suggests that they actually beat him. attorney parks is right here. maybe something happened in the takedown. my point is that be more transparent and forthcoming. why do we have so much delay in getting us access to that information? if there is more video, or if they do know what happens why do they make the community feel as if they re trying to get their story together instead of being transparent. set the record straight. i m not making it as a guess. i m suggesting i think that needs to be part of the investigation. and certainly that should be something that should be released to the public. darrell parks you have a thought on that? without question. the problem you ve seen with these cases around the country is when authorities failed to be forthright in their information. normally that s what makes the public begin to fester. i ll give you a good example. when we saw the cop that was killed in los angeles, i was so
of contraband. darrell parks, thank you very much for your perspective. we look forward to hearing from the family. what do you think about this? in light of the new numbers, the new reports, tweet us at new day or go to facebook.com/ new day. drama in court on day one of the boston marathon bombing trial, jurors seeing graphic images of the scene. a surprising move by the defense. we ll talk about it all with our legal experts next. s our new trainer ensure active heart health. crowd: yayyyy! heart: i m going to focus on the heart. i minimize my sodium and fat. gotta keep it lean and mean. pear: uh-oh. heart: i maximize good stuff like my potassium. and phytosterols, which may help lower cholesterol. major: i m feeling energized already. new delicious ensure active heart health supports your heart and body, so you stay active and strong. ensure. take life in. no matter who you are, if you have type 2 diabetes, you know it can be a struggle
i think that s part of the point we try to do. they try to come to places like this and reach ordinary people who might not be socially or politically active to get them involved an hear their point of view. we don t know what they re going to do next but we know what they ve done so far. if it s an indication of what we see later tonight, i would expect them to go to many other spots beyond here to want. their tactic, i think, is to come and stay long enough to make their point and move on. darrell parks, you do a lot of medical malpractice cases. michael brown and others. in terms of the medical response here, this is clearly something that the garner family is very upset about. the care he got as he was laying on the ground. you have no doubt this will be part of the civil case, or lack of attention? obviously, the police called
south this week to start talking with leaders and when you have the level of engagement and probably most importantly, the message to law enforcement was that we have to do better. for so long it s been far acceptable to law enforcement that they can t overreach when it comes to minorities. now the message is that s not acceptable so there will definitely be change. mr. parks, i tweeted out today, i want someone from law enforcement to come forward and explain the videotape. i think the count rry isn t goi to feel any restitution whatsoever unless we are, as a country, talked to about what happened on that street, and i m mean a play-by-play of what these cops did and how they did it. what training has taken place in the career of these cops to have them come to this judgment and to this kind of force, and dr. peterson, if we don t have that conversation and we don t have that explanation, where does it
better way to go or the safer way to go. people need information and when you don t give people information is when they get nervous and that s what happens in these cases. mr. parks, is there a chance we may never know the full testimony and how everything unfolded in front of the grand jury? well, we may never know, but i ll say this, though. i think the change that we want to see in our country will happen as a result of the deaths we ve seen and as a result of the grand jury actions and prosecutorial actions that we ve seen in both of these cases. i think change is inevitable because the people are demanding it, and i think it was great what we heard the speaker of the house say and hinges we heard the president say and the attorney general say. these are all positive things that finally, they all agree something has to change here. chuck, what would remedy the tactic that was used on the street from what your professional experience and from viewing the videotape? well, th
