Officer Richard Bird, Richie, has been on the security detail for Council's eager Gifford Miller just a couple of weeks.
July 23 is the first day, protecting Miller at a council meeting in City Hall.
"Porters, people from the public, just people all over the place. There was something with the Puerto Rican Day parade, and there were some young girls." Gifford Miller takes his place at the podium in the council chamber. Crowley all the takes lunch. The little girls from the Puerto Rican Day parade received their commendation, and then
we hear a pop. July 10, these are the actual shots recorded by a video camera in the chamber. And then I look up into the balcony, and I see the gunman, his arm out firing the gun. It's like, whoa, he was in a soup, his arm was out, and I am on the chambers floor, so I'm looking up.
I didn't see anyone else up there, but him. I guess I kind of had a tunnel vision, and the training kicked in, and I took out my gun, and I aimed it, and something that me don't practice at the range, I had to aim up.
“I don't remember seeing him fall, or anything, it's just like he just disappeared.”
The silver 40 caliber of handgun was recovered, and somebody told me that. Was it a coincidence? There were times when I thought that he was unstable, and there were times when I thought
Maybe you shouldn't carry a gun.
He alleged he was victim of a flat nail.
“This is not just killing somebody because you want this seat.”
There are times when everyone sees the same thing, the same event, from a different perspective, and understands what happened in very different ways. They might depend on where they were standing, or what they knew, or how they felt about the people involved, or what they wanted to believe. What happened at New York City Hall, on July 23, 2003, is one of those times.
I'm Jamal Jordan, and this is Roshak. Councilman Peter Velon Jr., standing on the floor of the chamber, about 15 feet behind Officer Richie Burb. I see a guy with a gun, but his back towards me, shooting up towards balcony. I was debating at the time whether I should make a run at this guy, but something about
Richie's mannerisms just led you to believe that this was a guy who was supposed to have a gun, and not the actual bad guy, I'm glad I didn't do anything stupid like
“Hackley Richie, sees the guy, pulls his gun, shoots six times, hit the guy four times”
out of six. This is probably 35-40 feet easy. Council Speaker Gifford Miller, initially thought Richie might have shot Jamesy Davis
by mistake, but Richie claims that he was never in doubt.
Despite the distance, 35-40 feet away, he says he would have recognized the Davis, who had occasionally been his instructor at the police academy. And after the fact, Gifford Miller is mostly struck by how cool Richie stayed under pressure. In a stressful situation, if you're like five feet from me, and I try to shoot you, I'll hit you 50% of the time, hard to hit somebody, harder than you think.
I could see the expression of the people in the first row, they're like jumping back, because they're right there. I don't know how the detective didn't hit anybody else, because he had to shoot up there
“and all of the folks were behind the shooting, I think it's a miracle that he didn't”
hit anybody else. It is nothing short of a miracle, that none of the shot hits an innocent bystander. And they may also have been lucky that Richie Bert was new in the job, because his Gifford Miller understood it a more experienced officer assigned two executive protection with no.
That unless the threat is of the person in there to protect, you do not engage the shooter. If Richie had gone through the extensive training of how to protect a particular principle, he probably wouldn't have shot in his Samar. And if he hadn't shot his Samar, I got to know what would have happened. The last time Gary Altman had seen this 21-year-old daughter Ariel, she was sitting inches
from James Davis in his guests in the balcony. It kept saying, "My daughter's up there. Where's my daughter? Can't see her." I think my daughter's up there.
Gary rushes out of the building, hoping in the find Ariel, but he doesn't see her. He's frantic, security lets him back inside. I go back in and I run back upstairs to the chambers to look, I don't go to the balcony. I don't know, why didn't I go look in the balcony? Then his phone rings.
For whatever reason I noticed these two guys in the row, they were sitting to my right. Like these two well-dressed guys. Ariel Altman is working at City Hall as a summer intern. She doesn't recognize the man sitting amongst the guests and staffers in the balcony. I didn't know who James Davis was.
Some of the other interns I was with didn't know who he was and they were kind of wondering why he was up in the balcony with us. As the meeting is starting, the two men get up from their seats, just a few feet from where she's sitting. Then at one point they started walking across.
As they're walking in front of where I am, James Davis is in front of the other guy and he just pulls a gun out and starts shooting at him. The man shoots James Davis multiple times in the back.
I had never heard gunshots and definitely not close like that.
