Summary

Louisville police released the bodycam videos that show officers responding to the Old National Bank where at least five people have died and another nine were injured. The deputy police chief said it is “100% certainty” the quick action by the police officers in the minutes after the shooting “saved lives.” Former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe joins to discuss how important the officer’s fast response to the shooter was.

Plus, Anderson Cooper sits down for an exclusive interview with Latavia Washington McGee and Eric Williams, who crossed the border into Mexico with two of their friends before they were taken, thrown in the back of a truck and kidnapped by a cartel. Their two friends were murdered while McGee and Williams made it back to the U.S. alive, but not without the trauma from the threats, torture and having to witness their two friends die in front of their eyes.
