Alright, everybody just...

Okay.

You go right through the doors, please.

Do you know if he was wearing his vest?

He's an officer. He should've had on his vest

you can't tell. You can't call anybody and ask?

No, we don't have the report yet.

What information did they give you?

They didn't give me anything.

How long do I have to wait again?

How long?

How are you feeling, Mr. Jones?

All right.

Yeah, you've been through a lot the last couple of days.

Your body needs some rest.

You do need some time off

that's for sure.

I think you're getting a lot better.

Just need some rest.

What are you gonna do

about this motherfucking nigger cop that shot my son?

Okay, you need...

You need to keep your voice down.

We don't address our officers by color,

but by last name or rank.

I can see that you're angry, but so are the Jones family.

They are both cops and they're both in our prayers.

You need to go to the hospital.

Be by your family's side.

They need you more than ever now.

I'm sorry.

We tried to resuscitate him, but his wounds were fatal.

Nol

nol

We can fix this.

I hope these motherfuckers... It ain't no set up or no shit.

My niggas know the whereabouts. The where to be.

The where to be the fuck at.

Homie, I'm trying to fix this shit. You feel me?

Well, check this out,

if united both flags is the new suicide,

then let it ring 'cause I'm not gon' keep standing by.

Keep letting these happy crackers

keep having open season on us.

I rather die standin' on my feet then live on my knees any day.

You follow me?

Why don't we do this right?

Then we both is all shooters together and everything else.

You feel what I'm saying?

Let's do the negotiations on that part, b.

Got you.

Aight, blue.

This motherfucker, man.

Aye yo blue, man.

Why you bringing this red ghost slop up in here, man?

Aye yo chill, man.

You house trained little poodle?

Yo chill, du.

You gotta understand it's the color you're wearing

that incites the bull.

Y'all already know what this is.

It's only right we sit down and put our flags to the side

and create a truce, especially with all this shit.

Got all these police keep killing us out

in these streets like this

all right, crip.

'Cause you got to know we wouldn't be here

if it was any other option.

I wouldn't want to have to

I got people all over, man.

Og's know, man.

He know me, hey. That part.

So what you said is now we got a temporary truce?

I mean I know we on y'all side, y'all say cool.

You know, when this side over here translation I say boom.

Du, tell the rest of the set.

Aye yo, man, you trust this nigga?

Yo, you ain't gotta trust me.

I'm Mr. word out 'cause the word out is like word out

boom

that part right there.

Dun, dun, dun.

Aight, cuz.

I'm like god on whoop gang.

These is bloody shoes.

Fuck that nigga.

Yo cuz, I don't trust that nigga, man.

Fuck that

that nigga crazy.

A source tells us this could have been

a case of mistaken identity, but either way,

this entire community is on edge.

Joining me live now is Regina Clark.

Regina, you witnessed this all.

What can you tell us?

He deserved what he got.

They come in our community.

They kill our young black men

and they walk out without a scratch, but not today.

Everybody was yelling and telling him not to shoot

and that the other guy was a cop, too, just like him,

but because he was black, he didn't wanna believe it.

It was self defense if you ask me.

Well thank you for that.

As you can see raw emotion spilling out here to the streets.

Daddy, do white cops hate black people?

Back to you.

Baby.

Baby, come here.

Careful.

Now, where'd you hear that?

What would make you say that, Sabrina?

My teacher asked how's your father coming along

and then my friend Peter said

that white cops don't like black people.

Oh, baby.

Your friend Peter

he's wrong.

Now mommy and daddy would not be cops if that were true.

- Yeah. - Okay?

Yeah, you know what Sabrina?

Sometimes, um, when people are afraid,

sometimes they act out in anger

and it affects how they, um, deal with other people.

Right?

And then, um, it doesn't necessarily mean

that they hate the person,

but just sometimes people act out of fear.

Do you understand?

Okay.

Well, go brush your teeth.

Get ready for bed, okay?

Okay.

Night, night.

Love you, daddy.

Love you too, mommy.

Love you, baby.

Oh god.

Did you hear that?

This is crazy.

Do you see how this is affecting our child?

How are we supposed to raise a child

in this climate when we're the boogeyman?

This is ridiculous

or some.

Like we're some kind of racial group

that doesn't like people for their differences

and beliefs and cultures.

I tell you what though.

I swear to god, I'll quit this force

before I let it dilute our child.

Social media don't make it no better

let me go get her situated.

I'm sorry for your loss.

You've come to the right place for support.

I wanna show you something and you give me your take on it.

What do you see?

And what comes to mind when you look at this?

All I see are niggers and spics.

We see the same vision.

Yo, you know where that come from?

Knowing the creator.

But yo on some real shit.

That shit happened so fast, I thought I was a dead man.

Yeah, I heard.

My mans and 'em out of Jamaica fam

was killed by one of them devils.

He said they tried to say homie went for their weapon.

That's the reason they killed him.

Some bullshit.

I'll tell you that.

Yo, I'm getting sick and tired of this shit.

And you know what?

I'd rather be judged by 12 then to be carried by six.

You feel me?

Feel you.

Real talk.

Real talk.

Nigga, what you mean real talk?

Your dusty ass ain't about nothing

but stealing the coldest beer out the arab store.

Come on, nigga.

Yo, chill out, man.

Yo, this is some serious shit.

What other options we have left for us?

You said yourself you'd rather be judged by 12

than carried by six.

Yeah, man.

That's a fact

what else y'all getting into though?

Got some hos on mind.

I got a lot of shit on the mind.

Nah, seriously though.

I'm getting sick and tired of these pigs, man.

Yo look, I ain't no killer or nothing.

You know I'm a working man, but I'm a man first.

That's what's up.

Ain't nobody gonna save us but us.

Yo, this shit got to stop, man, for real.

And I think we got to do something about it.

I'm ready to do it with you.

Hey.

I still can't believe he's gone.

Don't do this.

I can't either.

But we gotta hold up for mom.

Can you do that?

Yeah

okay.

Where's mom?

Upstairs.

