to go over. as adam points out, we should know coming up in roughly about 18 minutes that the verdict is in. again, the jury is back. we ll know what their verdict is in the dzhokhar tsarnaev trial coming up in about 14 minutes from now. i want to two back to our conversation as we ve been following this breaking coverage out of south carolina as well where the mayor and the police chief have just given their statements about the death over the weekend of 50-year-old walter scott and the ensuing charge and arrest for murder of the 33-year-old police officer involved in this shooting. the big question for many people looking at this is whether or not this officer would have been charged if there wasn t video capturing the incident that led to the arrest of the officer. the charging document and the incident report that we have reverend rivers, is not factual when we look at that video. you said you were meeting a week ago today about transparency. is this the proof that you need the inc
