earlier during the trial about the beating that he received at the hands of his attackers. the jurors were told today during the judge's instructions that the first-degree assault charge on mr. petit was reduced to second degree. there is no word on why that happened, there continues to be a gag order in that case. that doesn't make a difference, the death penalty is still on the table and doesn't have anything to do with that charge. jurors are going to be given over 200 pieces of evidence, including the crime scene photos, chet owes of the burned out bed and the charred remains in the petit home. they say the flames were so hot and so high that they couldn't even get into the home to help those women, to help the mother and the daughters before it was too late. again the jury -- as soon as we see the evidence go into the jury deliberation room that's when deliberations will occur. we've got a producer inside to let us know the second they start deliberating. we'll bring that to you when it happens. jenna: so many of our viewers want to know the outcome of this
