bill: and the prosecution s laid out the case that casey anthony s a pathological liar. we could get a verdict at any moment in this trial, but will the jury buy the story from the defense regarding casey anthony s father, george? here s the defense attorney during his closing argument making that case. we re not talking about fantasy forensics anymore. we re talking about cold, hard evidence. evidence that points to one person and one person only, and he can get up here and lie all he wants and dance around the truth, but the truth is the truth. bill: what about all the arguments now with dr. keith ablow? how you doing, doctor? good morning to you. i m good, bill, how are you? bill: good. i m going to play a sound bite from the lead prosecutor that sort of goes to your specialty about how you analyze why people react the way they react. before we get there, how do you
instructions. they have the charges with them and i honestly think it won t take as long as it might in other murder one cases. alisyn: you have been in the courtroom for much of this trial. is there any way to read the tea leafs and tell which way the jurors are leaning? it s a great question alisyn. and i have to tell you i ve been a judge, and a prosecutor, i ve tried these cases, there is no way to know. we have all seen trials where a verdict has come out that is shocking to us. the question really is, will they be able to explain why caylee died, how she died, and of course there is no obligation on the prosecution to show why, but i think they wanted to make sense. and i think this is a relatively clear-cut case. i mean put aside the experts, and the fact that george anthony is a child abuser, you know, that he s a man who had an
live, asap, it has been a long, extensive haul for all of those involved and jurors have been sequestered since the trial started 36 days ago and the trial has 8 alternate jurors and most cases have 2 and will cost the court system, $560,000, three minutes past the hour. alisyn? there are stunning developments in the sexual assault case against dominique strauss-khan. first, prosecutors reduced his bail, releasing him on his own recognizance after finding holes in the accuser s story and, now a top investigator is telling the new york post all charges against the former imf chief will likely be dropped, within days. here now, fox business network s ashley webster. how did the case fall apart so quickly? well at one point, of course, alisyn, we thought the indicates was strong, because of the speed with which the new york police moved forward but we understand, even if the charges are dropped in new york, strauss-khan now
the courtroom and, then we d all know, but the way it is set up now, if it is not audio and video, they can be asking questions about anything they want and we may never learn about that, right? that is correct. they could say, hey, we d like to go to the crime scene, i went out there, this past week and it was very telling, to see just how close her home was to the first area that you could dump remains, this is exactly where the remains were found. to me, it was painfully obvious when i went out there, what she did. and, perhaps, the jurors might want to go out there and see. bill: you talked about the can with the smell. hasn t the judge said they cannot do that? he has ruled on that, hasn t he. he has, but i don t know if he conveyed it to the jurors, but the foreperson, who runs the deliberations, like a chair person at a meeting, can come up with whatever they want. i have been shocked at some of the things they come up with. i got a question once in a federal trial, where th
down the hallway, right now, about an hour-and-a-half into deliberation for today, which followed a long day from yesterday and could come at any moment, good morning, everybody, welcome to america s newsroom, i m bill hemmer. good morning, i m alisyn camerota in for martha maccallum and the jurors really have their work cut out for them, since the trial started, in may, jurors heard from dozens of witness and have seen hundreds of pieces of evidence. bill: 400 pieces of evidence now, and the juror room with them now and the defense is trying to paint the anthony family as dysfunctional, even abusive, to casey. and, saying two-year-old caylee can and the s death was an accident, and her grandfather helped cover it up and the prosecution is describing casey anthony as one of the best liar they was ever seen or heard. so during an argument where the most well-documented liar ever seen in a courtroom, accuses everybody of perjury,
