And the others
are carotid,
174
00:09:33,710 --> 00:09:36,250
where they do it
some kind of "V"
175
00:09:36,250 --> 00:09:38,460
and then enter
behind the head.
176
00:09:38,460 --> 00:09:40,500
And it cuts
blood to the carotid,
177
00:09:40,500 --> 00:09:42,880
and that's a lot
less dangerous.
178
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:44,500
ROBERT SIMPACH: I think
it's March & apos; 82.
179
00:09:44,500 --> 00:09:49,420
I'm chase
a James Mincey Jr.
180
00:09:49,420 --> 00:09:50,710
The way I hear that story,
181
00:09:50,710 --> 00:09:52,620
he drove to
his mother's house,
182
00:09:52,620 --> 00:09:54,920
a set of police
pulled it...
183
00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:57,250
He, uh...
He already stop by
two other officers
184
00:09:57,250 --> 00:09:58,580
for a broken windshield.
185
00:09:58,580 --> 00:10:00,380
BANK MARJEAN:
They gave him a ticket.
186
00:10:00,380 --> 00:10:03,040
And he continued ,
go to his mother's house.
187
00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:04,750
Five minutes later,
he is driving somewhere...
188
00:10:04,750 --> 00:10:07,460
There is another set
police in there.
189
00:10:07,460 --> 00:10:09,580
So, they put
sirens at him.
190
00:10:09,580 --> 00:10:12,250
SIMPACH: So he's thinking
we are the same police officer
has stopped him before
191
00:10:12,250 --> 00:10:13,830
BANK: He thought they
harassed him, in the end.
192
00:10:13,830 --> 00:10:14,920
SIMPACH: Not
fast chase.
193
00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:16,500
It's 45, 50
miles per hour.
194
00:10:16,500 --> 00:10:18,420
BANK: Dia mencoba melanjutkan
ke rumah ibunya.
195
00:10:18,420 --> 00:10:20,880
They always tell us
if you don't feel safe,
196
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:22,540
go where
you feel safe.
197
00:10:22,540 --> 00:10:23,670
SIMPACH: Because
from chasing,
198
00:10:23,670 --> 00:10:25,120
now we have to
handcuffs him.
199
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:26,710
I ran out of car when he
stopped on the entrance
200
00:10:26,710 --> 00:10:29,750
and me.... I dropped
my stick to catch it.
201
00:10:29,750 --> 00:10:32,420
And he came towards me
and I sprayed it with tear gas.
202
00:10:32,420 --> 00:10:34,920
And he put it
hands to his face
203
00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:36,420
and said, "Ow, my eyes."
204
00:10:36,420 --> 00:10:38,500
And I got along with
my partner to arrest him.
205
00:10:38,500 --> 00:10:42,040
He tried to struggling
get bludgeon from his face.
206
00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:43,790
I mean, he is very slippery
and he just moves away from us
207
00:10:43,790 --> 00:10:45,540
and he runs towards the house.
208
00:10:45,540 --> 00:10:48,580
And I think
Mrs. Fowler, her mother,
209
00:10:48,580 --> 00:10:50,420
took a photo.
210
00:10:50,420 --> 00:10:53,540
BANK: And he
tried to say it to them
he wanted to help his son.
211
00:10:53,540 --> 00:10:55,290
SIMPACH: And I rushed
to him to catch him
212
00:10:55,290 --> 00:10:58,000
and he pushed me
went very hard,
dropped me.
213
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:01,540
And all this... These people
are under the influence of
medicine- drugs and items,
214
00:11:01,540 --> 00:11:02,880
I've heard about that.
215
00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:04,830
About PCP
and how strong they are
.
216
00:11:04,830 --> 00:11:08,330
And now I'm thinking
this is my first time
meeting one.
217
00:11:08,330 --> 00:11:12,710
And we wrestle there,
standing in the rose garden.
218
00:11:12,710 --> 00:11:14,380
And I try to make it
to put his hand
219
00:11:14,380 --> 00:11:15,540
behind his back
so we can handcuff him.
220
00:11:15,540 --> 00:11:17,460
He won't let us do that.
221
00:11:17,460 --> 00:11:19,920
Finally, the backup officer
arrives, who told him,
222
00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:21,250
"Now, this is what
we will do.
223
00:11:21,250 --> 00:11:23,210
" We have to shackle you
behind you. "
224
00:11:23,210 --> 00:11:24,750
They handcuffed his hands
behind his back.
225
00:11:24,750 --> 00:11:26,420
Well, try it,
but he won't let them.
226
00:11:26,420 --> 00:11:29,920
He throws both of them
the officer from it
lifts him up.
227
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:32,250
BANK: Because he
tried to get the items
out of his face.
228
00:11:32,250 --> 00:11:36,960
So, Officer Cannon got
a carotid choke on him.
229
00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:41,920
Lieutenant Rubio
is in his hands
and knees on the road
230
00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:45,880
see Mr. Mincey,
who... who has
carotid to him.
231
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:47,420
He said,
"No. Don't give up,
232
00:11:47,420 --> 00:11:49,500
"He's not out yet,
he's not out yet."
233
00:11:51,500 --> 00:11:55,170
Even after they strangled him,
they still handcuffed him,
234
00:11:55,170 --> 00:11:58,290
and handcuffs his legs
and throws it in the car.
235
00:12:02,500 --> 00:12:05,000
Like he's not human, so...
236
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:09,120
SIMPACH: And as soon as we
get The handcuffs,
237
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:12,880
I went to the hospital.
I counted the time,
in under 60 seconds.
238
00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:14,540
He was taken there
239
00:12:14,540 --> 00:12:18,460
and at some point
after that, they said
he lost consciousness.
240
00:12:21,290 --> 00:12:24,080
BANK: They will go
keep him on the machine
for two weeks
241
00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:25,830
so we can
Say goodbye to us.
242
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,080
But he's pretty much
gone.
243
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:34,750
After a while, I started
accept that he didn't
be back.
244
00:12:36,290 --> 00:12:39,250
So I just asked God
to bless his soul
245
00:12:39,250 --> 00:12:41,420
and take care of him.
246
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:47,170
SIMPACH: We don't know why
James Mincey Jr. died
247
00:12:47,170 --> 00:12:51,420
from the basin when we got
suffocated in the academy.
248
00:12:51,420 --> 00:12:53,420
Every week, half of the class
chokes.
249
00:12:53,420 --> 00:12:57,920
Everyone knows how painful
it falters out.
250
00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:03,380
We don't realize what
can do to someone
under the influence of drugs.
251
00:13:03,380 --> 00:13:05,670
And we also don't know
/> how to transport people.
252
00:13:05,670 --> 00:13:08,830
So we experience death
from the grip of the choke,
253
00:13:08,830 --> 00:13:11,290
bar-arm continues choke.
254
00:13:11,290 --> 00:13:17,290
And we also experience some
death from transporting people,
from asphyxia.
255
00:13:17,290 --> 00:13:21,120
SIMPACH: When we heard that
his girlfriend was pregnant,
256
00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:22,500
should be with her baby,
257
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:28,420
uh, I don't know if it doesn't
add one error.
258
00:13:28,420 --> 00:13:30,880
I don't know it exists
of course feeling guilty,
259
00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:33,000
that only....
For me, that
too bad it happened.

I think,
"This is definitely he. "

I just don't want to...
My mind won't give up.

it happened so fast.

So that's really
golden time for LA

00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,540
But , You know, I remember
thinking to myself,
404

"There are lots of
LA sections
405
00:21:04,420 --> 00:21:06,920

service they get is

starts to connect

416
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:33,120
that's when everything really happens
starts to change.
417
00:21:33,120 --> 00:21:35,040
Because there was
a lot of money to make.
418

in the smallest form,
like $ 5.

When you start do that,
423
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:49,500
now you have given

start out

00:25:08,120 --> 00:25:09,580
He is my heart
and soul there.
506
00:25:09,580 --> 00:25:11,000
That's like
you went, uh...
507
00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:12,380
Lost your mother
or your parents.
508
00:25:12,380 --> 00:25:13,960
He... your brother.
509
00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:15,620
(stuttering)
She's part of my heart.
510
00:25:16,830 --> 00:25:20,210
To this day, I still
think about him.
511
00:25:20,210 --> 00:25:24,540
My mother is hurt by it
because he knows it's me and
Little Blue is very close.
512
00:25:24,540 --> 00:25:26,710
I say, if you see it,
you see another.
513
00:25:26,710 --> 00:25:28,620
I said,
that's how close we are.
514
00:25:28,620 --> 00:25:31,500
And he said, "Do you know what?
It's time for you
to go out of town.
515
00:25:31,500 --> 00:25:32,960
" Stay with you
Grandma for a while. "
516
00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:35,040
I stayed for one year
then returned.
517
00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:36,830
Then I told my mother,
518
00:25:36,830 --> 00:25:40,830
" This is not for me.
I'm not a coward so it's time
for me to go home. "
519
00:25:41,500 --> 00:25:43,330
So I went home.
520
00:25:43,330 --> 00:25:46,040
So I believe in God.
Believe me, I believe in God.
521
00:25:46,670 --> 00:25:48,000
And his angels.

Well, handwriting
on the wall, Alice
526

against you,
527
00:26:11,790 --> 00:26:13,540
and all hope is lost...

529

What?
530
00:26:16,580 --> 00:26:19,210
Really go in there
and fight.

KEVIN TOSHIMA: You know,
is in the suburbs,
532
00:26:20,620 --> 00:26:23,330
it's a bit like
The Brady Bunch.
533
00:26:23,330 --> 00:26:25,420
If you remember
the show was from the 70s.
534
00:26:25,420 --> 00:26:28,000
And in fact, it's that kind of
our favorite show to watch.
535
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:30,580
I grew up in a city
called the Alhambra.
536
00:26:30,580 --> 00:26:35,120
Good environment,
the family just came out
during the summer
537
00:26:35,120 --> 00:26:37,460
and the children
played on the road.
538
00:26:37,460 --> 00:26:40,330
That
539
00:26:40,330 --> 00:26:42,000
I won't exchange it
for the world.
540
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:44,830
That's just a
an amazing experience.
541
00:26:44,830 --> 00:26:48,460
My sister, Karen,
two years older
than me.
542
00:26:48,460 --> 00:26:52,000
And he always did it
what he was told.
543
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:53,750
He plays a piano that is growing up.
544
00:26:53,750 --> 00:26:56,000
He listens
my mom and dad,
545
00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:57,580
and he always has
A straight.
546
00:26:57,580 --> 00:26:59,420
And he is ideal
547
00:26:59,420 --> 00:27:02,540
as a girl
and an older sister.
548
00:27:03,500 --> 00:27:05,580
Go to the late 80s,
549
00:27:05,580 --> 00:27:09,040
one- the only exposure that I have
to the inner city
550
00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:11,710
is a basketball game,
believe it or not.
551
00:27:13,540 --> 00:27:16,540
We used to go to the Los Angeles Laker Game.
552
00:27:16,540 --> 00:27:20,120
And at that time, they
played at The Forum
in Inglewood.
553
00:27:20,120 --> 00:27:25,120
So, my father will do it
take us and we will do it
cross the Slaus
554
00:27:25,120 --> 00:27:29,170
and that alone
take us through
South Center.
555
00:27:29,170 --> 00:27:30,960
And I remember,
556
00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:33,460
as a child, just seeing
around and just thinking,
557
00:27:33,460 --> 00:27:35,790
"Wow, this really is
different from Alhambra. "
558
00:27:37,330 --> 00:27:40,330
Karen, you know,
he of course comes along.
559
00:27:40,330 --> 00:27:43,250
But he's not too much
in sports so much.
560
00:27:43,250 --> 00:27:48,500
He's more, you know,
being music and art
561
00:27:48,500 --> 00:27:52,000
and drawing and piano
and things like that.
562
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:56,080
His dream is to go inside
graphic arts and advertising
563
00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:58,620
and he is able to design
his own business card,
564
00:27:58,620 --> 00:28:02,710
um, which is a big thing,
and he drew a big
illustration
565
00:28:02,710 --> 00:28:06,290
and blew it up and hung it
in the hallway of our house.
566
00:28:06,290 --> 00:28:08,080
Karen finished
Long Beach State
567
00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:11,380
and continued
an advertising company
568
00:28:11,380 --> 00:28:12,420
in Studio City.
569
00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:17,080
He went to Westwood < br /> to celebrate the promotion
570
00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:19,290
he received
at the advertising firm.
571
00:28:19,290 --> 00:28:24,040
At that time,
Westwood is the place
to go at the end week,
572
00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:26,330
on Friday night
or Saturday night.
573
00:28:26,330 --> 00:28:29,960
On weekends, you can't
even walk through Westwood.
574
00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:31,750
You can barely walk
through the sidewalk,
575
00:28:31,750 --> 00:28:33,750
many times you
actually have to go on
the sidewalk or on the road
576
00:28:33,750 --> 00:28:36,290
just to finish it
from place to place,
577
00:28:36,290 --> 00:28:38,540
from the restaurant
to the restaurant.
578
00:28:38,540 --> 00:28:42,330
But Westwood starts
attracts gang members too.
579
00:28:53,420 --> 00:28:56,460
I remember going home.
It's too late .
580
00:28:56,460 --> 00:28:58,460
I think it's possible
at 2:00 a.m.
581
00:28:58,460 --> 00:29:00,040
or at 2:30 in the morning,
582
00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:03,380
and suddenly
I heard the phone ringing
in the kitchen.
583
00:29:03,380 --> 00:29:06,960
And I took it
and that was my father.
584
00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:09,710
I just thought, "Oh, this
weird , what are you...
585
00:29:09,710 --> 00:29:11,290
"You know, I think
all of you are at home

00:29:11,290 --> 00:29:13,040
" already sleeping. "
But...
587
00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:17,330
He said, "Well, there are
accidents and...
588
00:29:17,330 --> 00:29:20,460
" This is Karen, and you need
to come to the hospital.
589
00:29:20,460 --> 00:29:21,420
"We're in Westwood."
590
00:29:22,330 --> 00:29:24,250
I see,
591
00:29:24,250 --> 00:29:27,960
I just asked him,
"Well, is he okay?"
592
00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:30,460
And he said,
593
00:29:31,380 --> 00:29:33,420
"It doesn't look good."

