we are live with the news grid live on air and straining online through you tube facebook live and it al-jazeera dot com turkey has cast doubt on key findings announced by saudi arabia's public prosecutor about its investigation into the murder of journalists inside the kingdom's istanbul consulate speaking in riyadh saudi deputy public prosecutor on said the events unfolded after a teen was sent to turkey in order to bring home whether by persuasion or by force so on so there was a struggle with kosofsky during which she was for strained and fatally injected with drugs before his body was dismembered he added that the order to kill came from the head of the saudi teen not the country's rulers saudi arabia seeking the death penalty for five of the eleven suspects charged but that. the main reason was to convince the victim to return home to the kingdom three teams or three branch

team logistics intelligence negotiations and in the morning of the fact the negotiating members found out it was not possible to convince them and that's why they resorted to force and he was killed at the turkish foreign minister. says his country is far from satisfied with this explanation and maintains the murder was premeditated he pointed to the dense that they have gathered showing that equipment for the crime was brought into turkey from saudi arabia he added that many questions are still on answered including the whereabouts of remains who had. jamal khashoggi was to russia slee mood in dismembered his reminds what even happened to him with are the remains would all be read will cut to pieces we don't know the answer to this question the saudi foreign minister of belgium paris has criticisms of this country's and best a geisha are unfair. those phones implicated in this crime will

be brought to justice and will be punished and we have also said that we will take steps to ensure that mistake like this cannot happen in the future there's a presumption of innocence until proven guilty this presumption for a strange reason has been turned upside down in this case if people don't think that we are serious about taking steps legal steps against people implicated in this matter then they should wait until the legal process plays out before rushing to judgment so we have full coverage inside and outside of turkey said because i was in the capital ankara white house correspondent kimberly halkett of standing by in washington d.c. we're going to start though with jamal i shall who is outside of the consulate and istanbul so jamal for weeks now and the international community in the u.s. turkey various countries have one it answer some saudi arabia they have not had a lot to say they had quite

a bit to say today tell us more about this. well indeed i mean richelle basically quotes one of the talkers sources that i've been speaking to at the highest level here they've been saying that they see this latest statements by the saudis that it shows that they have officially abandoned its policy of or the kingdom has officially been his policy of denial in favor of halt sued so even though they have been saying a lot a lot has been coming out of riyadh it is still perceived not to be the entire truth as to what's happened not least because there rang so many glaring inconsistency is in this latest version of this latest narrative in what has been a long line of narratives you know it's peppered with with a whole since the beginning of this. story broke this latest one rachel it sais that these people came in to as you mentioned to either convince you to return home peacefully or to force and while the question is why then would you send somebody

to chop up his body how would you be able to have those tools ready at hand if indeed that was the intention the question also to why there was a body double to try and prove at the core your true maybe fool people into thinking that john for children had left the building so so many questions with regards to that but what's more significance here is if you look at the kind of. messaging system that the saudi foreign minister had in his briefing essentially first was one that's was directed towards the charts where he said you know that this was something that was an internal matter that this was not going to be allowed for foreign countries to intervene into a saudi issue however he was trying to maybe one that's like saying that you know there are those who are trying to push for some sort of conspiracy to divide us and it was dark and saudis role to stay united the second was one with regard to the international community where a job is said you know saudi was so significant in importance and some were

providing economic stability through aisle sales and so forth but all. what he claimed was fighting terrorism and then there was obviously a very important the mystic message here which was that the saudi regime still stands very much by will behind rather crown prince muhammad been some man are completely rejecting outright that he had anything to do with it and that this was something that the saudi regime would essentially deal with internally so that's the made system for terms of the messaging that came from saudi arabia but it really still doesn't hold water so having said that there was this explanation a few weeks ago or an attempt at an explanation rather jamal that that the international community found laughable that this was an accident so now saudi has taken this next step and released more information that there's still a lot of questions to a lot of holes as you said is there any indication that they are going to roll out more information that we're going to hear from them again that they're going to present themselves to answer more questions well really i

mean that the answer to that lies both in ankara but also to some extent from watching some of them sure we'll hear about it from kimberly in a second or really in terms of from chuckie's perspective if turkey is able to put more pressure on or twist the saudis are more than the more pressure they put on the saudis the more forthright we've seen the saudis becoming as they have not been forth right voluntarily they've only done it's when evidence has been released to prove that they are lying or on when or rather and or when the international community has pushed them or there is very. worrying developments in terms of those who are seeking justice really a shell which is in the past i would hope for example the french foreign ministry claim that the saudis are now moving in the right direction again the forgetful question the inconsistency is in the saudi narrative they will forget the question about the fact that there was these phone calls that were made by modern look at the ringleader of this. is