And Josh?

He's up there too, acting weird.

All right.

This is what I'm gonna do.

I'm gonna go talk to Josh.

I'll be right back.

No more liquor.

Glad you're here.

Okay.

Hey.

What did I say?

No more liquor.

Okay?

Got jt.

I promise.

Okay.

I love you so much.

I love you.

Okay.

What's up?

What are you doing? I was watching that.

What were you and John

whispering about at the hospital?

I don't know what you're talking about.

You don't know what I'm talking about?

You fucking selfish prick.

Let me tell you something.

Mom had to bury one son 'cause of his fucking ego.

Don't make it two in the same fucking week.

You don't think I don't know what John's up to?

He's mind fucking you.

You done?

I got more to say to you.

You bring any fucking pain into her house

any more than she's been through.

You bring any trouble in here and guess what?

I'm gonna be the one who fucking turns your ass in.

Oh, you want revenge?

You're a fucking man.

It wasn't about me

it's about him

yeah, what are you gonna do?

You gonna bring him back?

This is the stupidity that fucking got him killed

in the fucking first place.

What are you gonna do?

Get yourself fucking killed.

Is everything all right in here?

Yeah, it's okay, mom.

Yeah, mom, we're, uh...

We were just getting stirred up.

We're talking about the good old days.

Morning.

Hey, gentlemen.

How you feeling?

I've felt better

let's get this started.

My name is Jerry rifkin from internal affairs.

This is lieutenant Michael rullan.

Please state your name, rank,

and precinct you're assigned to.

My name is detective Chris Jones, 115th precinct.

All right, Chris, can you tell us

what happened on the night of June 16th?

Yes

a friend and I were coming out of a bodega

where we were approached by two plain clothes officers.

How'd you know they were plain clothes officers?

One was wearing badge beads around his neck

all right, go on.

Detective McKenzie, rest in peace, approached me.

Though they were both asking for ID,

detective McKenzie seemed overly aggressive

for it to be identification check.

Then I spoke in code to his partner

and I asked him if a call had come in from central.

He glanced over at me as if he knew the language.

That's when detective McKenzie remained stoic

and things got confrontational.

You said confrontational

what are you referring to?

The friend that I was with stated to me verbatim

"talk to your fucking people.”

Detective MacKenzie must've felt

that he was directing his frustration towards him.

That's when he stated back to my friend,

"watch your fucking mouth before I crack you in it."

I stated to him, "you think that badge grants you the merit

to talk to people that way?”

Detective McKenzie's face remained aloof

as if he had already made his future decision.

While all of this is happening, I'm still looking for my ID.

I tell him that it must be in the truck across the street.

He glances over it, but to no avail

did any of them take the initiative

to validate my reasoning for the identification delay.

At that time his partner...

He notices my backup weapon and he yells out "gun."

And I said to him, "I'm a cop.”

"Don't shoot. I'm a cop.” that's what I said.

Detective McKenzie takes out his firearm

and he fires two shots at me.

One hitting me in my body armor

and the second one penetrating in my hip.

I then returned fire striking detective McKenzie

while I'm on the ground.

Two shots

All right.

Is there anything else you'd like to say

before we close out this interview?

I just wanna send my condolences out to his family.

All right.

We bring this interview to a close.

Time is now 11:14 am

You think just because you got a badge

lets you talk to people like that?

Gives you the merit to speak to people like that?

Yes, it does.

Don't shoot, I'm a cop.

That's what I said.

I'm a cop.

Don't shoot, I'm a cop.

Has anyone got word back from Chris?

Today he went for his I ad interview.

Oh, that's right.

Yeah, not today. We spoke yesterday.

I said we'd all come by to cheer him up.

You guys see how they're rioting in different cities

'cause unarmed black men are being killed.

Fucking crazy.

It's scary because there's so many good cops

out here honoring the badge.

Yeah, it's true.

It may sound crazy but the good ones are looked

at even worse than the ones abusing the badge

and that's because we turn an open eye

instead of doing something about it.

Look, don't get me wrong.

Some of these perps that we arrest,

you wanna turn an open eye

and put your hands and feet on them.

Yeah I would if I was into that type of force.

Those would be the ones that are your rapist and molesters.

You don't kill them

that's true

you know, it's a gift and a curse.

Hey, what time we headed over to Chris'?

I need to get home to prepare dinner.

Oh, let's meet up like seven being that it's Friday.

Okay, great. Sound good?

- See you guys later? - All right.

- Get home safe. - Yeah.

Oh my god, I still can't believe what happened.

Yeah, it's bullshit.

That it is. That it is.

Them shits gon' get you too high, my nigga.

You know what I'm saying?

I don't fuck with that shit

them niggas better not violate though.

I'm telling you, man.

Straight up.

Yo, man.

I don't think we even gotta fucking wear this shit, man.

You know what I'm saying?

Yo, man, who gives a fuck what you think, my nigga?

You know what I'm saying?

Listen, I don't agree with half of this shit out here.

But I listen

you know what I'm saying?

Yo

What up, cuz?

What's going on with you?

What's popping, man?

Just trying to stay sucker free.

That's all, you know.

That's all you can do.

Aight, aight.

What's up?

What's good, man?

When your brother suave come home?

He still got about three to do.

- Damn. - Short.

Three?

That's what it is.

Shit, he'll be home soon.

I know your ass was shook when them shots ran out though.

It take you to say something like that, right?

But to answer your question, you damn right I was.

I'm a working man.

I ain't used to having guns and shit pulled in my face,

especially by the motherfuckers

that's supposed to protect and serve me.

You feel me?

Nigga, I don't feel you.

You know I'm only fucking with you, my nigga.

I know, nigga. I know. You already know, nigga.

Good morning, sir.

I have something for you.

You can't be serious.

First degree murder?

Do you love your job?

You know what?

Ponder that before you answer and bring me a real case.

You know they're talking about

trying to bring charges up against you, right?

Yeah, tell me about it.

My lawyer told me something like that.

Also told me not to worry about it.

I don't get it.