596

It turns out that
two gangs competing there .
597
00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:43,460
And he walked
the way
598
00:29:43,460 --> 00:29:45,380
and one of the gang members
599
00:29:45,380 --> 00:29:47,580
took out the gun
and just started shooting.
600
00:29:47,580 --> 00:29:49,330

601
00:29:49,330 --> 00:29:53,210

He has been shot.

that you always

see on the news and...
605
00:29:59,500 --> 00:30:01,960
And you've just
seen it on the news,
606
00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:03,380
like, "Oh,
someone got shot."
607

Or "Someone was killed."

my mom just cried

and my father just tried
to stay together.
613
00:30:22,250 --> 00:30:25,000

came and said,

REPORTER: Is that serious?
645
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:47,250
NEWS READERS:
When Karen Toshima was killed
in a cross-fire gang,
646
00:31:47,250 --> 00:31:48,920
quick police response
647
00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:51,420
and plans were made
doing triple patrols for the area
648
00:31:51,420 --> 00:31:53,170
in big power performances.
649
00:31:53,170 --> 00:31:55,080

We have a few foot beats
and of course
650
00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:56,290
our officers will do
651
00:31:56,290 --> 00:31:58,330
That same basic job
they've done everything.
652
00:31:58,330 --> 00:32:00,290
But there will be more
than them?
There will be more of them.

00:32:00,290 --> 00:32:02,710
MOULIN: Those resources
were directed to that area
654
00:32:02,710 --> 00:32:06,170
because the
community was stunned

something like this could happen
happened in their community
656
00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:13,290
The media is really dramatized
the murder of the young woman
in Westwood
657
00:32:13,290 --> 00:32:14,830
and they should be.
658
00:32:14,830 --> 00:32:16,920
And then, on the side another,
when you commit this murder
659
00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:21,120
day after day in the Central South,
well, that is a way of life and
it's not newsworthy.
660
00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:23,210
I thought the previous week,
around that time,
661
00:32:23,210 --> 00:32:25,000
we had three or four
in one incident,
662
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:26,830
three or four children were shot
663
00:32:26,830 --> 00:32:29,000
in South Central LA
and it never made news.
664
00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:32,500
Many people from
Central South said,
665
00:32:32,500 --> 00:32:34,750
"This happens every day < br /> in our environment
666
00:32:34,750 --> 00:32:36,750
"and it seems like there are no people
to pay attention."
667
00:32:36,750 --> 00:32:40,080
I remember a lot of
talks and discussions about that.
668
00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:41,290
And rightfully so.
669
00:32:41,290 --> 00:32:46,170
I really can understand
and empathize with
670
00:32:46,170 --> 00:32:49,500
people who have
to deal with it every day
671
00:32:49,500 --> 00:32:51,210
and don't get much attention.

the streets of Los Angeles,
673
00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:56,120
to run thugs
from the streets

and return them to < br /> decent law-abiding people
from Los Angeles.
675
00:32:59,580 --> 00:33:01,420
READERS: Today
the city council gave the green light
676
00:33:01,420 --> 00:33:04,250
to employ 150 more people < br /> police officers.
677
00:33:04,250 --> 00:33:06,250
We are at war.
678
00:33:06,250 --> 00:33:08,880
We will succeed.
679
00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:11,170
Whatever is needed,
we will do it.
680
00:33:13,620 --> 00:33:17,380
ELFMONT: The thinking is,
"Okay, if we have
a very bad area,
681
00:33:17,380 --> 00:33:22,170
" What we need to do
is to saturate the area
for two or three days
682
00:33:22,170 --> 00:33:26,790
"and make as many as possible
arrests that we can,
for anything."
683
00:33:26,790 --> 00:33:29,210
You know, we have to < br /> look for possible causes
to stop them.
684
00:33:29,210 --> 00:33:30,960
It could be
traffic violations,
685
00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:33,000
jaywalking
or whatever it is.
686
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:35,880
And look for them,
run it to guarantee.
687
00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:39,170
And see if you can ride
with weapons or smuggled
or something.
688
00:33:39,170 --> 00:33:41,040
READERS: The police call it
"Hammer Operation"
689
00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:43,670
and the goal is to force
because of many gang members
690
00:33:43,670 --> 00:33:46,380
maybe from the streets
from Los Angeles .
691
00:33:46,380 --> 00:33:48,460
The police will plant
medicines for you,
692
00:33:48,460 --> 00:33:50,330
um, the police will set you up.
693
00:33:50,330 --> 00:33:51,750
They will use snitches.
694
00:33:51,750 --> 00:33:53,210
The police will, um...
695
00:33:53,210 --> 00:33:54,420
They will take your money.
696
00:33:54,420 --> 00:33:57,710
I mean, do you know what
I said?
And regularly.
697
00:33:57,710 --> 00:34:00,960
Operation Hammer is,
because there is no better word,
698
00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:02,000
this ticket is free
go there
699
00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:04,580
and be too aggressive
police work.
700
00:34:04,580 --> 00:34:06,830
So they will enter
and will say ,
"Drop the hammer at them."
701
00:34:06,830 --> 00:34:08,540
That's where...
That's where the term
comes in.
702
00:34:08,540 --> 00:34:11,040
LAPD will install it
one thousand officers
703
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:13,080
on Friday
and Saturday night
704
00:34:13,080 --> 00:34:14,830
becomes different
environment.
705
00:34:14,830 --> 00:34:19,670
And regulates the prison situation
for bulk orders.
706
00:34:19,670 --> 00:34:22,920
And the officers will come out
and only catch and catch
and catch.

(POLICE WAS NOT VERY GOOD
RADIO CHATTER)
709
00:34:32,290 --> 00:34:35,000
Tonight, we will come out
even with more power big.

MAN: Can you please, oh,
please send me an ambulance.
711
00:34:38,500 --> 00:34:40,830
At least we will have it
300 officers, maybe more.
712
00:34:40,830 --> 00:34:42,000
OFFICER: Step onto the wall,
step onto the wall.
713
00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:44,040
Kneel
when you get to the wall.
714
00:34:44,040 --> 00:34:45,290
Passenger, get out!
715
00:34:49,380 --> 00:34:52,460
What we did really
put the gang on notice.
716
00:34:52,460 --> 00:34:55,500
REPORTER: LAPD broke
through the back of what
the police called
717
00:34:55,500 --> 00:34:58,040
a "rock house."
718
00:34:58,040 --> 00:35:01,620
Oh my God, friend.
Why is my family and everything
being harassed,
719
00:35:01,620 --> 00:35:02,620
and now look at my car.
720
00:35:17,500 --> 00:35:20,960
MOULIN: Yes,
Operation Hammer, I'm sure to put
a lot of bad people in prison.
721
00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:24,330
But did they put it
bad people in prison
legally and legally?
722
00:35:25,540 --> 00:35:26,920
What is the level of belief?
723
00:35:28,290 --> 00:35:31,210
How many people have been killed
as a result?
724
00:35:31,210 --> 00:35:33,080
Or harmed?
Or hurt?
725
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:36,880
(Stuttering)
I don't know.
726
00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:39,750
They just came up with a weapon
and they said,
"Get down!"
727
00:35:39,750 --> 00:35:41,040
And they caught me
behind my head
728
00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:43,290
and he threw me on the floor
and then he kicked me.
729
00:35:43,290 --> 00:35:44,920
And he hit I
my back and he said,
730
00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:46,080
"Down, bitch."
731
00:35:46,080 --> 00:35:48,080
ELFMONT: There are
Hispanic families.
732
00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:51,040
They live in between two...
I think two or three units,
733
00:35:51,040 --> 00:35:52,960
like, duplex or plywood.
734
00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:54,380
They are victims
735
00:35:54,380 --> 00:35:56,830
of various types
intimidation
736
00:35:56,830 --> 00:35:59,000
by gang members,
The Rolling 30s.
737
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:01,960
And they tell them
that they can't have
lights at home.
738
00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:03,960
And they can't do it
all the lights outdoor.
739
00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:08,040
That's why they're going to do it
basically selling and slinging
all the drugs.
740
00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:12,250
So, I called Narcotics
Division and I ask them
741
00:36:12,250 --> 00:36:14,960
if they will start working
The Rolling 30s.
742
00:36:15,710 --> 00:36:19,080
And basically, get them.
743
00:36:20,620 --> 00:36:22,620
And of course, < br /> nothing happened.
744
00:36:22,620 --> 00:36:26,080
So, detectives
came to me and said,
745
00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:28,210
"Well, what if we
get a search warrant? "
746
00:36:28,210 --> 00:36:30,080
So I said," Okay.
747
00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:31,880
"You get
a search warrant."
748
00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:34,080
And then, I'm kind of...
I kind of forgot about that.
749
00:36:35,830 --> 00:36:39,170
WOMEN: Jesus , help me!
Have mercy, Lord!
750
00:36:39,170 --> 00:36:41,880
I have never seen anything
like this on all my days.
751
00:36:51,830 --> 00:36:53,620
MOULIN: Yes, they are enforced
search warrant, alright.
752
00:36:53,620 --> 00:36:55,420
But the officers went
to the house
753
00:36:55,420 --> 00:36:56,880
and literally destroyed it.
754
00:36:56,880 --> 00:36:58,790
REPORTER: We in Dalton.
755
00:36:58,790 --> 00:37:01,540
The dining area
has glass all over the floor.
756
00:37:01,540 --> 00:37:04,210
The wall in the hallway
is pulled out.
757
00:37:04,210 --> 00:37:05,670
This is outrageous.
758
00:37:05,670 --> 00:37:07,880
READERS: All of this
produced seven arrests.
759
00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:10,580
Three quarters of an ounce
cocaine of confiscated stones,
760
00:37:10,580 --> 00:37:12,580
along with six ounces of pot .
761
00:37:12,580 --> 00:37:14,420
Sawing rifles
are also found.
762
00:37:14,420 --> 00:37:17,670
They tore up my freezer,
they tore up my furnace.
763
00:37:17,670 --> 00:37:19,250
Tore my desk.
764
00:37:19,250 --> 00:37:21,880
Well, they even broke up
all the mirrors and things < br /> by the bed.
765
00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:25,290
This is America, we don't
do things like that.
766
00:37:25,290 --> 00:37:27,830
Not how we are,
as Los Angeles
police officers,
767
00:37:27,830 --> 00:37:28,960
initially trained.
768
00:37:28,960 --> 00:37:33,920
We want to see officers
train carefully
769
00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:36,710
when looking for evidence.
770
00:37:36,710 --> 00:37:38,880
Uh, sometimes
it's impossible.
771
00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:41,170
If they think so
hidden in a location
772
00:37:41,170 --> 00:37:42,750
that they don't easily get,
773
00:37:42,750 --> 00:37:46,580
sometimes they have to
delete something
or tear something.
774
00:37:46,580 --> 00:37:49,080
PAUL JEFFERSON:
Commander officer
at that time, Tom Elfmont...
775
00:37:49,080 --> 00:37:51,880
I know Tom.
We made sergeants
together at the same time.
776
00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:53,920
Even from the standpoint of
police work,
777
00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:55,920
if you are going to enter
and find a location,
778
00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:57,830
You definitely don't want
to throw everything
779
00:37:57,830 --> 00:37:59,330
in the middle of the floor
780
00:37:59,330 --> 00:38:01,750
or tear it apart, because
where is the proof?
781
00:38:01,750 --> 00:38:03,580
You know, did you
destroy the evidence?
782
00:38:03,580 --> 00:38:05,250
How will you find it?
How will you catalog it?
783
00:38:05,250 --> 00:38:06,750
That doesn't make sense.
784
00:38:06,750 --> 00:38:09,920
ELFMONT: They intentionally
interpret proactively me,
785
00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:13,000
my enthusiasm
towards gang members,
786
00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:16,120
said, "Oh, okay, Tom,
he wants us to get rid of him
787
00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:18,080
" from The Rolling 30s. "
788
00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:20,500
Well, yes, I want you
to get rid of The Rolling 30s,
789
00:38:20,500 --> 00:38:21,750
arrest their leader.
790
00:38:21,750 --> 00:38:25,250
But I don't want you to go
wake up and pause the toilet
791
00:38:25,250 --> 00:38:26,880
and destroy the wall.
792
00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:28,670
WOMEN: The cereal is already used up
above the
fridge for children,
793
00:38:28,670 --> 00:38:31,040
they pour it in the sink
so we can't use it anymore.

