Axelrod good evening, i am jim axelrod. We begin with the verdict in the latest high profile case involving the use of deadly force by police on unarmed africanamerican suspects. In cleveland today, officer Michael Brelo was acquitted of manslaughter in the shooting death of two Timothy Russell and Malissa Williams two and a half years ago, this was a bench trial, meaning no jury this morning the judge rules ruled that when officer brelo fired 15 bullets into the car they were driving 15 directly at them from the hoo standing. Jury Jericka Duncan picks up the story. And the two, the judge odonnell it took him nearly an hour to explain a decision that he knew many people had been waiting for. And therefore finding bre flow using deadly force was a constitutionally reasonable response. It was a dramatic ending to a case that highlights the strained relationship in this country between African Americans and police. It was november 2012 when Timothy Russell and Malissa Williams led 62 Police Vehicles on a 22mile high speed chase. When it ended in an East ClevelandParking Lot Police fired at least 137 rounds at the car. Brelo climbed on top of the hood of the 1979 chevy malibu. Prosecutors say he continued shooting when the other officers had stopped. Michele russell is Timothy Russell easies. Now whatever reason they didnt pull over we dont know. But what i can say is that it does not they did not deserve to die for fleeing and eluding. Thats not a death sentence. Reporter tensions in cleveland between police and the community had gotten so bad that the Justice Department had to be called in. Late last year the doj found a large pattern of unreasonable and excessive use of force with over 600 cases from 2010 to 2013. Demonstrators had remained peaceful for the most part and city officials hoped to keep it that way. Court Officials Say part of the reason they announced the verdict on a Holiday Weekend was to minimize the potential for violent protests. Axelrod jericka, thank you. Safos is with our cleveland station woai you have been in the protesters when the verdict was read this morning. What have you seen so far and what is the city expecting tonight . Well, jim, from the moment that verdict was read obviously, many protesters expressing their displeasure at the judges decision. They took to is streets out in front of the Justice Center and began chanting, protesting but it was when one protester spotted the defense attorney Cathy Dangelo trying to make his way out of the use center they, a mob almost chased him back outside and met by Sheriff Deputies in full riot gear windshield whose kept the crowd at bay and pushed them back out on to the streets where they continued to block traffic and what we are expecting so far well, the city says it could be anything and they are ready for just about anything as well. Axelrod jim bill safos in cleveland, thank you. Just minutes after the verdict, the u. S. Department of justice announced it will be reviewing the brelo case. Paula reid covers the Justice Department for cbs news, so what does this mean . Reporter jim the department of justice will review the evidence in this case to determine whether officer brelo may have violated federal civil rights law. This is a very High Standard which we have seen in cases in ferguson and also elsewhere that and the fact and the department of justice is already working with the Cleveland Police department to implement reforms makes it very unlikely they are going to open a new case against this officer. Axelrod in his opinion the judge did seem to say officer brelo indeed fired a fatal shot, how does that square with the not guilty verdict . Reporter the judge did say that officer yes low brelo filed a fatal shot but so did other a officers and he could not find beyond a reasonable doubt that officer brelo fired the fatal shot. He also found that the officer was justified in fearing for his life. Axelrod paula reid in washington. Thank you. Consider the speed and distance that gay rights has traveled in the mostly catholic republic of ireland, just 23 years ago homosexuality was illegal there, but as Charlie Dagata reports today, ireland became the first country in the world to pass a constitutional referendum allowing same sex marriage. This is the moment same sex supporters in ireland knew they made history. The people have spoken, you know ireland has moved on and reporter in the end it was a landslide. Irish voters said a resounding yes to gay marriage by a margin of two to one. Irish senator and gay activist david norris says the country had sent a message to the world. There are countries throughout africa, asia russia, in which it is terribly dangerous still to be gay so we are saying to them, be civilized. Follow the irish. Reporter not long ago it would have been unthinkable. As late as 1993, homosexuality was illegal in the staunchly conservative catholic country. But when Civil Partnerships were legalized