last week. i was so devastated to see the decision of the grand jury deciding after viewing that video saying that a trial will not happen so that the community, the family, will have a day in court to understand why eric garner was killed. however, i wasn t surprised. as you said, as amadou diallo s mom, when my son was gunned down in february, 1999, we plain clothed police officers, guns drawn in the middle of the night driving unmarked cars and the trial was moved to albany, change of venue. my son was blamed for his own death. after that, we did everything we can not justice for amadou but to prevent this from happening again. and years and years later what is going on is so sad.
melinda had been head of her own public relations business, a firm she sold in 1989, but she still continued her career. i sit as a board member of a bank and still represent a number of clients that are, i guess, holdover from my company in new york. ron worked in investment banking and was head of corporate finance at his firm. in 1996, melinda gave birth to their son, reece. ron loved being a father and a weekend baseball coach. then in february 1999, 3-year-old reese developed what seemed like a flu. he started having some respiratory problems.
capital entity in any way. and he continues to deny he had any role in bain after he left to run the salt lake city, olympics. i had no association with the banishment of bain capital after february of 1999. that s when i left the firm. i m very pleased with the experience i had with the firm. as everyone knows, i went off to run the olympics. after that i came back and ran in massachusetts for governor. i had no role with bain capital after february 1999. joining me is jack gillum. he broke the story today. and eric mcpike, political reporter for real clear politics. often frequent helper of mine on the show. jack, let me ask you.
weather? if your nation was just a few feet above sea level, you would be really worried. we ll talk with a former president of just such a nation. and why am i wiggling my finger in a mirror here? to try to understand the wonders of the human brain. come along for an amazing tour. first, here s my take. the attacks and counterattacks in this presidential campaign are, i suppose, inevitable. but let s be honest. they re largely untrue or irrelevant. whatever the paperwork shows, mitt romney was not running bain capital after february, 1999. and even if he had been, outsourcing jobs to lower companies costs and thus ensure its survival is not sleazy, it s how you run a business efficiently. is president obama suggesting that we put up tariff barriers to prevent outsourcing in the future? on the other side, romney s recent claim accusing the president of shoveling government grants to his political supporters is so twisted that it earned him the washington post fact-chec
times reads no evidence has yet emerged that mr. romney exercised his powers at bain after february 1999 or directed the funds investments after he left. so, the reality is, he wasn t there. he had no practical involvement in the firm during those couple years. and the obama campaign is trying to make something out of nothing. well no, i think we should have a discussion about what s going on in the economy than this side show. what this plays into, the fact that you kind of don t know who mitt romney is and this is helping people feel like oh, maybe that s what he s like. why won t he release his tax returns, why won t he tell us what went down at bain. retroactively retired. the narrative that is going to stick if he s not careful. let s be very specific about the attack that they are focusing on, that the president himself doubled down on that clip you played at the opening of the show. he is saying, the president and advisers are saying, mitt romney was working somewhere
