i do, just take me through the original incident and your reporting and understanding of what happened on january 7th, antonia. i think it is important that people know there is actually a lot about the beginning of the incident, or actually everything from the beginning to the end of the beating that we still don t actually know. but here s what we do know. on january 7th, officers pulled him over because of what they described as reckless driving. we don t know a lot about what that even just the term reckless driving means in this incident. we expect to know more when we can see the video ourseves tomorrow night. and that then at some point tyre nichols fled on foot. we understand that at some point he asked them verbally, you know, what did i do. and then we expect that there is going to be a period in the footage that we see tomorrow where perhaps there was a delay or conversations not had quickly enough about getting him aid
so much of his life ahead of him, how does something luke a driving infraction turn into three minutes of a beating. and we don t know. it is not sure that the video will leave us with any satisfying answers about this, but there is so much about it right now, nicolle, that we don t know. antonia, what are the questions that you have as we enter this really vital period? i think it is about 24 i m not great at math, 27 hours from now that that tape will come out. what are you what information are you wanting to gather, and what reporting are you undertaking to sort of be ready for the next 27 hours? the timeline is frankly what is keeping me up right now, that i keep trying to turn over in my head, you know, how does someone get pulled over for reckless driving, a driving infraction of some kind, still vague, and then it escalates to that point? why might tyre nichols have fled

execution in the words of the prosecutor. it is hard to see how any juror could find that reasonable. but we ll have to wait and see what the defense is. in terms of what we do have, i think antonia draws a perfect bright red line around all the gaps and our understanding of the facts here, but in terms of what we do know is there were five officers and there was one person who didn t even know what he had done or why he was pulled over. i mean, what how how broken is it that we re even having this conversation? it seems impossible to cover the beating death of one driver for a stop that is unclear based on the reporting was even a legal stop, but ended in his death. paul? so, when mr. nichols asked
