still pending against tensing. let me ask you this, officer tensing was fired after he was indicted on murder charges wednesday. but today the union representing the university of cincinnati police, they filed a grievance on his behalf demanding he get his job back. they say, quote, officer tensing was terminated without just cause for an on-duty fatal shooting while officer tensing was indicted on a charge of murder, the indictment is not a conviction, end of quote. and they re asking for all back pay and benefits including sick time, vacation time, holidays, pension, contributions. do they have a case, paul? no, this is ridiculous. it s just ridiculous. they can actually file whatever they want to. that s the way our legal system works. but for an employment contract like this, there are generally two tracks. you re either at-will and you can be released at any time

i mean this is in the vernacular, a pretty chicken crap stop. all right? the officer s attorney said his client reacted to save his life. his defense is going to be self-defense, that he felt like his life was endangered and threatened and he was trying to save his own life. this happened all in just an absolute split second. i mean there wasn t time to sit back and think about what you re doing. nbc s sarah dalloff is in cincinnati with the latest. sarah, there was a second police officer also with a body camera and according to authorities, what does that show in what does it establish are? andrea the cincinnati inquirer has posted a video purported to be the second officer s body camera online. in it you see it a figure getting up from the ground in the first few seconds. you assume that figure is officer tensing. what do you not see, however, is the officer being dragged be i