Her first thought is that this cannot be real. Why is someone acting out as shooting? Like what's happening? Like it just, why thought it was fake even though that makes no sense, but how could
It be real?
Was he coming behind us?
“I mean, the thought was he might be coming down also.”
My mind went to like 9/11.
This is what it would have been like, like the franticness of running out of the towers. On the day of the shooting, Ariel Altman told reporters that Neil asks you what stood about four feet from her. She had watched as he gritted his teeth and aimed his weapon at James Davis's back and kept firing down at him, even after James had fallen to the floor.
She described Neil as "completely still," his only movement coming from a striker finger. It looks very serious, very angry, she told reporters. She had his arm extended, just firing and firing. 15 minutes after the shooting, her ears were still wrinking from the shots.
The pandemic and the screen.
The most reporter, Frankie Edozien, in several others, had barricaded themselves into a large meeting room, just off the chambers. I called my editor, just very quickly and I said, "I don't know what's going on, but I've
“just witnessed the shooting and city hall and I think someone's dead."”
And the room with Frankie is Betsy Gottbaum, the city's public advocate. Public advocate was the highest ranking person in that room with us and she began comforting everyone and telling people to everything is on the control, the NYPD is here. Betsy Gottbaum is in her mid-60s, just the third woman to ever hold the position of public advocate in New York City.
Myth of fear and the chaos, she's a calming presence. Some of the people in the room are clearly still in shock. These people were hysterical, you know, kind of on the floor arriving, so I became very
very, sort of trying to help everybody and I always carry aspirin and Zanix to my brief
case. And I just remember by saying, "Hey, to this particular woman who was completely hysterical, can I give you something to help you?" I broke in Gavager and she took half, we got to go on a jail for that, but it mattered. I just remember that vividly.
Paramedics have arrived, along with more police and swat care in the media. I got to the window to look out and of course it was Mass's Chaos and I saw an ambulance in the structure, take somebody out, soak it up that it was changed and people fed it immediately. The local ABC news affiliate supporting live, filling in details as they get them.
Here is some of the latest information that we have just gotten and we understand right now that Brooklyn, Councilman, James Davis. Brooklyn, Councilman, James Davis is among one of the two victims. He has apparently been shot twice in the chest, now this is according to a police officer at the scene.
Brooklyn, Council Member, Yvette Clark, was just outside the chambers when the shooting started. She ran out of the city hall building door offices across the street. She's watching the live coverage on local news.
“That's how she learns about her good friend and colleague, James Davis.”
We have some very sad news to report. We have just had a confirm from two sources that James Davis has died. Brooklyn, Councilman, James Davis has passed away. Certainly, this is very sad news, very devastating to family friends and to all New Yorkers. I just cried and cried and cried and I just, I mean, I couldn't get it together because
James and I were so very close. And every time I hear about gun violence, I think about Jamesy Davis, the type of gun violence that we've experienced in urban settings like New York, Chicago, Detroit, all of that is what James stood against. That's what the irony about his death was.
For Yvette Clark, this connection between Jamesy Davis and gun violence, it isn't just because of the way he died. Yvette and James were born in the same hospital around the same time. Their parents were friends. Now they were both part of the Black political scene in Central Brooklyn and it served
Together on the city council for the past year and a half.
Yvette knew what mattered to Jamesy Davis, that gun violence was his single most important
issue as a politician. At the same day, James had been planning to introduce a bill at the state of meeting about violence in the workplace, but violence had found him instead. You know Roldell, the writer who thought I'd Willy Wonka, Matilda and the BFJ, but did you know he was also a spy?
Was this before he wrote his stories? I must have been. Our new podcast series, The Secret World of Roldell, is a wild journey through the hidden chapters of his extraordinary controversial life. His job was literally to seduce the wives of powerful Americans and he was really good at it.
You probably won't believe it either. Okay, I don't think that's true.
I'm telling you, okay, that was a spy.
Did you know Dahl got cozy with the Roosevelt? Play poker with Harry Truman and had a long affair with a congresswoman and then he took his talents to Hollywood, where he worked alongside Walt Disney and Alfred Hitchcock before writing a hit James Bond film. How did this secret agent wind up as the most successful children's author ever and what
“darkness from his covert past seeped into the stories we read as kids?”
The true story is stranger than anything he ever wrote. Listen to the secret world of Roldell on the I Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. In 2023, former Bachelor Star Clayton Eckerd found himself at the center of a paternity scandal.