If this were vice versa,

it would have been considered a friendly fire.

Yeah.

Give a fuck, cops, come on.

All I can say is that today is a new day.

Is 117?

As long as you address your deepest sympathy

to the McKenzie family and made peace with god,

amen.

Yeah, that's true.

So how did the I.A.D. Briefing go?

Better than I anticipated.

Yeah, you know the drill, you know.

What happened before the fatal shot?

What they really wanted to know was

at what point in time did I state that I was a cop?

That's exactly what they wanted to hear.

Everything else was circumstantial to their ears.

You know it.

Yeah, I'm just happy you wore your body armor.

Yeah, well you're gonna have to thank Jackie for that

because she makes me wear it, ugh, everywhere besides bed.

Damn right 'cause you never know.

Well, I'd say she just proved a point, huh?

Enough said.

It's just ridiculous because you know,

we take this job with the notion to protect people.

Then we, as cops have to come home

and hear our child ask us do white cops hate black people.

It's crazy.

That's what she said to us the other day.

- Are you serious? - Man, now that hurts.

And what's sad is that not every white cops

have those hateful feelings.

The moral of it all is that we have a job to uphold,

and before we go out there and perform our duties,

get down on our knees and you thank god for waking up.

That's right.

We kiss our loved ones.

And we tell ourselves at the end of the day

that we are gonna make it home one way or another.

Yeah

well, it's getting late.

Yeah, I agree.

Jackie, it's always good to see you.

Help me up. Help me up.

When's the next time I see you to the range?

You might see. I need to be on this morning.

I'll let you know.

Yeah, okay.

Careful.

I hope you see us

back out there sooner than later.

You know that

continue getting that work comp disability

or whatever you've been getting there.

You crazy.

Get out of my house.

Have a good night.

Y'all get home safe.

We are gathered here to praise god

to witness to our faith and to give thanks

for the life of our dear brother Peter.

Blessed are the dead who die in the lord says the spirit

for they rest from their labors

and their works follow them all the days of their life.

Are there members of the family

who would like to offer any last words for Peter?

He wanted to make a difference

how proud he was to serve as an officer

in the New York City police department.

You will be missed, my son.

Now people of god is to go forth upon this day

and upon this hour.

We live into the blessing and the service

and the life of Peter that as he helped

and blessed this world, we go forth with the same spirit

within our hearts and upon our souls.

From this day forward and forevermore.

Amen.

How you coming along?

I'm okay, captain.

Just one day at a time.

It's a sad day for us all.

Why are you here?

Why?

You're not one of us.

Detective Jones, is there anything you'd like to say?

How do you feel about the loss of detective Peter McKenzie?

Do you feel this whole incident was racially motivated

due to all the unarmed African American men

who are being gunned down

in this country by police officers?

Please

you as an African American detective,

what do you think needs to be done

to address this senseless violence against latino

and African American men by police?

Accountability.

Well, there you have it.

Truly solemn day for one of New York's finest

as both the mayor and the chief of police

briefly spoke about the emotional toll

this has taken on the community.

I'm Jim hannigan reporting live.

Back to you in the studio.

You nervous?

A little

daddy, what is this place?

It's a place where cops like daddy

come to be interviewed, buddy.

Interviewed about what?

About how good we work...

Or how bad.

Justin, that's enough with the questions, okay?

So daddy's gonna go and talk to these men

and then afterwards we can go get your favorite food.

Would you like that?

McDonald's

that's it, but no more questions.

Good morning.

You nervous?

No

The time is 10030 am.

The day June 30th, 2018.

My name is internal affairs detective Jerry rifkin.

This is lieutenant Michael rullan.

Can you state for the record your name, rank,

and the precinct you're assigned to?

My name is officer David Mitchell

and I'm assigned to the 12th precinct.

Can you tell us to the best of your knowledge

what happened on the day of June 16th?

My partner officer Peter McKenzie

and myself were performing a routine identification stop

when we observed two African American males

coming out of the bodega on ninth and 40th Avenue,

who appeared to be loud and disturbing.

At that point, we jumped out of our unmarked cruiser

and approached the two men.

When you say appeared to be loud,

can you amplify a little more on what appeared means?

Sure.

They were talking loud.

At that point I started performing a warrant check

on one of the men while officer McKenzie tried

to contain Chris Jones, but within five minutes,

Chris John started acting belligerent

and crazy and refused to surrender his identification.

And at that point I happened to notice his firearm.

I alerted Peter and we both drew our guns

and ordered Chris Jones to lie on the ground.

At that point, it looked like Chris Jones

was going for his gun and that's when

officer McKenzie fired striking Jones.

At any point in time, did officer Jones state

that he was an officer?

No

Are you sure that at no point in time,

did officer Jones state to the best

of your knowledge that he was a cop?

Not that I can recall

You stated when you both observed officer Chris Jones

and Jason Johnson you were performing a routine stop.

- Correct? - That is correct

on who?

I'm sorry I don't understand your question.

On who were you performing a routine identification stop

when you noticed officer Chris Jones

and Jason Johnson appearing to be loud?

On no one.

That was our assigned patrol duty.

I have two more questions and I'm done.

Do you acknowledge officer Chris Jones

as your fellow officer?

Of course. Why would you ask that?

Why didn't you fire your weapon, officer Mitchell?

Excuse me.

Well, in this report it states,

you didn't discharge your weapon. Why?

My partner had already fired striking Jones.

I'm sorry. What...

Are you saying I didn't do my job?

Officer Mitchell, is there anything else you'd like

to state before we close on this inquiry?

No, thank you.

The time is 10:40.

This inquiry has come to a close.

Look at all the stolen bikes in the pile over here.

Motherfucker.

They put police tape on 'em, too.

I ook at that

they put fucking, they use our tape.

That's from where the guy got shot the other day.

They took the tape out to put it over it.

Well, he had it coming.

- These fucking kids, man. - He had it fucking coming.

Nothing over here either.

No, I don't see nothing.

Where the fuck are these guys?

Ah, they're off to a meeting.