And that's the
drug he needs.
797
00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:37,540
What I tried
to achieve
798
00:38:37,540 --> 00:38:40,460
is a good thing.
799
00:38:40,460 --> 00:38:43,830
And try doing < br /> the right thing.
800
00:38:43,830 --> 00:38:47,670
But that's very wrong.
So I feel bad about that.
801
00:38:47,670 --> 00:38:49,750
REPORTER: Are they broken
this staircase too?
802
00:38:49,750 --> 00:38:52,750
The stairs behind you, so you can't
get out in a fire emergency?
WOMAN: No
803

doghouse to shreds.
804
00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:56,380
WOMEN: Oh, yes, that too.
805
00:38:56,380 --> 00:38:58,790
ELFMONT: And I came out high
on the Commander exam.
806
00:38:58,790 --> 00:39:01,330
So, many people thought
that I would be the head.
807
00:39:01,330 --> 00:39:02,330
Yes.
808
00:39:03,540 --> 00:39:05,880
But Dalton is fully
turn it off.
809
00:39:05,880 --> 00:39:09,580
My biggest regret is,
I'm not there.
810
00:39:09,580 --> 00:39:11,790
Because if I'm there ,
it won't happen.
811
00:39:11,790 --> 00:39:13,500
So, I mean, to this day,
812
00:39:13,500 --> 00:39:16,830
You know, that's... That
my biggest regret, surely .
813
00:39:18,790 --> 00:39:21,750
That's only one story
that adds the next one,
to...
814
00:39:21,750 --> 00:39:23,330
And that's a domino effect.
815
00:39:24,330 --> 00:39:25,830
Domino tips that,
816
00:39:27,210 --> 00:39:29,080
it will make
the rest fall.
817
00:39:33,540 --> 00:39:37,210
If you don't stand up
for something,
you will fall for anything.
818
00:39:37,210 --> 00:39:42,960
And we can't keep falling
for police brutality.
819
00:39:48,750 --> 00:39:53,540
DONALD JONES: My view is,
when a police officer
attracts more than a black man,
820
00:39:53,540 --> 00:39:55,170
as opposed to white men,
821
00:39:55,170 --> 00:39:57,960
there is a difference.
Not with every police.
822
00:39:57,960 --> 00:39:59,920
But with a lot.
823
00:39:59,920 --> 00:40:03,750
(Stuttering)
And the difference is,
824
00:40:03,750 --> 00:40:06,790
which I see,
what is it with white men,
825
00:40:06,790 --> 00:40:08,290
when they pull you,
826
00:40:08,290 --> 00:40:09,710
they enforce the law.
827
00:40:09,710 --> 00:40:12,580
Their whole attitude
is
828
00:40:12,580 --> 00:40:13,790
When they pull over
a black man,
829
00:40:13,790 --> 00:40:15,460
it's about control.

" Don't reach for anything
until I tell you. "
833
00:40:22,540 --> 00:40:24,420
That's how a black man
treated.
834
00:40:24,420 --> 00:40:26,250
Raise your hand.
For what?
What has...

I don't know if you have
fucking knife, jerk
I don't have a knife.

JONES: When they pull over
a white man,
843
00:40:44,750 --> 00:40:46,580
or someone who is white,
this about enforcing the law.
844
00:40:46,580 --> 00:40:48,000
"Sir, are you aware
have you just turned on the light?"
845
00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:49,920
But the conversation
didn't start with,
846
00:40:52,330 --> 00:40:56,580
"Put your hand
the steering wheel.
847
00:40:56,580 --> 00:40:58,290
" Don't move until
I tell you to move. "
848
00:40:58,290 --> 00:41:00,170
So I said,
"We will go there"
849
00:41:00,170 --> 00:41:04,000
because at the end of
the chase, many times,
the suspect escaped,
850
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:05,580
and there
where they stopped,
851
00:41:05,580 --> 00:41:07,750
it's right next to
swamp area
852
00:41:07,750 --> 00:41:08,880
and a lake.
853
00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:10,710
So they can run
out there in the bush.
854
00:41:10,710 --> 00:41:13,460
We might need a lot of
officers to try and find the suspects.
855
00:41:13,460 --> 00:41:16,080
And we don't even know
for what they are chasing,
at that time.

which means the situation
is in hand, they don't need
other officers.
859
00:41:24,330 --> 00:41:26,290
I said, "Well, you know,

00:41:26,290 --> 00:41:27,960

At the end of the park there.

"Why didn't you record it?"
We just bought a camera.

I don't want to."

I went to the living room,

has the situation
good at hand.

946
00:45:50,250 --> 00:45:51,960
you can see some
batons and items
947
00:45:51,960 --> 00:45:53,540
and some roll around .
948
00:45:53,540 --> 00:45:55,420
Well, the first
I noticed when I stopped
949
00:45:55,420 --> 00:45:58,120
was the Taser cable.
950
00:45:58,120 --> 00:46:01,540
And from that I assumed
that they have tried
951
00:46:01,540 --> 00:46:03,620
Taser on him
and it didn't work.
952
00:46:03,620 --> 00:46:06,250
And he was on
the ground and they
tried to control it.
953
00:46:06,250 --> 00:46:07,460
Tell him what to do.
954
00:46:07,460 --> 00:46:10,040

You hit them,

00:46:12,380 --> 00:46:15,080
the way they train us,
they will do what you say to them.
957
00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:17,210
And if that doesn't work,
then you paralyze it

bones or joints.

what happened was,

two CHP officers
1011
00:49:06,710 --> 00:49:09,540
stand there
as observers
1012
00:49:09,540 --> 00:49:13,290
pay attention to their people
they stop
1013
00:49:14,420 --> 00:49:18,670
subject to Tasering,
1014
00:49:18,670 --> 00:49:20,290
hit with PR-24.
1015
00:49:20,290 --> 00:49:22,790
I mean, he is there
hit like a dog.
1016
00:49:22,790 --> 00:49:26,460
What I witnessed at the scene
is the 100% LAPD policy.
1017
00:49:28,120 --> 00:49:30,080
BRADLEY:
I saw the article
in the newspaper.
1018
00:49:30,080 --> 00:49:32,460
I have heard
about the incident.
1019
00:49:32,460 --> 00:49:34,960
And I was just as surprised
and as...
1020
00:49:34,960 --> 00:49:36,960
Just as angry as anyone.
1021
00:49:36,960 --> 00:49:39,580
At the same time,
black and brown people
being beaten,
1022
00:49:39,580 --> 00:49:44,040
shot, suffocated to death
by police forces
throughout the country.

the anger planted by police
attacking a black citizen
1024
00:49:47,290 --> 00:49:50,210
developing into
citizen attacks
on police chief today.
1025
00:49:50,210 --> 00:49:53,500
People will slowly return
to its realization
1026
00:49:53,500 --> 00:49:55,750
that this is
a deviation.
1027
00:49:55,750 --> 00:49:58,880
PROTESTERS: They all have to go!
They all have to go!
1028

(SPEAKING IN FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
1029
00:50:01,830 --> 00:50:05,000
We are here to see
that Gates was fired and all of them
fifteen were sued.
1030
00:50:05,000 --> 00:50:08,170
BRADLEY: When public < br /> began to lose confidence
in the head,
1031
00:50:08,170 --> 00:50:09,540
he has to step aside.
1032
00:50:09,540 --> 00:50:13,670
Someone thinks I'm going to go
settles down just
really wrong.
1033
00:50:13,670 --> 00:50:17,620
Because I have,
You know, directly involved
at 39 and Dalton,
1034
00:50:17,620 --> 00:50:19,670
and I see the way
that was dragged out,
1035
00:50:19,670 --> 00:50:21,380
I sent Gates a memo.
1036
00:50:21,380 --> 00:50:24,420
And I said to him,
"You know, Chief,
you have to catch people
1037
00:50:24,420 --> 00:50:27,170
" so do you
take that momentum.
1038
00:50:27,170 --> 00:50:30,120
"They will save, and then
continue the investigation,
1039
00:50:30,120 --> 00:50:32,170
" and then leave
district attorney
handle that. "
1040
00:50:32,170 --> 00:50:33,120

Please sit down.
1043
00:50:40,120 --> 00:50:45,040
We will be today,
or tomorrow morning
at the latest,
1044
00:50:45,040 --> 00:50:47,290
request the prosecutor of the
region from this area
1045
00:50:47,290 --> 00:50:50,920
to file criminal charges
against our three officers.
1046
00:50:53,210 --> 00:50:55,540
TERRY WHITE: It just happened,
my supervisor came to me
1047
00:50:55,540 --> 00:50:57,670
and said, "Can you
see this?"
1048
00:50:57,670 --> 00:51:01,540
You know, I am a lawyer
in that division will
handle this type of case.
1049
00:51:01,540 --> 00:51:03,500
Which nothing to do
by being black,
1050
00:51:03,500 --> 00:51:05,750
it just happened
I was in that division.
1051
00:51:05,750 --> 00:51:07,000
I mean, it's not...
1052
00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:09,040
You know, the case
didn't happen,
1053
00:51:09,040 --> 00:51:11,790
and they revoked me
out of Pomona or...
1054
00:51:11,790 --> 00:51:14,670
(Stuttering)
Somewhere...
You know, I just...
1055
00:51:14,670 --> 00:51:18,330
I am a lawyer on
the division will
handle this type of case.
1056
00:51:18,330 --> 00:51:21,380
We are a rare one,
or just a division,
1057
00:51:21,380 --> 00:51:23,790
where we actually
carry out our own investigation.
1058
00:51:23,790 --> 00:51:26,170
So, we come out and we
start exploring that area,
1059
00:51:26,170 --> 00:51:28,000
looking for complex
apartment
1060
00:51:28,000 --> 00:51:31,040
it's across the street
from where
the beating happened.
1061
00:51:31,040 --> 00:51:33,210
We knocked on the door,
the apartment door.
1062
00:51:33,210 --> 00:51:38,750
Um, and we met
George Holliday,
who filmed the incident,
1063
00:51:38,750 --> 00:51:42,920
and we talked
to the people who lived
across the street
1064
00:51:42,920 --> 00:51:45,040
who witnessed it.
1065
00:51:45,040 --> 00:51:49,040
There was never a thought
in my mind that there was
justification.
(small laugh)
1066
00:51:49,040 --> 00:51:52,080
After talk
with witnesses
and see the entire recording,
1067
00:51:52,080 --> 00:51:55,540
it's clear there
there's no justification for this.
1068
00:51:55,540 --> 00:51:58,710
I announce today
that we have obtained
charges
1069
00:51:58,710 --> 00:52:01,210
against four Los Angeles
police officers...
1070
00:52:01,210 --> 00:52:06,040
You know, you have
three officers used,
uh, forced.
1071
00:52:06,040 --> 00:52:08,000
IRA REINER: Laurence Powell...
WHITE: Two main officers.
1072
00:52:08,000 --> 00:52:10,960
REINER: Timothy Wind...
WHITE: Become a Powell Officer
and Wind Officer .
1073
00:52:10,960 --> 00:52:13,960
REINER: Theodore Briseno...
WHITE: He kicks
towards the end.
1074
00:52:13,960 --> 00:52:15,920
REINER: And Sergeant
Stacey Koon.
1075
00:52:15,920 --> 00:52:19,290
And then you have it
sergeant who seems to be
directing activities.
1076
00:52:19,290 --> 00:52:22,080
... has been charged
for attack
with deadly weapons
1077
00:52:22,080 --> 00:52:25,750
and for excessive use of
strength under
color authority.
1078
00:52:25,750 --> 00:52:29,120
Powell and Wind Officers
and Sergeant Koon
are charged further
1079
00:52:29,120 --> 00:52:31,540
by causing
severe bodily injury.
1080
00:52:31,540 --> 00:52:33,420
Sergeant Koon
and Officer Powell
1081
00:52:33,420 --> 00:52:36,790
have also been charged
for filling out false reports.
1082
00:52:36,790 --> 00:52:39,380
There was a police report
at the incident
1083
00:52:39,380 --> 00:52:43,540
and the police report
do not accurately reflect
what you saw in the video.
1084
00:52:43,540 --> 00:52:47,710
REINER: And finally,
Sergeant Koon is charged
because of being involved in concealment
1085
00:52:47,710 --> 00:52:50,830
to hide from superiors
his own criminal behavior.
1086
00:52:50,830 --> 00:52:54,080
WHITE: You know,
at that time
assigned to me
1087
00:52:54,080 --> 00:52:55,790
it's not so big
a story.
1088
00:52:55,790 --> 00:52:57,620
You know, there's an article
in LA Times,
1089
00:52:57,620 --> 00:52:59,880
it's like on
page eight or nine.
1090
00:52:59,880 --> 00:53:02,670
After grand jury,
1091
00:53:02,670 --> 00:53:05,830
it's like, "Okay,
this will happen
big agreement. "

