"That's where we stayed at for 14 days, and that building was rocking when Katrina was blowing." "Thatwasterrible." "Abouteverywhereyoulooked around here, there were fires popping up like crazy." "Mostofthepeople around here thought it was just gonna be like any old hurricane." "When Katrina hit, it was like hell spilled over on earth." "Everywhereyoulooked was nothing but water as far as your eyes could see." "Thereareno words that could describe the fear that I felt for my brothers." "When they're in trouble," "I'm supposed to be there for them." "And so I was way in Eastern Europe the day it hit, and, boy, you know, I got on a plane and got here as quick as I could." "There was just, you know, two, three days, boy, where there was just no radios, no phones, no nothing." "Noonecanreallyexplain the depth and the magnitude of the devastation unless you were here living it." "Yep." "Uh-huh." "Okay, five minutes." "We just got a phone call from one of our narcotics teams that they're about to serve a warrant, and they're asking us for backup and assistance." "Sowe'regonna go meet up with them at a specified location, they're gonna brief us on what they have, and then from there, we'll go and hit the house." "ThankstoJeffersonParish Sheriff's Office, crime is way, way down." "But no matter how great our deputies are, there's always gonna be areas that are problematic, and we're trying to hit those areas." "Whatkindof drugs we looking for?" "Allright,crack." "Afewdaysago , we made a C.I. buy, and subsequently we got a search and seizure warrant." "The mission of today is to execute the warrant." "TheC.I.hasbought several times from this one individual that is dealing out of his house." "We're gonna go hit the house and hopefully get him and get a bunch of drugs off the street." "He'sa heavysetblackmale in his early 20s, and his hair is braided tight to his head." "And he goes by Chunky." "And when you see him, you'll know why." "The target location is a two-story multifamily dwelling." "It's apartment number one." "It's on the first floor." "We'vebeeninformed that the suspects are suspicious about police activity, ao we believe there probably will be a lookout here somewhere." "Iftheyseeuscoming, they're gonna alert everybody." "We're not gonna knock." "We're gonna go right in." "There's gonna be two adults in there." "And there's five children inside." "Eee."

"If there's anybody hanging outside..." "Take' emdown." "Let'smakesure they get taken down." "Allright." "So when we hit the house, there's gonna be five guys in the stack." "There'll be ram, long gun, and me." "I'll be third man in." "Intel is telling us that there may be weapons in the house, and we know that there's children there, so we're really hoping to be able to get in there and get everybody safe without any incident." "Thesubjectsareaware that we've been hitting this area hard in reference to narcotics, so they're aware that we could be coming at any minute." "Everybody is real nervous." "Ifheseesuscoming when we roll up, he could do anything." "He could stash any drugs, run for it, pull a gun-- anything could happen." "Once we make the turn by the track, it's gonna be immediately within a few seconds." "Allright, it's right up here." "Door's unlocked." "Getreadyto go ." "Idon'tseenobodyout."

"Ijustlovethe way  they put babies in harm way like this all the time, and then they start screaming at us." "As far as I'm concerned, it was a perfect operation." "The first thing we do is just try to make sure that everybody's safe, and then they'll come in and do the search." "Man,whentheseguys hide their stash, they hide it good." "Check this door right here." "Could be anywhere." "Isthisyourman ?" "Becauseifyoulove your family, man, you're gonna have to tell us straight up now." "You heard me?"

"We'vedoneallwecan here now, so narcotics will come in and build the case." "Everything all right, baby." "Everything cool." "Everything fine." "You heard me?" "Everything fine." "It's very difficult for us to see things like this where you have children in a house where they're slinging dope." "Children need good role models and a safe environment." "When there's narcotics being sold, it's usually indicative of neglect." "So we're just glad that the kids are not gonna be exposed to this for a while." "Got' emforyou,sir ." "Andwehope that this gentleman can clean up his act and be a good role model." "Seeyouall at the next one." "Let's roll." "Ifeelbadthatthis had to happen around these kids."

