0:00.0 | Ard Anderson, thank you very much. I'm Chris Cuomo, welcome to Prime Time. I have brand new reporting |
0:04.8 | in the Petito case. I know why there was a renewed search in the Carlton Reserve today in Venice, |
0:11.1 | Florida for Brian Laundry. It's because police found a new clue. We'll go through what it is and |
0:17.3 | what it could mean and also the latest on the Laundry family's legal situation in a moment. But first, |
0:24.0 | I know the news seems unrelentingly negative, but instead of cataloging the latest step down, |
0:31.6 | here's the real question that we face. It's not about what to do. It's about whether the will |
0:37.1 | exists to do what must be done. The question for you to be asking is, why does nothing get better? |
0:46.0 | Another school shooting, Mo Shrugged Off, you know, I used to be it almost all of them. |
0:50.7 | Now, we rarely travel to them because you only notice them if there's a shocking number of dead. |

1:26.4 | The laws don't work. 2021 is on pace to be the worst year for gun violence in decades. |
1:33.3 | More than 14,000 dead from guns just this year. No movement on national gun legislation. If you're |
1:40.8 | lucky, your state does something. I don't even know what laws would make it better. Check all sales, |
1:47.9 | no more semi-automatic rifles like the AR, maybe. But I doubt we'll ever know. |
1:55.1 | We choose instead to literally kill ourselves at a greater rate than ever before. Why? |
2:02.8 | The United States has now recorded our highest increase in our nation's homicide rate in modern history. |
2:10.4 | The rate rose 30% between 2019 and 2020, according to data from the CDC. The FBI has similar numbers. |
2:19.8 | Went from about six homicides per 100,000 in 2019 to 7.8 per 100,000 in 2020. |