most of us can
ever imagined.
1094
00:53:14,040 --> 00:53:18,040
LAKESHIA COMBS: In 1991,
I was 12 years old,
happened 13.
1095
00:53:19,750 --> 00:53:21,830
We always have a good life.
1096
00:53:21,830 --> 00:53:23,540
Good advantage,
because of our father
1097
00:53:23,540 --> 00:53:26,500
as you say,
he has a good job.
1098
00:53:26,500 --> 00:53:28,290
He's a former marine.
1099
00:53:28,290 --> 00:53:32,120
He likes to travel,
so we do everything...
1100
00:53:32,120 --> 00:53:36,120
All those things ,
I want to say "special kids"
do, we also do it.
1101
00:53:36,120 --> 00:53:38,290
We are only
middle class special.
1102
00:53:38,290 --> 00:53:40,080
Growing in ,
You know, LA,
1103
00:53:40,080 --> 00:53:45,620
I think we have a very strong
sense of community with the Korean community
.
1104
00:53:45,620 --> 00:53:48,420
You know, many friends me,
many American Koreans
friends
1105
00:53:48,420 --> 00:53:49,880
have the same
immigrant story.
1106
00:53:49,880 --> 00:53:53,000
I am a latchkey child,
we go home alone
1107
00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:54,670
and our parents
are working
all night.
1108
00:53:54,670 --> 00:53:56,750
You know, they worked hard
and we know why
they did it.
1109
00:53:56,750 --> 00:53:58,880
They worked
for the future front of us,
1110
00:53:58,880 --> 00:54:01,420
and because they love us.
1111
00:54:01,420 --> 00:54:05,790
I have never felt that way
nothing is better than me,
or I am better than
1112
00:54:05,790 --> 00:54:09,880
Or because of my color,
or their color, that's them
better than me.
1113
00:54:09,880 --> 00:54:13,290
Only that person
you will...
1114
00:54:13,290 --> 00:54:15,830
That I have seen my mother
have a problem with

there is always tension
in South Central

between the Korean community
the store has liquor,
the 7-11 "s,

to Korean shops,

they follow you everywhere.

When you first enter,
they follow you everywhere.
1129
00:54:59,790 --> 00:55:01,170
Make sure that
you don't steal anything.
1130
00:55:01,170 --> 00:55:03,170
You enter the store,
you think you can
buy something,
1131
00:55:03,170 --> 00:55:05,500
but then someone
follows you around...
1132

It's just not comfortable
feeling.

just constantly?

That's... Not good.

very, I would say,
a multicultural school,
1136
00:55:17,250 --> 00:55:20,080
and thus , in that sense,
I have contact with,
1137
00:55:20,080 --> 00:55:22,210

ethnic groups.

The liquor store
where we usually go,
1140
00:55:43,210 --> 00:55:45,250
their shop, that
like a grocery store.
1141
00:55:45,250 --> 00:55:48,960
They bring produce,
video games , baby items,
1142
00:55:48,960 --> 00:55:50,750
video machines...
1143
00:55:50,750 --> 00:55:54,460
So it's indeed like that
hangout, for some kids.
1144
00:55:54,460 --> 00:55:57,750
Mrs. Du, she doesn't like us
to hang out at the store.
1145
00:55:57,750 --> 00:55:59,580
"Pulanglah! Pulanglah!"
1146
00:55:59,580 --> 00:56:02,170
It's always
his favorite words,
"Go home! Go home!"
1147
00:56:02,170 --> 00:56:05,830
Because he likes it,
three video games,
so, we want to play Pac-Man,
1148
00:56:05,830 --> 00:56:07,880
he's like,
"Play once and go."
1149
00:56:07,880 --> 00:56:09,580
But it's like,
1150
00:56:09,580 --> 00:56:11,210
"We are here to play,
we have money. "

COMBS: Mrs. Du, um...
1155
00:56:29,790 --> 00:56:33,460
He might have been intimidated by some people
from the gangbang around,
1156
00:56:33,460 --> 00:56:34,880
maybe...
1157
00:56:34,880 --> 00:56:38,790
But I didn't see any reason
to be intimidated by us as a child
child.
1158
00:56:41,710 --> 00:56:45,330
Our mother sent us to the store,
we have to pick her up
some, um...
1159
00:56:45,920 --> 00:56:47,670
Curl Activator.
1160
00:56:47,670 --> 00:56:49,500
Some
oil sheen for his hair.
1161
00:56:49,500 --> 00:56:51,790
So, we have to go to the
shop to buy it for him.
1162
00:56:51,790 --> 00:56:53,880

00:56:53,880 --> 00:56:55,880

And we walk to the store,
1166
00:56:59,620 --> 00:57:03,540
and his favorite,
once he entered,
1167
00:57:03,540 --> 00:57:05,830
he didn't do anything
but went straight to
video games, like he did.
1168
00:57:05,830 --> 00:57:07,330
He went to the video game
, I went
1169
00:57:07,330 --> 00:57:10,790
and I talked to Mrs. Du,
1170
00:57:10,790 --> 00:57:14,960
because the product I need
is behind the desk.
1171
00:57:14,960 --> 00:57:19,330

He goes backwards.

00:57:40,080 --> 00:57:42,580
So, I walk again < br /> to list

opened, so you can see

with the money in his hand.

"You're trying to steal."

She's like, "Leave my bag is gone, "
and Latasha punched him.
1195

When he punched him,
he pulled out the bench
and swung it at him.

