brown there in elizabeth city, north carolina. andrew brown jr. catie beck is on the ground there for us. a former federal prosecutor, and chair of the african-american studies department of princeton and msnbc contributor. catie, i will start with you there on the ground. important to note we just saw the visuals there. this is from an independent autopsy that was commissioned by the family and attorneys for mr. brown. so that's what they were talking about. it would seem to me, catie beck, that this glaring silence from the law enforcement agency that's in charge of the case to a certain extent, that seems to be making all of this a bit worse. >> reporter: yes, craig, absolutely. in terms of outrage, you can certainly feel that growing now over the course of several days. i started reporting the story last thursday when the case was sort of in its beginning stages. now days later with no real release of this body cam footage and really no substantial answers from police about what transpired before that shooting, the only way for the temperature

it has been nearly a week since brown >> andrew brown. >> reporter: each day, seeing peaceful protests and continued calls to publicly release body camera videos from the incident. the pasquotank county attorney filing a motion monday, petitioning for all videos to be released. a court hearing is now set for tomorrow morning. we sat down with andrew's son khalil, the only family member to watch a redacted portion of the body camera video. what has this been like for your family? >> we all need answers. and we just can't get it. it's stressing us out a lot. you know, we haven't been eating, sleeping like we supposed to. it's just eating us up. >> and victor oquendo with us tonight from elizabeth city again this evening. victor, we know the governor of north carolina has called for transparency, the release of those body cam videos and tonight, he and the fbi are now weighing in on the case? >> reporter: david, the fbi has opened a federal civil rights investigation into the shooting. north carolina's governor is calling for a special prosecutor in this case. tonight, for the first time

and john brown tells a story the, there are a couple of moments of epiphany for john brown. one is when he's a young boy, he's 8 or 10 years old, he's praying in ohio with another -- playing in ohio with another child who happens to be black. john brown is vaguely aware of slavery, but he doesn't know what it means on a personal level until some guy that turns out to be the owner, comes around and beats him on the head. john brown, all of a sudden i realized my position was very different from this person's position. and abraham lincoln, he was in his late teens, and he had been hired to float a cargo of flat boats down the mississippi to new orleans. and for the first time in his wife, he witnessed a slave auction. and lincoln remembered that was when he realized there was something really wrong about slavery. he'd been aware of slavery, but he'd never seen the process by which people were sold just like cattle and horses were sold. and so i wonder if for the three women that dorothy writes about, i'll ask dorothy, can you identify moments when they came to the conclusion t

you can hear brown having an argument with his brother, at one point in the conversation brown threatens to kill his brother and brown is also heard asking his brother for a gun. but his brother refuses and seconds later, this is important, brown tells the dispatcher that he does not have a gun and that he is unarmed as he then walks out onto the street. as you hear sirens approaching the dispatcher repeatedly instructs brown to hold his hands up and that's where the audio is about to play. what you're about to hear is actually what brown's phone picks up as that deputy arrives on scene. >> are you holding your hands up? put your hands up. >> show me your hands now, show me your hands. drop the gun. drop the gun now. stop, stop, stop. show me your hands. drop the gun. drop the gun. >> and when you hear that, when the officer repeatedly commands brown to drop the alleged gun here and speaks to that belief that he thought that he was potentially armed, however the virginia state police does confirm from cnn that brown was, in fact, unarmed at the time of the shooting. the brown family atto

andrew brown jr.'s family watched it 20 times before concluding the shooting was what they call criminal. >> dad got executed just by trying to save his own life >> reporter: just as troubling, they say, pasquotank county released only 20 seconds of footage from one officer's body camera. lawyers for the brown family say at least eight other deputies also recorded the events >> why is it that they get to choose what's the pertinent parts of the video to show the family >> reporter: grainy images snapped by a witness show the aftermath. brown's windshield with at least four bullet holes the shooting unfolded early wednesday when deputies served a warrant on brown for allegedly selling illegal drugs. ashley bechtol was catty-corner across the street upstairs looking out her bedroom window as deputies arrived >> he pulled up in that driveway. he lost control. went in that driveway and hit that tree. >> reporter: bechtol is related to the victim through marriage >> and they shot out the back window of his

