You&#039;ll see that Ridgeway&#039;s statement is nothing more than him looking back reflecting on the day. He is now buddied up with a lawyer who is just trying to make a name for himself.

How are you going to actually reflect on that and say &quot;you know, I think we may have acted wrong&quot;? &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;With all of that chaos and shooting and distraction, how is 1 guy going to know what everyone else did in the string of vehicles? &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;With all of that shooting how do we know that this 1 guy is just wrong about what he thinks he saw and how he thinks he acted?  I trust the judgement of these highly trained security guards.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Also, radio transmissions recorded on that day proves they were taking fire.
