Acting with extreme indifference to the value of human life. He could get up to five years in prison. Breonna taylor worked as an emt early march 13 was in her apartment with her boyfriend when three Police Officers broke down her door in a no knock warrant. Attorney general said six bullets hit but only one killed her. Investigators say they never found drugs in the apartment. The foreign for the family called the lack of charges out rage us. Matt reporting in frankfurt kentucky at this hour. The Kentucky Attorney general was often emotional as he announced the findings of the grand jury. He says as a black man he understands how painful this is for the black community and was speaking on behalf of his team they were search informing the truth and some of the scrutiny receive was misplaced because they did their best to investigate this case the attorneygeneral saying twice the criminal law is not always meant to respond what he calls a tragedy. Big news of the day up in of the officers charged with murder. One officer hankinson charged with wanton endangerment. The attorneygeneral says cosgrove and massingly were authorized to use force because they were shot at first. The Kentucky Attorney general said they only had information about carrying out an attorney general says evidence shows officers knocked and announced at Breonna Taylors apartment this was not a no knock warrant which he says was corroborated by independent witness the attorneygeneral revealing Breonna Taylor was fired six times on shot fatal the attorneygenerals office could not determine who fire it. In a statement the officers say they entered the apartment a male ketdz Walker Holding a gun in shooting stance walker testified he fired the first shot hitting one of the officers in the leg here is the Kentucky Attorney general. Criminal homicide encompasses the taking of a life by another. While there are six possible homicide charges under kentucky law, these charges are not applicable to the facts before us because our investigations show and the grand jury agreed that mattingly and cosgrove were justified in their return of deadly fire after having been fired upon by Kenneth Walker. The attorney general did not reveal the age or the race makeup of the grand jury bill. Thank you. Well be back you as news warrants. I bring in former homicide attorney ted williams. You have represented Police Officers charged with excessive. You were attorney for attorney offered police in washington. I would like to offer my condolences to family of Breonna Taylor. Heres what we heard. No video or body cam can show what took place there. The search warrant was a no knock search warrant but the officers did in fact knock. It is undisputed there is testimony and evidence that they did knock. Mattingly entered the apartment first and he was shot by Kenneth Walker the boy friend of Breonna Taylor and he admitted he fired first. Mattingly and cosgrove returned fire within seconds and according to the fbi it was cosgroves bullet that killed Breonna Taylor. But then theres hankinson. Hankinson was from another vantage point. He fired ten times an his bullets went into another apartment and that is what hes charged with. And i understand hes not charged with shooting Breonna Taylor. Hes charged with shooting recklessly into that apartment. I can tell you and our viewers i think the government is going to have a very, very difficult time proving a case against hankinson because hankinsons argument is going to be that my colleagues were being fired on and i used split second decision and i fired to save my colleagues. And i think that that could carry the day for hankinson. I was looking at reaction ben crump attorney represents the family of Breonna Taylor had a settlement weeks ago. He says its outragers that none of the charges relate to the bullet that hit taylor. What do you think . I think viewers need to understand all this is lawfully the way its supposed to be. Theyre lawfully entering to serve a warrant an someone fires on them. They have a right to return fire and that is what took place in this case. Kenneth walker the boy friend of miss taylor fired first at the officers and hit one of them in the side and that officer and the other officers on that scene and right to return fire. Why do you make the case its going to be hard for the government to prove the burden against the officers charged today . Because theres a word legally in the law called intent. They have to show not only did he fire recklessly into that apartment but he intenned to fire into owes other parents and while he conditions injure anybody it was intent on the part of hankinson. There was no intent as far as i could see. If i was representing hankinson i would show that he fired with split second judgment to save his colleagues. If you were representing him would you encourage him to cut a deal . No. Why not . Because i dont think that the government has the evidence to prove that hankinson violated the law. I think that theres some circumstanceal evidence there are case made with circumstanceal evidence but i doengt think that is overwhelmingly circumstantial evidence to prove their case. The fbi will continue its own investigation but you heard the a. G. In tubing say that he does not expect more charges to come from this. Would you . Well, he doesnt. What happened and our viewers need to understand the fbi is conducting what is known as a civil rights investigation and the federal government can in fact bring additional charges if you remember in the rodney king case the officers there were exonerated in the state an local court