a personal security conference muhammad and some money directly implicates and what least clearly rather implicates and indirectly though the crown prince and therefore the idea over in terms of where they were going to get on just to those questions depends on how much more evidence the turks have that they haven't released number one and two how unified international response will be and whether they will turn a blind eye to business interests and the interest between trumpet of influence on mon and other countries and the saudi royal family or will they push for justice to be served not only for drama official kunal family but also for international law and the rights of journalists and free speech as well that's all you laid out a lot of key issues there thank you very much live for us in istanbul let's go to senecas helen who is in ankara right now also something that jamal touched on is a lot of this is about pressure from turkey they have slowly rolled out the evidence that they have had there already pushing back and some of these explanations saudi arabia has given how is this playing out where you are.

well saudi arabia seems to be blaming turkey for not sharing old evidence that turkey has in hand this is what we understand from saudi foreign minister dr beyers presser which took place almost an hour ago have covered turkey's president our don said a couple of days ago that turkey has more evidence to be presented when necessary but what i have no know what i have learned from the official sources that saudi arabia hasn't made at all fishel requests for the foreign ministry's for any evidence and when the saudi prosecutor visited turkish prosecutor in istanbul he was able to receive the testimonies of the turkish employees in the saudi cold slate because their lawyer was with them so turkey actually believes that how saudi arabia treats turkish officials is actually

a bit disappointing because turkey has blamed saudi arabia for not call of rating for not cooperating properly but of course we have we held witness that the leaks to the turkish and international media over jamal has shook his case all those evidences leaked to the media have put saudi arabia to corner and to many to many people in its they believe they believe that turkey has more evidence and turkey will will actually presented it or maybe leak it to the media or international public and not as a whole but partially in order to in order to not to spend old the bullets because turkey doesn't want this incident to become a bilateral issue between saudi arabia and turkey just the opposite turkey believes that this is an international issue because the if vienna convention which is a binding in international diplomacy has been violated and

a very very important journalist has been murdered and that's what turkish president added on sad. and he revealed the details of this murder on october twenty three he said this is a political murder so the turks actually blamed saudi arabia for pulitzer for for comment saying a political murder but we also heard from the saudis today that they are hinting that they didn't say drek b. but they hinted that this incident or this case is being politicized by turkey but of course there are questions to be answered here because and there is a death sentence for five suspects who have been directly involved in this case so executive in these five people will it's contributes. on the on the fate of this investigation this is what people are discussing in ankara right now because in ankara many officials believe that this is also a way of silencing the only five witness of. jim murder also we don't know whether

to put to chief intelligence has been named one of the as named as the one of the. main actors in this crime if there is also the tony the crown prince's private advisor are also included on among those five people so and we there are details that we have never heard because solidarity for the turks for for the turkish authorities saudi arabia is conducting an investigation without sharing anything with turkey an international public so we will be hearing more about this case especially its more of hopefully a rights and thank you very much live in ankara and now we are getting some breaking news from the warders news agency which is supporting at the u.s. treasury is going to announce sanctions on seventeen the saudis for their roles in the death of democracy out here can really help it as in washington d.c. following all these and also what it what is it that we know about this can really

. yeah this is being widely reported here in the united states just breaking in the last few moments the treasury department according to a source with knowledge of this believes that there are set to be seventeen saudi nationals that will be sanctioned for their role in the death of his shows he and two of those names that are popping forward among those seventeen are saad tunney a former top aide to the crown prince as well as the saudi consul general muhammad be so this is certainly significant because we have been chasing reaction and not getting any response from the white house for hours ever since the report was released and this is certainly something that the president promised almost a week ago richelle when he held that press conference immediately after the midterm election saying when asked by a reporter what the u.s. response would be he said look we're working on this we're going to have something

within a week well a week came and went as of yesterday now we are hearing the reports that in fact the treasury set to leveled sanctions against seventeen saudi nationals and usually how this is unveiled is it pops up on its website treasury dot gov and that i'm sure is where everyone is watching very carefully the white house has not issued a press release just yet but certainly we have been watching for this for the last week and now it appears it is finally beginning to be unveiled kimberly based on the way the white house has reacted to and manage this and the past few weeks and donald trump specifically are there any clues any signs to how they are going to receive this information that came out today because there are still a lot of questions turkey is still not happy there are a lot of a lot of things that came out of this press conference today that completely just still don't make a lot of sense is there any indication that washington d.c. is still going to be ok with this or are they going to keep pushing. well

