. hello, and welcome to all of you watching here in the united states, canada and around the world, i'm kim brunhuber. ahead on "cnn newsroom." >> tyre nichols. >> tyre nichols. >> shock, outrage and protests across the u.s. after surveillance video shows how memphis police officers brutally beat a 29-year-old man who died from his injuries. and another video we're just seeing. the moment when the husband of former house speaker nancy pelosi is attacked by a home intruder. and there's been another shooting in jerusalem following a deadly attack at a synagogue. we'll go live for the latest. >> announcer: live from cnn center, this is "cnn newsroom"

with kim brunhuber. we're seeing a lot of anger across the united states this morning and demands for police reform, but all of it has been peaceful. the american cities were on edge that they might not be. this after the city of memphis released shocking police videos of the january 7th attack. in memphis, for example, protestors marched on to a major interstate bridge across the mississippi river bringing traffic to a standstill. no arrests. tyre nichols died three days after the violent encounter. he was just 29 years old. his funeral has been set for next wednesday. all five officers have been fired and on thursday they were charged with second degree murder, kidnapping and other offenses. arraignments are set for next month. we want to play some of the newly released videos. they are difficult and disturbing to watch and there's a lot of foul language. now we don't scenic cools being

pulled over for alleged reckless driving but the first clip is from an officer arriving at the scene and from there the situation escalates rapidly. have a look. >> [ bleep ]. [ bleep ]. shut the [ bleep ] up. >> i didn't do anything. >> [ bleep ]. >> hey, i didn't -- >> turn your around. >> all right. all right. all right. i'm on the ground. >> lay down! lay down! >> [ bleep ]. >> i'm going to tase you. now get on the ground. now, i'll tase you. >> all right. okay. okay. >> [ bleep ]. >> you guys are really doing a lot right now. >> i'm just trying to -- >> lay down. >> nichols managed to run away but was caught nearby a short time later. in this clip nichols cries out for his mother while he's beaten. again, it is very disturbing. >> just [ bleep ].

>> hey, give me your hands. >> you want to get sprayed again? >> hey, hey. >> mama. >> give me your hands. >> mom. mom. >> police surveillance camera on the light powell captured the clearest images of the officers striking nichols. the video appears to show nichols was hit, kicked, and punched at least nine times in less than four minutes. no one appeared to render aid. the ambulance would not arrive for more than 20 minutes. earlier an attorney representing nichols family spoke to cnn about how the family's feeling now that the video's been made public. >> we knew that this accountability and transparency of this video was so important and that they are very grateful for. of course they lost a son. they lost, you know, somebody

that they love very much, but they are grateful that the video came out so now the whole world knows what happened, that he was defenseless, that he was helpless, that we did not exaggerate or over estimate anything that was in that video whatsoever. >> two sheriff's deputies are on leave and under investigation in the wake of tyre nichols death. the sheriff of shelby county says he made the decision after watching video of the deputies at the scene. cnn's shimon prokupez has more. >> reporter: continued fallout here from this incident, from this horrific beating. after the video was made public, the sheriff here in shelby county put out a statement saying that he learned that two of his deputies were on scene that night and as a result of that, because of this video becoming public, he's placed those deputies on leave. so it's two sheriff's deputies that are now on leave and of course, you know, we're learning more tonight about this s.c.o.r.p.i.o.n. unit, the team

they were part of. the family calling for them to be disbanded while the mayor and the police department hearsay that that unit for right now is not operating in this city. they have sort of suspended their operations while they continue their investigation, but they're not outright going to say at this point that they're going to disband this unit. they're blaming the problems on these officers and not on the unit. and the other thing throughout all of this, of course, in watching this video are the emts, the medics that were on scene and how long it took for them to offer tyre nichols any kind of help. for minutes and minutes he laid there bleeding after being brutally beaten. the questions, of course, about those emts and the other officers who were on scene and the continued investigation where it appears there's just so much more to come. >> a former police officer in richmond, virginia and the

officer of the book "police brutality matters," and he joins us from atlanta. thank you for being here with us. these difficult circumstances. before the video was released you were preparing for the worst. was it as bad as you feared? >> it was actually worse. this is sad. you know, before i became a police officer i was a correction officer and we used to watch film on uprises in the prison where you have gang members getting ahold of another gang member and literally just beat them to death, and this was just sad because you're seeing law enforcement officers, coming out on the job, serve a community, provide protection and they look like gang members. this was sad. it was so sad i have grown children i didn't even want to watch the tape. >> yeah. i totally understand that. le i mean, it's so hard for all of us to watch. you know, too often, you know, you likened it to sort of gang

