Tonight, in a disturbing and dwrafic video obtained by abc news, a Police Officer shoots an unarmed man repeatedly as the man tries to flee. Now the officer has been charged with murder. Abcs Steve Osunsami is on the ground in South Carolina where the video will almost certainly be a key piece of evidence in this case. Reporter this chilling video, obtained by abc news. [ gunfire ] reporter Police OfficerMichael Slager fires victim. It happened saturday morning at this intersection in South Carolina. It was a routine traffic stop. Officer slager pulled scott over for a broken taillight. According to the Police Report scott ran away and the officer chased him up the street behind a pawnshop and into this empty lot. Black male tee shirt. Reporter this abandoned lot becomes a killing field, and its all recorded on a cell phone by an eyewitness no one sees. First officer slager appears to reach out toward scott. Then scott breaks free running away with what appears to be a line attached from the officers stun gun. Thats when officer slager fires his gun eight times at scotts back as he tries to get away, and he falls to the ground. Officer slager walks over to him. He cuffs the dying man, and then he and another officer come to look scott over. Authorities believe five of the eight shots fired hit scott and that two of those bullets killed him. He needs to know that that wasnt an animal that he killed. He was my son reporter his family is beyond hurt. I lost him. I absolutely lost it. I knew that this started from a traffic stop. And im like, how can you go from a traffic stop to someone being dead . Reporter there were bench warrants out for scotts arrest because of unpaid child support. Scotts family says thats no reason for what they see as an execution. I never had a problem with him. Doing anything stealing from us or bringing the wrong people home. Reporter over police radio and in the incident report slager says he fired in selfdefense, that scott had taken his taser, causing him to worry for his safety. Shots fired. Subject is down. Reporter but in the video, its not clear who has control of the stun gun. You can only see that the stun gun cord is between the two men. It does appear from the video that slager walks back and appears to drop something next to scott but its not clear what. We were in city offices while local police were seeing the video for the first time. I can tell you that as the result of that video and the bad decision made by our officer, he will be charged with murder. Reporter tonight officer slager is behind bars and he has been denied bail. Whats happening tonight in South Carolina is so different than the shooting death of Michael Brown in ferguson missouri that sparked anger and protests across the country. And not just in the details of the case. This is nothing like the ferguson case. In ferguson the more you dig into the case, the more you read the report, the more the Police Officers account is supported. Here, you see this video. And it tells the story. And its a story that seems almost indefensible from the Police Officers perspective. Reporter in a world where theres a camera in every pocket, i asked about the importance of the video in the News Conference just hours ago. If it werent for this video would he be charged with murder at this point . Thats a question let me ask the chief. Youre asking us to speculate. The video is very demonstrative of exactly what happened. Without the video, it would be difficult to ascertain exactly what did occur. Reporter they say in this case, an officer violated protocol. Police officers can use lethal force discharge their firearm when they believe that their life and safety is in jeopardy or the life and safety of individuals in the vicinity is in jeopardy as well. Its very difficult to make a legitimate case for the use of lethal force when the suspect is running away in the manner depicted in the video. Reporter the police chief almost in tears clearly overcome with emotion as he condemned the officers actions, saying this one policeman doesnt represent them all. Been around me a long time, and you know that i think that all these Police Officers on this force, men and women, are like my children. So you tell me how a father would react to seeing his child do something. Ill let you answer that yourself. Reporter but the Police Departments reaction was definitive. If convicted of murder slager could face the Death Penalty or a term of 30 years to life in prison. This is not going to be an easy defense. This video is devastating evidence against this Police Officer. I just know that theres two families that are in bad way right now. Our prayers and thoughts go with both of the families. Reporter tonight scotts family taking some comfort in the authorities quick action. All we wanted was the truth. And i think through the process weve received the truth. And we cant get my brother back. And my family is in deep mourning for that. But through the process justice has been served. And i dont, i dont think that all Police Officers are bad cops. Reporter we were with scotts family and his three children tonight after they heard the news. We have a little bit more of a process to do because a charge is not being convicted. Once a conviction is put in place, ill feel a whole lot better. Reporter the family is considering filing a civil suit. I will miss my [ crying ] just pray it doesnt happen to anybody else. Reporter for nightline, im Steve Osunsami in north charleston, South Carolina. Next the woman who fled a radical fundamentalist church and then had to go back for her own children. And later on nightline, Julia Louisdreyfus talks president ial ambitions. And im arnold palmer, professional golfer. Know what we have in common . We talked to our doctors about treatment with xarelto®. Me, when i had a blood clot in my leg that could have traveled to my lungs. Thats why i took xarelto®, too. Xarelto® is proven to treat and help reduce the risk of dvt and pe blood clots. I took xarelto® for afib. An irregular heartbeat that can lead to a stroke from a blood clot. Xarelto® is proven to reduce the risk of stroke in people with afib, not caused by a heart valve problem. Hey, well im glad we got together. For people with afib currently well managed on warfarin there is limited information on how xarelto® and warfarin compare in reducing the risk of stroke. I tried warfarin before, but the blood testing routine and dietary restrictions had me off my game. Tell me about it. Lets see, golf clinic, or blood clinic . Ooh, thats a tough one. Not this time. Not with xarelto®. Anything else . Ill have another arnold palmer. Ok. Make mine a kevin nealon. Really, brian . Hey, safety first. Like all blood thinners, dont stop taking xarelto® without talking to your doctor as this may increase your risk of a blood clot or stroke. While taking xarelto® you may bruise more easily and it may take longer for bleeding to stop. Xarelto® may