city's current district attorney who drew heat for saying the city's 524 murders so far this year somehow isn't a crisis. the d.a., by the way, trying to do some cleanup, now calling his comments inarticulate. i should point out we did invite him to join us tonight on the program but his office has not responded, but the former mayor is here. michael nutter, great to see you again. did you receive the sort of apology that you thought was appropriate with him saying it was inarticulate? >> well, i don't think his comments were inarticulate. they were just ignorant. it's not me certainly he needs to apologize to. he needs to apologize to the now 524 families, the thousands who have a family member killed. or the thousands of people who have been shot. it was a full-on statement filled with, you know, his level of rhetoric and inability to accept responsibility for his role. it's not the sole role, but the d.a. has a role to play in criminal justice, in prosecuting violent criminals.
