appears to corroborate officer tensing s claim that he was being dragged by dubose s car when he fired the fatal shot. however, in sworn statements, official interviews and believes they are being truthful in this case. he says the grand jury has made the right call. now, thee officers have been placed on paid administrative leave while an internal investigation is conducted by their department. that is separate from the county case down here. there s no word on when that investigation will wrap up. meanwhile, tensing like you mentioned out on bond. his father posted it for him last night. he s due back in court here on august 19th. and if convicted faces 15 years to life in prison. back to you, guys. sarah, thank you for that update. there were also dramatic moments when accused charleston police shooter dylan jn roof appeared in court today. he wanted to plead guilty but
these are the two officers whose videos were released yesterday. in officer kidd s video, you can hear him say he saw officer tensing being dragged by same dubose s car. that is a claim that the plaintiff s attorney dismissed. it came aftertensing s arraignment, an emotional court hearing for the family of sam dubose. he loved all his kids and they loved him. he loved him so much. they are all so broken right now. they are so broken right now. i would like for people to know that that man shot and killed a man who loved his family. and his kids and his mother and he was loved. dubose s family had expressed they didn t think the $1 million bond had been set high enough. since tensing has made bond there has been no sign of him.
i thought i was going to get ran over. he was dragging me. are you good? i m good. i got my hand and arm caught. i saw that. let me bring in the director of black law infoersment alliance and a retired new york city police detective. good to see you. thanks jose. let plea get your reaction to what we just heard from officer tensing. he says he was dragged and feared he was kneg going to be run over and another officer said, yeah i saw that. what we heard, basically, was the beginning of a conspiracy. and it s not uncommon for law enforcement professionals or any professionals, really to kind of circle the wagons in times of extreme stress to get their stories straight. not necessarily true but they want to be able to verify that hey, listen you re with me and i m with you, and this is our story moving forward. the problem with that and what should be the problem with that is everyone should be equally prosecuted and held liable for those, not only the actions but the comm