the certificate calls brown's death a homicide, saying brown was shot by others. this comes as calls for the police body cam footage grow louder. attorneys for the brown family spoke just moments ago at a press conference. >> i was told by the district attorney -- i was told by the district attorney that the family would get to see the raw footage, not the redacted version. these county administrators are walking back the promises they made. show the tape. if you ain't got nothing to hide, show the tape. >> let's go live right now to north carolina and cnn's natasha chen joins us in elizabeth city. explain exactly how we got here and where things stand right now. >> reporter: right, ana, you just mentioned the death certificate that was obtained by our colleagues brian todd and producer devon sayers, and just to repeat, this is very new information compared to the 911 audio we've been listening to for the last few days. again, this death certificate saying that andrew brown jr. died by a penetrating gunshot wound to the dead -- to the head and died within minutes

it's andrew brown jr., forgive me. >> andrew brown, yes. but i tell you, that was -- it really hurts. it is the 20 second clip, that's what it was. the family have been suffering in pain while they waited close to a week for a 20 second clip. that is the sting of injustice and it plagues the hearts of the family. every time their heartbeat it intensifies in pain as they remember their loved one that appears being executed by law enforcement. >> councilman michael brooks, thank you for joining us and i should mention i know the city council has also petitioned for the release of that body cam video. we know there is supposed to be a hearing in the case at least addressing the media petition for the public release of the video tomorrow so we're going to stay on top of all of this. again, my appreciation to councilman michael brooks for joining us there. >>> president biden is set to speak just minutes from now, and we will bring his remarks live as he addresses the covid-19 response and new guidelines released today by the cdc. >>> 2020 censu

brown was shot? did they say, any time, mr. brown foeposed a threat to the police? did you get any further explanation from them today? >> no. no. and even as they gave the explanation, kalil and other counsel saw the video. and there was no justification of why they was shooting. so if they give the explanation, the explanation would not be true because the video is a thousand -- that's the most objective evidence. who cares what they say when you have a video? we just want to see the entire video and put it all in context. >> kalil, you have called for justice for your dad. what does that look like for you and your family, at this point? what do you want to see happen? >> for all this -- i want to see all these killings stop. you know? it's too much going on in this world. and we don't need that. they supposed to protect us. but they doing the harm. you know? it gotta stop somewhere. >> and the ones responsible, anderson, brought to justice. if it was you, i, or kalil, who committed an act and took a person's life, unjustifiably, we should be in jail, right now. s

of andrew brown jr. at any moment in north carolina. but with that, we have a lot going on across the country as well. i want to go to columbus, ohio, where we have more protests under way following the fatal police shooting of 16-year-old ma'khia bryant. i just mentioned her. her death this week came just minutes before a minneapolis jury convicted derek chauvin in the murder of george floyd. nbc's chris pollone is outside the ohio state house in columbus where protests are under way. police quickly releasing body cam footage, as i mentioned, those protesting, though, are saying it shows a blatant need for police tactics to reform. what else have you been hearing on the ground so far? >> reporter: yeah, yasmin, that's right. and this protest just moved on after about two hours here in a steady rain in columbus, ohio. you know, a group of 30 to 50 protesters out for the fifth day in a row since this incident happened. as you mentioned, this, you know, took place tuesday afternoon right before the chauvin