the federal government brought charges against them and they were found guilty on federal offenseses. So in this instance the federal government can bring charges. I said last question. One more. What did you think of the attorney general in his explanation ted and question and answer back and forth . Okay. I think he was very professional. I think he was deeply pained. Hes a black man like i am. He was seeking adjustments and i think he did the right and proper thing here and what our viewers need to understand it was not up to the attorney general to bring threes charges. It was a grand jury that brought the charges. Thanks ted. Ker view 9 00 local time in louisville. Ted thanks. We will talk about soon. Meantime on the trail this came up today. Kamala harris commenting. Joe biden meeting with voters in north carolina. Jackie from wilmington. This is joe bidens first visit to where President Trump focused time an attention and early absentee voting is underway. Biden took questions in a black economic summit in charlotte after launching two ads in the state featuring black Business Owners with the Trump Administration handling of the pandemic. Biden talked about the Africanamerican Community was economically vulnerable and discussed a plan that would serve minority communities. After the news broke regarding charges in the case bion was asked how he would reimagine the Justice Department Civil Rights Division after four years of donald trump. The Justice Department has turned to a private law firm. It has represented him on women who accuse him of rape. Where does that come from . And the Justice Department under my administration will be totally independent of me. I will not direct them who to prosecute how to prosecute what to prosecute. Meantime as developments indicate the president will likely have the senate vote to move forward with a Supreme Court nominee. Biden and harris are relatively quiet. Biden didnt say whether he is vetting nominees answering request concerns about what happens with womens rights an health care. Biden declined to make public his list and said he will pick a nominee and earned the endorsement of cindy mccain.

We will see if he brings up the decision on breonna. For more on policing caroline. Based on what we think we know did the grand jury so target it right . I dont think there is getting it right in this case frankly. I think what it shows is that our Justice System is just inadequate to address these issues but transcends the individual case here. I think the legal system, its like trying to fit a square a role. The legal system is simply unable to address this type of situation. I think the tragedy of this case happened well before everything that we are discussing happened. It happened in the way that these Police Officers went about preparing. They should never have gone in there the first place. That was the tragedy in this case. Theres a warrant law in kentucky no knock warrant. We are told that was changed prior to approaching that apartment. As we heard from the a. G. The officers knocked and waited for an answer. The case you make is different. If youre judgeing the law here what do you change . How do you change it . I know the a. G. Said that. According to the officers thats what happened. I think theres a different story according to who was in the home that evening. They did not hear the officers announce themselves and i know theres a discrepancy over that but the fact is these officers didnt have their facts straight to begin w. They didnt know who was in that home so regardless whether or not they should have or should not have received a knock warrant i dont think thats the issue. Andy mccarthy says the law cant fix the problem. That seems to be what youre saying. I am. Im hesitant to make a fact specific argument even though im inclined to as a criminal defense attorney because in the law everything is fact specific whereas you talk about a case like this taken on global trend send e sendens a lot of times the facts dont square up with what people want to hear so thats i think thats what the case here. Two of the Police Officers werent charged here. Many people feel that viscerally morally feel that is a tragedy. Back to your first answer you said the law was insufficient. Thats what youre arguing here. The grand jury did not find those two officers rose to the level of what was presented to them. They have to take that seriously. They cant react out of a visceral moral feeling and have to apply the law to the facts it dont know the facts as well as they obviously know them but again, this is why theres such a frustration between what we all want in this case or just a complete and total reputed creation of what happened that evening and just justice for all the victims in this case and done square with the law has to offer.

