prosecutors won this ca? >> reporter: the cell mate who testified, armando morales, basically said guandique confessed to the crime. we asked the jury, did you believe morales? they said that they had decided between them and among them that they would not address specific questions about their deliberations. but here's the analysis, and logically, you have to know that they did believethe jail house snitch, so to speak. because he is the only one and his testimony, the only thing that puts guandique at the scene of t crime. >> there were also a couple of women who said they were attacked by guandique. did the jurors talk abouthat testimony? >> reporter: they did. they were very impressed. they said that the testimony was very powerful. they said you couldn't sit in the room, the courtroom, and no be moved by these women who testified that they, too, were attacked by guandique in rock creek park in the year 2001, at about the same time and place in the same manner, grabbed from behind the way chandra levy was. >> the jurors went along with the strongest possible convictions. two first-degree murder convictions. how will that affect him at sentencing? >> reporter: this is first degree felony murder. which mean they believe there was an attempted kidnapping and an attempted robbery. in t course of those felonies, she was killed. so he faces the possibility, the maximum of life in prison. he'll be sentenced on february 11th. the judge in the case, gerald fisher, will hear from chandra levy's mother susan, perhaps other family members as well. and also give guandique a chance to speak if he wants any leniency in this case. because sentence ranges from 30 years to life. he would have to basically show remorseful. >> does he speak english? >> no. he has a translator. >> chris gordon, thank yo >> thank you, chris. other news, police release ad sketch to help catch the suspect who may be coected to three sexual assaults in montgomery coty. the most

you ain't seen nothing yet. >> exactly. i thought his response was even better. the bottom line is obviously a win is a win and that's the great thing. this team has some issues moving forward. it took more than five minutes for us to go down the laundry list of injuries,as mike shanahan was addressing those in his day after press conference. there are four guys i'm watching out for specifically. if they're out on the field next week against the vikings. the redskins going into yesterday's game with four starters inactive and seven players went down once they got on the field in tennessee. let's go back down there. the first one occurred before the game even started. it was running back chad simpson broke his foot in pregame warm-ups. he's been put on injure reserves. al, clinton pors reaggravated that groin injury. he had an mri. reports are buzzing he could be done for the season. we'll know more on weesday. defense took some hits toorgs. mcintosh suffered a groin injury. he will be reevaluated and we'll know more wednesday. and offensive lineman dockery. moving forward with injuries will be tough. ke shanahan said less experienced players, they'll have to step up. >> you were talking about it all the time. the first day we talked to players, we talked to th about losing people during the season. it will happen. sometimes it happens in bunches. other times, one a game, two a game. you have to be ready. so they are preparing themselves. you have to prepare yourself as if you're a starter each and every week. >> our necessary starters, you don't get reps in practice, you have to do most of your stuff mentally. and i think those guys a great job of preparing for t situation that came today. the offensive line, they had tackles playing guard. guards playing center. it was definitely a credit to those guys. thenthe coaching staff as well as getting those guys prepared. >> so you heard london fletcher talk about that offensive lie. you heard, it got so bad coach asked albert haynesworth if he wanted to get out there. the bottom line is this unit that has played so poorly in this season so fr with all the adversity in the world staed on their shoulders with so many guys going out, they basically played their best game of the season. let's go back to the feel where the bleeding really began. when a seasoned veteran, casey rabach went down with a knee injury in the first quarte so will montgomery took his place. stephen ended up in a position he's never played and it seemed like a recipe for disaster. something strange happene as a unit, the line played one of its best games of the season, sustaining drives and offering mcnabb time to make plays. he said they were running on adrenaline. >> as a group, we knew we had no one else left. we knewf we don't get it done, we won't win the game. we rallied together. listen to the guys. communication was really good, went really well. everybody on the same page. >> it is a sign to us that we would never give up. defense put us in a great position. we kept on fighting. a tough game to play, especially on the road. the crowd noise. i think as a team we came together and wanted to win. >> h did a great move to move from tackle to guard. and i thought will montgomery really did a great job of stepping up for casey. and when you have guys like that sometimes, you have to pull back. i thought we really brought our offense in and very aggressive, did a great job. just havin the trust and confidence to be able to do that even with the guyse had up front. and i thought as a unit, we were able to do a great job at third down. that's one that we need to clean up and get corrected. and we got ourselves down the red zone area. >> production really did make a difference. and donovan mcnabb knows very well the redskins will have their hands full as they prepared that. the viking are looking for a new spark under a w head coach. it will be their former coordinator. today minnesota fred head coach brad childress. he had had sained relations withal of his players, including brett favre who we found out will get to start on sunday. he will where in the division, a week after the eagles and michael vick man handled the redskins, it didn't look as pretty as they performed on monday night. they still found a way to take care of the giants and claim that top spot in the nfc east. let's go back to the field. they're looking for the third straight wichbl eli manning trying to keep the giants atop the nfc east. for you quarter. giants, knocking on the door. manning finds derrick in the back of the end zone for the touchdown. new york takes a one-point lead. 17-16 early in the quarter. michael vick knew that he would have to rally his eagles if they wanted to get the win. for you and one for the eagles at midfield. this boggles the snap. somehow he manages to control it enough to pitch it to mccoy. speedy and he does t rest. 50 yards for the touchdown. the eagles take the 24-17 lead. they're well on the way to a third straight win but eli would have another chce. just over three minutes to go. the giants with for you and six. manning tucks and ru for the first down. he dives and loses the ball when it hits the ground. since wasn't touched by an eagle, it is a fumble. derrek rovers and the eagles go on to bt the giants 27-17. moving on to nascar. everybody thought there was no chance that jimmy johnson would ever be able to win his fifth straight championship. they said he had a baby, became a first time father in the off-season. itould take up all his time. yestery jimmy johnson proved why he is one of the best drivers this sport has ever seen. we're down in miami. it was the dry, denny hamlin who entered the race with a 15-point lead. but trouble on lap 24. he gets bumped. goes spinning. denny hamlin, the last you know this he wanted to see, he only need someday body work. but hamlin said the car couldn't drive the same after that. finished 1h. johnson finished second in the race but earned enough points to win his fifth straight change-up. it was devastation for denny hamlin and kevin harvick, both guys who had a chance to win that championship. and jimmy johnson was just too good for t rest of them, guys. >> thank you. >> thank you, lindsay. coming up, an eternal flame burns for jfk butis words may be fading.
