Is Michael Bloomberg Sorry?

Since he launched his bid for the Democratic nomination, Michael Bloomberg has been trying to distance himself from the legacy of ‘stop and frisk.’ He says stops went down 95 percent by the end of his time as mayor.

Guest: Darius Charney, Senior Staff Attorney for the Center for Constitutional Rights