The family court hearings that followed revealed glaring inconsistencies in her story. This began a years-long court battle to prove the truth. You doctor this particular test twice in silence, correct? I doctor the test once. It took an army of internet detectives to crack the case.
I wanted people to be able to see what their tax dollars were being used for. Some like the greatest disinfectant. They would uncover a disturbing pattern. Two more men who'd been through the same thing. I'm Stephanie Young, this is LoveTrap.

“I think people are kind of sleeping on Texas.”
Words are suggesting that UCLA is the number one challenger to Yukon, and that right after that would be Texas. As you see, it's so deep and so thick and just about everything, I really is annoying. So it's UCLA, Texas, South Carolina, LSU, only once I could possibly upset Yukon. On Flagrant and Funny, we're giving our unfiltered takes on the biggest moments, the

Councilman, Hiram Monterey.
Still was wrestling with myself because literally right before he got shot, I was talking to him. Minutes before I'm talking to James. Inside City Hall, there's police officers, there's metal detectors, there's undercover intel cops, the mayor is there, the public advocate is there, 51 members of the City Council. You're not going to find a safer place in New York City.
Amazing. So, I went to the hospital. I was the only council member that I know of when no one else went. Once or like James Davis had been a cop before he became a council member. He saw a hat because that one of the captains that was there on the scene was a friend of mine.
“Captain Freddie Maldonado and I go up there and I said, Freddy, what's up?”
He just shook his head. He says he's gone, Hiram, he's gone. I cried and then I asked to see James and the captains spoke to the doctor and they let me see him. And they, I remember, the eerie sound of the unzipping of the body bag. And then I saw the holes in James' body.
I think to some degree, I was still in disbelief until I saw him. Then I saw him and he was gone. I think his mother was on the way there and not sure if his brother had even got there. My brother and I was doing something called family day fashion upon where we put on a fashion show in the park.
James Davis's brother, Jeffrey Davis, is working with an after school program in Brooklyn, which is house at a local middle school. And he and his brother James are organizing events for young people in the community. So I was going to pick up the flies and I had a child leave with me and we drove down town lunchtime and when we came back to the school, my or my colleagues were in tears.
And they just looking at me and I was wrong. What's matter? No one said anything.
“Tears are rolling down the eyes and then one said, your brother and I said, what a brother?”
Your brother. They said, "I'm getting a car and go to City Hall." Jeffrey's colleague, a young woman who driven him to downtown Brooklyn, offers to take him into Manhattan. In route to City Hall, she turned on a radio and I heard on the news, Caltsham and James
Davis has been fatally shut. They're both stunned. This news has a terrible finality to it, and Jeffrey in the passenger seat is unable to move
past one single crucial word.
My colleague, looking at me like this and I'm saying, what does fatal meet? I'm in a traffic. What does fatal meet? When they say fatal, what does fatal meet? She didn't want to respond and I jumped out of the car.
They're in downtown Brooklyn on a busy street approaching the bridge. There's traffic all around them at a standstill. Helicopters were overhead and people are rushing and talking and I was asking cars what does fatal meet? What does fatal meet?
And this is strange with now, and I seen a police officer in his car and I said I'm Jeffrey Davis. They said something happened to my brother in City Hall. They said, "Fatily shut," he radioed in and said, "All right, follow me." And they put the sidelines on and everything.
With the silence blaring, the police clear traffic out of the way and they race across the bridge. But the police car doesn't lead from the City Hall instead they arrive at downtown Beacon Hospital.
When I arrived there, there was and pneumonia, the news cameras, people were ...
crying, dozens and dozens and dozens of fleece officers were in the front. The bridge was closed off, the streets were closed off, helicopters across from the hospital entrance, news cameras, and reporters have assembled. When each 30 cameras, all across the street laughed up, I'd pay the no-mind I just went in the hospital.
Police in hospital staffs start to lead Jeffrey to a small room off to one side. They have bring him here now, they said this is his brother and right there in the lobby I collapsed.
James Davis is one of four siblings, but he was always closest to this younger brother
Jeffrey. My brother and I, we are 17 months apart, so we were raised like twins, bump beds, same
“toes, that's how they raised us because we were there close in each.”