01:05:58,120 --> 01:06:01,040
There is a place
in this area where
you can get a fair jury.
1339
01:06:01,040 --> 01:06:03,710
We know it's in LA County,
1340
01:06:03,710 --> 01:06:08,120
You know, there have been
many high profile cases
for years.
1341
01:06:08,120 --> 01:06:09,290
They haven't been moved.
1342
01:06:09,290 --> 01:06:11,620
He got a metal stick from
right there from the gate,
1343
01:06:11,620 --> 01:06:12,790
hit his head.
1344
01:06:12,790 --> 01:06:14,210
WHITE: You know,
Night Stalker.
1345
01:06:14,210 --> 01:06:16,120
He has the whole
the county is scared.
1346
01:06:16,120 --> 01:06:19,920
You know, you don't even
leave your window open
at night, at that time.
1347
01:06:19,920 --> 01:06:22,250
Charles Manson, I mean,
that's a big case.
1348
01:06:22,250 --> 01:06:24,000
Itu adalah kasus nasional.
1349
01:06:24,000 --> 01:06:25,670
If those cases persist,
1350
01:06:25,670 --> 01:06:27,460
what's so different
about this case?
1351
01:06:27,460 --> 01:06:30,080
And we haven't even talked
to the potential panel yet
1352
01:06:30,080 --> 01:06:32,250
REPORTER:
An appeals court ruled
was due to publicity
1353
01:06:32,250 --> 01:06:34,710
and political turmoil
surrounding the case,
1354
01:06:34,710 --> 01:06:38,580
four officers can't
get a fair trial
in Los Angeles County.
1355
01:06:38,580 --> 01:06:40,580
WHITE: We are assigned
to Judge Kamins.
1356
01:06:40,580 --> 01:06:44,170
So, he handle the most
from the pre-trial movement,
1357
01:06:44,170 --> 01:06:45,960
including place changes.
1358
01:06:45,960 --> 01:06:49,540
And then he sends the
message sent
to one of the clerks my law,
1359
01:06:49,540 --> 01:06:52,040
say, you know,
"Don't panic."
1360
01:06:52,040 --> 01:06:56,170
Yeah you know,
I don't know why he feels
we will panic.
1361
01:06:56,170 --> 01:07:00,000
You know, ethically,
as a prosecutor, we have to
reveal it in defense.
1362
01:07:00,000 --> 01:07:01,960
And he was deleted.
1363
01:07:01,960 --> 01:07:05,000
You know, it was moved
for Judge Weisberg.
1364
01:07:05,000 --> 01:07:06,620
He will make it
the decision about
1365
01:07:06,620 --> 01:07:08,120
where the change of place
will be.
1366
01:07:08,120 --> 01:07:10,000
REPORTER: Option
given to Judge Weisberg
1367
01:07:10,000 --> 01:07:12,460
Alameda, Riverside,
and Ventura region.
1368
01:07:12,460 --> 01:07:14,420
WHITE: And we asked
for Alameda County.
1369
01:07:14,420 --> 01:07:16,830
Because we feel that
county demographics
1370
01:07:16,830 --> 01:07:18,420
are more similar
1371
01:07:18,420 --> 01:07:21,210
demographics from Los Angeles County,
1372
01:07:21,210 --> 01:07:23,040
whereas we no
think Ventura did it.
1373
01:07:23,040 --> 01:07:25,250
The court chose
County of Ventura
1374
01:07:25,250 --> 01:07:28,080
as a place for the
trial of this case.
1375
01:07:28,080 --> 01:07:30,880
Dan Ventura seperti, "Yah,
kami mendapatkan gedung pengadilan ini.
1376
01:07:30,880 --> 01:07:32,000
"It's not used."
1377
01:07:33,880 --> 01:07:38,040
So, you know, we don't even
know there's a courthouse
in Simi Valley.
1378
01:07:38,040 --> 01:07:40,500
I think he think
it's comfortable
for witnesses,
1379
01:07:40,500 --> 01:07:41,960
uh, for all parties,
1380
01:07:43,120 --> 01:07:45,120
for itself.
1381
01:07:45,120 --> 01:07:50,000
All parties
during the trial
staying in Simi Valley.
1382
01:07:50,000 --> 01:07:53,540
We all pretty much live
at the hotel out there
during the trial.
1383
01:07:53,540 --> 01:07:55,170
Judge Weisberg commuted
1384
01:07:56,670 --> 01:07:59,210
I believe he lives
on Westside.
1385
01:07:59,210 --> 01:08:01,120
If it's already
in Alameda County,
1386
01:08:01,120 --> 01:08:02,500
he won't do it
able to do that.
1387
01:08:02,500 --> 01:08:04,670
He must live
in Alameda County
1388
01:08:04,670 --> 01:08:06,710
just as we will...
We will do it.
1389
01:08:08,830 --> 01:08:11,000
Sekarang, saya tidak pernah menanyakan hal itu kepadanya.
1390
01:08:11,000 --> 01:08:14,210
I have never... But, you know,
we always suspected it.
1391
01:08:14,210 --> 01:08:16,380
That was a part of
the decision in his mind.
1392
01:08:22,170 --> 01:08:24,880
REPORTER: Simi Valley
is a city of 100,000 people
1393
01:08:24,880 --> 01:08:27,420
only 35 miles north of
from Los Angeles.
1394
01:08:27,420 --> 01:08:30,460
Residents of Simi Valley
88% white .
1395
01:08:30,460 --> 01:08:32,790
Only 1.5% is black.
1396
01:08:32,790 --> 01:08:37,290
That's where
people who don't want
problems from Los Angeles moved.
1397
01:08:37,290 --> 01:08:39,040
< And of course,
they tend to be white.
1398
01:08:39,040 --> 01:08:43,500
WHITE: And I think
it's probably 1 or 2%
African Americans.
1399
01:08:43,500 --> 01:08:45,460
So we know, so far
African-Americans,
1400
01:08:45,460 --> 01:08:48,080
there is no possibility of happening
becoming very much on the jury.
1401
01:08:48,080 --> 01:08:52,080
And how did I get that notice < br /> that I will go
to the special court,
1402
01:08:52,080 --> 01:08:54,620
I'm sitting
on my little workstation
1403
01:08:54,620 --> 01:09:00,380
and I got a call from
county jury service.
1404
01:09:00,380 --> 01:09:06,040
And that said, "You
will not come
Ventura County Court.
1405
01:09:06,040 --> 01:09:09,000
"You go
to Simi Valley Courthouse. "
1406
01:09:09,000 --> 01:09:13,080
And then I think,
" Whoa, what am I
going there? "
1407
01:09:13,080 --> 01:09:16,960
Because it's about maybe
30, 40 miles from my house.
1408
01:09:20,040 --> 01:09:24,080
When I got there and then I
found out what the case was
around,
1409
01:09:26,210 --> 01:09:27,880
I said, "Oh, my goodness!"
1410
01:09:27,880 --> 01:09:32,250
And I said, "This is
something I want, uh...
1411
01:09:32,250 --> 01:09:34,420
"I want to know
what happened."
1412
01:09:34,420 --> 01:09:38,120
Because of my initial feelings
in this case
1413
01:09:39,380 --> 01:09:41,040
they were all guilty.
1414
01:09:41,040 --> 01:09:42,500
WHITE: We have a
jury questionnaire,
1415
01:09:45,290 --> 01:09:49,880
and that's the first time
where we think
1416
01:09:51,000 --> 01:09:52,960
we might be in trouble.
1417
01:09:52,960 --> 01:09:56,290
Okay, this is very extraordinary
conservative groups.
1418
01:09:56,290 --> 01:10:00,000
This is very extraordinary
oriented towards law enforcement
group.
1419
01:10:00,000 --> 01:10:01,880
MOULIN: Who lives
in Simi Valley?
1420
01:10:01,880 --> 01:10:05,330
Every third house is also
occupied by a firefighter
or a police officer
1421
01:10:05,330 --> 01:10:07,540
Of course, why not move this
to the all-white community?
1422
01:10:07,540 --> 01:10:10,790
That is the smartest thing
the lawyers have done it
to those four officers.
1423
01:10:10,790 --> 01:10:14,120
They have a point,
1424
01:10:14,120 --> 01:10:18,210
because, you know,
we have one Filipino,
one Hispanic,
1425
01:10:18,210 --> 01:10:21,540
and the rest of us
are mostly white.
1426
01:10:22,580 --> 01:10:25,540
You know, that's the point,
1427
01:10:25,540 --> 01:10:30,500
But should that be...
Should that determine
the result of this case?
1428
01:10:30,500 --> 01:10:31,750
I don't think so.
1429
01:10:31,750 --> 01:10:33,420
REPORTER: In South
California today,
1430
01:10:33,420 --> 01:10:36,670
four Los Angeles
police officers accused
of beating Rodney King
1431
01:10:36,670 --> 01:10:37,790
was tried.
1432
01:10:37,790 --> 01:10:39,170
WHITE: Laurence M. Powell,
1433
01:10:39,170 --> 01:10:40,790
Timothy E. Wind,
1434
01:10:40,790 --> 01:10:42,290
Theodore J. Briseno,
1435
01:10:42,290 --> 01:10:44,000
and Stacey C. Koon
1436
01:10:44,000 --> 01:10:45,830
has entered an innocent
request.
1437
01:10:46,790 --> 01:10:48,790
We think we have
a strong case.
1438
01:10:48,790 --> 01:10:50,580
So, whatever doubts
we may have
1439
01:10:50,580 --> 01:10:54,210
during the jury selection or
looking at the questionnaire,
1440
01:10:54,210 --> 01:10:57,080
once the case starts,
there is no doubt.
1441
01:10:57,080 --> 01:11:01,540
But I thought prosecution
thought they had a slam dunk,
1442
01:11:01,540 --> 01:11:03,790
that I might do too.
1443
01:11:03,790 --> 01:11:09,290
So I didn't think
they brought the best
prosecutors at there.
1444
01:11:09,290 --> 01:11:11,080
I don't think so
doing a very good job.
1445
01:11:11,080 --> 01:11:13,210
REPORTER: Without naming
names, Reiner said
1446
01:11:13,210 --> 01:11:16,670
District Attorney's Office is almost evenly divided
1447
01:11:16,670 --> 01:11:19,920
for the question
whether or not to call
King Rodney as a witness.
1448
01:11:19,920 --> 01:11:22,580
WHITE: He is still
very traumatized
1449
01:11:22,580 --> 01:11:24,170
and not true
has recollection.
1450
01:11:24,170 --> 01:11:25,670
INTERVIEWER: Did you hear
any kind of insult?
1451
01:11:25,670 --> 01:11:26,920
What do you mean
with insults?
1452
01:11:26,920 --> 01:11:29,620
Are there any types
racial comments made the same once?
1453
01:11:29,620 --> 01:11:31,170
Oh, racial?
No.
1454
01:11:31,170 --> 01:11:33,170
WHITE: I mean, I don't know
we can even do it
1455
01:11:33,170 --> 01:11:36,330
lead it through an
effective direct check,
1456
01:11:36,330 --> 01:11:40,000
let alone worry about
what will happen
on cross examination.
1457
01:11:40,000 --> 01:11:42,750
Rodney King
has another run-in with
police in Los Angeles.
1458
01:11:42,750 --> 01:11:45,830
Did you accidentally try
run to the police officer?
1459
01:11:45,830 --> 01:11:47,960
No no.
I won't get hurt...
Not everything?
1460
01:11:47,960 --> 01:11:50,830
I am really scared of
for my life, scared to death
1461
01:11:50,830 --> 01:11:54,920
that if this person gets back up,
he will take my gun
get away from me
1462
01:11:54,920 --> 01:11:56,500
or there will be
being shot.
1463
01:11:56,500 --> 01:11:58,210
And I did
everything I could
1464
01:11:58,210 --> 01:11:59,710
to keep it low
on the ground.
1465
01:11:59,710 --> 01:12:02,580
WHITE: You didn't see it
to have weapons, right?
1466
01:12:02,580 --> 01:12:04,250
Yes, I did see it
to have weapons.
1467
01:12:04,250 --> 01:12:06,000
What kind of weapon < br /> does Mr. King have?
1468
01:12:06,000 --> 01:12:09,080
That is his body, and he is
under the influence of PCP.
1469
01:12:09,080 --> 01:12:13,000
But, you know, after we
learned that there isn't one
in his blood,
1470
01:12:13,000 --> 01:12:16,170
well, then, I guess
he's not on PCP.
1471
01:12:16,170 --> 01:12:19,880
Efforts to characterize
Rodney King acts stupid
1472
01:12:19,880 --> 01:12:21,500
or he is
under influence
1473
01:12:21,500 --> 01:12:22,580
all red herring.
1474
01:12:22,580 --> 01:12:24,920
They are all basically
side problems.
1475
01:12:24,920 --> 01:12:26,830
The real problem is here
is that this cop
1476
01:12:26,830 --> 01:12:28,710
uses excessive force
and almost kills this person.
1477
01:12:28,710 --> 01:12:31,210
When they are executed
this procedure,
1478
01:12:31,210 --> 01:12:35,500
para passenger, Freddie Helms,
who unfortunately
deceased,
1479
01:12:35,500 --> 01:12:38,420
has nothing to do
with this case,
won't testify,
1480
01:12:38,420 --> 01:12:41,250
and Mr. Bryant Allen according to.
1481
01:12:41,250 --> 01:12:44,750
They come out.
They go down
in the prone position
on the right side of the car.
1482
01:12:45,750 --> 01:12:47,040
Lord Raja no.
1483
01:12:47,040 --> 01:12:50,250
Something must happen
before the video starts.
1484
01:12:51,750 --> 01:12:55,580
And I really want to know
what happened.
1485
01:12:55,580 --> 01:12:59,040
WHITE: The argument
will be made by them
that he ran towards them,
1486
01:12:59,040 --> 01:13:01,750
and that's why they
to start using their stick.
1487
01:13:01,750 --> 01:13:04,670
Okay, but it's too long.
1488
01:13:04,670 --> 01:13:08,790
JONES: There are some
early hits or striking
Rodney King
1489
01:13:08,790 --> 01:13:11,290
with a stick
it's necessary.
1490
01:13:11,290 --> 01:13:13,880
I understand that
as a police officer,
1491
01:13:13,880 --> 01:13:16,210
a backup police officer.
1492
01:13:16,210 --> 01:13:20,290
But then somewhere
about 30-something attacked
with a stick
1493
01:13:20,290 --> 01:13:22,790
and after accompanying it
several times,
1494
01:13:22,790 --> 01:13:24,250
this doesn't work.
1495
01:13:24,250 --> 01:13:26,080
This is a man in pain,
1496
01:13:26,080 --> 01:13:29,040
dan pada titik tertentu,
Anda harus melihat video itu
dan berkata, "Cukup sudah cukup."
1497
01:13:29,040 --> 01:13:32,250
Most officers know that
with a big man like that,
1498
01:13:32,250 --> 01:13:34,580
you have to jump on him.
1499
01:13:34,580 --> 01:13:35,880
I mean, you have
to gather around him.
1500
01:13:35,880 --> 01:13:38,580
STACEY KOON: I have never been
trained in a herd.
1501
01:13:38,580 --> 01:13:41,500
I am one of these officers
who fell through the cracks.
1502
01:13:41,500 --> 01:13:43,750
MOULIN : Stacey works for me,
and I am very happy
lieutenant
1503
01:13:43,750 --> 01:13:45,830
when he was moved
out of my division.
1504
01:13:45,830 --> 01:13:48,420
And, of course, we all know
how his career ended.
1505
01:13:48,420 --> 01:13:51,960
What you see on the tape
is the training
taught by LAPD.
1506
01:13:51,960 --> 01:13:57,120
That is his policy.
That's the procedure.
That is the training.
1507
01:13:57,120 --> 01:13:59,620
ATTORNEY: Now, you turned around
there.
THEODORE BRISENO: Yes, sir.
1508
01:13:59,620 --> 01:14:01,500
I went to Sergeant Koon.
1509
01:14:01,500 --> 01:14:04,120
ATTORNEY:
Well, and what are you saying?
1510
01:14:04,120 --> 01:14:06,290
I asked him what the
is happening here.
1511
01:14:06,290 --> 01:14:09,540
Well, are you use
only those words?
Yes sir.
1512
01:14:09,540 --> 01:14:12,000
HENRY KING:
Lawyer Briseno
point of view like
1513
01:14:12,000 --> 01:14:13,710
other officers
is a bad person
1514
01:14:13,710 --> 01:14:17,620
and Briseno is there
to help Rodney.
1515
01:14:17,620 --> 01:14:19,120
The only thing we have
trying to do
1516
01:14:19,120 --> 01:14:21,710
keep away from going
to the highest level,
1517
01:14:21,710 --> 01:14:24,380
deadly power
from the grip of
and use of firearms.
1518
01:14:24,380 --> 01:14:26,330
REPORTER: What the other
techniques that you will
have used?
1519
01:14:26,330 --> 01:14:28,040
Like in Simi Valley,
I testify to that.
1520
01:14:28,040 --> 01:14:29,330
I will be used
hold gulp.
1521
01:14:29,330 --> 01:14:31,540
There won't be
one baton hit.
1522
01:14:31,540 --> 01:14:33,750
All of these events
have ended
in 15 seconds.
1523
01:14:33,750 --> 01:14:36,750
You meant to tell me
that he tried to justify
1524
01:14:36,750 --> 01:14:38,580
he couldn't use the grip that is suffocated
1525
01:14:38,580 --> 01:14:42,290
but can he beat that guy
with his PR-24 and tase
hell out of him?
1526
01:14:42,290 --> 01:14:43,420
It's ridiculous.
1527
01:14:44,540 --> 01:14:46,330
HENRY: In middle school,
I don't know, you know...
1528
01:14:46,330 --> 01:14:48,540
I don't have
all black friends.
1529
01:14:48,540 --> 01:14:50,040
What I'm have, you know...
1530
01:14:50,040 --> 01:14:52,500
People in me
the environment is white
1531
01:14:52,500 --> 01:14:55,000
and my friends are white.
1532
01:14:55,000 --> 01:14:59,960
So, I I guess I chose there
to be white.
1533
01:14:59,960 --> 01:15:01,580
And I... You know, I...
1534
01:15:02,710 --> 01:15:05,580
I guess I'm not proud
to be black then .
1535
01:15:06,710 --> 01:15:09,250
My mother is Caucasian.
1536
01:15:09,250 --> 01:15:11,170
She's from Arkansas.
1537
01:15:11,170 --> 01:15:14,040
Their family is white.
1538
01:15:14,040 --> 01:15:17,670
And my father, he is
not all black.
1539
01:15:17,670 --> 01:15:20,620
I think he might be
two-thirds.
1540
01:15:20,620 --> 01:15:24,120
Because I did a DNA test
on myself
1541
01:15:24,120 --> 01:15:28,540
to see, you know,
how much black is
I really am,
1542
01:15:28,540 --> 01:15:32,830
and it's up 29%.
1543
01:15:32,830 --> 01:15:35,620
It's definitely easier
white than being black.
1544
01:15:35,620 --> 01:15:37,460
I would think if you...
1545
01:15:37,460 --> 01:15:40,540
You know , if you have
to live your whole life
one way or another.
1546
01:15:40,540 --> 01:15:43,460
And I think that's why
I choose to be white,
1547
01:15:43,460 --> 01:15:44,670
because it's easier.
1548
01:15:45,750 --> 01:15:47,540
But... (SNIFFS)
1549
01:15:47,540 --> 01:15:50,500
Then, you have to...
You have to live
with yourself.
1550
01:15:50,500 --> 01:15:51,580
You have to say,
1551
01:15:52,670 --> 01:15:54,080
"Well, I'm not just white.
1552
01:15:55,880 --> 01:15:57,830
" I'm the black part. "
1553
01:16:00,290 --> 01:16:01,620
And I'm proud now.
1554
01:16:02,540 --> 01:16:03,540
So, you know, I did change.
1555
01:16:06,670 --> 01:16:09,620
WHITE: Lord Raja, he's not an
animal, right?
1556
01:16:09,620 --> 01:16:11,170
No sir.
Acting
like one.
1557
01:16:11,170 --> 01:16:13,670
He doesn't... He just
acts like that?
Yes sir.
1558
01:16:13,670 --> 01:16:16,040
ELFMONT: Officer Powell,
he doesn't have a good reputation
.
1559
01:16:16,040 --> 01:16:18,120
And so many people
not surprised
1560
01:16:18,120 --> 01:16:20,620
that's the thing first that
happened when he entered into
1561
01:16:20,620 --> 01:16:22,670
the use of great power
with a big man
1562
01:16:22,670 --> 01:16:26,790
he started, you know,
hit him with a stick
too often.
1563
01:16:26,790 --> 01:16:30,420
I see Stacey Koon,
you know, thinking,
1564
01:16:30,420 --> 01:16:33,420
"This doesn't work."
"Hey, you got the idea better? "
You know, only his mind.
1565
01:16:33,420 --> 01:16:35,500
He caught my eye.
He caught that thought.
1566
01:16:35,500 --> 01:16:37,420
And he said, "You take care of him
on the ground.
1567
01:16:37,420 --> 01:16:40,080
" You hit the joints.
You hold it
on the ground. "
1568
01:16:40,080 --> 01:16:43,290
Because he also knows
nothing else
I can do it.
1569
01:16:43,290 --> 01:16:45,420
And at that moment,
that night,
1570
01:16:45,420 --> 01:16:48,500
I suddenly knew that LAPD
policy was lacking.
1571
01:16:48,500 --> 01:16:51,790
And that's what caused it
what we saw in that video.
1572
01:16:51,790 --> 01:16:54,920
That's what can cause people
to say, "Why is there there
so many blows? "
1573
01:16:54,920 --> 01:16:56,920
That's why there are
lots of punches.
1574
01:16:56,920 --> 01:16:58,670
It's not because I'm overdoing it.
1575
01:16:58,670 --> 01:17:01,210
Not because I
lost control,
1576
01:17:01,210 --> 01:17:04,540
but because the LAPD policy
1577
01:17:04,540 --> 01:17:07,580
is designed to cause
the situation.
1578
01:17:07,580 --> 01:17:11,620
Why every time,
any evidence
1579
01:17:11,620 --> 01:17:15,170
About Laurence Powell
it's bad, is it someone
another mistake?
1580
01:17:15,170 --> 01:17:19,330
This is Terry White's mistake.
This is Alan Yochelson's mistake.
This is Ted's fault Briseno.
1581
01:17:19,330 --> 01:17:22,330
This is Lawrence Davis's mistake.
It's not this guy's fault.
1582
01:17:23,460 --> 01:17:25,120
Why not?
1583
01:17:25,120 --> 01:17:26,790
This is that guy.
And look at him.
1584
01:17:29,540 --> 01:17:32,080
This guy laughs.
1585
01:17:32,080 --> 01:17:34,210
This guy is talking...
(MAN SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY)
1586
01:17:34,210 --> 01:17:37,420
This little LAPD politician is
who says you can't use it
strangling handle.
1587
01:17:37,420 --> 01:17:38,880
Well, give me something else.
1588
01:17:38,880 --> 01:17:40,580
Give me something where
I don't need to hurt anyone this.
1589
01:17:40,580 --> 01:17:44,330
Where I don't need to use it
a metal pipe to beat
people submit,
1590
01:17:44,330 --> 01:17:46,670
that's them
send us there to do.
1591
01:17:46,670 --> 01:17:49,380
That's not necessary.
1592
01:17:49,380 --> 01:17:51,420
INTERVIEWER:
Is it important for you
that he's black?
1593
01:17:51,420 --> 01:17:53,920
If he's white in that
condition, will you
do the thing the same?
1594
01:17:53,920 --> 01:17:55,120
Sure.
1595
01:17:55,120 --> 01:17:56,380
You know, most people
won't believe that.
1596
01:17:56,380 --> 01:17:58,040
Yes, most people
are stupid.
1597
01:17:59,500 --> 01:18:02,250
Most people, you know,
they don't do this work,
1598
01:18:02,250 --> 01:18:03,500
and it's perfect for them.
1599
01:18:04,500 --> 01:18:05,750
They don't want to.
1600
01:18:05,750 --> 01:18:06,670
What is it?
1601
01:18:06,670 --> 01:18:08,500
They want you to do it
and not tell them about it?
1602
01:18:08,500 --> 01:18:10,750
Sure.
That's...
1603
01:18:10,750 --> 01:18:12,540
It's definitely more, now.
1604
01:18:12,540 --> 01:18:13,790
What's clear, tell me?
1605
01:18:13,790 --> 01:18:16,330
That they did that.
That they feel that way.
1606
01:18:16,330 --> 01:18:19,120
So, they think they are...
Everyone has a better idea.
1607
01:18:19,120 --> 01:18:21,170
Then why didn't they
come out and try it?
1608
01:18:21,170 --> 01:18:23,960
And they will know
very quickly that this
is a pretty difficult job.
1609
01:18:23,960 --> 01:18:25,880
INTERVIEWER:
You're looking, though,
for reconciliation, right?
1610
01:18:25,880 --> 01:18:29,210
You say, "Sure,
I can forgive them,
if they apologize
1611
01:18:29,210 --> 01:18:31,040
"and say they are sorry,"
they haven't done yet.
1612
01:18:31,040 --> 01:18:32,960
No, me, um...
You know, me... .
1613
01:18:37,000 --> 01:18:39,040
MY...
1614
01:18:39,040 --> 01:18:40,790
(STAMMERING) It's just that,
you know, it's like...
1615
01:18:40,790 --> 01:18:43,000
It's very difficult to answer
that question, you know?
1616
01:18:43,620 --> 01:18:45,290
I mean, I don't, uh...
1617
01:18:46,420 --> 01:18:50,250
I'm not face to face
with them, you know?
1618
01:18:50,250 --> 01:18:52,000
So, I mean, that's enough...
1619
01:18:53,290 --> 01:18:55,750
It's not those who ask me
whether I...
1620
01:18:55,750 --> 01:18:57,210
"Do you forgive us?"
1621
01:18:57,210 --> 01:18:59,420
You know, this is different.
You know, I...
1622
01:18:59,420 --> 01:19:01,120
It's already past
someone, You know, and...
1623
01:19:02,000 --> 01:19:04,040
It's like, you know, me...
1624
01:19:04,040 --> 01:19:06,170
This is different from
other people ask me,
1625
01:19:06,170 --> 01:19:07,380
"Do you forgive those people?"
1626
01:19:07,380 --> 01:19:08,670
You know, I...
1627
01:19:08,670 --> 01:19:09,830
INTERVIEWER:
But if they ask you?
1628
01:19:12,330 --> 01:19:14,920
(CHUCKLES) That's just me...
You know, that's all
I once wanted it.
1629
01:19:22,420 --> 01:19:24,330
WHITE: Are these officers
saying here,
1630
01:19:24,330 --> 01:19:27,580
because of their work,
because they
responsibility,
1631
01:19:27,580 --> 01:19:29,580
they cannot be sued.
1632
01:19:29,580 --> 01:19:31,460
No one can guess it.
1633
01:19:31,460 --> 01:19:34,460
No one can enter here
and say,
1634
01:19:34,460 --> 01:19:37,380
"You're wrong job.
That doesn't make sense
use of strength."
1635
01:19:37,380 --> 01:19:39,750
They think so
above the law.
1636
01:19:39,750 --> 01:19:42,120
Dan I'm here to tell them,
and they should know,
1637
01:19:42,120 --> 01:19:44,210
that no human being
is above the law.
1638
01:19:46,210 --> 01:19:47,750
HENRY: We are exiled.
1639
01:19:47,750 --> 01:19:49,250
I think one or two of us said
1640
01:19:51,040 --> 01:19:53,210
before they came
for consideration,
1641
01:19:54,420 --> 01:19:56,040
their family members
Tell them,
1642
01:19:57,420 --> 01:19:58,880
"You better choose guilt.
1643
01:20:01,420 --> 01:20:04,790
" Don't go back
with an innocent voice. "
1644
01:20:07,580 --> 01:20:08,960
MOULIN: Maybe reading
verdicts
1645
01:20:08,960 --> 01:20:13,250
will find
all officers guilty.
1646
01:20:13,250 --> 01:20:18,290
Or maybe the verdict
will find
All officers are innocent.
1647
01:20:18,290 --> 01:20:22,330
Or maybe it's already there
some officers aren't guilty,
some officers are guilty.
1648
01:20:22,330 --> 01:20:23,880
You never knew
with a jury.
1649
01:20:23,880 --> 01:20:25,290
They got it.
1650
01:20:25,290 --> 01:20:27,040
About time.
They got...
They got someone on camera.
1651
01:20:27,040 --> 01:20:28,380
They got it.
They got it.
1652
01:20:28,380 --> 01:20:29,250
It can't be justified...
1653
01:20:29,250 --> 01:20:30,460
They will do it
find them guilty.
1654
01:20:30,460 --> 01:20:32,330
The talk on the road is,
1655
01:20:33,920 --> 01:20:37,170
"Oh, man. This goes
to hit the fan.
1656
01:20:37,170 --> 01:20:41,330
" If the cop goes down, < there will be a problem. "
1657
01:20:41,330 --> 01:20:42,670
That's the community
say.
1658
01:20:47,500 --> 01:20:49,250
How are you doing
1659
01:20:49,250 --> 01:20:51,210
I have something
I think very...
1660
01:20:51,210 --> 01:20:53,710
Very important, and I hope
you will listen.
1661
01:20:55,330 --> 01:20:59,290
As you know,
as the world knows,
1662
01:20:59,290 --> 01:21:03,670
Simi Valley trials
Our officer is about
ready to go down.
1663
01:21:03,670 --> 01:21:07,330
After anything
the jury decides,
1664
01:21:07,330 --> 01:21:11,250
I think we need
look at ourselves
1665
01:21:11,250 --> 01:21:13,170