that was only for brown's family. we, however, have gotten footage of police surrounding brown's stopped car. here it is. it's not much, but it's better than nothing. >> i'm right here. >> it's the cops. you can't call the cops on the feds. >> they shot him? >> yeah. >> now, obviously that is -- those are a couple neighbors talking. that is her present-sense impression of what happened. why is that important? literally we are craving context here. you see the officers around the car. what's interesting about this video is they're showing demdem commands. the question is to whom? because brown may have already been dead by one of the many bullets fired at him while the 42-year-old was trying to drive away from police after they served arrest and search warrants. the family and the community deserve to know more five days after the fact. >> we only saw a snippet of the video. this family was disrespected. >> i've never been talked to like i was talked to in there. mr. cox told me, a grown black man, that he was not goin

lawyers for andrew brown jr.'s family say they were shown only a 20-second snippet of police body cam video of the shooting. they're demanding to see more of the footage, including what happened before and after arguing that brown, in their words, was executed. this as the justice department here in washington is now investigating police practices in another u.s. city, louisville, kentucky. the attorney general of the united states announcing the probe over a year after breonna taylor was shot to death during a police raid at her louisville home. also tonight, sources tell cnn that president biden is set to announce new cdc guidance tomorrow on outdoor mask wearing for people who are fully vaccinated against covid-19. lots of news going on today. first, let's go to cnn's brian todd. brian, brown's family did not get the transparency they certainly had hoped for. what's the latest? what's happening there tonight? >> reporter: wolf, some protesters gathering behind us. they just started chanting at some officers wat

a lifelong friend of andrew brown jr. said he fled from the sheriff's deputies in his car before more than a dozen shots were fired at the vehicle, killing him. what more are you learning about the circumstances leading up to this shooting? >> neighbors who have known andrew brown all their life tell us that they heard the first shot early in the morning on wednesday, ran down the street, wasn't very far away, and when they arrived, they saw him pulling away out of his driveway, heading deep into an empty lot next door and deputies -- they weren't certain how many were actually firing but they counted as many as 14 shell casings on the ground in his driveway. his back window was shot out. radio traffic later reported that he was shot in the back. he crashed into a neighbor's tree nearby. pieces of his car and headlights were still in the tree. he was pulled out of his car and was already deceased by neighbors' accounts when he was pulled out, and they attempted to resuscitate him, but he was already passed. >> john, in th

to brown. students demanded for aggressive affirmative action in admissions as well as quote direct payments to descendants and targeted investments in black communities. as student body president jason carroll put it it's time to, quote, put money in black folks pockets, presumably including his own. you might be tempted to dismiss all of this out of hand giving people things because of how they looked really an anti dote to racism? do cash payments to those never enslaved actually atone for slavery? again, fair question. but for just a moment we ask to you open your mind a little bit. thanks to the biden administration, we are already begun cutting reparations checks in this country. black farmers got theirs earlier this month. already happening. now that it is happening, why shouldn't brown university pay for it one was literally built with money from the slave trade. university has only gotten richer since then. brown's endowment now stands at about $5 billion. last year it generated $500 m

the reaction to brown in a number of the deep south and brown in general is to ignore it and resisted in various ways. as randy says brown is criticized as the court not being aggressive enough with the remedy it was requiring. he says jamal greene, you seem to be interested in a dialogue of jurisdictions and courts around things of administrative convenience. not necessarily the strong rights or remedies paying attention to facts. how do you feel about brown part two? i think the words are right. the right response in a case like brown was to pay attention to the administrative difficulty of school integration that if a jurisdiction is acting in good faith and it takes two or three or four years to fully integrate, that's fine. but that's not what happened. they were not acting in good faith. this goes back to brown itself. i'm not against rights are strong rights. but strong rights should be attached to governments you have to make a judgment if they are in good faith are pathologically that cannot be trusted. much more skeptical of strong rights where the court itself even believes