members beating people. often its chases seem to end this way with the pumped up officers punishing the guy who ran. walk us through why that is. >> well, historically being a police officer, especially with an anti-crime unit -- i wasn't involved in an anti-crime unit, i was a patrol officer, went to an anti-crime unit. that's an aggressive unit. it should be. we're targeting drugs and guns. for a long time in policing i was told when i first got out my first foot pursuit after prehengs, assisting officers started punching on the individual. i was so amazed. i was shocked. i didn't understand what was going on. so i was like, what's going on? he's cuffed. he said, well, you've got to teach them a lesson. they can't run from the police.

and it was just amazing because we wasn't taught that in the academy. i was a new officer trying to understand coming from a low income community, coming from a community that studied aggressive policing now we was taught something. you was told you've got to tune them up so next time they won't run. i could not understand that. historically that tune up's been going on in the police department for a very long time. >> does that explain why, you know, you look at this, some of the officers who weren't necessarily doing the beating, i mean, they were watching, not doing anything to stop it, not doing anything to help him afterwards. i mean, this has nothing to do with training. how do you teach a sense of decency and humanity? >> yeah. that's not taught. that accountability has to happen. i was watching the show earlier and i heard someone say, it's not the unit, it's the guys in the unit. 100% right.

not everybody -- not every officer follows this code or this conduct. you know, i work with a lot of good officers but you have officers out here who believe in tuning people up. the department fails to hold them accountable. you know, it's sad that it takes this to spread light on tune ups and i'm hoping for all of us that we, you know, start making a change when we come down to how we hold officers accountable. >> yeah. i'm wondering how we make that change. i mean, a lot of the problem seems to be this concept of qualified immunity. the legal shield that protects officers from being sued in instances like this. >> yeah. that's one -- a few elements that need working coming from the community not working inside. that's one of many adjustments that law enforcement needs. they need to start investigating themselves. i've worked with guys who are

internal. it's a relationship there. i worked alongside when i'm working cases with the local d.a. that needs to be changed. it should be an outside agency, special task force that comes in and investigates police misconduct. they have too many safeguards to protect officers. you talk to officers day in and day out. good officers don't mind accountability, they really don't, but when you have to work alongside officers who perform using excessive force and you see that the department still keeps them and these are the same guys that you might have to rely on to come and save your life, there's a problem. that's a huge problem. >> yeah. we can only hope that this does lead to change but, of course, we've heard this all before. we'll have to stay on this. really appreciate your expertise, joe. thanks so much for speaking with us. >> thanks for having me. our don lemon spoke to tyre nichols mother who you can hear him screaming out for her in that harrowing video.

here's what she said about the injuries her son suffered. >> they had beat him to a pulp. he had bruises all over him. his head was swollen like a watermelon. his neck was busting because of the swelling. they broke his neck. my son's nose looked like an s. they actually just beat the crap out of him, and so when i saw that, i knew my son was gone then. even if he did live, he would have been a vegetable. >> during a phone call with tyre nichols family, president joe biden said he was outraged by the footage. he also called it a painful reminder of the fear and trauma people of color experience every day in america. here's biden speaking with reporters right after that call. >> i was really pleased that she

called for no -- peaceful protests, no violence, no movement at all. and so i -- you know, i spoke with her about, i don't know, about 10, 15 minutes. >> about the violence and the -- >> well, i am. i'm obviously very concerned about it, but i think she has made a very strong plea. >> protesters filled the streets of memphis shortly after the police video was released and marched on an interstate bridge blocking all lanes of traffic and chanting slogans against police violence. cnn's sara sidner was there. >> reporter: we're seeing an absolute standstill. that is behind me. the i-55 bridge southbound and northbound. northbound towards st. louis. southbound towards jackson, mississippi, there is a huge

section of i-55, the bridge included, that has just been stopped for quite some time. i want to give you a sense of what it looks like and where i am. this is exit 12b and apropos of what's been happening, the national civil rights museum is off of that exit. as you know, this was the place where martin luther king jr. was assassinated here in memphis, but what you are seeing is what protesters here call resistance. they have been peaceful with their resistance. what we are seeing is people who have on both sides of i-55 just stopped traffic. they have stopped traffic. they are holding signs, justice for tyre. they are holding signs that police who murder must be put in prison. they must face justice and, you know, the crowd is here. there are emotions that are high but they've been nothing less than peaceful. they have just stopped traffic flow. and part of that is because they