we do .

What is our special work.

01:21:15,790 --> 01:21:19,250

1668

is to provide peace
and security and good order
in our community.

a difficult year for us,
1674
01:21:41,080 --> 01:21:43,210

they came to me a few days
before the verdict
1682
01:22:03,620 --> 01:22:05,960
and said, "Will you
ask our friends
to go into custody?"
1683
01:22:05,960 --> 01:22:08,830
I'm like, "Sure, yes. Yes.
1684
01:22:08,830 --> 01:22:10,330
"Yes, they didn't go
courtroom,
1685
01:22:10,330 --> 01:22:13,250
" They will be arrested.
We will ask for that. "

Even when we have a verdict
1687
01:22:16,210 --> 01:22:21,080
and we enter
judge's room
before the verdict, um...
1688
01:22:21,080 --> 01:22:23,620
The judge tells they,
1689
01:22:23,620 --> 01:22:26,210
"Your people will go
into custody."
1690
01:22:27,120 --> 01:22:28,710
So, you know, that's not...
1691

there thinking,

"Wow, I want to know what
this verdict will be."
1693
01:22:32,210 --> 01:22:34,960
So, the verdict originated
the foreperson to the judge,
1694
01:22:34,960 --> 01:22:36,290
who was seen
in the form of the decision,
1695
01:22:36,290 --> 01:22:39,540
and then the officer was the person
who read the verdict.
1696
01:22:40,420 --> 01:22:43,330
And the first time
1697
01:22:43,330 --> 01:22:45,380
I have a hunch
there is a problem
1698
01:22:45,380 --> 01:22:47,330
is when I see
the face of the judge
1699
01:22:47,330 --> 01:22:49,790
when he saw
the verdict.
1700
01:22:49,790 --> 01:22:51,750
And he looked dumbfounded.
1701
01:22:51,750 --> 01:22:55,670
I told my colleague,
I was like, "Uh-oh.
1702
01:22:55,670 --> 01:22:57,040
"This isn't good."

