Officers in Louisiana will not be Charged.
KEILAR: We have breaking news. The Louisiana attorney general has decided the two white Baton Rouge police officers involved in the shooting death of an African-American man, Alton Sterling, will not be charged. In 2016, an officer shot and killed the 37-year-old during a struggle outside a convenience store in Baton Rouge. He was shot at close range while the officers pinned him down. Sterling did not display a gun during the struggle. Police say that he was reaching for one and a gun was recovered after he was killed. Sterling's death was caught on camera, and I do want to warn that you this is a very disturbing video.</s>KEILAR: Now, during a news conference just a few minutes ago, Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry said the evidence doesn't support a prosecution of the officers.</s>JEFF LANDRY, LOUISIANA ATTORNEY GENERAL: After a thorough and exhaustive review of the evidence, the facts that can be established beyond a reasonable doubt, the law and jurisprudence of the state of Louisiana and the obligations of prosecutors under the code of professional conduct, the Louisiana Department of Justice cannot proceed with a prosecution of either Officer Lake or Officer Salamoni.</s>KEILAR: Joining me now from Baton Rouge with more on this, CNN correspondent Nick Valencia. Nick, you talked to the family today. Tell us about that.</s>NICK VALENCIA, CNN CORRESPONDENT: This has been an announcement that has been months in the workings here, months of anticipation from the local community. And unfortunately for those that are supporters of Alton Sterling, it did not come as a surprise that the attorney general decided not to bring charges, state criminal charges, against the two officers involved in the shooting. It was just a couple of minutes ago, Brianna, that the family of Alton sterling spoke to the media saying that they would get justice, but their justice is going to come, quote, from a higher power. I spoke to Sandra Sterling as well about the frustration among the family and the Alton Sterling supporters that three pieces of video, including individual surveillance from the SSS convenience store where that shooting happened, as well as body cam footage have yet to be released. We understand the mayor has that video in her possession and has had that according to the family attorney for the last several days. I asked Sandra Sterling, who's effectively the mother of Alton Sterling, who raised him as a young child, what that video would mean to her to see that video.</s>SANDRA STERLING, AUNT WHO RAISED ALTON STERLING: Shame on him and shame on him and his committee for making that decision that he made on Alton Sterling. And for all the people that say that Alton Sterling was a bad man and he should have been killed, shame on y'all for that. Because you know what? You all have kids, too. And to put Blane Salamoni back on the streets of Baton Rouge, you're putting a killer back on the streets. So you watch your kids at night. That's all I have to say.</s>VALENCIA: You may have noticed that Sandra is now in a wheelchair. That's over the course of the last two years. She's had a couple of strokes. The family attorney says the health concerns that they have are related to all the pressure and the stress that the family has gone through. They went on to say that the Baton Rouge Police Department is filled with bullies and that they will continue on with their civil lawsuit against the Baton Rouge Police Department and the two --
