myself. there could be some gamesmanship in there, listen, fernandez, we got her anyway, come to the table. i don t know that, that s purely speculation. one other thing here you don t hear very often is that the fact that the family thanked the media and you know, i feel that s very telling here. that tells me there was a lot of responsible reporting here, they felt you don t hear usually hear the reverse and so foxnews.com has done great reporting, other outlets have and i think it kept it front and center and also helped keep the pressure on and the resources in what sounds like a difficult case. jacqui: a lot of details that need to come out, see a lot of them in the indictment, but paul mauro, appreciate your expertise. thanks for coming on. john: a different topic now, economists are sounding the alarm on mortgage rates, predicting it could reach 8%.
