Ahmaud Arbery's mother reflects on Trump meeting before he signed executive order on police reform
Wanda Cooper-Jones, the mother Ahmaud Arbery, said President Trump was "very compassionate" when he met with various relatives of victims of racially-charged violence behind closed doors on Tuesday, prior to signing an executive order geared toward reforming the country's policing tactics.

"Special Report" anchor Bret Baier played a soundbite of Cooper-Jones describing the experience of meeting with the president.

"I was very, very emotional throughout the whole conference," she said. "[Trump] was very compassionate. He showed major concern for all families. Not just one family, but for all families."

Trump tweeted later Tuesday night that Cooper-Jones is "A GREAT woman. Her son is looking down from heaven & is very proud of his wonderful & loving mom!!!" Arbery, an unarmed 25-year-old black man, was shot and killed in late February near the coastal city of Brunswick, Ga. Click here for more.
