Retired NYPD Detective Clashes With CNN Commentator During Tense, Face-To-Face Debate on Police [+videos]
Former New York Police Department detective Harry Houck clashed with CNN commentator Marc Lamont Hill on Wednesday as they debated alleged wrongdoing committed by police officers.
Hill was visibly shocked when Houck claimed that officers are arrested when they do something wrong, “like the officers in Baltimore.”
“You’re saying every cop who has done something wrong is arrested? That’s your honest belief?” Hill asked, looking the ex-cop right in the face . . .

“You’re telling me that every cop in America who has done something wrong [has been arrested]?” Hill shot back, adding that it’s “absurd” to think all officers who have committed a crime have been investigated or arrested . . .
The discussion initially centered around the now-concluded investigation into the death of 12-year-old Tamir Rice in Cleveland, Ohio, who was fatally shot by a police officer while holding a toy gun.