We get no luck.

We're better off getting something to eat.

You're hungry already?

I'm hungry.

Ah, fuck.

We'll get something in a little while.

Hold on

what's over there?

All right, that's what up?

- Are you gripped up? - Hell yeah.

Aight, just make sure you be mindful.

They gonna be on that bullshit today

being at the funeral for that cop Chris hit is today.

Aight, I'm definitely am up on it.

Aight, that's what's up.

Aight du, what's hot? Be right back.

Ayo, like I was saying, make sure you stay on point, man,

- Hold up. - Excuse me.

Yo! Hey, they about to shoot me.

Fuck over here on the hood

piece of shit

I gotta wrap her hair?

No, she wants her hair down.

This is what she wants

Sabrina, go brush your teeth before you go to bed.

I already did.

Fxcuse me.

Mommy thinks that you don't know her.

All of a sudden out of nowhere

don't treat me like a boy.

I don't care

I don't care

tell him again.

Chris, get up.

You're gonna hurt her. She's a qirl.

That's my baby.

Yeah

Yes

Fun, fun, fun. Goodnight, sweetie.

- Goodnight. - Goodnight.

She's getting so big.

I know. That's your child.

I'm not ready for teenage years.

This is it.

You ready?

Not today. What?

Dude, I went on a fucking limb for you

to get this information.

I said I'm not ready!

What are you scared of? I mean...

Sh, sh, sh, sh.

There's nothing there.

Come on, man. Come on.

All right, fuck it, fuck it.

You don't wanna fucking do it? Let's go. Let's go.

- Come on, man. - Fucking pussy.

Let's go, go.

Lights going over that manhole cover.

Oh man.

He did say he was a cop before we opened fire on him.

Pull over to the right.

What did you just say?

License and registration.

Yeah. Can you tell me why you pulled me over?

What?

Can you tell me why you pulled me over?

Excuse me. You're free to go.

- Drive safe. - Okay.

Did you tell internal affairs the same story?

No, because we had a beer that night.

It was game night.

Peter was having trouble at home and

we pulled over to perform a routine identification stop,

but this guy was hitting Peter

with questions only a cop would know.

I kept looking over at Peter,

but Peter was off in his own world being Peter.

He even said that his fucking ID

was in the truck across the street

did you validate that information?

Did you go across the street to the truck?

No, because I was holding a perp I'd attained.

Plus I thought maybe he just knew those questions.

You know?

Hey look, I would've never expected to go the way it did.

But by then it was too late anyways.

I saw his gun and I alerted Peter.

He was a cop for crying out loud.

You both ignored him and a life was taken.

Two families are broken because of you both.

Yeah, Chris.

Hey. “Welcome back.

Good to see you, man. “Thanks

feels good to be back. Hey.

Welcome back, partner.

Hey.

Thanks for all the love to all y'all.

Good to see you back on your feet.

I wouldn't be able to do it alone.

It's always love.

Yeah, yeah.

If I'm not mistaken, I think you owe me some money.

This guy and his money.

The game. I almost forgot.

Yeah, I knew I was gonna have to pay the reaper one way or another.

Nah, it's cool. Glad to have you back.

Nice.

You ready to hit the bricks or what?

Yeah, let's get it.

- Let's do it. - All right.

See you guys later.

Be safe out there.

Yeah, you too.

Detective

hey, cap.

It's good to have you back.

It's good to be back, captain.

Keep your eyes open.

Not everybody's in favor of the turnout.

Feel me?

I understand

good.

You watch out for each other.

Of course, cap.

Get out of here.

You driving?

Of course.

Unbelievable.

For six months I heard about how I missed the barbecue.

'Cause I'm working.

It's like god forbid.

Yeah, so you better be there.

If I'm not there, I'm gonna have somebody kicking my ass.

That's right.

You know the Korean temper.

It's good to have you back here.

I appreciate that.

You been watching the news?

What are you gonna tell me?

Yeah, I watched the news, but not that much, I don't know.

You know what the news will do to you?

It'll make you quit this job.

We don't get enough bad news.

Go 'head. What bad news you wanna tell me?

It's all over the news that the cop

that shot your brother is back on the beat.

Yeah. Well that's good 'cause he's a cop.

He's got mouths to feed.

He's got a home to go home to.

It's honorable to hear you say that.

Don't get me wrong.

I love my brother.

As much as I honor this badge.

But only the people that were there

and god truly know what happened that night.

It's not honor

it's accepting the fate of our decisions.

And I gotta trust in god's will.

Surrender, right?

Surrender.

You know all about surrender. I would hope, right?

Surrender. Surrender.

I'm trying my best to fucking surrender.

And the rest of your family?

They're surrendering?

Irish catholic families don't know

what the fuck surrender means.

They're surrendering to the liquor stores

is what they're surrendering to these days.

No, they're doing the best they can.

I love them. I mean, I'm trying. They're getting there.

It's Josh that I worry about.

What's going on with Josh?

It's nothing. I just...

I worry about him.

All right, all right.

- Fucking move. - All right.

What is that? What the fuck are we doing?

Come on. Oh shit.

Look man, I'm not ready. I think I should go.

Fuck up and give me the crowbar, dickhead.

Give me the crowbar.

Ah fuck.

Fuck

- fuck is wrong with you? - Shit.

- Come over here. - Fucking hand.

- Fucking baby. - Fuck.

Fuck up.

Fuck

come on, dick.

What are we doing?

Get the fuck over here.

Come on. Do you hear that?

Shut the fuck up. Look, I think we should go.

Give me the flag. So what are you a fucking child?

Give me the fucking flag.

Fuck out of here. Come on.

Hurry.

Fuck

I'm just so fucking glad that Sabrina wasn't here. Fuck!

Where's Sabrina?

She's at her grandmother's house.

Can you imagine if she would've been in there?

Can you imagine if Sabrina would have been in the house?

Got him.

Oh my god.

Whoever did this, left something behind.

Thank god.

That's good. You take that down to the lab right now

and you get that checked out.