want people to see that disruption is part of the way they are going to protest because they are feeling pain and they want people to understand how serious they are about all of what they saw on that videotape. you're hearing them chant something we have heard across the country from michael brown to george floyd to freddy gray, whose streets? our streets. that is what they're chanting because they feel like these are their streets. they are taxpayers, too, and there is no reason why these five officers should have been involved in taking the life of a resident here in memphis. there is lots to unpack in the police videos released by the city. cnn's legal analysts weighed in on what they saw in the videos and the charges facing the

former officers. >> what i see here is no interpersonal communication at all. i see no immediacy of threat that was posed to the officers such that they would respond. i see no proportionality with respect to the force and the hitting, punching, kicking, using everything that they used. you have a duty to act, to intervene and that did not happen and that is problematic, that is troubling, that is criminal. what is being charged here is a second degree murder charge which requires officers to show beyond a reasonable doubt as to each of those individuals individually, a knowing killing. taking action under the impression they should have known that it was likely to result in death. there are other lesser charges here, which could be the ultimate outcome, but i think all things considered, i think the prosecutors charged this case appropriately. still ahead this hour, jerusalem is rattled by a pair of shooting attacks just hours apart. israeli authorities are responding to the violence.

we're seeing live pictures here from jerusalem. the response from israeli officials after two people were apparently wounded in a shooting attack saturday. that happened hours after seven people were killed and three wounded near a synagogue in what israeli police called one of the worst terror attacks in years. this all comes after israel launched strikes on gaza and after israeli forces killed nine palestinians in the west bank city of geneva. journalist elliott gotkine is in jerusalem for us. more violence today. take us through what happened. >> reporter: kim, yeah,s this is, what, the second shooting attack in 14 hours in jerusalem. the latest shooting in which two men, a father and a son, the son aged 22, the father in the late 40s, were shot by apparently a 13-year-old boy according to police. this happened in the city of david which is near the entrance to the old city of jerusalem.

from what we know, this happened at 10:42 a.m. about an hour and a half ago local time. it happened in the city of david. police have flooded into the area and the police commissioner has called for a special unit to boost security there. i can also tell you that we've seen video on social media which shows the alleged perpetrator who doesn't appear to be gravely injured. he was being put into an ambulance to be treated for his wounds. he was shot and in the words of the police neutralized or incapacitated by two passer's by who held licensed firearms. in the wake of that shooting last night which killed seven and injured three, three of whom are still in hospital, this is a 60-year-old woman, 24-year-old man and a 15-year-old boy, this is really just escalating tensions obviously further here which were already running sky

high given the confrontations that we've seen between israeli security forces and palestinian forces of late. kim. >> elliott, back to friday's shooting. the white house has responded. take us through what they said. >> sure. so we heard from the state department expressing its outrage at what is described as a horrific attack, and then there was a telephone call between president biden and prime minister benjamin netanyahu and the readout from that call says that the president made clear that this was an attack against the civilized world. the president stressed the ironclad u.s. commitment to israel's security and agreed that his team would remain in constant touch with their israeli counterparts and at the same time the u.s. is urging a deescalation of the current situation. there doesn't seem much likelihood of that happening. all of this is going on just a couple of days before u.s.

secretary of state antony blinken is due in town as part of a regional visit. kim? >> all right. thanks so much, elliott gotkine. appreciate it. the. we're getting reports of a deadly russian strike in eastern ukraine. a short time ago officials said three civilians were killed in a town about 27 kilometers or 17 miles southwest of bakhmut. two others were wounded in that strike in a residential area with high rise buildings. it's happening as russia is making a new effort to break through ukrainian defenses in the east and as poland is pledging 60 more tanks including the pt-91 tanks on top of other tanks that poland and other western allies have promised. clare sebastian is keeping an eye on those and others in ukraine. clare, let's start with the situation there in the east. what's the latest? >> reporter: yeah, kim, as you say, we're hearing more and more reports of civilian casualties.

the latest report from a town that is just 25, 27 kilometers west of bakhmut. three civilians killed, at least two wounded. local ukrainian governor saying a russian missile hit at least four residential buildings, garage,s that kind of thing. president zelenskyy describing the situation on the ground as acute. take a listen. >> translator: the situation on the front line near bakhmut and vul recall vuhledar.