five years ago ireland turned a corps toward a more secular society. The irish abroad returned to the emerald aisle isle bringing their boat with them. And hashtag home to vote. Sharing images like passports on the plane, all the way from bangkok, their journey back home. Even nonirish supporters came to see whether the vote would be a victory for gay rights the world over, like jay lassiter from new jersey. Either way winse lo or draw we have made history and i just hope that the history is sweet. And i cant wait to maria hot irish boy. Reporter well, now he can. Legally. And there will be plenty of like minded people celebrating that victory tonight. Into. Why ireland put it to a public vote is as much a legal matter as much a democratic one, the constitution can only be amended bay National Referendum and the critical difference between a Civil Partnership and samesex marriage is the marriage is protected under the constitution Civil Partnership is not. Axelrod Charlie Dagata with a history making day in ireland. Charlie, thank you. Axelrod hundreds of thousands of catholics turned out in el salvador today for a beatification, the ceremonial first step of often Bishop Oscar Romero path to sainthood. As allen pizzey reports this is something that would have been considered unlikely when romero was gunned down celebrating mass 35 years ago. Reporter beatification had as much air of a festival as it did a religious occasion, even many who opposed him review oscar romero as a historic figure. The bloodstained 30 he was wearing when he was assassinated by a sniper who has never been caught was a Central Point in the service. Romero preached relentlessly against poverty and social injustice. The day before he was killed, the archbishop told the u. S. Backed military i beg you, i beseech you i order you in the name of god stop the repression. On the path to sainthood was long resisted by conservative catholics and El Salvadoran right wingers. Pope francis kick started the stalled process in february when he formally declared the murdered the archbishop a a martyr, in a Statement Issued today he called the beatification a cause for great joy for salvadorans and those of us who rejoice at the example of the greatest children of the church. The assassination plunged the country deeper into a civil war that lasted 12 years and claimed 85,000 dead and 8,000 missing. Many in the 300,000 strong crowd had vivid memories of it. The Archbishop Romero represent as lot she said and a recognition such as this is wonderful. Colonel angelo mato who led the mass called romero the light of the world and salt of the earth. Sainthood will certainly come faster than the first did. Axelrod just after midnight the senate reject add house bill that would have extended the patriot act, the counterterrorism law passed after 9 11. A major Sticking Point is the National Security agencys bulk collection of phone records, as Julianna Goldman reports parts of the act are set to expire june 1st. Without objection. The chaotic night ended with senators leaving for recess but unless they can come up with a compromise in the coming days the government could lose access to what the Administration Says is a key counterterrorism tool. We will be back down sunday, may 31st, 1 more opportunity to act responsibly and not allow this program to expire. Reporter the usa freedom act that passed in the house last week had overwhelming bipartisan support and would have changed the patriot act to reign in some of the controversial surveillance programs, including the nsas bulk collection of phone records revealed by edward snowden. The changes would stop the government from collecting the metadata instead, the administration would have to request it on a casebycase basis from the phone companies. Senator republicans, including Majority Leader Mitch Mcconnell objected to the house bill calling it untested and potentially harmful to National Security. As a compromise, republicans proposed a shortterm extension of the current law but that was blocked by a member of their own party. I object. Kentucky senator and president ial candidate rand paul has made his objection to nsa spying programs a pillar of his campaign. Our forefathers would be agas. Reporter he opposed blanket collection of american phone records but the white house supports the house bill, on friday, press secretary josh ernest said its passage is the best way to balance Civil Liberties and National Security. I havent heard a rational satisfactory explanation for why the vast majority of the United States senate, democrats and republicans, wont do that. Reporter there are limited options. Mcconnell could try to buy some time with another the shortterm extension but that has to get through the house. The president could ask for a new order authorizing the Metadata Program but, jim the white house has said he wont do that. Axelrod Julianna Goldman in our washington newsroom. Thank you.