"You still playing your music?" "Yes,sir." "Today we're here to see Eddie Compass, who was Chief of Police of New Orleans Police Department during Katrina." "We served together during Katrina and became best of friends." "Man, you're looking younger and younger." "I don't know what your secret is." "Well,I 'mstanding round these kids, man, standing round these kids." "Thesedays, Eddie Compass is reaching out to at-risk youth." "Yeah, boy, this guy here, if it wasn't for him, man, we wouldn't have made it through the storm." "Youknow,youcamein, and you worked with my guys." "I mean, you were in the field." "You were on the front line." "And you handled your business, you know?" "Like, my tactical guys, man, they had nothing but praise for what you did." "Thankyou." "You know, we did it together." "Oh,yeah." "Wecouldn'thavedoneit without each other." "Whatwe'regonnadotoday, we're gonna go in the ninth ward, where the hurricane really hit, where we was at, on the front line." "Yeah." "Thiswasone of the most lucrative and busiest areas in the lower ninth ward, where commerce was vibrant in the black community." "This is years later." "Andnothing'sbeendone." "Nothing'sbeendone." "SinceKatrina,goodkids in neighborhoods just like this are really struggling" "Because they've lost their support system." "Juvenile crime is way up, so Eddie feels like through a martial arts program, he can get some of these kids back, give them great opportunities." "WhenI think about martial arts, you're the first person I think of." "Thankyou." "Soifyoucan giveme a hand with kicking this off, you know, getting the kids interested," "I would really appreciate that, my brother." "I'mdefinitelygonnadothat ." "It would be my honor and my pleasure to do that." "If we can get kids involved in something positive, it will really cut down on crime, and that's what I'm all about." "ThisiswhereIsaw Jean Claude van Damme fall off a motorbike here going about six miles an hour." "He must've had 40 aides helping him." "Is that true he got in a fight with you?" "No." "It'd be like me squashing an ant." "Idon'trememberwhere." "I don't know if it was the Enquirer," "But I remember reading something about that." "Comeon." "You,Larry?" "Thoughthesaidhedid, like , a spinning double twist kick or something." "Comeon." "If he sees me, he runs." "Well,hesaidthathewhupped some Aikido ass or something." "I don't know." "Comeon." "WB,WB." "10-4." "Sothisareainhere  has become a real bad area." "A lot of the homes along here after Katrina have become abandoned and turned into crack houses." "Rogerthat." "The drug slingers, they all try to work in the shadows." "For as long as I've been doing this," "I try to be able to see into the shadows." "Just the way somebody looks up, the way he turns-- anything can give us a clue on what we got to do and how to do it." "Let'shitthemfirst,baby ." "That's an order." "Hit them first." "Okay,ween route to a hotel, and we had a C.I. inform us that they might be dealing drugs somewhere in one of the rooms over there." "AfterKatrina, some of these motels became havens for the worst of the worst." "We're not really sure what the motive of our informant is." "It might be that he's got an enemy in there that he wants to crush." "It might be that he's setting us up for an ambush." "We really don't know." "But the long and the short is, it's a recipe for something dangerous unless we're really on our toes." "We're gonna move in quickly and try to catch them off guard." "They're upstairs." "Comehere,man." "Come here." "Yo, stop!" "Get back here!" "Where you going, man?" "Come back here!" "Open the door!" "Let me see your hands." "Put your hands up high." "Weenroute to a hotel." "We had a C.I. inform us that they might be dealing drugs in one of the rooms over there." "We'renotreallysurewhat  the motive of our informant is."