Yeah, asap.

Look, we're gonna get this motherfucker, okay.

Yeah

they're gonna start to get some looks, okay.

- This is just pure hate. - It's okay.

Nah, that's hate, man.

I'm gonna see you guys tomorrow.

Bye, guys.

What the fuck is going on?

It's okay.

A very emotional day for Anthony Williamson's family.

We just received word that NYPD officer Michael Garrett

will not face any criminal charges

in the shooting death of Williamson.

He was unarmed at the time when the officer

allegedly mistook his cell phone for a handgun.

The family members just left court here minutes ago

devastated over these latest developments.

For now we're live outside queens criminal court.

Nicole Johnson. Back to you.

Hey Garrett.

Get down, get down. Get on the ground.

Garrett, Garrett!

Anybody else hit?

Anybody else hit?

Garrett! Medic!

Stay with me. Secure the area.

Secure the area!

The tenants in this neighborhood

are still very upset that there has been

10 consecutive days of no running water.

Breaking news.

Officer Michael Garrett was just killed

inside his district precinct.

Oh shit.

No idea to what connection the shooter...

There is a god.

Ma!

Lord Jesus, why?

Why would my son go and do that?

Oh god, all this shooting.

It's got to stop.

There must be a path to justice

with all this senseless shooting.

Mr. mayor, did you see the news today?

'Course I did.

Well, obviously you realize that we have a broken system.

And people are starting to take justice

into their own hands

now I get it.

It has to go through legislation.

It has to go through congress.

It has to go through the house and so on and so on.

But accountability must be a moral obligation

to the people and it must start somewhere

and somewhere has to be right here and right now, Mr. mayor.

Ses er tee ee

thank you.

Congressman, I agree with you.

Accountability starts here and I accept that challenge

and the people will know I accept that challenge

when I start to implement change.

My moral obligation is to the people of this city,

but the fight can't just be by myself,

legislature and congress.

The very people that object to the way these laws

are being enforced and governed are the same people

that voted for them in the first place.

Yes I mean, I'm the first one

to take responsibility for my people.

You know, I am them and they are me.

But the reality is, leadership begins at the top.

It starts at the top. And you and I both know

attitude reflects leadership.

It's time, Mr. mayor.

Congressmen, know that I hear the cries for justice.

Mr. mayor, you hear my cries for justice,

but the reality is we feel the pain just us.

If you'll excuse me, gentlemen.

Chris!

Come down here before your food gets cold.

I'm so proud of you that you ate your food today.

Thank you, mommy.

Did you pack my money in my bag for my trip?

Yes, I have.

You have badgered me about it morning,

noon and night, little girl.

You're the best, mommy.

Okay, and you're the best seven year old.

Chris!

Hey baby, did you see what I saw?

Who the hell is knocking at the door like?

Officers.

Hello.

Wait, hey. Chris.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, hold up.

Come here, baby.

What's the problem?

Good morning.

My name is detective Jack mullen

and this is my partner detective Keith Edwards.

No, I didn't ask you your names. I asked you why you're here.

I'm sorry, but we don't make the rules.

We have a warrant for your arrest.

Respect you as one of us.

With that being said.

We won't treat you any less than your rank

and we won't handcuff you.

What is detective Chris Jones being charged for?

We don't know

our orders were only to bring him in.

That's all we know, sargent.

That's all you know?

This is some bullshit.

This... this is ridiculous

hey, hey, shhh.

It's okay.

Don't you worry. Look. Hey, don't you worry.

You know what to do

don't touch me, man.

Yo, how you feel about that situation, Jay?

What they trying to give you some stupid ass payout

for some mental anguish or something?

Yeah, I wish.

Look, all he worried about is me never missing a day's work.

Yo, you know what my boss had the nerve

to say to me the other day?

"Watch the people you keep around you

"because if you miss another day at work,

I'ma have to find somebody to replace you."

Typical plantation talk, see.

I hate that cracker. Word to my mother.

It ain't all what it seems.

Read the newspaper.

What the fuck he talking about read the newspaper?

Everybody know that they lock Chris up

for killing that devil.

Could they even do that? Ain't he a police officer?

Easy. Just do it.

Exactly. Shit ain't gonna be real to them

until we start murdering these motherfucking crackers, man.

Start shooting them unarmed white kids

yeah, you ain't never lie.

Them some wicked folks

yeah, I was looking at this farrakhan video last night.

Like basically he went on to say

how if the legal justice system fucked up,

the next step is to result in violence.

I isten

I don't never agree with nothing he say,

but I can honestly say I definitely agree

with this one right here.

I fucks with farrakhan, man.

Fuck that. Yeah word.

Before I got my flag, I had knowledge of self.

He was always dropping bombs about racism and them devils,

but then when his man Khalid Muhammad got smoked

and he didn't respond, that's when I fell back on him.

Yeah, I heard about that with Khalid.

I fucked with Khalid, but that's like me

not riding out for the peoples, man.

Never would I do that.

All right 'cuz, you see?

What up, cuz?

- What up, og? - What's happening?

Cuz, what's up? What's happening?

Justice, let me holla at you right quick.

Come on, let's talk about it.

Oh boy.

Daddy.

Hey, Princess.

Woo, how was your day”?

Good. Mommy made a surprise for you.

She did?

Yup, but you have to promise me

you won't tell her I told you.

Oh, I don't know.

You know, we don't keep secrets around here.

You know that

aw

Okay, you can tell me.

What is it?

Red velvet cake.

What?

My favorite.

Kimberly, where are you?

I should have known when she disappeared.

- Hey baby. - Hi_

How was your day?

Interesting.

All right, well get cleaned up.

Dinner is ready.

Okay, I'm hungry.

Papa's hungry.

Oh, and another thing.

Yeah?

I'll just tell you at the table.

Oh, okay.

Kimberly, come. Help me set the table, okay?

Okay. Okay.

Oh man.

You didn't tell your father what we made for him, did you?

Huh?

Kimberly?

I tried to keep it a secret, but it's hard.

Daddy gets everything out of me.