Back to louisville in a moment watching the images from the streets of louisville, kentucky the Breonna Taylor reaction continues so well get you back there momentarily. There were developments in the fight to fill the vacant Supreme Court seat intensifying before saturday with the president says he will make his pick public. Ken starr former independent counsel whitewater investigation good day to you Lindsey Graham put a timeline as chair of Judiciary Committee believes he can do the hearings 12th of october and vote around halloween. How does that schedule sound to you and factor into the election you think ken . It certainly sounds reasonable. History teaches us that justices have been confirmed in the matter of two or three weeks and the judiciary chairman senator graham is extremely experienced so he knows and assumes that the nominee whoever she is going to be is going to be extremely well qualified and so forth so i think its realistic in terms of the election. I think its terrific. We can have a great debate in the political debates between the president and the vice president. What do we want the Supreme Court to look like . Lets have a good nationwide discussion about this. Frankly, the story really seemed to shift yesterday when mitt romney came out publicly endorsed Going Forward with this. Who do you believe the nominee could be or will be . I dont know who it will be but its certain threw odds on favorite, famous last words is judge barrett of the seventh circuit. She is a favorite. She was a favorite back for what became the Brett Kavanaugh nomination one of the faifrpts and there favorites and there are reasons for that. A person of abiding faith but a towering intellect first in her class won so many accolades mom of 7 including a special needs child and managed to balance this while being a superb pooech teacher at notre dame law school. Shes odds on favorite. Judge lagoa is a bit like san da day oconnor. She will relatively little experience when she was nominated. Im looking at the reuters wire cross from the white house. President apparently said a moment ago he thinks the election will end up at the Supreme Court. And thats why its important he says to have nine justices. Your reaction on that. I completely agree with the president and i also agree completely with justice sotomayor. A 44 Court Equally divided is recipe for mischief. The court needs to be at full strength but especially perhaps a serious election contest coming up. Two more quick ones then ken. He went on to say the judiciary chair senator graham would not even have to hold a hearing for the nominee since the process will go quickly. React on that and do you believe senator Dianne Feinstein age 87 will chair this committee the hearings for the democratic side yes or no . I dont know about senator feinstein. I appreciate her comment that she was not in favor of packing the court in terms of the filibuster and so forth. But no, there has to be a hearing with all due respect for the president. This is too important for their not to be a confirmation hearing where all the senators get to ask questions and the nation gets to assess the nominee. Thank you ken starr juggling a couple of stories. Appreciate you coming on. Back to louisville protestors continue to march as the day turns to night. Family Attorney Ben Crump expecting to speak. Geraldo welcome. When that tape becomes available we will play it. What do you think of what was laid out before us . You have to react bill both as an attorney and a person. As a person this is a double tragedy. Breonna taylor has become americas sweetheart unlike many of these cases this is a woman who was a hero in life an emergency room technician who did absolutely nothing wrong. She was in her own bed in her own house. Theres a yes so so many people have absolute broken hearts and we have to sympathize with what is going on. I predicted this would happen. However the facts in the case were very difficult. The cops did get shot at exercising a legal warrant. When that happens there almost always is deadly force. The fact that no cops were charged seemed to jibe with the evidence as i saw it but i come back to what i said earlier bill, Breonna Taylor theres a reason shes on all these magazine covers and why so many are weeping now again once in march when it happened and now to see the officers involved basically avoiding any kind of punishment for their action because their action were not illegal is up detective hankinson firing all over the place an rounds landing in a house of a pregnant woman who was spared. We had a criminal attorney she made the case the law was not sufficient as written. Do you believe theres truth to that . I do not and i was list inning to the attorney and the attorney seemed to capable. However the law here is very clear. What are you going to charge these cops with . Theyre illegal warrants. They got shot at. Its the heat of action. How many times have i followed the officers in on those executions of warrants and have fire returned . Its a perilous maybe you want to abolish these totally. Maybe it was a no knock warrant they knocked and the grand jury did not jury did not disagree so theres tragedy on tragedy. Theres reason aside from the wonder of this womans life the city of louisville paid 12 million to settle the civil case. They recognize the horror or tragedy but thats not necessarily criminal. We go now to been crump live. Thats real. I know the president seems to suggest and the attorney general barr suggest they dont think systemic racism exists but we keep having exhibit after exhibit after exhibit where theres george floyd in minneapolis, minnesota, whether its jacob blake in kenosha, kons, whether its dijon kizzee in los angeles riding a bicycle while black, whether it is Breonna Taylor, shes in her apartment. Shes in the sanctity of her home the place where you are expected to be safe and the fact that while america is dealing with the covid19 pandemic we in black america are not only dealing with that pandemic but we are also dealing with the pandemic which represents the first year african slaves were brought to america and this went for 401 years we have been dealing with systematic racism and oppression that finds Police Killing us, outside the courtroom and the system killing us inside the courtroom. So thats why we are filing this lawsuit to take on the