brown? >> well, officials initially, andry a said that isiah brown had non-life-threatening injuries and now his family and their attorney says that's false. they say he's currently hooked up to a breathing machine in the hospital. they describe his situation as touch and go. he's had multiple surgeries in which two out of ten bullets that they say were shot into isiah brown were removed leaving another eight bullets still in his body. this all apparently started around 2:30 in the morning when a sheriff's deputy gave, saya isaiah brown a ride home when his car had broken down. he was called to an altercation with his brother and then threatened to kill his brother before he then tells the 911 dispatcher that he, in fact, did not have a gun there. he then, after the deputies arrived, was ultimately shot by the sheriff's deputy, the same deputy who had driven him home. police releasing this recording of those moments, we should warn you, it's disturbing to watch. >> show me your hands now! sh

rushing to kill andrew brown. this has become a constant sight across america. the evolution of policing that's now terrorizing communities of color, close quote. is that what you see in this video? >> i see a big deployment there. we just don't have enough information. is there some reason to believe that this guy requires this kind of aggression just to do a search warrant or even an arrest warrant? they are keeping us in the dark. i think they are making it very, very bad on themselves. it's the coverup that's become the problem. they keep pointing out that they have to have a court order. maybe the law should be changed to the pruresumption that this stuff is available. i think the governor would support this. get the stuff out there so people aren't guessing. what people are guessing about at this point could be a lot worse than what's actually shown. part of what you're seeing across the country is a fatigue in the black community with the overpolicing, the militarized policing, the excessive policing and th

brown's vehicle on the right passenger side, the back rear quarter panel. ultimately, the kill shot was in the back of the head. if it's in the back of his head, he's obviously trying to get away. he's not a danger to officers. there's no indication that he was trying to hit anybody, run anybody over. in fact, what the video revealed based on the people in the room, his son, that he was even being shot at -- he was still trying to avoid injuring the officer or any threat to the officers. they were the only threat that day. so a person being shot at, he's still concerned about their safety. honestly, they weren't concerned about his safety nor his life. >> has the family gotten any information from the police about what they say happened or why? >> no. no. the information that was reviewed, the snippet, was the only bit of information we received. let me be very clear, don. that snippet is horrific. it shows mr. brown's hands on the steering wheel. he's getting shot while his hands are on the steering wheel. mr. brown tried to leave, so he's not fleeing. let

brown getting shot while his hands was on the steering wheel. mr. brown trying to leave. so he's not fleeing. let me be very clear. he's not trying to resist arrest. he's not fleeing. this is a man getting shot at. he has a right just as anybody else, a right to life. and he's trying to exercise that right by saving his life while others are trying to execute him. and even when he's going to get away -- he's going to get away, don, he's going to save himself, boom. shoot him in the back of the head. kill him. his vehicle strike a tree and he's gone. seven children fatherless, brother lost, son lost, grandson. absolutely hole in this community. elizabeth city, pasquotank county, this is a tragedy on both ends. tragedy that mr. brown lost his life prematurely. tragedy that this county government, the county commissioners, the district attorney, the county attorneys, no accountability. don, they redacted the officer's face. they redacted the officers' guns. these people are paid by the taxpayers. the guns are paid by the taxpayers. the taxpayers have a right to see the publi

brown family attorneys, andrew brown family attorneys say they were only allowed to see 20 seconds of the body camera video. obviously there's much more than that that's there. early this morning they were told the footage would be redacted. can you understand any scenario why the family would only be shown 20 seconds from minutes and minutes of footage? >> no, and i would say that is unacceptable. you know, at this point the video will be seen by america and be seen by the attorneys and the families at some point so when you know it's going to be seen, why not show it? if there's nothing there to hide or nothing there that you see inappropriate, you should show that, and so i think we see it across the country. police departments are showing the videos as soon as we can, and this should be shown here. >> the attorneys say that the brown family, they were initially told only two family members would be allowed to see the video and that no legal counsel would be allowed to be present. what do you make of all of this? >> once again unacceptable. we have a right in this country to legal