Your father is your kryptonite to Superman.

What's that?

What's that?

That's I love you!

All right, before we can eat,

it's your turn to say grace.

Okay.

Thank you god for this good food mommy cooked.

Oh, and the red velvet cake for daddy.

Yaaay!

Oh boy, this looks delicious.

Papa is hungry.

Thank you.

Can you cut my chicken?

Sure, just pass your plate.

I'm not the cupcake.

You're the cupcake.

You're my two favorite women in the whole world.

Oh wow.

I et's eat

What'd you wanna tell me?

I have nothing to say.

I just wanna ask you how you're feeling.

It seems like you have a lot on your mind.

Yeah

I can tell this guy thinks I'm against him.

Try not to let it worry you.

Like you always say to me.

You have your strategy.

Mm hm. But I think in this case,

it flares up some extenuating circumstances.

Do you got this, babe?

You know, at no point in the interview

did officer Mitchell refer to detective Jones as an officer.

And two, he never discharged his weapon.

Why wouldn't he discharge his weapon?

I don't know what to tell you when it comes to that.

Yeah, selective memory.

A lot of these young cops are never screened

for mental evaluation

they've been bullied as kids

or they're just fucking closet racist.

Well

that's good that you're the one on the job.

And you know I don't like closet racists.

Really?

I did not know that

really?

Thank you for that velvet cake.

You're so welcome.

How you feeling?

Let me tell you, cap.

I'm not gonna be taking that.

- Cap. - No

look captain, it's protocol.

- It's totally... - It's protocol.

Conversation is totally off the record.

Yes it is

I can't sit around and feel like I'm participating

in this whole ordeal

it has to stop.

You are a great detective.

Your safety is my concern.

Now don't get me wrong.

My pain goes out to the McKenzie family as well,

but there's too much at stake here.

So.

From this point on...

You are officially relieved from your duty as detective.

Starting effectively today you will be assigned desk duty.

Something tells me you're gonna be needing this.

I was thinking about having dinner for the holidays

at my place this year.

Okay, good.

Thank you.

What happened to your hand?

Huh?

What happened to your hand?

I cut it

it's no big deal.

We good?

Yeah, we're good.

All right.

Is everything all right here with him?

Yes.

Why do you ask?

How you doing, pop?

Morning to you, son.

It's not so good to me.

Let me get out of here.

Love you, mom.

See you later, pop.

Ease up on the sugar.

Hey.

- Good morning. - Morning.

Mom and pop are pretty blank this morning.

You know, Peter could do no wrong in their eyes.

You know that

he just keeps playing it over and over.

It's hard to move on.

They're getting better.

And you?

How you doing?

Different days, different feelings.

So tell me, did Josh tell you what happened to his hand?

Oh, he said something about cutting it on something,

but I don't really get into it with him.

I get it.

Let me get out of here.

I love you. Okay.

I love you.

How are you?

What's the word on Chris?

I know, I know.

Me and my husband was talking last night

about how easy it can be swept under the rug

when they the ones behind the gun.

And I love my job.

I really do, Lisa, but when it comes to my family...

My baby...

I'm treading.

Girl, you ain't gotta tell me.

- Really treading. - I know.

It's crazy out here.

Sometimes I feel...

You ready to get this work?

Get this work. You crazy.

- Get out of here. - Hey sergeant, what's up?

- How you doing? - What's up?

Let's go, come on.

Ain't he though? And he sexy, too.

You just gotta love him.

Look, for real though. You need something, you call me.

Watch yourselves out there.

Safety first.

- Love you. - Love you back.

- Sarge, you have a good day. - I will, at home.

That's great, buddy.

Yo man

you know, they giving little Chris Chris 25 years

for defending himself, man.

Self fucking defense. Quarter fucking century, nigga.

See, that's the bullshit right there.

You know what I mean?

I find it real funny how they can kill us.

Shoot black cops and shit like they did ole' boy.

The cop from queens.

That part.

And never even see the entrance of a courtroom.

Like what part of the game is that?

Yo bro, pass the blunt, man.

I hate how they do us,

but we have to blame ourselves too sometimes.

Fuck you talking about, Deb?

Why don't you listen?

It's like I said.

Them white cops are scared, too.

Okay, imagine some of them growing up in a white school,

surrounded by all white students,

dreaming of becoming a cop.

Never really coming into contact with blacks

except through the social media and news.

Right? Then they pass the cop test.

Get dropped into areas like ours

where people are killing each other like a sport.

First person they come into contact with

happens to be a flag leader

with tattoos all over his face tripping off of this sour.

Why are you looking at me?

You know what I'm saying.

Yeah, I know.

You blowing mine.

Listen. No, listen, she blowing y'all

'cause the fucking smartphone dumbed you down.

Look. This ain't fucking Utah and shit.

Some old hick ass shit where it's only two niggas

in the whole goddamn state, man.

It's the fucking mecca in the culture.

All this shit that's out here worldwide, nigga.

This motherfucking New York, blood.

That's a fucking excuse for them niggas

to just be fucking stupid, yo.

They wanna hold something. Hold these nuts, nigga.

I need something to get on my feet.

The best way to get on your feet

is to get the fuck off your ass.

Blood on that

if you don't fight for something,

you gon' fall for everything, blood.

That's what this truce's for.

I already beat up that motherfucking truce.

I don't know. Anybody got a motherfuckin' question about it?

Anything? I already beat that truth is popping like that.

Nana, you finished them taters back there and shit?

This shit ain't even lit

y'all niggas hungry?

Trigger, you ain't stupid like some people, all right.

One thing I can say that speaks volumes to young people

and cops is that we can come together.

That truce slash unity that you have

with croft and them crips supports that.

That shit speaks volumes to people like me,

but they're scared of that shit. And you wanna know why?

Why?

Because they don't like blacks coming together

because we're too influential

you know it. I know it.

Look at how hip hop affected their children

with listening to hip hop, dealing with racism.

They're not so much scared of the guns that we bust off.

They're scared of us uniting.