washington divided between congress and the white house washington the congress not going to be happy with this report certainly pressing and challenging this white house to go further than it has we have to see who these seventeen saudi nationals are that potentially are facing these sanctions. what we're we're hearing at least on those two names the fact that one is the former top aide to the crown prince is certainly significant but of course members of congress are looking for the highest levels of the saudi government to be sanctioned including the crown prince for the crown prince to be implicated and you asked about how the white house is kind of playing this out very carefully one of the signs that we saw in recent days came from the national security adviser john bolton when he came out publicly saying that that audiotape that capture the death of jamal hush ozy it has been

widely reported that this implicates the crown prince in that audio tape yet the national security adviser says that that is not what the united states has concluded with regard to that tape so it seems to be leaving open the possibility that the crown prince and the explanation from saudi arabia that he had no knowledge of this is beyond a reasonable doubt error or that there is reasonable doubt rather so this is again a white house and we have to watch to see who is named specifically in these seventeen potential sanctions that we hear are being leveled against those that the united states believes are involved in the death of jim. that's a list we're going to be watching very carefully because up until now it's been the feeling of congress that this white house is not doing enough that's why we've seen it taking its own action triggering the global magnitsky act we see rand paul a republican senator trying to press for a floor vote as early as friday to try and restrict arm stales to bahrain of course

closely aligned with saudi arabia it appears that the congress is pressing the white house but the white house has been up until now somewhat reticent to act can really help it with the latest from washington can really thank you. she can imagine there has been a lot of social media reaction to this our kyra just following that what he's saying. well pumps and surprisingly richelle the reactions differ depending on the language and this is a huge story every time a new development comes up and in english there are lots of posts with this sort of response this is one from reporter spencer ackerman who tweeted so mohamed bin selman is going to kill more people that's because saudi arabia has a track record of one of the countries which has the highest rates of death penalties another person who's been tweeting not going to see seconds upward to it isn't a vet unbelievable rather the saudi government now wants to kill five more people in order to excuse its killing of russia while he adds. that he rather president of

think tank color t.v. tweeted some very strong was calling it ludicrous that all of this could have or could have happened without a crown prince's knowledge and i as sweets is in line with the turkey narrative on this as well and other people have been tweeting about the four guys that's a term that's used for those who get the blame so as to protect others and joey are you his is given the context this essentially means that the sandy regime is willing to kill officials to avoid anything happening to and b s now of course in saudi arabia which there's always a trending from their worldwide one that's been trending today is public prosecution that's been trending much of the day you can just see their son's arabia you can see that it's quite red there which means that there's been a lot of activity on social media coming out of them the hashtag is mainly to thank the government for its transparency of course it's in support of as well of the inevitable punishment that's the rhetoric there and that's

a message that's being seen from pro saudi commentators like us and him no savior who has written here very honest transparent credible and unambiguous report by the saudi authorities regarding the individuals involved may be executed if found guilty will keep monitoring the reaction for you on social media as we always do but you can tweet me your comments so your thoughts on this story. it's. all right so i thank you very much ali ahmed is a saudi dissident he says the kingdom is trying to stage a cover up the well and trusts the saudi government because you very clearly changed the story many times in this case and because they i used it's impossible to accept this division into murder they have committed leave the saudi. core system does not meet the minimum internet standards for transparency or rule of law so it's there is no way you can try this case in saudi arabia

because they're not the mccann is. and independence to do it terms of investigating it over. the case i think it's very clear that indicate that what we're going to see in the next week or so. there will be one who this story the saudis game plan now is to get out there in front of cameras and to talk about it and to basically pin this crime on marginal actors the u.s. administration the action to this will be very typical american reaction where they will show concern by the end they will not carry on any action and real action to go after them it is among the perpetrator of this crime. joining us on set as mohamad chatah a senior fellow with the al-jazeera study center we appreciate your time so between

the prosecutor's office and the foreign minister saudi arabia was on the public stage answering questions for hours today but there are still glaring questions even after that and i think one of the most significant ones is is it credible to you that this happened the way they said it happened without the saudi government knowing about it. well so far the saudis have thought of capitalizing more of on the criminal illegal approach that's why now we have twenty one suspects five of them were made might be hanged and there is an increased scrutiny within some members of the team but what is missing here is that it does not address the political dimension of the scandal and therefore it's not going to satisfy an editor of the family of national green that the world public opinion because it does not tell us where the responsibility lies so we need to look at not only the