well, this all started when the deputy gave isaiah brown a ride home after brown's car broke down at a gas station, 2:30 early wednesday morning. the deputy drove away from brown's house after he dropped him off. just moments later, brown called 911, reporting a dispute with his brother, and it appears you can hear him ask his brother for a gun on the call. >> all right, give me the gun. >> no. >> reporter: brown then goes on to tell the 911 dispatcher that he is going to kill his brother. >> i'm about to kill my brother. >> don't kill your brother. >> all right. >> why would you say something like that? >> somebody -- somebody needs to come here real quick. >> reporter: isaiah brown then tells the 911 operator that he doesn't have a gun on him. the same deputy responded to the 911 call and returned, shooting brown as he stood in the road while talking on the phone with the 911 dispatcher. his family spoke first to news 4 on thursday, asking why the deputy opened fire. >> we're just still trying to figure out where he felt the threat at to feel the need to shoot. >> reporter: the she

that was only for brown's family. we, however, have gotten footage citizen footage that shows officers crowded around of police surrounding brown's stopped car. here it is. it's not much, but it's better than nothing. >> i'm right here. >> it's the cops. you can't call the cops on the feds. >> they shot him? >> yeah. >> now, obviously that is -- those are a couple neighbors talking. that is her present-sense impression of what happened. why is that important? literally we are craving context here. you see the officers around the car. what's interesting about this video is they're showing commands. the question is to whom? because brown may have already been dead by one of the many bullets fired at him while the 42-year-old was trying to drive away from police after they served arrest and search warrants. the family and the community deserve to know more five days after the fact. >> we only saw a snippet of the video. this family was disrespected. >> i've never been talked to like i was talked to in there. mr. cox told

y unlike you, brown is not paying taxes on that, brown university brown university is effectively a tax-exempt hedge fund with a veneer of dance so you won't notice. the whole thing is a scam and there's no reason it should continue. brown university ought to be forced to send $4 billion of its endowment to black lives matter and send the 50 billion to al sharpton who's been waiting for a long time for a payoff likes that. a 5 billion is a lot of money but it's hardly equal to the cost of slavery, it's just the start. next, brown should be required to open its dorms to the more than 1,000 rhode islanders were homeless on any given night, they are sleeping on cardboard mats on the sidewalk is a small group of rich kids get the entire leafy brown campus to themselves. call that what you will but it's not equity. time to decolonize it. let's not stop there, we can get even more diverse. lagos, nigeria, has a population of almost 50 million people, it's growing every day it's one of the most crowded places on the planet. most of its residents are very poor and virtually all of them are black. why

joining us now, brown family attorney mr. wayne kendall. we showed the newly released video about a minute long. you have seen it, what is your reaction? >> john, first of all, thank you for having me. we discovered that video a couple of days ago. we discovered the cameras, rather, a couple days ago and were able to learn that those cameras are operated by elizabeth city. we were this morning provided with a copy of those videos from those cameras and we provided them to cnn and what we learned is that there was a squad of pasquotank sheriff's deputies, approximately seven persons fully dressed in tactical gear. they rolled up on mr. brown's home and we were able to track the time from boots on the ground to shots fired as being no more than four seconds. there was some yelling, some screaming about put your hands up, put your hands up and right after that, shots were fired. four seconds at most. that indicates to us what we've always thought was that this was in fact, more or less, extra judicial killing, an execution, if you will. mr. br

brown's vehicle. there is a lot of missing footage and information out there. >> so you have no idea when the fatal shot or shots were fired at one point in the video or in the exchange? >> we could not tell. >> so, the sheriff says the entire incident was 30 seconds or less, right? and body cameras were shaky and hard to dicipher. >> we could put together what was happening. they only provided us one body camera. we were not proved by the family. >> i want you to take a look at this. i don't know if you have seen it. how important will all of these videos be in this investigation? >> they're extremely important because the more information we have, the more we can see what happened because we were not there. if we can get access to that, we can start putting the pieces together. >> i was watching ben on with chris. he said that they fuzzed out the off officers' faces? was there part of the video that were fuzzed? >> yes, their faces were fuzzed z and some of the rifles they had fuzzed out and at time

