now it is time for the last word with ali velshi, who is in for lawrence o donnell. i appreciate, it alex. we look on nights like this for any sense of a silver lining, any sense of progress. if accountability comes to people faster, then there is something. but when you watch videos like this and you think, how much progress we have not made, it is disheartening. thank you for your reporting. we will see you next week. happy to share. heinous, reckless and inhumane. that is how the police chief in memphis described the video footage that was released tonight, showing the deadly encounter between tyre nichols and five police officers, who have been fired and charged with his murder. the 29 year old died from the injuries sustained into confrontations with police captured in roughly one hour of footage from police body cam footage and neighborhood security camera footage. the incident happened on january the 7th, 8:30 pm at night. the footage does not capture the and i

before them so they knew you had a helicopter hit there? radios have a limited range. by the time i got there, they had gotten shot down. five members of the rescue team, including three army rangers, were killed. i think everyone that followed me out there that day, is no less deserving of the award. adding to the controversy, and interview slabinski recorded 2005, and which he described shooting the corpse of an enemy combatant. he was dead, but i shot him about 20 times in the leg. and every time you shoot him, he would cook up, you could see his body twitched, it was like again. why did you say that? if you could hear that whole club, you would have heard that that was an enemy combatant. he was still actively engaging. there was some criticism about a 2007 operation where you re accused of sending blue squadron out to bring a head back on a platter.
