me. you asked aaron to look you in the eye, didn t you? yes. and he did, didn t he? yes. and you asked him if he was involved and he said no? that s correct. and you wanted him to be straight with you, didn t you? yes. and you wanted to be straight with him, correct? yes. and you told him you would support him, didn t you? yes. and aaron told you he had nothing to do with this, isn t that right? he said he was innocent. he said he was innocent, joey jackson, dan shorer. jump in on this. if he s hugging and kissing this guy like he s family and says, look me in the eye and tell me if you had something to do with this or not, can t this cross for both sides of this trial? always does, ashleigh. it depends upon we as lawyers get the same information but we spin it differently.
limitations in my lie, definitely over 30 years when i did it. guys, thank you for that. i can t believe watching robert kraft walk into a murder case and thinking, that poor man, mortified that he s involved in any of this and has to do this kind of thing. my thanks to susan candiotti. dan and joey, stick around if you can. i don t know if you ve looked at your clock lately. but everywhere around the world, everyone s looking at a clock right now because the iranians and the americans and a whole host of other players have fewer than six hours left to come to terms with a very important deal. it s somewhere in the hole in the middle of that table and no one knows if they ll push away from the table with anything at all.
and here s how. this is robert kraft. this is someone who said after you told him the story that i ll support you, this is the person you hugged and kiss. why? because he s a great guy. he s not a murderer. he wouldn t do that. so certainly the defense you could hear in closing will say that. dan, on the other hand, from the prosecution s perspective, i m sure they ll say something different. why would a prosecutor put mr. kraft up there to say i hug and kiss this man, he s like family. he even said that in another sound bite that he s like family. that s just part of how it played out. but the big takeaway is that aaron hernandez is lying to robert kraft about where he was at the time of the murder. that shows tremendous consciousness of guilt. if you re accused of a murder and you re questioned about it, why would you lie if you weren t there? the fact that he says, i was at a club, when we know he was not at a club raises the big question the jury is going to consider. why was h
gays and lesbians who are not a protected class in that state. just last hour, governor pence said that he wants to, quote, fix the law so that it explicitly bars discrimination. but i want to hear what my lawyers have to say about that, because that s also a very big tricky piece of business. joey jackson and dan shorer are here. i kept listening and listening for about 30 minutes as the governor said that he wants legislation on his desk by this week to fix whatever ails this bill. but mostly he said what ails the bill is me, the media, apparently we ve grossly mischaracterized, we ve been reckless in our reporting and we have smeared the bill. legally speaking, how do you unsmear gross mischaracterization? i m a little confounded. there s a political answer. but i ll stay away from that and address the law. the devil is in the details of
so as a result, did you say this to the defendant? yes. and what did he say when you had asked him whether he was involved in this matter? he said he was not involved, that he was innocent and that he hoped at the time the murder incident came out because i believe he said he was in a club. he was not in the club. and i have some guests who will walk through this. susan candiotti is live outside the courthouse in fall river, massachusetts. here with me live, hln legal analyst, joey jackson, and former prosecutor dan shorer will weigh in on this one. first to you, susan. i can imagine you could have heard a pin drop in that courtroom because they sure kept it quiet that mr. kraft, who is legendary in the town where you are, in the state where you are, walked in to testify in a murder trial.