increase your risk of bleeding if you take certain medicines. Xarelto® can cause serious bleeding and in rare cases may be fatal. Get help right away if you develop unexpected bleeding unusual bruising, or tingling. If you have had spinal anesthesia while on xarelto® watch for back pain or any nerve or musclerelated signs or symptoms. Do not take xarelto® if you have an artificial heart valve, or abnormal bleeding. Tell your doctor before all planned medical or dental procedures. Before starting xarelto® tell your doctor about any conditions such as kidney, liver, or bleeding problems. Xarelto® has been prescribed more than 11 million times in the u. S. And that numbers growing. Like your guys scores. With xarelto® there is no regular blood monitoring, and no known dietary restrictions. Treatment with xarelto® was the right move for us. Ask your doctor about xarelto®. You may be able to get up to 12 months at no cost. Youre about to witness one mothers dramatic and highstakes fight. This is no normal custody battle. When this woman decided to leave the flds the fundamentalest sect of the Mormon Church she left behind her children. She went back for them only to be confronted by a crowd. Heres dan harris. Reporter this is what happened when a mother tried to retrieve her four children from a community dominate the by the flds, fund amountalist mormons who practice polygamy. That is sabrina right there in the van swarmed by women in traditional prairie dresses. It was eight years ago that she left the flds, a group still allegedly controlled by their imprisoned, pedophile prophet warren jeffs who is doing time for marrying and sexually assaulting underage girls. When she decided to leave her husband and quit the church she left behind her four young children. In the flds the church teaches that you that the church owns the children. Reporter long time activist and former member flora jessup says she was on the phone with kesner during much of the time that her van was surrounded. They were kicking her vehicle, trying to put chickens into the vehicle. Reporter in the years since Sabrina Kesner left the church she has remarried and had another child. But while she did have visitation rights with her other kids she was only recently awarded full custody. However, when she showed up this past friday here this this remote Desert Community along the utah arizona border the childrens aunt who had been caring for the kids, refused to hand them over. A crowd formed and the standoff began. Were not in america anymore, basically . Oh, no. You basically drove off the map. Reporter i recently spent time here with sam brower whos been investigating the flds for years and was on scene when the situation with sabrina played out. What is life like for flds kids . Very mundane. They dont have toys. They have tools to play with. You dont see any bicycles. You dont see any toys. Reporter brower who wrote a bestselling book about his experiences with the fldss says little girls here are groomed to be brides to older men, and the boys are trained to be workers. The boys are slaves basically. Their hope in life is that to be assigned some girl that could be their wife. Reporter but the odds are slim, he says because there are lots of older men here and not enough females to go around, which is why according to brower, many young men are simply kicked out or runaway. What happens in your home and with your family and what happens to your loved ones is hell. Reporter when this young man, willie steve, who came from a family of 38 children and three wives, left the church, he went to live with a foster family who had to teach him how to read. Dog. No, no. Thats it. Dog and then dogs. Reporter he says he got so little education in the church because hed been put to work starting at age 8. Youre doing flooring, unpacking rolls of carpet. They work you to the outer end. Reporter ten months after he left the church willie steve had begun to reclaim his lost childhood, taking a roerkt ride balancing on a board, learning how to navigate facebook. I learned that i can walk away from life and leave everything behind. Happy birthday. Reporter as he celebrated his 19th birthday he made a wish for a family of his own but he was quick to add, not a polygamist family. Ill stick with one. Reporter this is exactly the kind of future that Sabrina Kesner is apparently hoping to give her children the opportunity for a life outside of the flds. And as you watch this standoff drag on for hours and hours, you might ask, where were the local police . The Marshal Service that patrols these two towns . The marshals are an extension of this organization. Reporter on my recent visit to the area i conducted this exclusive interview with barlow. He said the officers would work hand in hand with church security. Theyre sometimes known as the god squad. And while we in town we believe they followed us repeatedly. Can we ask you a quick question . Barlow is now cooperating with federal investigators who say the local governments here are controlled by the church a charge these members of the town council didnt seem eager to discuss when i showed up at one of their meetings. Its a pretty serious charge. I would think that you would want to answer it yourselves. An attorney for that town Council Later insisted that officials here do not take orders from the church but it is clear from this incident with Sabrina Kesner just how many people here are loyal to warren jeffs. It was only after a search warrant was obtained that the children were released and backed inside the van which drove off. On her Facebook Page tonight, this message. Thank you defenders of children and all those involved to help reunite me with my babies. Our deepest gratitude to everyone who reached out to us. Its going to be difficult for several months if not years. These kids have been taught that their mothers a delve, that shes apostate shes evil wicked. Their salvation depends on them getting back to the prophet. Reporter but the uproar over sabrinas children shows just how far this community has to go. So where do you predict things are going . It could go anywhere. I worry a lot that there could be some kind of violence. That would be warrens style, to go out in some kind of blaze of glory, as a martyr. Reporter this is dan harris along the utah arizona border. And next shes used to playing the sidekick, first on seinfeld, next on veep. Now julia lou we dreyfus is stepping into the spotlight. Our brain with centrum silver men. Multivitamins with 20 more vitamin d. My heart beats 100,000 times a day sending oxygen to my muscles. Again . So i can lift even the most demanding weights.

Reporter madam president . Oh, no way. No, you didnt. Reporter its a suite fit for a president. Isnt this great . Or at the least someone who plays one on tv. Julia louisdreyfus plays selena meyer on hbos veep. An irrelevant Vice President turned incompetent commander in chief. So help me god.
