Now former Police Officer terry made his 1st Court Appearance and minneapolis is facing charges of 2nd degree murder bales been set up more than a 1000000. 00 and a name has been following the hearing. It was a quick preliminary hearing as they usually are chauvelin gave perfunctory answers when called on and the judge gave the prosecution everything they asked for the judge set bail at 1250000. 00 without any conditions but of chauvelin can come up with 1000000. 00 he could get out on bail as long as he abides by the following conditions he does not leave the state of minnesota without permission he surrenders his gun and permits he does not have any contact with George Floyds family and he does not attempt to work in Law Enforcement or any kind of security job shoguns charges were upgraded last week once these Minnesota Attorney general took over the case the 2nd degree murder charge in the state of minnesota means that the prosecution would have to prove that provan killed george floyd intentionally or that he killed floyd while committing another felony it is predicted that the prosecution will take that latter strategy the attorney general has already said that this will be a difficult case to get a conviction on he is asking for the publics patience but of course protesters have 0 patience as specially when lives are at stake and the u. S. House of representatives paid tribute to george floyd ahead of unveiling proposed Legislation Congress hopes it will change the way Police Departments operate the members not for 8 minutes and 46 seconds the same period of time floyd is penned to the ground by a Police Officer with the need to his neck the democrats are proposing legislation that if approved would make it easier to prosecute Police Misconduct and off resident donald trump a setback it calls to defund Police Departments following floyds death. Im very proud of them. There will be defining there will be dismantling of our police and theyre not going to be any disbanding of our police our police have been letting us live in peace so we want to make sure we dont have any bad actors in there sometimes you see some horrible things like we would destroy recently but 99 i say 99. 9 but lets go with 99 percent of them are great great people and theyve done jobs that are record setting records. Or else correspondent kimberly how could has more in the view of this white house they are essentially saying there to paul that the suggestion by some democrats that there be a defining of the police force they say this is the left going too far when in fact they say that no one in the white house agrees with this no one in america does either now obviously thats not true because there are many in the left in the United States who are calling for this it can take a number of forms it could mean that there is some money that is slashed from budgets put into social programs economic programs to help Companies Rather communities that have been affected disproportionately by crime and other issues that require the police to be called but in the midst of this we should be clear well the trumpet ministration says that it does not support it also that is true of some very prominent democrats particularly House Speaker nancy pelosi and also the man who is trying to win the white house come november against donald trump us the former Vice President joe biden in fact his campaign putting out a statement saying that they are not calling for a defunding of Police Forces in the United States instead he says there is an urgent need for reform either bates as a criminal defense attorney who took part in the freddie crane case when an unarmed black man died in Police Custody in maryland he says protesters were demanding major changes from Police Forces but the specific specifics vary from group to group. We definitely have a broken system but it says that you have older officers they have bad habits are teaching younger officers these bad habits and therefore thats how you have the systemic views the systemic behavior within these Police Departments thats been there for many years is being taught and handed down from one generation of boxes to another generation boxes thats why this video thats why this case is so important to actually finally being able to lets look at the root cause and lets now change the way in which policing is done in america but means a number of things to different people in minneapolis what theyre saying is that from our understanding we no longer want the police as they are structured right now theyre saying is that we can do it and Community Policing can do it a different way what it also means to other groups of individuals that want to police a car we want to have a psychologist to go out to a car and i wont walk off we want to have arm individuals to deescalate the situation number of Health Care Workers to go out there and headed as the Health Care Situation they still way have police but force is not what theyre there for theyre trying to say you know what lets change the way in which you look at policing lets send out a a socially active group of individuals that are there to help and give a number of Different Services to whatever individual is the need i think a lot of times police union sometime they want to focus and keep the status quo the status quo the way its been for instance one of the things thats very important theyve done in minneapolis is theyve gotten rid of the use of force i. E. Whether its a choke call whether its putting a knee in a back than the beatles back Police Unions oftentimes want to have those types that activities to say you know our officers need to have these tools to protect themselves thats what the unions are saying however the unions also have to understand that were no longer dealing with generations past and use now is the time to be held responsible and be held accountable the unions just dont want to give up the power a lot of times and that use and use the things that there are officers and their senior in body have traditionally used to police the communities they feel thats the only way the police and its not. Claymore had in the news hour including new york City Employees turn on their boss demanding the mayor take action over Police Violence to fight the risk of losing their livelihoods. He leave the kenyans take on their police force accused of killing people during lockdown. And in sports banish champions are so i never see the huge boost ahead of their league overturn. Our koreas threatening to cut off a hotline with south Korea State News Agency says itll be the 1st step toward completely shutting down all contact between the 2 sides south Koreas Unification Ministry is urging the north to keep the lines of communication open its a latest in a series of threats in recent days jiang is demanding seoul stop defectors from sending propaganda leaflets and to north korea lets bring in robert was on south korea as a professor of his on National University and specializes in the korean conflict thank you so much for your time as always mr kelly so 1st ill just tell our viewers what this hotline is is it what it sounds like yes it is its the 2 koreas way of communicating with each other which has been around for a while now to ensure that incidents of the d. M. Z. Dont seem to spin out of control and that you dont have incidents propagations along the d. M. Z. Have been a problem for decades and as a part of the into a korean detente of the last couple years the hotline was set up its supposed to have 2 calls a day and then the North Koreans didnt pick up yesterday and some they would stop picking up in the future and so thats what they turned down discussion comes from ok so tell us what is the earlier so upset about tell us about these leaflets. Right so this is tricky for the south korean government because south korea is a democratic republic right south korea has sort of a right wing thats very anti communist as might imagine right older koreans right the 2 koreas are sort of engaged in this kind of existential indeterminacy sort of contest you have sort of a hard right in south korea thats very into communist thats also very evangelical and christian and for these people north korea has a real opponent its sort of the you know this atheist leninist aggressor and things like that and you know regardless of which you think about those opinions thats probably 20 percent of south korean opinion v. Z. North korea and these people routinely use the proximity of north korea to release balloons and other things. Into the sky filled with a flash keys and imagery from south korea and magazines and things like this and pamphlets saying that north korea really is this horribly governed place and kim jong un is sort of this pampered despot Everything Else the North Koreans have complained about this behavior for decades and the current south korean government really wants a rapprochement detente with north korea and so they have sort of moved against these groups but that raises all kinds of freedom of speech issues here in the south its very tricky so why is it escalating now why now i mean theyve been doing this why it why is the north particularly mad now. Yeah thats actually a good question my sense is that its because of the vulnerability i dont know vulnerabilities right where but sort of the ideological susceptibility of the current korean government which is on the left for sort of a dovish approach towards north korea that is to say that the south korean left doesnt really want this kind of confrontation and the blue launches and stuff like that right and these things sort of come in waves and the south korean and the north korean government often uses the south korean less interest in negotiations on north korea as a lever to get south of the south korean government to move against domestic opponents that is to say that in order for them the south korean government to get the North Koreans to sit down at the table the North Koreans say we have to move against these groups and stop them from rasmussen Everything Else right and so this point like i said this puts the south korean less in an awkward position because if it doesnt move against these groups the north korean shutdown detente if it does then the south korean government winds have been court and you have big fights about freedom of speech and freedom of assembly and stuff like that and so theres just no really Good Alternative here right the government is really sort of trapped in the North Koreans use this to serve which concessions on suffering government and ok robert kelly thank you very much for your insight we appreciate it thank you for having.
