1
00:00:01,635 --> 00:00:05,339
having me.
>> The fatal shooting of 38

2
00:00:05,405 --> 00:00:08,575
year old Corey Ruiz by a
Madison police officer also

3
00:00:08,642 --> 00:00:11,545
garnered national attention
this week. The Wisconsin

4
00:00:11,612 --> 00:00:13,847
Department of Justice
released the name of the

5
00:00:13,914 --> 00:00:16,783
officer, Kiel
Baitinger-Peterson, who has

6
00:00:16,850 --> 00:00:19,319
more than ten years of
experience, was injured by

7
00:00:19,386 --> 00:00:21,722
Ruiz with a knife before
the officer opened fire.

8
00:00:21,788 --> 00:00:25,092
The investigation is
ongoing and there was no

9
00:00:25,158 --> 00:00:27,127
information on whether the
officer will be referred

10
00:00:27,194 --> 00:00:30,831
for charges. He remains on
administrative leave. The

11
00:00:30,898 --> 00:00:33,000
funeral for Ruiz was held
at the Fountain of Life

12
00:00:33,066 --> 00:00:35,602
Church today and was
attended by his family.

13
00:00:35,669 --> 00:00:38,105
Civil rights attorney Ben
Crump and the Reverend Al

14
00:00:38,172 --> 00:00:41,074
Sharpton.
>> He touched a lot of

15
00:00:41,909 --> 00:00:46,580
people in and out of the
streets of Madison, city of

16
00:00:48,248 --> 00:00:51,151
Madison, and every single
one is affected by the loss

17
00:00:51,218 --> 00:00:55,255
of my son. I am angered at
the people that took him

18
00:00:55,322 --> 00:00:59,560
from me. They had no right
though. I have three

19
00:01:00,861 --> 00:01:03,697
beautiful grown children
left to love and cherish. A

20
00:01:03,764 --> 00:01:07,734
piece of my heart has been
torn from my chest. I love

21
00:01:07,801 --> 00:01:11,471
you, my first born boy.
You're beautiful. You're

22
00:01:11,538 --> 00:01:15,876
handsome as you are now
with the angels and not in

23
00:01:15,943 --> 00:01:19,079
pain. I leave you in the
hands of God to watch over

24
00:01:19,146 --> 00:01:21,715
you.
>> From the time I saw. I

25
00:01:23,150 --> 00:01:27,387
don't think that officer
thought if they discharged

26
00:01:27,454 --> 00:01:32,159
the gun, that people would
stand up. I don't think the

27
00:01:32,226 --> 00:01:35,596
officer thought that people
like Crump would come and

28
00:01:35,662 --> 00:01:39,666
help the legal team. I
don't think they thought

29
00:01:39,733 --> 00:01:43,303
people like me would come
and do his funeral, but I

30
00:01:43,370 --> 00:01:46,406
want them to understand
that we come in the name of

31
00:01:46,473 --> 00:01:49,643
someone that tell us, no
matter who they are and

32
00:01:49,710 --> 00:01:53,347
what rank they are, we
going to stop and stand up

33
00:01:53,413 --> 00:01:58,118
for justice for this young
man? Corey Lewis because he

34
00:01:58,185 --> 00:02:01,522
could have been one of our
children.