Jeffrey took us to where he and James grew up, a modest forest story building on Brooklyn Avenue in Crown Heights. This is a four family, we were downstairs in the house plot, as children, as we got older, he had his apartment and I had mine. The Davis family moved here in 1971, they lived on the ground floor, later, James and
Jeffrey each took the apartment upstairs, in 2003 they both lived on the third floor, across the hall from right now there. At two or three o'clock in the morning, we was going to hallway and when the day is over,
we can always meet the middle like this and hash out how the day went and strategists
is so forth. There's a little.
“Jeffrey remembers their calm, height, and they rehearse almost, I'd deal like.”
We've got to experience a lot of wonderful things from Crown Heights, you had Easter to talk with it, we had this benches, people playing chess and checkers, we've worked to Kingston Avenue with this restaurant, ice cream palace, and then the same thing with no street Avenue. Their father was the Corrections Officer, their mother was a nurse and politically active,
taking her boys to protest and demonstrations from an early age.
So she's to go to Washington DC and bring us along five, six, seven years old at the
Zee Norma's rallies, looking, observing, seeing all the posters in the size, so we've been around that a whole life, indirectly training us though. Jeffrey sees these early trips as the foundation of their political education, particularly for James. It's almost like a musician.
“If the parents see that you like music, they'll bring home the guitar.”
They've seen my brother, they've seen the direction that he was going, and they just kind of fed him along with it like this. James clearly had ambition. While he was a student at Pace University, he qualified for the New York Daily News Golden Gloves Boxing Tournament.
In coverage of the bout, the announcers are amused, but also maybe a little impressed that this 25-year-old believes he's bound for high-office New York City. As time went on, James's sense of the road ahead evolved. He saw a series of steps rising to greater and greater heights. Jeffrey believes it to this day.
He was definitely on his way to the White House, definitely. He's going to do the Mia, Congress, President, definitely. In the late 1980s, not long after that Golden Gloves fired against Andre Terminator Coles, James opened the church in their building on Brooklyn Avenue. It was in the basement of this building, small, ten people, and some days nobody comes,
and then you can hear him down and preach into the walls, as though there was a thousand people he was preaching to. But for all this ambition and faith, the world around James could be a hard place. On the streets of Brooklyn and Queens, in Howard Beach, in Bensonhurst, in Inmanhattan, New York City's timers with racial attention.
A young black man is beaten to death by a mob. The black teen is shot by the NYPD. Five high school students are arrested and prosecuted for assaulting a white woman in Central Park. They're innocent, but the only comes out much later.
James gets his own personal education, one evening on the street in front of his house.
The mom's car was right in front of the door, and at that time my brother was...
He went outside with a couple of parishioners to get in the car and about three or four
“patrol cars pulled up on him very aggressively, and you know, freeze and took the guns out.”
I was a victim of police brutality, and right in front of the house here. That's James Davis. He spoke about the experience of the writer Henry Goldschmitt in 1997. You know, two white cops assumed that I was still my mother's car, and they've seen that it was a Jewish neighborhood, and they've seen me as a black man, and they put guns
at my head and slant my head on the back of the police car. The family sees what's happening and rushes outside. I came running out, my mother, my father, we came running out to do it to tell the cops that this is a clerk car, and we were trying to tell them and they wrestled meat down and you get back freeze.
James is arrested. They drove him out to the 74th prison, they are in Crown Heights on Empire Boulevard.
Ultimately, they did their check and everything, and seen that it was my mother's car,
and they let him go, but it was humiliating, and embarrassing for a young minister. He was very upset, very angry, and terrified, all at the same time, and we come from a
“bitch family, remember this is a little class, community, so the neighbors are looking,”
and it was a complete embarrassment. But James found a way to reframe this incident for himself. I took a negative and turned into a positive, I became a police officer, and became a police academy, and struck the entrain those cops, kids, that did that incident to me. He told Jeffrey that he would find a way into power in the city, and do something good
with it. He said, "I want to become a police officer to make change within the police department." I met him April 30, 1991. Lloyd Piper's barricade, James Davis's former partner on the 4th, and the friend. He came up to me, extended his hand, and I was kind of thinking about it, but he had
a bright smile, and he goes, "I am James, E Davis, and if you know James, you know
he always put the stress on the E."
James had been a corrections officer in Microsoft, New York City's largest jail, but
“it didn't feel like the right place for him.”
He wanted to reach people before they ended up behind bars. He wanted to be out in the streets. He met Lloyd when they were both students at the police academy. After graduation, the police department gave them their first posts. I was sure enough we were assigned to the same place, Transit District 32.