entire system that continues to perpetuate this 1619 pandemic in the United States of america and dont you think for a second that trey is to the exhibit a for tempe, arizona because i know may not be able to understand this. But the really for black people in america and brown people in america when the police point a gun at you, i dont care what the circumstances are. There is always a Great Potential that it could end up fatal. So im just thankful when i look at treys mother and father who are present with us today, that trey is here with us. I mean, can you imagine . That is ben crump he tweeted the outrageous in the case of Breonna Taylor. Race an violence in our cities will be a topic at tuesdays debate. I bring in martha and chris. We might get interrupted by the president. We are just getting initial reactions martha to what we are hearing from kentucky thus far. What do you think . Potentially a very difficult situation. I think the outcome here is not what a lot of people wanted. Theyre on the streets a lot of blockades in place a lot of buildings boarded up and we certainly hope that things remain peaceful there and it was interesting watching Daniel Cameron who became a star at the rnc at the convention a few weeks back, bill, really having a clearly a challenging time presenting what were the findings not of him but of the grand jury in this case and they brought indictments against only one of the detectives the one who fired wantonly into an apartment that was next door. And thankfully didnt hit anyone in there so its a frustrating situation a lot of people who wanted to see a different form of justice in this case and does go back to the discussion of these warrants and whether or not there was a knock that came first. They say they have a witness who says he heard it and me was upstairs. So this is just reflective and tragic and i think its very much on the minds of a lot of americans today. The president was asked about this and the Supreme Court hearing that is coming up and his nominee under the twominute warning. Ill get to my colleague chris on this. You know, we have a problem in the United States today about false expectation and as i listen to ben crump say that through litigation he would eliminate the stain of racism he says was part of the 1619 berth of racism in america. I thought how would anybody ever be satisfied . When you have leaders making promises that we will have every hurt and heartbreak and racism and everything that somehow a Court Decision or something is going to solve that, you are setting yourself up for hard work and ferguson. Martha six bullets hit Breonna Taylor one said fate ol. Officer hankinson fired ten shots apparently outside the bedroom where breonna and her boyfriend why sleeping. The truth is before us. The a. G. In kentucky, the grand jury has spoken. We must ask where do we go from here. Now ready for the president. Here we go to the white house. On saturday the name of the person i chose for this most important of all positions and i think we should go very quickly. You see the republicans are very united. As far as timing is concerned, we were elected. We have a lot of time. One justice was picked in 19 days, 19 days. We could do four at that rate or five and we have a lot of time. Before the election and after the election. We go to january 20. I think its better if you go before the election because i think the scam the democrats are pulling this, scam will be before the United States Supreme Court and i think having a 44 situation is not a good situation. I think it should be 8oor 90 but just in case it would be more political than it should be i think its very important to have a ninth justice. Are you fully confident that Lindsey Graham can get through this the senate prior to november 3rd . I can only say we are giving a person i would say any of the five frankly five women in the finalists and theyre all world class brilliant great in every respect from academic. [inaudible] we can do it very quickly easily. From way heard he wouldnt have to hold a hearing. Hes going to i would think. He wouldnt even actually have to home one and you know, most of those people are young and just went through the process. Many of them just went through the process recently so its not leak gee lets look at papers 15 years only. I think lindsey is going to call the hearing. You cant call it until you have the candidate an once we have the nominee, i will wait to hear what the date is but from that point i feel it would fairly quick. I damage imagine it would be anything else. The republicans most of them have already made their intentions very clear, even josh. So i think thats a tough vote right now. So i think we are in great shape. Let me ask you that question, josh. John is asking a questioning about timing. I think we could get it done. We could do it with a complement of hearings. Justice stevens was confirmed in 19 days, ginsburg in 40 days. Weve got the time and means to do it and i think we should have a vote before the election for the reason the president articulates and i think we will. Do you believe justice was served in the Breonna Taylor case in kentucky and what is your message to the black community who believe perhaps justice was not served by the decision of the grand jury in kentucky . My message is i love the black community and done more for the black community than any other president and i say with a possible exception of Abraham Lincoln and i mean with opportunities zones an criminal Justice Reform with principal reform, with what weve done for historically black universities colleges