criminal and our approach but also where because iraq of responsibility leaders and i think it goes back to the turkish a negative thing we need think they still hold the cards to get those answers the will be very kind of very careful. in constructing what. to them looks like the best containment of the crisis or this can't go into open the system the legal system and we would have some people because if you did and we're going to blame x. or y. however this is not what the world is about to get one time it doesn't mean traitor justice no it's basically a realist outcome or a realist management of the crisis by showing what you can what works for you in a strategic way but you are not going to open up your hands and show all the work of therefore we may have more weeks maybe more months with this bottle between the saudi not in one hand the giving the other and also now the growing pressure inside

the senate inside the congress and washington so we should not take it take the saudi amount of the one its own merits but we should all support of the bill is that the electical relationship or interaction between these three angles of the triangle and surely saudi arabia i would imagine never expected to be called on the carpet this way that's publicly and had this much pressure hence their explanation i got a few weeks ago they got us from there to here so do you think there is another step of some sort of revelation or the story changing again as it is changes over the times differently i think we remember the first week of the scandal the saga not of that was. left in the course of a thwack he was not in turkey was a neighbor and so the area and then going to be really there is this guru in a can all of them and incremental because initially of what happened today it's been huge progress now we are the saudis are saying yes they cry i should resign

he was yes dismembered and parts of it were taken to bunt this is great on the criminal eleven it doesn't or the other still aspire while the on exacting them. and they think they are maximizing by high as we could we can only the legal side while we hope that the world opinion and with them governments will ease up the tension on us to through good old what to do with the political dimension and if they don't there is this dimension the slaughter demeans the heart the news would be feeding more on the slogan building in so many more questions a homage of how we thank you so much for joining us in the studio we appreciate it moved to other news now the british prime minister is being surrounded by enemies and her own party and elsewhere as she tries to defend her draft ranks and deal agreement looks unlikely to get parliament's approval and several government

ministers have quit in protest and clothing the u. case chief negotiator so theresa may and says the proposed divorce deal is the best britain could hope to strike before it leaves the european union next month. mr speaker the choice is clear we can choose to leave with no deal we could risk no breaks it is tool or we can choose. for or we can choose to unite and support the best deal it can be very soon to. run its outside the house of parliament and central london and don't panic i did misspeak it is next march not next month not next month also a proper prominent pro bracks it member teresa mayes own party says this she is on borrowed time put this in some perspective for us. yeah i mean it was

a bruising session of parliament for the prime minister this morning three hours she was there at the dispatch box he'd gotten an indication of the sentiment there when she said one of the options being no bricks it's all it was a massive cheer and there is a sizable contingent of within parliament now that thinks that reversing the whole process might be the only way out of this crisis because it's clear that there isn't a consensus for either the prime minister has proposed a draft deal which seems to be getting support from almost nobody or a hard on exit from the european union with no deal it's all going into it's basically falling off a cliff edge her position is looking though increasingly precarious and she looks rather friendless as these resignations of have cumulated during the course of today there is a grouping the european research group of effectively hard bricks it says led by my uncle jacob reese malk who. i should say saying i think for no confidence votes in

the prime minister that there is a process required let us have to be submitted a certain number forty eight need to be submitted to then activated to start that process but i think we can hannah from jacob reese malke saying he's not afraid of actually doing that triggering that process to to get it on the way and i think the parliamentary process is going to be sped up and bear in mind the conservative party now has a list of members up central office it doesn't have to go around the country oh asking who the members are. not months but i think weeks i think be unrealistic to a part of the knob or preserved body is likely to be full of talent and there are many many people you're off with out on the coming. well who want me to start with your gold bars drugs and david davis if you've got dominic robin after mcveigh you've got plenty more than you have dreams of talent within the conservative party who would be very capable of support of leading a proper break. soha are the prime minister and her draft withdrawal is it dead.