District 32 is located on Franklin Avenue in eastern Parkway. This is James' own neighborhood, Crown Heights, you didn't live at the dashboard outside the metro area. Haslobock. Yeah.
There were times on patrol, he could check on his mother. As a transit cop, he was assigned to a subway line that he and his new partner, Lloyd Piper'sburg, who James nicknamed Pipes, would ride on it. This is a PM to 4am, so you got some serious news riding the trains. The games were serious.
You'd approach them, but you guys will swap, man. Just so he came at them, you let him know I can teach your language. Often I'm going to admit I was a little bit uncomfortable with it, but I watched him work as magic so often that I just came to realize that this is his gift. They also have a child of the streets that run under the elevated tracks of their train line.
One day we're in the car, we were here over the radio, they had been a stabbing, and James looks to the angles, pipes us both, and I'm like, "But James, we're assigned to here." But we have to stay under the two-in-the-three line. James convinces Pipes to leave their post and try to find the assailant with the knife.
They drive slowly around the neighborhood, farther and farther from their assigned route. And it disruptions the guy who comes over the radio. James says, "Boy, look, that's him." So we jump out, show us, we find a knife in his pocket. James is like, "We've got a car now, we've got a car."
And I'm like, "We're all post, it's so we put it over the air, and some unit arrived." I was like, "You guys, you can take it to the guy this is the knife." There's no reason for a transit car to have been out there.
If James had wanted the glory of making this first bigger rest, his partner was not going
to be in the rules to get it. We jab back into the car, and James did not speak to me for probably four days. He's in fury with me. And when we started talking again, he says to me, "Your pipes, the job will explain us
Being there.

S and C is so deep and so thick and just about everything, I really is annoying. So with UCLA, Texas, South Carolina, LSU, only once I could possibly upset you con. On Flagarin and Funny, we're giving our unfiltered takes on the biggest moments the conversations everyone's having, so whether you're bracket is busted or you just want the latest on the tournament.
We got you. Listen to Flagarin and Funny with Carrie, Champion, and Jamel Hill on the I-Hart Radio App, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Presented by Capital One, founding partner of I-Hart Women's Sports. Hey, I'm Nora Jones, and I love playing music with people so much that my podcast
call playing along is back. I sit down with musicians from all musical styles to play songs together in an intimate setting. Every episode is a little different, but it all involves music and conversation with some of my favorite musicians.
Over the past two seasons, I've had special guests like Dave Grohl, LaVe, Mavis Staples, Remi Wolfe, Jeff Tweedy, really too many to name. In this season I sat down with Olesia Cara, Sarah McLaughlin, John Legend, and more.
Check out my new episode with Josh Grohl and you even did it at the Phantom a...
Yeah, I would definitely the Phantom and not.
That's so funny. So come hang out with us in the studio and listen to playing along. On the I-Hart Radio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. When Lori Piper's birthday care is about the shooting over the police radio, he rushes over to City Hall.
Your flash is as bad as far as talking to a cop outside the gates. One day, the cop just started talking, it was like a faucet and he said, "Yeah, it was a shooting and the chambers and a lot of kids were up there.
“I think the two or three people got hip and the councilman was one of them."”
Might just try to feel tight because I didn't hear what I wanted to hear, which was there
was a shooting and James E. Davis took their die out. He then told me that there was still looking for the shooter and he looked at me and he told me, "You're not wearing a vest, are you?" Just saying that stuck in my mind was, "Do he just say the shooters on the loose?" "Post what you're the one who'd have done it to the train station.
I was so good at the train station, either by the hall on the city hallside on roadway, or possibly on the chamber streetside by the gate." Lori does now a playing close cop working for the police commissioner.
He hardly ever wears a bulletproof vest.
He was trying to suggest you maybe need to zest up. At this point, I was angry and my thoughts about mine was, "Yeah, I don't need to be careful at him. He needs to be careful at me, you know, maybe it's sure he isn't over yet." I asked for me senior James's condition and he said, "It didn't, but they didn't take
him out of here in the ambulance and he didn't look too good to have Lloyd Rogers the week been hospital, on his way there, the lieutenant calls. He says to me, "Very compassionately, I'm sure if he don't go in until I get there." The lieutenant's call confirms what Lloyd is already feeling is bad. Outside the hospital, cameras and police are everywhere.