My bitch deep.

See that? You go, girl.

Boy please, you're my bitch.

Don't try to impress trigger because you know.

Shit.

Blood sample that was submitted last week

came back inconclusive.

So the blood sample is from a human,

not an animal, correct?

That is correct.

The only problem is that person's name

isn't in our system.

That is correct.

Do me a favor

have it run through an ncic check.

Something might come up.

Got jt.

You didn't think I fucking had it like that, you cocksucker.

You got this one, partner. I'll see you outside.

I'll see you later.

Yeah, don't worry.

Appreciate it.

We good?

All right.

Got you now, fuck boy.

Fuck you.

I can't Walt.

You're like a fucking child.

- Get the fuck out. - Goddamn.

Fucking take a piss every five minutes.

Yeah, just leave my door open.

Fucking jerk off.

Fuck man, I'm pissing all over myself.

Let's go, dick.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh fuck.

Let's go. All right, man.

Fucking jerk.

Maybe if we didn't fucking day drink,

I wouldn't have to piss so bad.

Ah, look at this.

Look at this, you fucking jerk off.

Just relax.

Look, I'm just gonna tell him my brother's a cop,

we'll get out of this.

- Yeah, okay. - Relax.

- Let's see if that works. - Be cool, man. Relax.

You had to go to the fucking...

'Cause you know what we got in the fucking back.

What you got?

It looks like we're having a little party here.

I was telling him

that we gotta get back to the house for my mother's dinner.

That you do.

Let me see some ID, license, registration.

You, you pissing on the sidewalk.

You see a sign that says fucking bathroom on the wall?

Oh no, officer, I'm so sorry, man.

My brother...

Oh yeah? What's your brother's name?

Kevin McKenzie

as in detective McKenzie, brother to Peter?

Yes, sir.

I'm sorry for your loss.

Peter was a friend

that was hard news. Yeah.

All right, so, so can we go now?

All right, here's what we can do

if there's nothing in the car

and your identifications coming back clear,

this never happened, okay?

Okay, cool.

No, no, why can't we just go now?

We're already running late.

It's still procedure.

Step out of the car.

We at the 110 all sympathize with your loss.

Oh, watch out.

Against the car. Hands behind your back.

I need back up on 86th street and 25th Avenue

across story boulevard.

White male wearing black tee shirt, blue jeans.

Possibly armed.

Come on, man.

He's being printed. All right, do me a favor.

Take detective McKenzie over to see officer Fuller.

All right. Detective, sorry for your loss.

Your brother and I were good friends.

Thank you. Appreciate that.

What's Josh being charged with?

Right now we didn't put him through.

All in good faith because you're his brother.

They found two guns in the back of a car

owned by a guy named John macintosh.

The car isn't under your brother's name.

You see where I'm going with this?

I see. Where's John being held now?

John took a run for it at the scene.

He got away.

Okay. Thank you.

Can I get a minute with him?

Sure. Take your time.

I appreciate that.

Sit down! Sit the fuck down now!

What were you and John planning on doing with those guns?

What guns?

The guns in the trunk

of that fucking car that you both were in.

That's what guns.

I told you before.

You come in here, you bring any problems to the family,

and I bust your ass myself.

Do you think I was joking with you?

I really didn't know there were any guns in the car.

Nothing. I didn't know.

I'm gonna get you out of this one,

but if I find out you knew...

Sit.

We have a problem.

What's the problem?

Your brother has an outstanding warrant.

An outstanding warrant for what?

You're not gonna believe this.

Josh's fingerprints were found at the scene

of the detective that's accused of killing your brother.

Are you fucking kidding me?

The media's gonna have a fucking field day with this.

I just found out how you cut your hand.

What?

Notify the district precinct who put the warrant out.

You gotta be kidding me, man.

What do you wanna do about this situation?

Charge him.

What? Hey. Come on, man.

Come on. Kevin

Kevin, come on, man. Kevin.

Come on, man, I'm your brother.

Come on. Get me out of here.

Kevin!

Hold your head, my nigga.

I'm trying.

Yo du, you good?

Why, what's up?

Don't worry 'bout them. They ain't gonna do shit. Fuck 'em.

What's up?

You guys got some ID on you?

I look like a kid to you?

Come on now, boys.

- You heard what he said. - Yeah, what's happening?

Fuck you gonna do?

You don't have nothing better to do

than harass these kids out here?

Yo, you see my man grandmom's out here, right?

Damn, man. That's somebody's grandmother.

Y'all being real disrespectful.

And she needs to watch her mouth before she gets locked up, too.

Yo, watch how you talk to my motherfucking grandmother.

Yo, yo, get my grandmother out of here.

- Fuck you gonna do? - What you mean what I'ma do?

What the fuck you gonna do?

Yo, yo!

Move so I can shoot this motherfucking cop.

I need backup.

Be advised, my radio is stolen.

j tosayhij

jl don't believe j

you wanna tell me something?

No

I think you're a lying scumbag.

The fuck you talking about?

You can tell me now or you can tell the judge later.

All right listen, I already fucking told you everything.

- Okay? - You don't fucking tell me now,

you'll never see your wife and son again.

You know, fuck you and fuck that nigger cop.

Listen. Listen, Mitchell.

You tell me what the fuck happened

on the night of June 16th. Huh?

Tell me

I already fucking told you everything.

I said tell me.

Weak, man.

Yo, take care of yourself out there today.

Detective, can I talk to you for a sec?

Hey, cap.

Of course.

I'm sure you already know about the big commotion

that took place in your old neighborhood

between 110th precinct and the two rival gangs.

The bloods and the crips.

Yeah, I see where this is going, cap.

To make a long story short.

I just got off the phone with the 110th

and they're asking for your help

in retrieving the radio that was taken

during that big incident between them and the two gangs.

Cap, what makes them think that I could get it back?

That's not what they're saying.

It's only a request with a strong hope

that you'll be able to make that radio materialize for them.

You puttin' me at great risk, cap,

but if that's what you're asking me to do then...

I mean, technically I've been relieved of my duties.

