i am ainsley earhardt. thank you for starting your thursday weekend wicount down t the weekend with us. tahmooressi ordered back to prison. marianne rafferty has reaction from his lawyer and mother. good morning. after 101 days in a mexican prison for accidentally crossing the border with three illegally owned firearms this was his first chance to tell a judge his side of the story. two witnesses spoke ex complainings why it took so long to be delivered to a prosecutor s office. he found multiple irregularities in the story including a search order dated three-days before his crossing the border and 11 pages missing from the record. at this point i would say the irregularities are not to war aren t o warrant our full election
just fast track the consideration of the case that we couldn t get that done with a simple phone call. for the life of me, i don t understand why we don t. but, jill, good luck and actually, jill, if you get any news, call us, of course. i will. thank you. and tomorrow night, sergeant tam reissy s new lawyer, who jill just mentioned does go on the record. we will get the very latest straight from the lawyer in mexico. don t miss that tomorrow night at 7 p.m. eastern. straight ahead. you don t see this every day. the queen of england refusing to it take the throne. that s next. ghts or actions whie
they were messing with me. we are trying to get this case fast tracked. it s the right thing to do. i played tic-tac-toe with one of prisoners and he made it seem like the it was going to be the last tic-tac-toe i would ever play. he is an american hero and he needs to be out. i think this administration should pick up the phone. i m challenging him and i m asking him to do the right thing. so is the u.s. marine who did two tours in afghanistan and who is now jailed in mexico getting any closer to freedom? sergeant andrew tahmooressi has a new lawyer and new defense strategy. jill tahmooressi joins us. good evening, greta. you have heard from the white house at all or the state department? anyone to say we are trying? no, 26 days after we met the threshold of 100,000 signatures total silence, can i only assume they don t have anything to say. perhaps they haven t done anything, perhaps that s why there is total silence.
this was just about him keeping the weapons on his person? yes. he had all of his possessions in his truck. he had not yet found permanent housing in san diego. all of his possessions stacked pile in the backseat and when he entered mexico by accident, the first thing he said to the first person that stopped him was, i got here accidentally. please let me turn around. i have three guns in my truck. so he disclosed immediately and that s also evidence in a 911 tape that is recorded and online. can we hear some of the tape? we have it here, jill, so people can understand what his tone was and what he was saying. let s take a listen. i m at the border of mexico right now. my problem is, i thought the border by accident and i have three guns in my truck. and they re trying to possess they re trying to take my guns from me. so you re in mexico? yeah, i there s nothing i can help you with then, sir.
will acknowledge andrew s fight for freedom but i need 20,000 signatures by the end of today. happy to get that word out for you, jill. secretary of state john kerry was on new day. we discussed this. he said he is in communications with authorities there to make sure they have the proof they need to hold an american citizen. have you heard anything from the state department to validate their efforts? no, i have not. i know that mr. whitaker from the local u.s. service has at least, i ve reached out to him and yesterday when i found out and he sent an affidavit of mistreatment for andrew to fill out because this was new news to me and i immediately let mr. whitaker know that andrew was abused at the hands of the guards. all right. jill, thank you very much. we ll follow up with the state department. please keep in touch with us. let us know what s going on. we appreciate you giving us the latest on new day. good luck to you and your son. thank you. it is official. former