The lieutenant arrives and they head in together. I'm going to go into the ER, lieutenant says to me, "We're going to pass your friend's study, do not look at him, and I said, "Okay."
“To this day, I regret that I listened, I wish I would have looked, but I think they didn't”
want me to be traumatized because this isn't just a shooting victim. This is my shot. But in my provincial vision, I could see him there. So we pass him and people are crying and everything else. Don't film in Larry's, he broke his also at Beacon Hospital.
He was in the chamber when the shots went off. He's with another council member, Maria Bias, who's hyperventilating. Maria Bias, she just couldn't take it, so afterwards he asked me to go with it to the hospital. There, he sees James Davis's mother, Galma. She came running into the hospital, and she looked at me, because she knew me.
I just had to turn away because I didn't want to be the one to tell her, because she just left it with, and I just, I couldn't do it. We're asking with Jeffrey, is Jeffrey on the way that type of thing. And the office of he was there in the grieving room, and he has his hands almost like he's ringing his hands as if he's a part of lay down an olium or something, and he goes
her right. So what do we got here? And he's ringing his hands, and Vias was obvious, but no one could actually say anything but where he asked the question, but that moment I had realized just how much I could ask his brother, he was, in terms of his presence, he's not a huge man, but he commands
a room.
“So when no one answered him, he got little deterred, and he goes, so what do we got here?”
I'm looking right at him at this point, watching the change come over him, it was that the strong clouds gathering, and he goes with the fuck is going on here, and then he starts
To really listen to what the fuck is going on, and his arms are in the air, a...
people rush to kind of restrain him, I said I want to see him, and they said no, and I said
“I want to see him, so now my voice is quiet, I'm yelling, I want to see him, like this”
with my brother, he is furious, why happen to my brother, why happen to my brother, you get so out of control to my senior Romano, that's the grab him, some of the back, which is I'm Richard Romano's chest to restrain him, because it will play Jefferson, so I hate people, mounting your Robert Romano as a chaplain for the New York City Police Department. He's a big man, a barrel chested priest, a guy look like he's been a boxer or football
player, he just held Jeffery and saw him from behind on a bare hug, and it was his police
officer in uniform standing behind the chaplain, so Jeffery is wriggling out, he gets his
hand free, and he jabs his finger into the cops' chest right beside his shield, and he
“goes, how do I help with this happen, with you right there, you motherfuckers, you how, and”
this crowded room full of chaos and grief, Jeffery spots his brother's old partner, Jeffery looks at me, he goes, oh, practices here, okay, all right, practices here, and he found right down, there was a weird thing, he thought that someone on his side was there, the hospital staff lead Jeffery into a small room off the lobby, my mother was there ready, but I just looked into the eyes and said, well where is he, and he said, you can't see him, the police officers
and the doctors and so far that said, I want to see him, Jeffery is told to wait with this
mother, a few minutes past, and then a hospital staffer returns and takes him back to the ER to see his brother, James E. Davis is laid out on a gurney, he had the bus name in this mouth, a thing that you do oxygen with, and he just got a haircut, so he was clean, and I went that talk to him, I wrote this here, yeah, good here, and I said, you and I spoke about these days, the possibility of this happening, and for me to continue with the message
and to continue to go on, even now, more than 20 years after this day, Jeffery breaks down
“as he remembers it, and that's what happened, Jeffery gathers himself, feeling like”
everything is different now, that his life has changed forever, that took a deep breath and that's that I'm going outside, I'm going home, I went out the hospital, the police have followed me saying, no, we're going to drive you home, don't get on the train, and then that's for the media, got wind of who I was, and it ain't coming out, reporters and camera crews raised from across the street, 15, 20 cameras, surrounded me to the point where I couldn't
breathe, and he said I asked him questions, how do you think this happened, why do you think this happened, how can this happen in City Hall, Jeffery chair and tell us, that's what I'm concerned about, how could this happen in City Hall, I'm not afraid, how could this have happened in City Hall, somebody tell me that, Jeffery, who did it, Jeffery, who did it, I don't know who did it, the system did, must have been five or six roles of media, would say
microphones and cameras talking to me, and I was very upset, but I wanted to express myself about racism and the system, seeing the system killed them, and this kind of hate led to his death. But Jamesy Davis was not killed by an idea, he was shot multiple times, a close range in the balcony of the council chamber, by a man named Neil Ascue, who, for reasons I know, very much wanted him dead, that's next time on Rochak, Murder at City Hall.
