make sure officers are safe. we were fielding hundreds of calls at our comp center. the tints line we heard how many calls came in there. as you can imagine it was an astronomical amount of resources being used across our community. not everyone is unmarked police cars. not everyone is in full uniform. there was a lot of resources from across new england here, including helicopters moments after arrived on the scene. we used every resource that was available. i think it was this gentleman down here asked me, how long you re gonna search for? do you expect to find him? every officer there was not going home until we found this individual. you are saying the business was twice cleared? once on thursday twice thursday, twice friday? when was a business cleared? main recycling was cleared thursday, on thursday. we, my officers, i think we had three hour sleep over the course of the c days but it was in the middle of the night. 2:30 3:00 in the morning my officer found. we act
Back i could only respond through that email. But what i meant to say is we couldnt find out who was sending it. It was obvious that they were english speaking, however, because, you know, of the commander language. Was there specifics about a ransom number or conditions . When they initially reached out to us, yes. It was ridiculous. Like they wanted 100 million euro or all muslim prisoners kind of thing. And you know, fbi, you know, of course we right away sent tight the fbi and they just said keep them talking, keep them talking. But within a few emails when they realized they were just talking to the family, they had absolutely no interest. And so they cut off discussions until the only other time, sir, was when the french came out in march of 2014, they came out with another very specific offer to negotiate for all americans and all of the british. And your primary source of contact in the United States was the fbi . We had no primary source. I did have one we had one fbi agent wh
To put forward, so, i commend the u. S. Senate proappropriatio committee providing some assistance in that regard. I want to just invite david to ask, to address whether the, whether we can wait another 30 or 40 or 50 years to take action and expect not to have consequences. Thank you for the question. Not acting increases the cost of action. The longer we delay in action will increase the cost of action. Because we will have infrastructure lock in and other dynamics that will make it increasingly difficult to in fact shift to low carbon xwhis. We have the opportunity and i think we in fact are on the trajectory as lisa and others have said, we are on the trajectory of moving very rapidly toward that low carbon economy. The price of solar panels for example has fallen 75 in the last five years. And we can create hundreds of thousands of jobs in doing so . And we are in fact creating, there are 100,000 jobs in texas alone. Thank you. I want to welcome sam adams, who works with the World
The Justice Department statistics show that nationally only 16 of state prisoners are in for drug crimes and less than 4 are there for drug possession. And yet, our very president is going around stating an untruth. That is because this is an administration i think that is ruled by an ideology that claims that Law Enforcement is somehow racist. And that, as you say, is a disservice to officers of all colors who are there to help the good people in the community. Mr. Mccarthy, you rightly observed that the title this hearing, the war on police, is directed more broadly than just the department of justice. But it is rather what i see as a pervasive, to use a term of art, pattern and practice across the federal government and this administration, and indeed, i think no one bears more direct responsibility than the president. As ms. Macdonald just noted, president obama has directly tried to attack his own fbi director for observing that Violent Crime and homicides are increasing. We saw a
Its called the crossroads of new york state, and this weekend our cspan cities tour will explore the history and literary life of syracuse, new york. On book tv, well visit the special Collections Library at Syracuse University and learn about the Antislavery Movement in the area through the papers of abolitionist garrett smith. A local author discusses her book, prelude to prison. Then well talk with jeff hems lee about his book going viral. Reality is a process of social sharing. Its the process by what that happens. Viralty is what happens when people share content usually into their own networks. Oftentimes somebody who has a lot of following, a lot of followers or a lot of people paying attention to them, also spreads the content. On American History tv, well visit the Erie Canal Museum to learn how the canal influenced the growth of syracuse, the state, and the nation. Then it is on to Harriet Tubmans home. Our trip to syracuse takes us to the Matilda Jocelyn gage home. Her speec