it's police training in black and brown communities. it's the police training as it relates to their interactions with black and brown people. if police operated according to this excellent training which they get the same way in black and brown communities as they execute and operate in the white communities, we wouldn't be having this conversation. is there a need for additional training? absolutely. all professionals need additional enhanced training in order to assist in the evolution of their profession. but the problem that we have right now with these shootings of unarmed black and brown individuals, with the killing of unarmed black and brown individuals is not solely a training issue. >> understood. >> we mentioned that you are a retired nypd detective. specifically, you worked for a period of your career in the narcotics division. i bring that out because these police were serving a warrant and trying to conduct a search on andrew brown jr.'s property over drugs. it's jermaine as we talk about the war on drugs and how it is po

brown's vehicle. so, there is a lot of missing footage and information out there. >> so, you have no idea when the fatal shot or shots were fired? at one point -- at what point in the video, correct? or the exchange or the altercation. >> yeah. we think so. >> okay. so, the sheriff says the entire incident was 30 seconds or less, right? and body cameras were shaky, and hard to decipher. what's your response to that, attorney lassiter? >> even if a body camera's shaky, if we had all of the body cameras, we could put together more of information about what actually happened. if they know that the body cameras were shaky, they only provided us one shaky body camera, when there were multiple available. >> uh-huh. cnn obtained a video of the immediate aftermath of the flis shooting from the neighborhood. i want you to take a look at this, and i don't know if you have seen it. but how important were all of these videos be in this investigation? >> they're extremely important, because the more information we

andrew brown, isaiah brown. >> yeah, brian. this is yet another rinse and repeat cycle of police using deadly force against black and brown people. what we saw as we found more information about the body cam footage of both these incidences is that none of these individuals were a direct force to police, yet the use deadly force. this is another reminder that things need to change systemically within policing in this country, because i am tired of seeing these footage is. i'm tired of seeing black bodies murdered at the hands of police. i know the rest of the community and this country is as well. so, that's why it is time to pass the george floyd bail into congress. that's why it's time to reimagine policing, and stop killing black and brown people. the words, sick and tired of being sick and tired come to mind. once, again juanita, -- can thank you both enough for taking our questions. coming up, it was a declaration many saw on as tickets overdue. a grammy winning artist from long and hard to have the massacre of 1 million a

her word, not mine, in terms of the way andrew brown jr. was complying with the officers based on that. to your point what do you think the police and county attorney would want to have that information. we are getting this account from lawyers of the family, and what they're describing is unfortunately a grim picture as you saw, saying he was complying, trying to evade them, not hurt them. wouldn't police and county officials say here's the case and argument and full video to see, what they've done by releasing the 20 second snippet is allow for one version of the story to come out now. >> certainly. that's a great question. if i was leading the department, i certainly would want to have some transparency, to have some sunshine. if the argument is that this was a legitimate or justifiable shooting, certainly you want to provide evidence of that. you want to provide that exculpatory evidence for offices. clearly there's something amiss. and if it isn't the department there are making tragic steps in order to reassure the community. what i t

because how -- how do you not make a movie about john brown? i mean, he swings broad swords at people. he invades federal -- well, now as i think about this, i'm going to get in trouble saying he invades federal arsenals. don't invade federal anythings. that's not good. you'll get in big trouble. different context than "harper's ferry". i'll stop there before i get in trouble. >> a couple of people are asking about a movie you haven't mentioned. "guards and generals". a movie that's obviously not about slavery in any way, shape, or form, or doesn't purport to be. what do you make of films like that that continue to sort of perpetuate traditional views of enslaved people as absent from the story or loyal to their slave owners? >> the civil war historian in me will watch "gettysburg" when it's on. "gods and generals" is another story. i'm assuming i could say this on c-span3. "gods and generals" is a horrible movie all the way around. and then when you throw in the depictions of slavery, it's really bad. there's the one scene in particular that g