When I come to the station,
2057
01:39:56,080 --> 01:39:58,620
Lieutenant Moulin gave me an explanation of
in the incident.
2058
01:39:58,620 --> 01:40:00,380
I went to his office
and said,
2059
01:40:00,380 --> 01:40:01,540
"We lost this."
2060
01:40:01,540 --> 01:40:03,460
And that's my right words.
2061
01:40:03,460 --> 01:40:06,000
"We have lost...
We have lost the city.
It's gone."
2062
01:40:06,000 --> 01:40:07,250
And I said to him, I said,
2063
01:40:07,250 --> 01:40:09,040
"But you were handled 71st
and Normandie, right?"
2064
01:40:09,040 --> 01:40:10,170
And he said,
"No, this is still going on. "
2065
01:40:10,170 --> 01:40:11,710
I said," Why are you here?

"Get your ass back there
and handle it. "

That's the order.
2068
01:40:17,210 --> 01:40:20,790
He said," Well, enter
the field and give me an update. "
2069

Well, that's what I did.
2070
01:40:22,040 --> 01:40:24,830
He was ordered to return
to 71 and Normandie.
2071
01:40:24,830 --> 01:40:26,500
There are some questions
if that happens or not.
2072

No one has ever said, "Return
to the intersection."

I won't do it.

at that intersection

butter the car,
dragging it out,

from the corner and told me...

and told him <

Because I don't think so
they will throw
stones or bottles at me.

if Mr. Choi raises his head,
they will.

01:44:14,960 --> 01:44:17,000
INTERVIEWER: What kind is
these people
2169
01:44:17,000 --> 01:44:18,580
who do this kind of thing?
2170
01:44:18,580 --> 01:44:19,580
LARRY TARVIN:
I think they are sick.
2171
01:44:20,540 --> 01:44:23,080
Why four or five men,
2172
01:44:23,080 --> 01:44:26,880
I would say they weighed
170 or more,
2173
01:44:26,880 --> 01:44:28,880
took a 125 pound man.
2174
01:44:29,920 --> 01:44:31,330
That doesn't make sense.
2175
01:44:31,960 --> 01:44:33,250
Not for me, it's not.
2176
01:44:34,080 --> 01:44:35,500
(COUGH)
2177
01:44:35,500 --> 01:44:36,960
INTERVIEWER: You think
they tried to kill you?
2178
01:44:36,960 --> 01:44:38,290
Oh, very possible.
2179
01:44:39,710 --> 01:44:42,330
Very good.
2180
01:44:42,330 --> 01:44:44,880
MAN: Not dear
for white men.
Lay your white ass.
2181
01:44:47,330 --> 01:44:49,830
That's how
Rodney King feels, white boy.
2182
01:44:50,750 --> 01:44:52,620
TARVIN: Have the shipment done
2183
01:44:52,620 --> 01:44:55,250
about four, five blocks
at the end of the road
from where this happened,
2184
01:44:55,250 --> 01:44:58,330
and they take the goods
truck.
2185
01:44:58,330 --> 01:44:59,790
If I know
something is happening
2186
01:44:59,790 --> 01:45:01,000
on that road specifically,
2187
01:45:01,000 --> 01:45:03,420
I will take
a different route.
2188
01:45:03,420 --> 01:45:05,790
You know, I really feel...
2189
01:45:05,790 --> 01:45:07,290
It's very bad for him.
2190
01:45:07,290 --> 01:45:11,460
MAN: What's wrong, Mr. White Caregiver?
Hey, go back home.
2191
01:45:11,460 --> 01:45:12,460
GOLDMAN: But you know...
2192
01:45:16,750 --> 01:45:19,790
You know, no...
You know...
2193
01:45:19,790 --> 01:45:23,670
(STAMMERING) You know,
no stop
what will happen
2194
01:45:23,670 --> 01:45:24,750
INTERVIEWER: Tell me
a little about that,
2195
01:45:24,750 --> 01:45:26,170
the young man
who helped you.
2196
01:45:26,170 --> 01:45:29,120
(STAMMERING)
I would say he's around 23,
2197
01:45:29,120 --> 01:45:32,210
maybe 25 years old
young black people.
2198
01:45:32,210 --> 01:45:33,460
He said, "Come on,
get into the truck,
2199
01:45:33,460 --> 01:45:35,210
"I brought you
to the police station. "
2200
01:45:35,210 --> 01:45:36,790
He pushed me in the truck
2201
01:45:36,790 --> 01:45:38,000
on the driver's side.
2202
01:45:38,000 --> 01:45:39,580
I got more
on the right side
2203
01:45:39,580 --> 01:45:41,750
and he jumped onto the truck
and he left.
2204
01:45:41,750 --> 01:45:45,500
At the same time
when he was saved,
2205
01:45:45,500 --> 01:45:47,670
Denny's trucks come in
crossing.
2206
01:45:47,670 --> 01:45:51,170
JONES: TV is on
and we are now watching
2207
01:45:51,170 --> 01:45:53,460
Reginald Denny is attacked
2208
01:45:53,460 --> 01:45:56,540
at the intersection the same
Mr. Choi is there.
2209
01:45:56,540 --> 01:45:58,380
We are now watching it on TV.
2210
01:45:58,380 --> 01:46:01,000
REPORTER: Terrible.
And there is no police presence
below here.
2211
01:46:01,000 --> 01:46:02,880
They won't enter that area.
2212
01:46:03,880 --> 01:46:05,670
This is an attempted murder.
2213
01:46:05,670 --> 01:46:08,790
When we watch that,
first thing
what I'm thinking is,
2214
01:46:12,710 --> 01:46:14,830
"Why am I not there
to help him?"
2215
01:46:18,540 --> 01:46:20,540
If I have
in that corner,
I will do something.
2216
01:46:20,540 --> 01:46:21,830
I can't tell you
what I will do,
2217
01:46:21,830 --> 01:46:24,670
but I will definitely
be intervened.
2218
01:46:24,670 --> 01:46:26,830
No there is a reason
for him to suffer.
2219
01:46:26,830 --> 01:46:29,170
He has no role to play
in all of this.
2220
01:46:29,170 --> 01:46:32,460
He's just an innocent person
driving his truck
an intersection.
2221
01:46:32,460 --> 01:46:34,830
Just like many people
that day.
2222
01:46:34,830 --> 01:46:36,960
I don't think
I like that fact
2223
01:46:36,960 --> 01:46:38,420
people become victims.
2224
01:46:40,080 --> 01:46:42,830
Um, that's no
sit with me.
2225
01:46:42,830 --> 01:46:45,750
And if I'm there and I can do it
something about that,
2226
01:46:46,750 --> 01:46:47,830
I don't know what that is,
2227
01:46:47,830 --> 01:46:49,710
but I will do something
about that.
2228
01:46:50,920 --> 01:46:53,460
MOULIN: Did I see
on television
2229
01:46:53,460 --> 01:46:55,290
Reginald Denny was defeated?
2230
01:46:57,540 --> 01:46:59,290
MAN: Do you understand?
MAN 2: Have all of that.
2231
01:46:59,290 --> 01:47:01,120
Yes I did.
2232
01:47:01,120 --> 01:47:03,620
And that's bad.
2233
01:47:03,620 --> 01:47:04,960
And inside war,
2234
01:47:04,960 --> 01:47:06,330
bad things happen.
2235
01:47:08,120 --> 01:47:10,750
But you have to make it
difficult decisions.
2236
01:47:10,750 --> 01:47:12,670
And the hard
decision I made...
2237
01:47:15,330 --> 01:47:16,670
We can't help it.
2238
01:47:19,500 --> 01:47:21,120
We can't.
2239
01:47:22,670 --> 01:47:24,330
So, you know what?
2240
01:47:24,330 --> 01:47:25,380
Turn off the television.
2241
01:47:26,750 --> 01:47:29,790
It's ugly, terrible,
breaking my heart,
2242
01:47:29,790 --> 01:47:31,830
but there's nothing we can do.
2243
01:47:33,000 --> 01:47:34,290
GREEN: When I
look on TV
2244
01:47:34,290 --> 01:47:37,960
he's driving
a dump below...
2245
01:47:37,960 --> 01:47:41,880
We call it a dump below.
He hauled sand
or some pebbles.
2246
01:47:41,880 --> 01:47:44,120
He stopped at Florence
and Normandie
2247
01:47:44,120 --> 01:47:45,830
and everyone
beat him so badly.
2248
01:47:45,830 --> 01:47:48,420
But the last one
I see is a brick.
2249
01:47:51,670 --> 01:47:54,000
I look behind me,
someone whispers to me.
2250
01:47:54,000 --> 01:47:55,880
"Go there, save him. "
2251
01:47:55,880 --> 01:47:57,830
I said," Did you say anything?
That's funny. "
2252
01:47:57,830 --> 01:47:59,790
I think I'm
crazy or something,
do you know what I'm saying?
2253
01:47:59,790 --> 01:48:01,710
My mother is in the kitchen,
2254
01:48:01,710 --> 01:48:03,750
she said, "Why are you
talk to me? "
I don't see anyone behind me.
2255
01:48:03,750 --> 01:48:05,420
I think I'm dreaming.
2256
01:48:05,420 --> 01:48:08,120
Someone whispered to me
three or four times to wake up.
2257
01:48:08,120 --> 01:48:10,580
So, I wake up and leave,
I said, "Mama,
2258
01:48:10,580 --> 01:48:12,460
" We will have
the group hugging right quickly . "
2259
01:48:12,460 --> 01:48:13,710
He said," Bobby,
where did you go? "
2260
01:48:13,710 --> 01:48:15,920
I said," I'll do it
save that person's life. "
2261
01:48:15,920 --> 01:48:17,420
" Who told you that? "
2262
01:48:17,420 --> 01:48:18,540
I said,
" I think God told me, Mama.
2263
01:48:18,540 --> 01:48:20,670
"God told me three or < br /> four times to save it. "
2264
01:48:22,710 --> 01:48:24,500
I'm on a mission.
2265
01:48:24,500 --> 01:48:26,500
I don't know why
God chose me.
2266
01:48:27,420 --> 01:48:28,670
But he chose me.
2267
01:48:28,670 --> 01:48:31,710
Out of one million people,
he chose me.
2268
01:48:31,710 --> 01:48:34,500
Brother Pete said,
"I will go there
in Florence and Normandie,
2269
01:48:34,500 --> 01:48:36,250
" you just come with me. "
2270
01:48:36,250 --> 01:48:38,620
When we arrived there,
Florence and Normandie,
it's a big old crowd.
2271
01:48:38,620 --> 01:48:42,000
I stepped out again and said,
"God, please, please.
2272
01:48:42,000 --> 01:48:43,500
"What should I do?"
2273
01:48:43,500 --> 01:48:45,330
He said, "Don't worry.
I have an angel.
2274
01:48:45,330 --> 01:48:47,500
" I have four angels
protect you. "
2275
01:48:47,500 --> 01:48:50,670
So, I ran towards the truck,
it was going on
crowd.
2276
01:48:50,670 --> 01:48:52,040
So, I jumped onto the truck.
2277
01:48:52,040 --> 01:48:54,580
Itu tidak bisa dipercaya
dia tetap hidup selama itu.
2278
01:48:54,580 --> 01:48:56,540
I thought he
died at first,
2279
01:48:56,540 --> 01:48:58,580
but he was still there
trying to drive.
2280
01:48:58,580 --> 01:49:00,580
When I got there,
it two women
2281
01:49:00,580 --> 01:49:02,170
and a man named Titus.
2282
01:49:02,170 --> 01:49:03,500
They got there first.
2283
01:49:03,500 --> 01:49:05,210
The three of them didn't know
how to drive a truck.
2284
01:49:05,210 --> 01:49:09,290
So, I told Reggie
to slide because
I am here to save him.
2285
01:49:09,290 --> 01:49:12,290
Titus is on the running board
on the passenger side.
2286
01:49:12,290 --> 01:49:15,380
Someone came
the driver's side tried
stole the truck from him,
2287
01:49:15,380 --> 01:49:16,580
he could drive them away.
2288
01:49:16,580 --> 01:49:19,460
Lei helped Reggie
2289
01:49:19,460 --> 01:49:23,000
and Terri is in the car,
escorting us like
Police,
2290
01:49:23,000 --> 01:49:26,080
because the windshield
the truck is all
beaten, cracked.
2291
01:49:26,080 --> 01:49:31,460
I did about 50, 60 miles
on the road trying
to get to the hospital.
2292
01:49:31,460 --> 01:49:34,500
And I told the nurse
This person needs very bad help.
2293
01:49:34,500 --> 01:49:36,540
They are hesitant
just a moment
2294
01:49:36,540 --> 01:49:37,710
because they are
rather nervous.
2295
01:49:37,710 --> 01:49:39,540
So I grew up
my voice was very loud,
2296
01:49:39,540 --> 01:49:41,460
shouted at them,
said "Come on,
get this person here
2297
01:49:41,460 --> 01:49:42,620
"He is in a bad condition."
2298
01:49:42,620 --> 01:49:45,710
And the doctor returned
10 minutes later,
2299
01:49:45,710 --> 01:49:48,460
and he said, "Do you know what? < br /> This man will live.
2300
01:49:48,460 --> 01:49:50,960
"If this man isn't here
for a moment... A little later,
2301
01:49:50,960 --> 01:49:52,330
" He must have died. "
2302
01:49:52,330 --> 01:49:55,080
When he said that to me,
I said, "God, thank you.
2303
01:49:55,080 --> 01:49:57,120
" You keep this
people here. "
2304
01:49:57,120 --> 01:49:59,620
If the four people
have not yet appeared,
2305
01:49:59,620 --> 01:50:03,500
I'm just going to bleed to death
basically there
at the intersection.
2306
01:50:03,500 --> 01:50:05,040
INTERVIEWER: But did they
almost lose you
in the hospital?
2307
01:50:05,040 --> 01:50:08,540
There are two times
that things become very sensitive.
2308
01:50:08,540 --> 01:50:09,920
What do they call them?
Blue Code, I guess.
2309
01:50:09,920 --> 01:50:12,880
Where they have to
cut my throat
2310
01:50:12,880 --> 01:50:15,420
and my head is swollen.
2311
01:50:15,420 --> 01:50:17,620
So, they got a water channel
coming from my head.
2312
01:50:17,620 --> 01:50:18,620
So, I get fresh blood...
2313
01:50:19,830 --> 01:50:22,620
PHILLIPS: Our chairman is not
2314
01:50:23,830 --> 01:50:27,420
at headquarters.
2315
01:50:27,420 --> 01:50:31,620
Or in a division,
or anywhere near,
2316
01:50:31,620 --> 01:50:33,790
to see what's happening.
2317
01:50:33,790 --> 01:50:37,080
That's a very big failure,
in my judgment.
2318
01:50:37,080 --> 01:50:39,500
You are chairman
and you're not there?
2319
01:50:39,500 --> 01:50:41,420
You're not even in town?
2320
01:50:41,420 --> 01:50:43,620
what the hell is
what are you talking about?
2321
01:50:43,620 --> 01:50:45,500
What are you doing?
2322
01:50:45,500 --> 01:50:46,500
Where have you been?
2323
01:50:52,830 --> 01:50:54,540
And he's not in there.
2324
01:50:56,920 --> 01:50:58,960
I was there.
2325
01:50:58,960 --> 01:51:01,500
I was there.
I did my work.
2326
01:51:01,500 --> 01:51:05,380
Radio that
put out the call like...
2327
01:51:05,380 --> 01:51:08,620
Radio operators
can't speak fast enough.
2328
01:51:08,620 --> 01:51:11,580
(SPEAKING OPERATORS)
2329
01:51:14,330 --> 01:51:16,080
And we are given a command,
2330
01:51:16,080 --> 01:51:19,380
"Not under
any circumstances
2331
01:51:19,380 --> 01:51:21,790
" go handle any calls
in that area
2332
01:51:21,790 --> 01:51:23,080
"Because it's too dangerous."
2333
01:51:23,080 --> 01:51:24,750
And we are like, "Ugh."
2334
01:51:24,750 --> 01:51:28,170
I mean, that goes against every

