go it will go on and on and on it will simmer down maybe a little bit but then it will again its not going away do you see the 70 you see these major stories impacting the election next month i mean do you get the impression that africanamericans then are galvanized and will turn out in greater numbers on the lection day. I would im tempted to say yes i think i think i want to be. Be on the side of caution here i think it will have an impact i think the africanamerican vote will be in numbers bigger than it was in 2016 for example but i do not im not really sure how to assess it definitively and how much of this specific topic will drive ever get americans to the to the polls i would think and many many experts say yes of course is will be a driving factor that this is the case but im also a little bit cautious about this because theres many many other issues. All right. Thats Live Television for you the stuff on stuff i saw in different counties in louisville kentucky stefan as always thank you. Where there have been more than 16000 new coronavirus cases in just the past day in france the soaring infection rate in the country has also seen hospitalizations from coban 1000 reach a high not seen since early june and this is prompted the french government to introduce extra restrictive measures to contain the virus mainly in larger cities bars will either have restricted hours or closed completely gyms will shut down and no more than 10 people will be allowed to gather in Public Places but the government says its determined to avoid another walk down given these severe social and economic consequences. Thats what the government says lets take this now to paris to reporter John Lawrence and good evening to you john that mean how close in france are we tonight to a new nationwide lockdown. Well the whole point of the measures that the government Just Announced is to avoid another economically catastrophic lockdown the government furlough schemes are coming to an end here is in some other countries and the unemployment figures are starting to rise very warningly and france is facing a huge economic catastrophe because of its 1st lockdown so it really wants to avoid another one and its hoping that these new restrictions are going to prevent this rise getting out of hand and prevent from to having to go into a 2nd lockdown situation how much faith is there among the public that these targeted and localized to these many lock downs if you will that they will be effective. Well as a good question i havent seen any. Opinion polls on these very recent announcements but looking over the last few months every new restriction has been extremely computer you know when you ask people. Should you prevent people getting sweet yes you know should be you prevent politics yes you prevent you know she didnt close things down yes and the compulsory wearing a face mask his species which is a really took off in a big way in france very very popular and its interesting to see though that some of the sun the cities that have been targeted by these new measures its a little bit of kit that theyre specially in not saying not say its been singled out paris is telling them not say we has a traditional rivalry you are a real problem since you know you know you copious it you coded numbers a really bad and were going to have to close your eyes all together for 2 weeks you know then you just know this is being treated in the same way and. Into the mirror of mass a saying this is just really do need to consult me and this is unjustified so there is a little bit of unhappiness yes and we know that the number of new infections in france just as were seeing in the u. K. And in spain the number is alarmingly high the question then is will the number of new hospitalizations also increase and if we see that rise can the french Healthcare System can it cope with that kind of surge. Well i think weve seen. 783 new hospital admissions in the whole of france over the last 24 hours. Those homes are already rising and i think the government would be making ricin and then its meant as an ounce when these taking these new measures if you will also see hospital admissions increase and this having been said we are nowhere near the catastrophic levels that we saw in france in the not to april and cast your mind back to 2 those months the hospitals in eastern france and even difference even in the paris region were completely overwhelmed you know full weeks 3 weeks things were really really really out of hand and were a long way from that situation now even in drug program city must say 30 percent believe the decoded that capacity is being used at the moment so were a long way from that sort of. Repeat potential catastrophe lets hope then that these targeted and localized restrictions the sort of aid do the job at least until there is a vaccine sometime next year we have a reporter John Lawrence and joining us tonight with the latest on the situation in france john thank you. In the western and german state of north rhinewestphalia investigators say theyve discovered 16 new instances of xeno phobia among Police Officers now thats in addition to the 100 state Police Officers already accused of spreading racist or extreme right wing views but accusations of such behavior among Police Officers they are not confined to just one german state our next report comes to his tonight from the eastern state of saxony. 009 maya always wanted to be a police man he was idealistic and wanted to stand up for whats right. But things did not go to plan during his Police Training in leipsic he was exposed to racist and far right language. If we had lunch together and talk turned to politics a colleague would say id rather vote for the nazis than the greens my jaw dropped i was shocked but for a lot of the others it was as if we were just talking about the weather. And this type of talk was not confined to zoo months fellow recruits he also heard it from his police instructors. In western trainer said we need to learn to shoot straight because there are so many refugees coming to germany of course i find that blatantly racist and completely inappropriate coming from a police officer. And there was more shocking language in the trainees social Media Chatter im. Not excusing the use an example of a want to ask message from cop does not and we hate all africans but it is in a phobic racist statement that i absolutely reject. The man decided to pull out of his Police Training we contacted the Police Authority in saxony they sent an email dismissing the allegations. No evidence has been established of unprofessional behavior relating to these Police Officers no indications of continuing racist or anti semitic beliefs have come to light in Disciplinary Proceedings or other internal appraisals. Recent incidents in north rhinewestphalia do however point to the existence of far right attitudes within the police 29. 00 offices that were suspended after they circulated hate speech against foreigners on social media. The Police Trade Union rejects any suggestion that far right believes something become institutional. Now has an important i hope i dont think its a problem for the German Police as a whole Police Officers by their nature are conservative that doesnt make them right wing my colleagues and i stand up for order in justice i dont believe there is any problem of structural extremism even if there are isolated instances. Not by tomorrow also denies that the exposure of far right groups within the police erodes Public Confidence in officialdom. I dont think public trust has fundamentally declined confidence may have cracked a little but it will recover of the next few months. No my ad doesnt see it that way he believes the biggest problem within the police is the failure to recognize that change is required. I think there is no culture of learning from previous mistakes its a basic problem not when mistakes are made everyone agrees to sweep things under to cop it rather than making so the same mistakes are not repeated but we sure. Dont talk about most is if you dont. Call this form a Police Recruit the overriding obstacle to institutional reform is a misguided collective spirit.