schools what weve done nobody that is done more. Abraham lincoln lets give him the nod but beyond that nobody has done more. I love the black community. I dont know enough about it. I heard a decision was just made. Weve been together here so we havent discussed it but after i see what the decision is ill have a comment on it okay . Thank you all very much. Thank you very much. Pretty true to the headline we mentioned about 15 minutes ago by way of reuters the president said with regard to the cases talking about criminal Justice Reform. Prior to that with the Supreme Court announcement in the offing the president said we were elected, we have time. Its important to have a ninth justice with regard to the election of 2020. Coming up the process will go quickly. Back quickly with martha and chris for a thought what we might anticipate at kentucky an beyond. Martha. I thought it was interesting the president said that he called the election a scam. It obviously hasnt happened yet and wont happen until november third but the ground is being softened for all kinds of interpretations what happens on that day on both sides and thats something we need to pay a lost attention tomorrow. He said in case its more political than it should be he wants to make sure there are nine justices in place and it certainly feels like the momentum is there to make that happen. We do expect that decision on saturday. But with the caveat he needs with Barbara Lagoa friday afternoon in florida so obviously important. Chris do you have a guess who it will be or is it even money on indiana . Yeah i think barrett is the chalk. You would have to figure shes the one. She checks a lot of boxes but florida is tight tight tight and the president was lavishing praise and policy changes on cubanamericans and is very cognizant of the hispanic votes. You can tell by how little he talks about immigration hes courti courting them. Thanks martha an chris. Lots to juggle. Back to kentucky Jason Johnson former Deputy Commissioner with Baltimore Police department sir welcome to our coverage. We are watching peaceful marches in louisville, kentucky. What to you think behalf we heard so far after the announcement from the a. G. . After the announcement it doesnt come as any surprise when you look at the evidence in this case to understand the law that applies to police use of deadly force an understand these officers were actually shot before they discharged their firearms. This seems to be the right outcome especially with the death of Breonna Taylor as tragic it is. Wanton is defined as behavior meaning something is extremely dangerous an doing it anyway in a reckless manner. Do you think the government is going to have a hard time proving its case . Yeah, i think its going to be a difficult case for the government to prove. Any time theres a situation where Police Officers are being actively shot at, literally one officer was shot and other officers returned fire its difficult once youve been in that type of situation to judge the reaction as being reckless when the resks to to use deadly force to save other officers or the officer himself. Weve heard the law was not sufficient to fit this case. We dont believe that but how would you change it if you could. Theres a movement to move the needle on Police Deadly force but never a situation where Police Officers cannot use deadly force when theyre being shot. So i would respectfully disagree. I think the law covers there situation well. I think at least two of the three officers action was lawful within their training and within professional police practice. The information of a their officer hankinson im not sure what the evidence of recklessness is but i look forward to hearing what the state presents. Apparently he fired ten shots an they all went toward a different direction rather than the apartment that was being visited by the officers that morning. Yeah, thats my understanding, bill. Im not entirely certain what his position was what he heard what he saw, what motivated him to act and whether his reaction was reasonable or reckless. We just dont know at this point. Thank you for your time and comments. Thanks bill. Trump administration sanctions on iran. Ill speak with retired Lieutenant General mcmaster the National Security advisor in the west wing what this might mean for relations. Bill belichick really . Youre right, i sshould get a delicious footlong from subway. That would be better. scissors cutting now you look better too. Now get a free footlong when you buy two, because its footlong season when you buy two, i will send out an army to find you in the middle of the darkest night its true, i will rescue you oh, i will rescue you Treasury Department former National Security advisor in the Trump Administration has a new book called battlegrounds, the fight to defend their free world. Thank you for your time. It is great to be with you. Bill first, on russia, you write a lot about russian interference in your book. It doesnt move like this today . I think it does. I think the more that we can impose costs on him and those around him. He is refers to as putin shift. I think it is important to impose costs on them when they make these decisions to attack us in various ways and to help pull us apart to disrupt our confidence. Reduce our confidence in our democratic principles or institutions and their process processes. Bill we will see where that goes. In the middle east, peace deals with israel. It did you that coming . We hoped it would come, but it rarely represents a lot of hard work in the Trump Administration. I think it is very