to her and another to his wife and voters. watch this. did you get the sense he was ability e acting out on those phone calls? absolutely yes. were they real for you, as well? i think it was a fantasy for the both of us. martha: sure it was. of course it was. that s all. no big deal. we have the host of roper and windy city live and david webb the host of the david webb show on siriusxm patriot and cofounder of tea party patriot 365. roe, start with you. it is getting to the point where you don t know where to begin with this. the fact of the matter is this man who could be the mayor of the largest and most seriously important and politically important city in the america. if not the world. if vote is of new york are stupid enough to vote him in they get what they expect. she is young and experienced doesn t seem quite right.
across the street and finally get out of there. it is so extraordinary he was able to hold these women for 10 years in the basement of this house and i think it s evidence to that fact that when she had that one chance kelly: she took it. martha: pushed her way out the door and took it. so it s an extraordinary, awful, horrible tale and this man is getting the justice phase of all this. do we, are we bringing in guests here, folks? let s bring in criminal defense attorney keith sullivan and former prosecutor brian silber. keith and brian, good to have you here today. thank you. martha: keith, let me start with you. what s happening here? it looks like that he is facing over a thousand charges. his attorneys looked at the evidence. they determined the best way to resolve this, enter a guilty plea, spare everybody the trauma drama of a trial and so forth and this is a conference hearing which we re expecting that he may be pleading guilty.
his attorneys are asking for a plea deal that would hinge on whether the prosecutor would rule out the death penalty as a defense is demanding here. this is a court procedure in an effort to get the death penalty off the table before they head into the trial. the jury is seated in trial phrase of all this. ariel castro one would argue took a way a significant portion of the lives of these young women. he held them for 10 years in his basement, repeatedly raping them according to the charges that we have. beating them according to some of the other charges. in one case forting one woman tr babe built she had miscarriages due to beatings. michelle knight did. so the stories that go into what this man is accused of are so horrific. that is from the video that the three women made to say, thank you to everyone for respecting their privacy and boy, are they examples of, you know, an attempt at resilience and human spirit the likes of which we haven t seen in a while.
so, when it gets to a trial i think the prosecution instead of say we know what he did because her s here s a witness, they will go through the process of elimination, how it couldn t be anything but this man giving his wife cyanide over a period of time. martha: it looks pretty clear-cut. he bought half a pound of cyanide with a university credit card shortly before this happened. so we ll see. stranger things have happened though. mark, thank you very much. we ll keep an eye on it. thanks, martha. kelly: anthony weiner apologized to anyone on the receiving end of his lewd text-messaging. well, the latest resip yen is now speaking out. i feel sick about it. i m disgusted by him. he s not who i thought he was. kelly: why this woman says she feels manipulated by the new york city mayoral candidate. that is coming up. martha: and damning new surveillance video of aaron hernandez. this story continues to get
whether or not he was going to spend life in prison, wasn t really a question ever for them. so we re expecting to hear the details of the plea deal agreement that is been reached by both the prosecution and the defense and those negotiations have been going on for several months now and here this morning we just got word late yesterday that they would be scheduling this. this is of course 10 days before his trial is set to begin. and after that trial begins they could not reach any of these plea deal agreements. kelly? kelly: what about the three women? they are the victims in all of this and certainly we have been enlightened and inspired by their statements in the wake of all this but what are they saying now about the development in trial or in this case, rather. reporter: you can only imagine after 10 plus years in captivity, being held hostage, raped, beaten by that man, ariel cast very allegedly this is something their attorneys said they want the whole process to be over with
