So I don't know how, you know, how much in agreement we are or if there's any disagreement in there. Let me, let me say this. There were officers in that hallway who knew or should have known. There were victims in there that were either being killed or dying at that point in time. The expectation, the standard was they do everything they can to protect those lives. They did not do that. They failed. (18:45–18:55)
