in-car camera videos as well as video from a nearby senior citizens center and copies of depositions of officers and citizens that had been taken in a corresponding civil case involving this shooting. it is also important for you to know that my office shared this video with the fbi in november of 2014 after having received it. after reviewing the video in the ronald johnson case, the fbi informed us that they would not participate in the investigation moving forward. at that point, ipra remained the designated investigative agency that would handle that this case, and that is standard procedure. ipra investigates police shootings. from a legal perspective in reviewing this matter for potential criminal charges, the legal question in this case is not whether officer hernandez shot mr. johnson and killed him. those facts are not in dispute. the legal questions are number one, is there stuff evidence
need new leadership in that case. and the data you spoke to, since 2007, there s been 400 cases, two of them resulting in discipline. it defies common sense, when you look at those numbers. that s why we have the leadership we have. there are other steps we ve taken. bill?
