>> David:  GOOD EVENING, I'M
DAVID COMMON.
IAN IS AWAY.
THE VERDICT UPSET IS SUPPORTERS
BUT DA FONTAINE MILLER DIDN'T
SEE A LOSS.
A TORONTO COP IS CONVICTED IN AN
ASSAULT WHERE MILLER LOST AN
EYE.
>> I'M NERVOUS ABOUT THAT.
>> A NAIL SALON SHOW RISKS THAT
COME WITH REOPENING.
WHAT ABOUT MOVIE THEATRES?
A BIG WIN IN COURT FOR UBER
DRIVERS, BUT WILL IT HELP THEM
ON THE ROAD?
AND AS PRIDE MONTH HITS ITS
CRESCENDO, THE ROOT''S PRIDE
SHARES WITH BLACK LIVES MATTER.
THIS IS "THE NATIONAL."
THE TIMING IS COINCIDENTAL, BUT
NO LESS, MEANINGFUL, WITH ANGER
ABOUT HOW POLICE INTERACT WITH
BLACK PEOPLE AND CALLS TO CHANGE
THE SYSTEM.
A CRIMINAL TRIAL LONG UNDER
SCRUTINY CAME TO A MUCH-WATCHED
AND NEAR TORONTO TODAY.
MORE THAN THREE YEARS AGO,
DAFONTE MILLER WAS BEATEN UP SO
BADLY, HE LOST AN EYE AND A
TORONTO POLICE OFFICER AND HIS
BROTHER WERE CHARGED.
AT TRIAL, THEY ARGUED
SELF-DEFENSE.
TODAY, THE OFFICER, MICHAEL
TARIO WAS FOUND GUILTY OF
ASSAULT BUT NOT GUILTY OF
AGGRAVATED ASSAULT AND
OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE.
SOUTH KOREAN TARIO WAS FULLY
ACQUITTED.
IN DELIVERING HIS DECISION, THE
JUDGE OPENLY ACKNOWLEDGED THE
SYSTEMIC ISSUES RAGING OUTSIDE
OF HIS VIRTUAL COURTROOM AND
MADE IT CLEAR WHILE THOSE NEED
TO BE ADDRESSED, A CRIMINAL
TRIAL INVOLVING SPECIFIC
INDIVIDUALS, HE SAYS, IS NOT THE
PLACE.
JACQUELINE HANSEN HAS THE
DETAILS.
[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]
>> Reporter:  THERE WERE HIGHS,
LIKE WHEN THE JUDGE ACKNOWLEDGED
A DISTRUST IN POLICE COULD BE
UNDERSTANDABLE.
[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]
>> Reporter:  BUT WHEN HE
FINALLY READ HIS DECISION, A
SINGLE ACQUISITION OF ASSAULT,
SUPPORTERS OF DAFONTE MILLER
WERE CRUSHED.
>> I REALLY -- I AM IN SHOCK.
>> AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED, THEY
GOT AWAY WITH IT.
>> Reporter:  TODAY IN A VIRTUAL
COURTROOM, THE JUDGE REJECTED
EVIDENCE FROM BOTH SIDES AS NOT
CREDIBLE AND BELIEVED OFF-DUTY
OFFICERS HEARD DAFONTE'S FRIEND
BREAKING INTO THEIR TRUCK BUT
THE CHASE WASN'T AN ATTEMPT TO
ARREST MILLER.
THE MOST HORRIFIC INJURY MILLER
RECEIVED MAY HAVE BEEN PARTLY
SELF-DEFENSE BY THE TARIOS BUT
HE COULDN'T BE SURE.
>> IF YOU DON'T HAVE ALMOST 99%
EVIDENCE, IT'S HARD TO CONVICT
SOMEONE.
THAT'S WHAT THE PUBLIC HAS TO
RECKON WITH.
>> Reporter:  THE JUDGE HAD NO
DOUBT WHEN MILLER BADLY INJURED,
TRIED TO GET AWAY, MICHAEL TARIO
STRUCK HIM AT LEAST ONCE WITH A
PIKE AND AT THAT POINT, THE
RAZOR-THIN SELF-DEFENSE
EVAPORATES.
THITORONTO'S CHIEF OF POLICE MORE
NEEDS TO BE DONE.
>> I CAN'T DENY THIS MATTER WILL
HAVE AN INCREASED STRAIN ON THE
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN POLICE AND
THE COMMUNITY, SPECIFICALLY THE
BLACK COMMUNITY.
>> Reporter:  STILL, MILLER SAYS
HE'S GRATEFUL FOR THE SINGLE
LESSER CONVICTION.
>> A LOT OF MY BROTHERS AND
SISTERS ARE GOING THROUGH
SIMILAR SITUATIONS AS ME, AND,
YOU KNOW, A LOT OF TIMES PEOPLE
ARE DYING AND OFFICERS ARE
WALKING.
SO I DON'T FEEL LIKE I TOOK A
LOSS.
I FEEL LIKE WE TOOK A STEP
FORWARD.
>> Reporter:  AN EMPASSIONED
PLEDGE STILL SHARED BY SO MANY.

HOW THIS CONTINUES TO DEVELOP.

WORDS OF PEOPLE OF COLOUR,
WEAPON HIGH HIGHS HIGHSNIZING THE SPACE OF
SOMEONE LIKE WENDY AND FOR AN
INDUSTRY THAT PRIDES ITSELF ON

THIS IS A DAY AFTER MESLEY AND
THE CBC SAID SHE HAD BEEN
DISCIPLINED FOR HER USE OF THE
WORD ON THE CALL, AS WELL AS AN
EARLIER INCIDENT WHERE SHE SAID
SHE WAS QUOTING THE WORD O A BOOK, USING
THUSINGTHE N-WORD.
THEY'RE NOT SAYING WHAT FORM OF
DISCIPLINE SHE RECEIVED.
ON TWITTER, MESLEY SAID SHE USED
THE N-WORD IN FULL WHILE QUOTING
ANOTHER JOURNALIST AND THIS WAS
MY MISTAKE, FOR WHICH I
IMMEDIATELY APOLOGIZED TO MY
COLLEAGUES ON THE CALL.
SHE NOW SAYS SHE HAD NOT DEVOTED
THE JOURNALIST DIRECTLY.
SHE SAID SHE NEVER INTENDED TO
USE THE WORD AS A SLUR BUT TO,
QUOTE, SHARE AND EXPOSE AND
OUTRAGE AMONG THIS MUCH-NEEDED
WITH RACISM.
WALKER DECLINED AN INTERVIEW AND
FELT THIS ISSUE WAS ADDRESSED
BECAUSE THERE WAS A BLACK PERSON
PRESENT TO HOLD PEOPLE
ACCOUNTABLE AND ADDED THERE'S
NEVER A CASE WHERE WHITE
JOURNALISTS CAN USE THE FULL
WORD SAYING N-WORD IS
SUFFICIENT.