I'm supposed to be on desk duty right now.

I explained that to them.

That's one

and two I would never compromise nor negotiate your safety.

You know that

this is again, it's a request all in good faith.

All right, cap.

If that's what you want me to do then.

I'm good.

Can I go now? Yes

no

Never let the sickness like race or religion

of another man's mind be your crutch for deviating

from the moral obligation you still hold to that badge.

We all took an oath

we all share

now I don't agree with a lot of politics

or policies that our badge protects,

but I don't make the rules

I just follow them.

You got it, cap.

You got it.

How you holding up?

Good, ash.

I'm okay. Seen better days.

How's mom?

I miss you so much.

Come on, ash. Don't cry. You gon' make me cry.

I'm sorry.

Ma's fine.

Cries a lot.

We saw you on the news and she just broke down.

Had to do what I did

couldn't keep coming home looking ma in the face

and just not doing anything about it.

Then on top of that them cops is sitting there

laughing at us like they making fun of us.

I'm not mad at all

I just wish it could've happened

where you didn't get caught.

Honestly, once I made peace with god,

getting caught was the least of my worries.

I'm okay.

I miss Michael, but I ain't want him to die in vain.

You know?

Hey, remember when we was younger

and we would go to Nana's house?

She'll make that chocolate cake

and let us mix the icing off the blender.

You remember that?

I remember.

You and Michael used to fight over

who would get the bowl and Nana would give it to me

to be fair by not giving it to neither of you.

Only if you knew that I used to start

with Michael on purpose 'cause you was the little one

so you would never beat us to the punch.

For real?

Yeah, for real.

Visit's over.

Don't go. I have to.

I have to, ash, all right, but kiss mommy for me.

Tell her I love her, okay. They can't break me.

I love you. All right, I'ma be aight.

Please don't hurt my brother.

- I love you. - Ashley!

Remember that

I'm only doing this 'cause of you, blue.

This better not be no bullshit.

I got you, c.

Check this out, my nigga.

I don't talk to police.

I don't fuck with police.

Only reason I'm doing this is 'cause you from the hood.

Niggas say you 100 so speak on it.

Now croft, I appreciate you taking out

the time to meet with me.

Now there was an incident that allegedly occurred

between the crips and two detectives

from the 12th precinct, which led to a man being shot

and a police radio being taken.

What this shit's about a radio?

A motherfucking radio?

What, somebody told you I was there or some shit?

Hey.

Is this a set up or some bullshit? What's going on?

Hold up, I'm alone. I'm alone.

Yeah cuz, what I don't get is why the fuck you worried

about them cracker's radio so much?

Aren't they trying to send you to prison?

You know, I asked myself the same question.

Why the fuck am I standing with these people in the battle,

but I'm alone in the war?

And you're right.

You're fucking right.

It's 'cause I took an oath as you both did.

Now we may not agree with all the things

that happened under that color,

but we still find a way to protect it,

which means having a truce with them red ghost bloods.

That's to help things along the way.

We do what we gotta.

I need your help.

Either I come and get it or they gonna come and get it

and you and I both know only two things

are gonna happen if they come.

That's injustice and injustice.

Neither's good for business or for the community.

Check this out, my nigga.

I believe you give respect, you get respect.

You had a lot of balls coming here just fucking with me.

So I'm gonna do what I can do.

I put that on the set.

I ike I said

thank you for taking the time out to meet with me.

Yeah

I think we done

keep moving.

What you think, croft?

Fuck the police, man.

Fuck 'em.

I want you to listen to this.

Check this out.

I had an idea that he was a cop

once he asked us "why did you stop us"

and "did a call come in from central?"

He said he was a cop the whole time.

Wanted to go get his wallet from a Jeep across the street.

Mind fucker, huh?

Got that scumbag.

You heard it.

I'm demanding a dismissal and for my client

to be placed on full, active duty effective immediately.

All charges are hereby dropped

and you are placed back on full active duty

as a detective effective immediately.

Hey, thank you for being there for me.

I'm trying.

Detective Jones, are you planning on filing a defamation

of character lawsuit against the city?

No comment at this time

thank you.

What, if anything, did you learn from all of this?

Say something.

I can't

you know, I really enjoy being a detective

and despite all of our differences, okay,

most of all our legal justice system works

once we held them accountable for their actions.

Thank you.

Anything else you wanna share with us?

No, thank you. Excuse us, please. Thank you.

Detective, one more question.

And the world will never rise

to its full moral,

or political, or even social maturity,

until racism is totally eradicated.

Well, it may be true that morality cannot be legislated,

but behavior can be regulated.

It may be true that the law cannot change the heart,

but it can restrain the heartless.

It may be true that the law can't make a man love me,

but it can restrain him from lynching me

and I think that is pretty important also.

And so while the law may not change the hearts of men,

it does change the habits of men

if it's vigorously enforced.

J it's a difficult idea to comprehend j

js we try to act so perfect but it's all pretend j

j we feel alone in this world to realize we've got friends j

j but in the moment we latch onto what we're feeling j

j it's so bad that people are scared to travel through j

5 why are we so scared to just be true j

j you gotta find the strength to just be you j

j I know it's hard but it is something you gotta do j

j so I'm just gonna love myself &

j no, I don't need nobody else j

j 'cause I realize who I am is enough j

j so I'm just gonna love myself &

j I just wanna say you're the good in me j

j make it come alive, feel my heartbeat j

j I don't wanna be so perfect j

j I don't wanna feel so desperate j

ji don't have time for that j

j I just wanna see where my mind will go j

j where this goes from here only time will show j

j where is my life is going j

j 'cause I'm focused on my own thing j

j moving on my track j

j I'm not scared of some setbacks j

j 'cause I know that I can clap back j

j I don't need approval to feel beautiful ;

j I don't need to change myself to fit a mold j

j I'm not caught up with them boutiques j

j 'cause I am special 'cause I'm unique j

j I don't need to feel accepted j

j I hope you get the message j

j so I'm just gonna love myself &

j hey j