>> along with that intense assault we saw on thursday, this could be interpreted as a russian response to those promises by the western allies of those tanks. it reinforces donbas is russia's strategic goal taking over those entire regions. we're seeing a strategy they continue to bombard bakhmut, a bigger town. they are trying to move in and take smaller towns as well. we're seeing efforts tore surround bakhmut and around vuhledar and shelling in that region. british airline flyby has canceled all strikes and trading on the stock market. they announced the move saturday and warned travelers flyby tickets not to go to airports. a statement said it's been

placed into administration and flights won't be rescheduled. flybe flew to amsterdam and across the u.k. we'll take a short break for viewers across north america. for international viewers, quest's "world of wonder" is next.

i'm kim brunhuber. this is "cnn newsroom." i want to get back to our top story. police videos have now been made public of memphis officers fatally beating tyre nichols following a traffic stop on january 7th. nichols died of his injuries three days later and the fired officers now face second degree murder charges. the videos of that incident are graphic and difficult to watch. you don't scenic cools being pulled over allegedly for reckless driving. the first clip is from an officer arriving at the scene. nichols is yanked from the car and forced to the pavement. it's unclear why officers seem so agitated at this point. the situation escalates rapidly. >> give me your hands. >> you want to get sprayed again? >> mom! mom! mom! mom!

mom! >> a short time later at a nearby location close to his home nichols is on the ground. you heard him there calling out for his mother as he was beat. nichols is slumped. no one seems to care. no one appears to render aid for more than 20 minutes before an ambulance finally arrived. protests broke out across the u.s. after authorities released that video. from coast to coast people have marched to condemn police violence and demand justice for tyre nichols. most of the protests were peaceful including this one in new york. a few arrests were reported along with minor clashes with police. at this point we don't know the specific cause of death of tyre nichols, but a medical expert tells cnn he probably died of internal injuries caused by blunt force trauma. cnn's chief medical correspondent dr. sanjay gupta tells us more about the possible

injuries nichols might have suffered. >> reporter: it is horrific to watch as a trauma neurosurgeon myself. you often see patients brought into the hospital but you don't see that sort of just horrific beating that he took over those several minutes. when you look at the sort of thing, there's obviously so many different injuries that he could have sustained at the time. i think one of the areas that people probably paid a lot of attention to is all these blows he took to his head and to his face. he was restrained at one point taking fists to the face and he was being kicked in the face when he was on the ground. what can happen sometimes is that the brain is the one organ in the body that is starting to swell, it really has no place to go because it's encased by the skull. every other organ in the body can swell a little bit more easily. brain swelling can start to take place and one can start to lapse in and out of consciousness as seemed to be happening with mr.

nichols. i watched the videos alongside medical examiners from around the country, and that was the area they really pointed to, were these blows to the head. it's also worth noting that he's a pretty skinny guy, we understand, and there were kicks to the body, to the torso, to the chest as well and any of those organs may have actually sustained damage and started bleeding as well. could have been suffering from internal bleeding at the time that all of this was happening. that brings us to the next point, which i think is critically important. when you look at sort of the time line of what was happening there, it was around 8:33 or 8:34 when you see this last kick that he sustained and then he is handcuffed and dragged over to the car, and then it's eight minutes later before we see ems even a riff, but it's not until around 9:02, so 20 minutes after that, 21 minutes after that, almost half an hour total befor.

you have a critically ill man lying on the sidewalk, sustained all of these injuries, hard to say the extent of injuries or how serious they are. obviously they are serious but what is the most serious is difficult to ascertain and it's a full half an hour before he's really assessed. you hear at various times that it's going to take a while for the ambulance to get there and that's obviously very problematic. he needed to be in a hospital. whether or not it would have made a difference ultimately, that's hard to say. and we'll get more information probably over the coming few days as to exactly what caused his death. we don't have a firm cause of death yet from the county medical examiner, but watching that video, looking at that time line you can really get a sense of what happened to him and what happened to him in the days that fol followed. >> all right. with us now to discuss this from new york is a former lieutenant with the nypd. thanks so much for being here with us. just want to start with your