it certainly looks like it will be killed off once it comes back it's a parliament i think it will go through the motions between now and for example november the twenty fifth when the draft is due to go before the european council that's the whole twenty eight european union leaders including the reason may. looked like it was going to get the green light that but it has to be done ratified by this parliament here and indeed by the other member nation parliaments and once it comes back if a ratification as we have as we saw it was perfectly evident from the three hour session today it's not going to get through the arithmetic is simply not there so at that point the deal the deal really will be dead in the water and then we're in uncharted territories as to exactly where we go labor the opposition party would want to see a general election i don't think the conservatives are going to willingly give that to the opposition party other people other activists want to see

a people's votes and saying look if politicians is so deeply divided then we should put the question back to the people another referendum the prime minister is dead set against that maybe eventually forced all right paul brennan high for us paul thank you very much tantalus us deputy director of british influence a pro e.u. research group insurance live from london jonathan are the two sides negotiating for something that is not realistic or something that does not exist. well certainly the e.u. has been negotiating with something which does exist which is either a soft brick sit in the single market and customs union or northern ireland separate from great britain i'm afraid is the u.k. government which has been negotiating something which does not exist which is a cake and eat it breaks it which allows an open border in ireland and they can vote in the irish sea and also takes us out of the single market customs union that

was never on the agenda and anyone who read the agreement last december should've known that the government saudi didn't so is is this deal that theresa may has put forth the same question here that at the department as is it effectively dead it is totally dead on arrival because as your correspondent said there are very few people who will vote for it she was in the commons earlier and almost no m.p. stood up in favor of it so it will be destroyed by her own party by the opposition and that means that a people's vote has become much like because there is no majority in parliament for no deal scenario and that means that people's vote a second referendum on bricks it could be a way of bringing people together it's very interesting that a number of prominent breakfasters have said today that remaining in the e.u. is preferable to this deal because this deal delivers integration with the e.u. but powerlessness will have no right to influence the very it's influence the decisions which will govern our economy and certainly no votes will be reduced the

state has a law passed over an economy that was not exactly as a lever or remain as nobody votes for it john don't want all of these issues completely foreseeable completely knowable. the really well people like me have been talking about them for the last two years but there has been. with a fever of delusion and dishonesty and ignorance which is i'm afraid permeates the tory policy the very highest level the bricks it has been treated as a kind of religion where if you just believe in it's enough somehow what you want will come true i'm afraid the pricks it's car has met reality is wall today and finally people have seen that the front seat at the front see they thought that they were going to get is never deliverable so that means they have to deal with what they've got and that means that britain will effectively be either a vessel states or will devastate our economy or we can fight to stay in the european union which is the best deal we'll ever get while all right jonathan a central we're calling on you again thank you very much. well it has been

tearing here since the vote that rocked the u.k. in the e.u. at our website summit immediate aftermath of that vote was captured in pictures that reflect a range of reactions a range of emotions people are still feeling to this day just look on al-jazeera dot com and search for exit if you're with us on facebook live presents the confessions of a drone attack and ahead in the program were inside war torn central african republic as world powers baker over keeping peace keepers there. i'm optimistic that we will at long last see an end to the torrential downpours that have been affecting the middle east race and the loss of cloud showing up around the levant we've had some very heavy rain we've had rain heavy enough to

jazeera. where ever you are.

got your attention on our web site al jazeera dot com of course our lead story here throughout the day is the information from this coming from the saudi prosecutor in the murder of small they say that they have suspects and they're seeking the death penalty for at least five of them. also hamas is celebrating the resignation of the defense secretary and. what if donald trump is what america is all about really interesting on the opinion there again al jazeera dot com. the web site has published a list of the seventeen saudis who will sanction over death it includes a former top advisor to the crown prince mohammed bin salma on various other names on that list as well france russia and the u.s. are locked in the go she is trying to iron out differences over peacekeeping

efforts and the central african republic vote on whether to continue the mission has now been pushed back again for a month this time. the president the central african republic has little control over the country he governs with an arms embargo in place and groups fighting for control syria a.o.r. has called on russia for help al-jazeera has been given and president and access to russian military instructors on the ground. on the outskirts of the capital. deep in the jungle on the grounds of the band in palace of africa's last emperor. a russian operation is under way. mounts to russian fighters somewhere in ukraine others in syria or chechnya. now there in the central african republic training an army that has lost control of the country. they call this the storm danielle x. has ties blood to me or not his real name says discipline is one of the problems

sectarian violence fueled by militia groups has divided muslims and christians the russians are training men who once fought each other to unite for a government too weak to secure its own borders. sanctioned by u.n. arms embargo the army is ill equipped at the requests or president ouattara the security council approved imports of russian weapons last december now they are providing both arms and training launching an ambush on a building they call this the storms danya exercise. in a few short weeks they'll do this with live ammunition to put the soldiers under stress. now they go through scenarios like this on a daily basis trying to prepare me soldiers to deal with real life events so that the government here can regain control of the country here to help is valerie's