"Put your hands up high." "Everybody out!" "Out the room." "Don't put your hands in your pocket." "Whatisgoingon?" "Turnaroundthere." "Thisistheroomthey 're supposedly slinging drugs, and when they opened the door, we saw crack pipes in plain view." "Out." "Out the room." "Findanything?" "Justpipes." "Justpipes,huh?" "That'sall drug paraphernalia here." "It was obvious that something was going on." "You just don't open up a door" "And when you see the police you run in and lock the door." "Cuz,whereyougoing?" "Come on up over here." "Put your hands up in there." "What you all doing up in here?" "Youallain'tgot nocrack up in there?" "Because it look like there's some crack up in there." "Look." "You see this?" "You know what that is?" "You know what that is?" "You know what that is?" "That's right." "Just so you know, we didn't fall off a turnip truck last night, you know what I'm saying?" "No,indeed." "Allright,that'sall ." "Putyourhands back on top of your head." "Intertwine your fingers." "Nowwalkbackoutside." "Somebodyhere got something that they ain't supposed to have." "You got any drugs on you?" "If it's in your pants and I find it in your pants," "I'm gonna make you very uncomfortable." "Yes,sir." "Whatyoufound?" "Well, that's a lot of crack right there." "1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9." "Nine rocks." "Nine rocks." "That's what I'm talking about, baby." "Wetestingthiscrack." "You mix these two together," "And if it turns blue, it's positive for cocaine." "We pregnant." "Whatdowe gothere,hoss ?" "That'stheguy that opened the door." "We believe it's his room." "We're gonna charge him with possession of crack cocaine." "The records check came back on this gentleman." "He had battery and resisting arrest warrants." "The male and the female came back clear." "They'll be free to leave." "1.2grams." "It's about $100." "Youfightingus allthe time." "You fighting the police." "Now, how that's cool?" "Hekindof thought it was funny tonight." "Yes,sir,he did." "You stop fighting us, brother, you won't be going to jail." "Gototheleft." "Watch your head." "Well,itseems like our informant led us to something good." "Got a lot of crack off the street." "The world's a better place for a minute." "Let'sgo." "Saddleup!" "Seey 'all at the next one." "All right, let's roll." "That was a good little deal." "That was a good little pop." "Yes,sir." "Two,three,four,five!" "Howyoudoing,sir ?" "It's a pleasure meeting you, man." "I'm a great, great fan of yours." "Mybrother,my brother." "SoI 'mherewithmyfriend Eddie Compass and his very good friend" "Karate Sensei Mr. O'neal." "Whocouldgetthesekids  more motivated than you to start this program out?" "So that's why we're so glad you're here." "Theyarecreatingprograms for the children to bring them away from the temptation of getting involved in street crimes and gang activity and narcotics." "AfterKatrinahit, it destroyed all of my schools, 13 of them." "And, you know, I was committed to coming back to the city to rekindle that, because in my mind, this is a time that it's needed more than anything else." "That'sright." "Everybody,let'swelcome" "Grand Master Steven Seagal to our dojo." "Give him a big hand!" "What do we learn in karate?" "Combo number one:" "Speed, power, and focus." "One!" "Two!" "Three!" "Backoveryourhead." "Okay." "See where it is?" "You don't want to be there." "I want you to get a little bit of angle so that it'll slide off and a little bit higher and a little bit out" "So it's more like this." "Everybodyhaveaseat." "SoI 'mheretoday to let you know how proud I am of Master O'neal and Eddie Compass for bringing you this opportunity that has been given to us by the masters." "These arts have been around for almost 1,000 years." "I promise you, it will turn you into a better person." "Yes, ma'am." "Iwas." "And believe it or not, I'm still shy." "Compass Sensei can say this:" "I can be very quiet." "I'll just go somewhere, and I'll sit off in a corner, and people will call me arrogant." "I'm not arrogant." "I'm just shy like you." "And I think the martial arts helped give me a lot of confidence, a lot of self-esteem and helped teach me respect for myself." "You're trying to conquer yourself." "You're trying to master yourself." "Thank y'all for having me." "Let'sgiveGrandMaster a big hand, everybody." "Soyouhearabouteverybody doing all this work to rebuild the infrastructure of New Orleans." "But to me, what's even more important is the work to help the children." "Most of these children have not had anybody who's reaching out to them and saying," ""I have something that I can give you" ""and help you with." ""and I'm not gonna disappear." ""I'm gonna be there for you." "I'm always gonna be there for you.""