reaction now that you've seen the video. >> well, the video is problematic on a multitude of different levels. one of the things that we look to is leadership in a point of crisis in policing. there never appeared to be a front line supervisor that took control over the situation and gave specific instructions to the officers on the scene. secondly, no officers intervened. when you clearly recognize that excessive force was apparent, someone should have stepped in and said stop or physically removed the officers. so the component of a failure to supervise and a failure to intervene was a problematic component in this combustible situation relating to the deceased in this particular matter. i think that oftentimes in policing heads can run high, and that's understandable, but at the same token, you need to slow

down and move forward with the necessary provisions as it relates to the policies in connection with how you introduce a use of force against an individual in a car stop. when we look at this video, it's clear that the subject in this case is not posing a propensity to aggressively assault the officers. he's merely saying at many points, look, okay. okay. stop, but he's not assaulting the officers. so it goes back to the criminal trial and that's where you see this manifest in the retribution against the officers moving forward. >> the question so many people have asked me and are just asking is with so much spotlight on police behavior in recent years, i mean, how does this type of thing happen? wouldn't the officers know they wouldn't be able to get away without at least a serious inquiry into their actions? >> the average person is photographed and videotaped 100

to 200 times a day. in tennessee it's no different. here we had a pole camera that captured what occurred on the ground level. in addition to that, we had officers that wore body cameras so you would think it would be blatantly obvious that what you do will be captured, however, officers in this case i believe were impervious to the fact that there was oversight and it was just them doing what they felt was appropriate at that time, which is highly excessive and it begs the question of, who was setting the tone in that police department? when you have a supervisor or police manager that sets forth a specific tone, then people will follow through to that. however, when you have a lassez-faire attitude by management, that's when officers believe they can act autonomously. what we see in this video is a result of a failure to supervise. >> how much of that do you think results from the fact that

they -- some of these officers were in these specialized proactive police units, saturation police units? in this case it was the s.c.o.r.p.i.o.n. unit. the nichols family is calling for the federal government to step in, make changes. they're calling for them to be abolished. the police say the problem isn't the unit, it's those specific officers. le what do you make of this? >> i think it bifurcates to two points. the first component, when we look at the forward facing driven arrest-related unit such as the s.c.o.r.p.i.o.n. unit, you have the high intensity units in all police departments. i think they're a necessity entity in policing because if you look at the quantitative statistics, this unit in particular was able to gain precipitous drops in crime, but at the same token, it needs to be done in a quintessential manner. i think the oversight is what

was lacking and just because you are effectively gaining results, that doesn't mean that you as an officer or as a unit have a right to violate other civil rights. so i think it's necessary for you to have these enforcement-driven units but at the same token you need to have the oversight to ensure that things are done the right way. so removing the unit, i mean, that may be something that may call the question, but at the same token you're still going to have to have an enforcement-based unit to protect that community. the problem is, there was a lack of oversight. >> all right. well, we'll have to leave it there. really appreciate your insights. darrin porcher, thank you. >> thanks for having me. still more to come on cnn including disturbing newly released recordings on the attack on the husband of former u.s. house speaker nancy pelosi. stay with us.

former u.s. vice president mike pence is taking responsibility for classified documents being found at his home. they were discovered when pence decided to review his own personal records after it was revealed that president biden also had unsecured documents. pence spoke about it friday in miami. here he is. the. >> let me be clear, those classified documents should not have been at my personal residence. mistakes were made, and i take full responsibility. >> this is now the third high profile discovery of classified material after hundreds of documents were found at former president donald trump's home in florida last summer. former u.s. house speaker nancy pelosi says she has no plans to watch footage of the attack on her husband. the comments came after california authorities released recordings made during the assault on paul pelosi. the video and audio reveal a

brutal attack. we have to warn you, some of those images are disturbing. veronica miracle has the story. >> drop the hammer. >> no. >> hey, hey, hey. >> what is going on right now. >> whoa. >> [ bleep ]. >> reporter: body camera video shows police struggling with paul pelosi's assailant after witnessing the assault. >> give me your [ bleep ] hands. give me your [ bleep ] hands. >> reporter: police responding to the pelosi home on october 28th after he called 911 reporting an attacker had broken into his san francisco home. >> there's a gentleman here waiting for my wife to come back, nancy pelosi. he's just waiting for her to come back. she's not going to be here for days so i guess we'll have to wait. >> reporter: the 82-year-old husband of then house speaker nancy pelosi is trying to signal he needs help. >> is the capitol police around? >> no, this is san francisco -- >> they're usually here at the house protecting my wife.