rare that you have good news out of the middle east. Lets take a minute to celebrate it and acknowledge those who worked so hard to facilitate it. United amaranths and to the israelis. I think what it shows us is how countries in their region are really concerned about the threat from iran. They recognize that this 40yearlong proxy war against the great satan, us, and the little satan, israel. Its going to take arab nations to Work Together with us with the israelis. I love the name of it, the abraham accords. Because we are all people of the book. It has been this religious violence that has drug that region down in decades. I think it is very promising as something to celebrate. Do you see a new deal . He has talked about that a lot. I think what is important is to keep the pressure on iran. The idea about relaxing the sanctions were starting arms sales to the iranian regime, and i think we have to acknowledge two things. The nature of the regime and the ideology that drives them. And second, to recognize that they have been waging this proxy war for 4 decades. Its important for us to try to force that regime, the Supreme Leader there to make a choice. You can be treated like a responsible nation or a state a terrorist organization. I have two more minutes and two more topics. Joe biden, what is his biggest challenge in the white house . It is china and the increasing aggression of the chinese party. He thinks we are weekend by our internal divisions. He thinks hes going to be able to come out on top. You ride earlier in the book that you wont take a position on the president but you work for him. Why not . I dont want to get drug down into the partisan politics. I think these crucial challenges that i described in battlegrounds transcend any one individual. I think all of us across the political spectrum, and its time for us to talk about what we agree on. I was in a position of privilege serving military officer. To violate that privilege during the president s term in office i think it would have been a travesty. It would have compromised our professional military ethic. You are the only person in the Foreign Policy establishment who has the president as his or her only client. If president s dont trust their National Security advisors, who are they going to trust . They wont have access to the analysis that you want to National Security advisor bill there are others who have publicly disagreed with your position. I will respect it. Thank you for your time today given all the news thats going around kentucky, thank you, sir. My guest is h. R. Mcmaster. Here we go back to their breaking news in kentucky. It was getting quite active there. What do you see there . Probably 2 minutes ago there was a confrontation between police and some of the protesters. Things started to crack off out here. You can see people on the ground right now being apprehended by police. They have pushed protesters back now several feet into the next intersection, probably a block back. We dont know what sparked this confrontation between police and some of the protesters. It had been very painful for most of the day. They walk almost 4 miles without any major conflict between police and the protesters out here. All of a sudden, there was a line. I dont know if someone pushed into them. It appeared so. Sort of a developing situation. Police are still trying to sort it out. It further and deeper and beyond some of the Police Officers, more people have been zip tied up. You can smell what is some sort of irritant. I dont know exactly what it is. I dont want to say the wrong thing. Its making you cough and burning your eyes. You can tell that things out here have definitely changed from what they wear moments ago, very peaceful. Let me try and get a few questions in here. How would you describe the number of protesters . Is it dozens or higher . Definitely a couple hundred. You could hear the people say come join us. At some of the people joined in and got in their cars and i tried to be a part of this movement in protest. As far as the rest to go, im not seeing more than 12 people out here that are in zip ties or coughs or whatever you want to call them. I wouldnt say that this is a mass amount of people were being arrested. When the police started pushing back, there was a crowd of people going that way getting out of here. I dont know if these are the people who stayed or just wanted to stick around to see what happened. Probably about a dozen people right now. Of the rest of them pushed way back. Bill we have seen the video of block after block of plywood. That means that city was ready. How would you describe this city and even the state police there as they prepare for this . It seems like it. For most of the day, police were set up and they were allowing protesters to move through. Nothing, no interaction or physical confrontations. No damage to any sort of buildings or things like that to speak out. Everyone was chanting and staying in the road on the sidewalk. When a car needed to get through, they would let them through. A little surprised given what has happened for several hours where there really hasnt been anything like this. Police drew a line right over here. They werent going to let them cross it. Maybe that is exactly what happened. Are they saying much to you as they walk on by . Jeff . Do you have me . Are you hearing much from them as they walk on by . Okay, thats an issue. I think we lost our audio connection there with jeff paul. We will try to reestablish that theres a curfew that goes into effect at 9 00 local time that will go until 6 30 in the mome moment.