more weapons and instructors on the way this may be just the beginning. nicholas hawk al-jazeera baringo the central african republic. tanzania has just lost a three hundred million dollar world bank loan over human rights concerns and to make matters worse sarsour tell us that denmark has followed suit sarah you know while the decision was made over tanzania's policy of banning pregnant girls from going to school they've been expelled for decades roughly eight thousand of them every year some schools are even imposing compulsory pregnancy tests and the president soften the policy in june also banning girls from going back to school once they've given birth in a statement the walls bank said that it supports policies that encourage girls' education and make it possible for young girls to study in schools until they reach their full potential and human rights watch says discovered through policy has

one of the really special things about working for al-jazeera is that even as a camera woman i get to have so much and put in contribution to a story i feel we cover this region better than anyone else would be what it is you know steady trying to be but in the particular because you have a lot of people that are people i did political be sure. to people believe to tell

the real story so i'll just use to be less in-depth enemies and you don't feel you have a good audience because the people. i so much talk about in sport today purcell yes thank you and it's all about this man le bron james the los angeles lakers star known to fans as king king james has become the face the highest scorer in n.b.a. history moving ahead to formulate his play wilt chamberlain after his forty four points in the lakers win of a portland trail blazers and that's the most the thirty three year old has got in the game since joining from the cavan cavaliers this season and more than any

lakers play as kobe bryant's sixty in his final game in two thousand and sixteen now lots of people have been congratulating the brawn online including actor and former governor of california arnold schwarzenegger who watched the game alongside model cindy crawford. i don't see. someone for no. good. and i take full advantage over till i give all the credit to my costar of my teammates all to sixteen years. old the whole world well hard work has caught le bron to a total of thirty one thousand four hundred twenty five points in his career sounds impressive but there's still a way to go fame to climb to the top of the all time list let's take a look at who's still ahead of him lebron needs just eight hundred sixty seven more points to catch chicago bulls legend michael jordan in a fourth which he should be able to do by the end of january if he keeps up his season scoring average of twenty six point four points

a game while the top three on the list all formulaic has inferred kobe bryant was searched three thousand six hundred forty three koby played his entire twenty year career in l.a. and then there's a bit of a gap to call malone in second malone who ended his career with the lakers after eighteen years at the utah jazz scored more than thirty six thousand points at the top there it's kareem abdul-jabbar the nineteen time n.b.a. all star leading the way with a massive thirty eight thousand three hundred eighty seven points would need to play for a few more years to have a chance of bettering that. now from la braun to levy on an f l running back levy on bell that is who has divided social media over the last few days off to fall footing fourteen and a half million dollars just to make a stand well as one of the best players in the n.f.l. and didn't report to the pittsburgh steelers headquarters on choose day meaning is not eligible to play for the remainder of the season why well he wasn't happy with

the seventy million dollars five year contract he was offered because only seventeen million of that was guaranteed money while many of us would snap it up running backs have some of the highest injury statistics in the game and at twenty eight spell is in his prime it's also about trying to shift the balance of power away from owners and back to players as both explained in his latest rap song. that i want. want to know why they want to. buy target sort of. change. me. you get the idea but there's plenty of steelers fans who don't agree with him some of been burning their bell jersey which is interesting in itself because bell also burnt a kyrie irving jersey when the basketball player left the cleveland cavaliers but not everyone has gone to such extremes this pretty easy says running back james

connor is on a roll anyway and they're tired of all the levy on drama a tweet supporting everyone points out that at least he won't end up like old thomas the seattle seahawks defensive back did the same as levy on but returned just before the season three games and he went and broke his leg without securing his guaranteed payment but however betrayed saddened and annoyed steelers fans feel right now this n.f.l. reporter says that some team will sign levy on bell to a fat contract next year when he becomes a free agents but this video shot by an e.s.p.n. reporter has divided fans this time over the conduct of the steelers players who when they heard levy on bell wasn't coming back raided his locker and appeared to be filmed stealing some of his stuff some say it was all a bit of a joke but others are outraged by their behavior well paul will be back at eight hundred g.m.t. with more but for now it is back to michelle. all right thank you very much joe that is all for the news cred to keep in touch with us on social media all of the