he did tell me to put the phone down and do what he said. >> reporter: then before he hangs up the phone the intruder interrupts. >> i'm a friend of theirs. >> reporter: the intruder has been charged with assault and attempted homicide a among other charges and has pleaded guilty on all accounts. after his arrest he told police he was out to get then house speaker and, quote, other targets and repeated baseless conspiracy theories about pelosi and other democrats spying on the trump campaign. >> it's just like an endless [ bleep ]. like the whole [ bleep ] four years until they were finally able to steal the election. >> he said he woke paul pelosi and was looking for his wife. >> i was going to hold her hostage and i was going to talk to her and tell her what i do. if she lied, i was going to break her kneecaps. >> reporter: depap had posted conspiracy theories at the u.s.

capitol on facebook. >> when i left my house i went to go find nancy. >> reporter: he spoke to pelosi about the attack one week ago. >> how's your husband paul doing? >> he's doing okay. it's going to take a little while for him to be back to normal. i feel very sad about it because the person was searching for me and my dear husband, who's not even that political, actually, paid the price. >> reporter: paul pelosi underwent surgery after the attack for a skull fracture and serious injuries to his right arm and hands and he has been seen wearing a hat at events with his wife in recent months. she said she would not watch the video showing the attack. >> i have absolutely no intention of seeing the deadly assault on my husband's life. >> reporter: the audio and video was made public because a group of news organizations, including cnn, pushed for its release citing transparency reasons. depap's lawyers did not want that to happen.

in fact, they argued against it saying it would irreparably damage his right to a fair trial. the courtsided with the news organizations allowing for its release. veronica miracle, cnn. a sixth rioter who assaulted a u.s. police officers with pepper spray has been sentenced to more than 6 1/2 years in prison. julian khater pleaded guilty. he has to spend 80 months behind bars, pay a $10,000 fine and another 2,000 in restitution. officer brian sicknick died the day after the attack after suffering several strokes. medical authorities determined he died of natural causes but said everything that happened during the riot played a role. all right. when we come back, remembering tyre nichols. the memphis grizzlies and the minnesota timberwolves hold a moment of silence. nicorette knows quitting smoking is freaking hard.

you get advice like... try hypnosis... or, quit cold turkey. are you kidding me? instead, start small with nicicorette, whwhich will lead to something big.

turning now to our top story. videos released showing the police beating of 29-year-old

tyre nichols sparked protests across america friday night. cities were on edge and prepared for violence. the protests were mainly peaceful despite the heartbreak the mother told cnn. >> i'll never have my baby a again, but i do know that he was a good person and that all this -- all the good in tyre will come out. and so that's what keeps me going because i just feel like my son was sent here on assignment from god and his assignment is over. it's over. he was sent back home, and god is not going to let any of his children's names go in vain.

so when this is all over, there's going to be some good and some positive because my son is a good and positive person. that's what keeps me going. that was my baby. he was a mama's boy. that boy loved me to death. he has my name tattooed on his arm. people don't know what those five police officers did to our family, and they really don't know what they did to their own families. they have put their own families in harm's way. they have brought shame to their own families. they brought shame to the black community.

i just feel sorry for -- i feel sorry for them, i really do. >> nichols death is being felt in the sports world as well. memphis grizzlies nba team held a moment of silence before the minnesota timberwolves. the death is heartbreaking. >> our team understands that our city's hurting. the nichols and wells family is hurting right now. the senseless loss of life for tyre nichols has really hit us hard and it's been tough being on the road, not being home. i wish i could extend my arms through this camera right now, you know, to the family. they're going through a lot. i watched the interview with the family today, and hearing mrs. wells talk with so much strength and positivity and love was powerful. it evoked a lot of emotions. i cried. >> the nba tweeted out a statement saying in part, the

images of tyre nichols life needlessly cut short are horrifying. the nba family remains committed to partnering with advocates, law enforcement and the issues we face. the thoughts are with the family and friends of nichols, the entire memphis community and those affected by the tragic images. before we go, a go fund me campaign has been set up to remember tyre nichols who loved to skateboard. his mother created it to help build a memorial skate park in tyre's honor. it will also help her and her husband to get mental health care to cope with tyre's death. an hour after the videos released the go fund me was at about $82,000. at last check just moments ago, almost $350,000 has been donated. that wraps this hour of "cnn newsroom." i'm kim brunhuber. thanks for watching. "cnn this morning" is next.
