maria: i can tell you dark clothes, dark-color hair. the first police composite drawing of the killer came from the memory of maria hernandez. martin: it was the first sketch of this attacker that was made. as it turned out, the first of many. she described her assailant as a tall, skinny man. with a thin face and, most notably, dead eyes. dead eyes in my mind means that they are very fixed, not a lot of movement to them, have that perception that they re looking right through you. from a law enforcement standpoint, when you receive a description like that, your hopes is that it will lead to something productive, specifically the arrest of the shooter in this case. jordan: police began checking cars and questioning any lone males that were seen loitering in the area. but there was no new information.
troublesome. the reason why i say this is not a government solution is because once the government gets involved, it becomes freedom of speech. and the viewers should know this, it s not illegal to be radicalized in this country. people may be shocked by me saying that. you can be radicalized as much as you want to. it s when you mobilize down the path of violence and actually take action in the name of your radicalization, name of your cause, that s the problem. from a law enforcement standpoint, that period between radicalization and violence can be so brief that there s nothing we can do about it. it s a powerful assessment that you did pen. we re glad that you re able to join us as well to talk further. thank you. all right, coming up, a 25-year-old was found alive after missing for days at sea in a partially submerged boat. details about the u.s. coast guard s rescue efforts next. we y when they d arrive