Edward Song Lee is
another innocent victim.
2504
02:02:48,380 --> 02:02:50,500
He was shot to death
when trying to protect
2505
02:02:50,500 --> 02:02:51,960
the Koreatown environment.
2506
02:02:51,960 --> 02:02:54,710
(SPEAKING KOREA)
2507
02:03:04,710 --> 02:03:07,210
Right now,
it doesn't look real.
2508
02:03:07,210 --> 02:03:10,080
Like, it looks like it's not
like he's really dead.
2509
02:03:10,080 --> 02:03:12,620
It seems like he's somewhere.
2510
02:03:12,620 --> 02:03:14,120
He will come
right back home.
2511
02:03:14,120 --> 02:03:15,880
Yeah, it feels like that
it's not real.
2512
02:03:15,880 --> 02:03:18,830
Like, it's impossible
happened to us.
2513
02:03:18,830 --> 02:03:20,210
Yes.

GATE: This is not the first
riot I have been involved in.
2515
02:03:39,580 --> 02:03:42,250
I am very involved
in the 1965 riots.
2516
02:03:43,330 --> 02:03:46,460
And this one,
To be honest,
2517
02:03:46,460 --> 02:03:47,540
went faster...
2518
02:03:49,710 --> 02:03:52,710
READERS: Death toll
in Los Angeles
has now risen to 18.

BRADLEY: I said, "Go home
and stay there for the night."
2520
02:03:55,170 --> 02:03:56,670
CARRIERS :
They lost their homes now.
2521
02:03:56,670 --> 02:03:58,880
BRADLEY: I know this is a
coercion to you.
2522
02:03:58,880 --> 02:04:03,830
Listen to the Cosby program,
maybe you will hear it
the last request on the show.
2523
02:04:03,830 --> 02:04:06,290

REPORTER: Forty-eight
hours or more, 31 die now
here in Los Angeles.

Family, entire family
it will never happen < this behavior.
2526
02:04:13,330 --> 02:04:16,000
You need to give us some food,
we are hungry, hungry, hungry.
2527
02:04:16,000 --> 02:04:18,040
They will never have it
do this behavior
2528
02:04:18,040 --> 02:04:20,580
if they don't think now
that's fine.
2529
02:04:20,580 --> 02:04:22,710
REPORTER: confirmed
The death toll is now 38,
2530
02:04:22,710 --> 02:04:25,620
exceeding 34 death
in the Watts riots
August...
2531
02:04:25,620 --> 02:04:28,540
I believe in the way Malcolm X.
I don't believe
in turning cheeks.
2532
02:04:28,540 --> 02:04:30,670
We finished turning our cheeks
for too long.
2533
02:04:30,670 --> 02:04:33,710
It's time to take revenge.
They don't understand speaking.
2534
02:04:33,710 --> 02:04:35,540
RAJA:
That's not right, and um...
2535
02:04:35,540 --> 02:04:37,670
That won't happen
change anything.
2536
02:04:37,670 --> 02:04:39,670
We will get our justice.

I thought that we would do it

inside the American continent
country for civil disturbances
2542

because that rarely happens.
2543
02:05:01,620 --> 02:05:04,540
That hasn't been finished
for decades.
2544
02:05:04,540 --> 02:05:07,330
The first thing
occurred to me when I arrived
on the ground
2545
02:05:07,330 --> 02:05:08,960
was that,
"Nobody was responsible. "
2546
02:05:08,960 --> 02:05:11,580
Pete Wilson, governor,
there with a small staff,
2547
02:05:11,580 --> 02:05:13,540
doing everything right
kinds of things.
2548
02:05:13,540 --> 02:05:14,880
They do not have
planning ability,
2549
02:05:14,880 --> 02:05:16,460
they don't
control rule.
2550
02:05:16,460 --> 02:05:18,830
Mayor Bradley
is in his office.
2551
02:05:18,830 --> 02:05:20,290
A great old man,
2552
02:05:20,290 --> 02:05:21,790
but at that time...
2553
02:05:21,790 --> 02:05:22,960
I tried to be nice here.
2554
02:05:22,960 --> 02:05:24,670
Everyone loves him to death,
2555
02:05:24,670 --> 02:05:26,500
but he really
no responsible.
2556
02:05:26,500 --> 02:05:30,540
Los Angeles County Sheriff
Sherman Block, nice guy.
2557
02:05:30,540 --> 02:05:32,380
He doesn't have a plan,
doesn't have planning staff.
2558
02:05:32,380 --> 02:05:33,540
He is not in power.
2559
02:05:33,540 --> 02:05:34,960
There it is
California National Guard.
2560
02:05:34,960 --> 02:05:37,500
They are not responsible.
They flow in.
2561
02:05:37,500 --> 02:05:40,330
Then there is
the police chief,
2562
02:05:41,170 --> 02:05:42,460
Daryl Gates,
2563
02:05:42,460 --> 02:05:44,960
who do I consider
2564
02:05:44,960 --> 02:05:48,500
a little too selfish
for that position.
2565
02:05:48,500 --> 02:05:49,460
The first day we deployed,
2566
02:05:49,460 --> 02:05:51,670
I entered this
conference room
2567
02:05:51,670 --> 02:05:55,380
and here's the table
and here's Gates and Block
sitting there
2568
02:05:55,380 --> 02:05:57,880
and there's a chair
there for me
and I sit down.
2569
02:05:57,880 --> 02:06:00,880
Daryl Gates did one of them,
he said,
2570
02:06:00,880 --> 02:06:02,500
"General."
The first words came out of his mouth.
2571
02:06:02,500 --> 02:06:06,250
"General , we don't want you
and we don't need you. "

REINER: There is a pattern.
2574
02:06:38,290 --> 02:06:40,500
A pattern
bad beatings
2575

tonight
three people, as I said.

02:06:59,120 --> 02:07:02,000
One identified as
Damian Monroe Williams,
2583
02:07:02,000 --> 02:07:03,380
AKA "Football."
2584
02:07:03,380 --> 02:07:06,380
Age 19, from Los Angeles.
2585
02:07:06,380 --> 02:07:09,460

Age 20,
Los Angeles, California.
2589
02:07:17,750 --> 02:07:21,250
They actually have
enlarged images on Kiki,
2590
02:07:21,250 --> 02:07:23,250
enlarged
Damian tattoos.
2591
02:07:23,250 --> 02:07:26,620
Things like that,
from the camera
going up in the sky.

original defendants in
Denny's beating
2595
02:07:35,500 --> 02:07:39,040
has become a symbol of what
some people see racial injustice.
2596
02:07:39,040 --> 02:07:42,380
Many quote high profile
a statue of Damian Williams.
2597
02:07:42,380 --> 02:07:44,960
I really want it
to personally arrest him.
2598

But I know now, even more.

That's a young man

rob Mr. Denny.

The young man spent
two years in prison

get his wallet

to find out who he is
and call
give him help.

Kiki has entered
the military and all
2649
02:10:36,250 --> 02:10:40,420
And for him to be included
his shoes at Reginald Denny
at such a time?
2650
02:10:40,420 --> 02:10:42,250
And to serve our country?

mean something.

he went to Westchester,
he has white friends.

He is not racist.
2656

Now, for years
made it bitter.
2657

He loves skin girls white,
do you know what I'm saying?
2660
02:10:59,380 --> 02:11:01,380
And I told him to this day,
I said,
2661
02:11:01,380 --> 02:11:03,750
"God chose you for a reason.
2662
02:11:03,750 --> 02:11:05,580
"This is your life,

2663

" You have done everything
that America said
we should have done.

"Now, why?
one of them alone
2665
02:11:10,040 --> 02:11:12,250
" Doing something like this?
2666
02:11:12,250 --> 02:11:17,210
"So you have to do it
search for yourself and find out
why you do what you do.
2667
02:11:17,210 --> 02:11:20,830
"And that's the people
need to hear from you."
2668
02:11:20,830 --> 02:11:24,000
You know what I'm say?

HENRY WATSON: There are
war on black men.
Do you understand that?
2671
02:11:30,170 --> 02:11:34,120
Because they only received
two-way black men in America.

or you're a transient.

You understand
what am I saying?

Are there any of them?
You are a threat.

Seeing what
they did to us.
2676
02:11:43,330 --> 02:11:45,540
They killed
young black men.
2677
02:11:45,540 --> 02:11:47,170
They killed threats.
2678
02:11:47,170 --> 02:11:51,080
Because of that, anything
it's not black
2679
02:11:51,080 --> 02:11:53,830
doesn't mean anything
to me at all.
2680
02:11:53,830 --> 02:11:56,120
Of course, we kill ourselves.
Do you know what I'm saying?

It's just that he listens to
to his friends.

the lieutenant
pulled troops
from the 77th Street Division,

where is the intersection,
and don't move them.
