Credit Card Transactions and Phone Records of me driving from las vegas. But could this little card hold the key . That was just A Shot In The Dark. Absolutely. Was he a calculating killer or was his lifestyle on trial . He made mistakes, but that doesnt make him a monster. Was there one more card up his sleeve . It goes back to him thinking ive bluffed some of the best. The player. Hello and welcome to dateline extra. Im craig melvin. In this hour the story of a Double Murder that was shocking and puzzling. There were no witnesses and few clues. The victims, a respected couple. Their son, it turned out, played poker for a living. Could that lifestyle have had something to do with the crime . The case was a mystery until prosecutors looked again at bloodstained evidence originally gathered from the crime scene. Could that be the key . Heres keith morrison. Not perfect, of course. What is . Ernies mother, the devout mormon, did not approve of his poker playing, apparently. Even though e
Former u. S. Attorney. Julia, this is your reporting. Youre part of the team at nbc news that discovered this approach. What more do we know about it . Lawrence, on the one hand it seems obvious. We know two weeks ago special Counsel Robert Mueller delivered a scathing indictment of 13 Russian Hackers not just hackers but influencers. Those were people able to get into social media and influence the way the election was being talked about to sow some distrust in the process. But what we have thats significant here is that a lot of information has recently been turned over to Robert Mueller from the Intelligence Community. This is information that includes the electronic signatures, malware the methods i dont think so. Theres never been a precedent for the United States indicting an elected foreign leader, even a country we dislike like russia. So i dont think were going to see that. I think its important to focus on the significance of this development. These wikileaks, these emails w
Those guys in pennsylvania and West Virginia will not help him. The kids are coming to washington in two weeks. Maybe a million of them demanding something be done. He cant hide in the white house bunker when kids and teachers say you have to do something. At that 340e789 it, hope hicks, his most loyal person walks. Theres a lot there. Youve seen the unraveling of the power structure. Veteran republican operatives, seasoned Military Figures and the family and inner circle. Hope hicks, if josh rafael. Jared kushner is supposed to carry on our most secret sensitive negotiations . Hope hicks leaving, josh leaving. On guns, republican feeling the heat. Rick gates turning on him, flynn already turning on him. Manafort about to. On guns the republicans are feeling the heat. Suburban voters in places like philadelphia want to see gun control. Republicans know the nra gets base voters to come out. They need to show some movement. Thats why you saw the president today trying to show movement. H
Certainty and predictability. Thats the best way to make business decisions. Having the president make this controversial announcement, then indicate right away they may or may not be committed to it is not the kind of certainty Corporate America is looking for. Those are some of the broader impacts. Whats the potential impact inside his own administration, and for his own Press Secretary who has to go out and defend a policy shes not sure is etched in stone . Obviously shes in an impossible situation. I think what it does inside the white house, its corrosive to any effort to put in place a process to make decisions. Because people know that the Decision Making process is precarious at best, that theres never a final decision thats made and theres an opportunity to influence it at a variety of junctures or to go in and intervene with the president at the last minute. It means theres no coherent process in place and the result is you have decisions that are halfbaked at best. This has
Disciplined or removed from office only by the personal action of the Attorney General. But according to the white house, the president has been advised he, he can terminate Robert Mueller all by himself. Does he believe he has the power to fire Special Counsel Robert Mueller . Certainly believes he has the power to do so. Most legal experts believe he would have to order Deputy Attorney general rosenstein to fire mueller and corefuse. I know a number of individuals in the Legal Community and including at the department of justice said he has the power to do so but i dont have any further announcements. They told me, ive asked. They said its rosenstein oversees is the Special Counsel and only he has the power to fire the Special Counsel. Again, weve been advised that the president certainly has the power to make that decision. I cant go anything beyond that. Weve been advised the president certainly has the power to make the decision. To be clear, the warrants that were executed agains
