8:01 pm
reminder this time next week anderson cooper will be hosting a town hall with vice president kamala harris, just 13 days before the election, 9:00 p.m. right here on cnn. >> thanks for watching. laura coates starts right now game on and goes on. >> fox news to make her case the trustee interview and the new pledge she just made. >> plus donald trump faces latino voters in miami. >> and there's one question he was just asked the you fed epsilon lonely meeting here and the menendez brothers fight for freedom inside the new plea to try to get them out as the investigative reporter at their heart of their days where he's going to join me tonight on laura coates live kamala harris is hiding from the press anymore. it can be nope. that talking point ending
8:02 pm
tonight maybe once and for all. let's have a moment of silence for that. despite what the sorry, i had to seriously that the vice president appeared on fox news tonight. >> yes. you heard me it was on fox news host bret baier. >> questioned her in a 20 plus minute contentious interview. now, the decision to actually appear on a channel that largely caters to donald trump was not done i'm on a whim. it was as her campaign told me this week, a decision to reach every voter they can in this case independence and republicans. >> so high to go? well, best to boil it down like this, okay aerospace questions on some of the most popular attack let's from her critics that the last four years haven't been great i'm being generous way to describe it to her and that she'll just be more of the same let me be very clear. my presidency will not be a
8:03 pm
continuation of joe biden's presidency. and like every new president that comes in to office, i will bring my life experiences, my professional experiences, and fresh and new ideas there's going to be some daylight once she takes office, if she's takes office now the other popular attacks from her critics is that no one knows what she stands for, because reviews have changed in 2019, particularly on the issue of immigration you supported allowing immigrants in the country illegally to apply for driver's license, to qualify for free tuition at universities to be enrolled and free health care. >> do you still support those things? >> was that was five years ago and i'm very clear that i will follow the law decriminalizing border crossing just like you said, in 2019 i do not believe in decriminalizing border crossings and i've not done that as vice president now, anyone who watched, we'll have
8:04 pm
also heard harris tried to make the point that this election is a choice between someone like yourself and someone who is former aides have deemed him unfit to lead though january 6 never came up in the fox interview. >> it did come up in another q&a tonight a town hall with latino voters in miami with donald trump i want to give you the opportunity to try to win back my vote. okay your mind, you say action and maybe inaction during your presidency and the last few years sort of, you know was a little disturbing to me. you know, what happened during january 6 and the fact that, you know you waited so long to take action while you're supportive were attacking the capitol. and also people in your administration who don't support you i'm curious how people so close to you and your administration no
8:05 pm
longer want to support you so why would i want to support you? >> the people that don't support a very small portion, but that was a day of love from the standpoint of the medians. it's like hundreds of thousands could have been the largest group. i've ever spoken before. >> well his reaction was a whole meme you saw that you saw the head flop, right i'm reading into it, but i think i know exactly what that had flop meant. joining me now, democratic strategist, maria cardona, editor of the national review, ramesh ponnuru former white house deputy press secretary for trump administration sarah matthews, who has endorsed kamala harris for president, okay. for some maria, what did this mean the head flop of i mean, what amount was hurt? my neck but what did it mean to you that he didn't get it done clearly, he did not get it done. >> that was not a satisfactory answer, not for that latino gentlemen. i don't think for any american who really understands the danger that donald trump still poses a day
8:06 pm
of love odd thing to say. >> it is a very odd thing to have said, you know, his supporters will eat it up because they believe every single thing that comes out of his mouth but in this very close election, donald trump should be passed trying to get support from just his supporters. he needs women, he needs suburban women. he needs republicans. he needs moderates. he needs latinos. he needs more black voters, and denying what happened on january 6, we all saw it with our own eyes. it happened minute by minute as we were all appalled, who's staring at our television sets? not understanding what was going on, and never thinking that something like that could happen in this country and he's still denies that it happened, says that it was an eventful of love. and i think that is going to see meant for so many voters. the fact that he is qualified and hope wholly
8:07 pm
unfit to be elected. again, sara, that was the impetus for you even leaving the white house. >> you were there? >> yeah. >> i resigned on january 6 because i saw firsthand donald trump's unwillingness to call off the mob. and a real tipping point for me. i kept hoping that day that he would meet the moment time and time again throughout the day, hour-by-hour, hoping he would step up and do something and he didn't. why? because he was enjoying what he was seeing. then what did he finally do after the capitol police had regained control of the building he sends out a video where he tells the rioters, i almost had protesters, they were rioters. let me be very clear about that. he says them, we love you. you're very special and he didn't differentiate between the peaceful protesters it's all at the ellipse that day and the rioters who defaced our capital brutally attacked police officers. and then i think for him to this day to double down and say it was a day of love. that's what he thinks about january 6. it was a celebratory day for him because he saw how he could inspire his people to do what he wants and enact as well and try to do everything
8:08 pm
you can to stay in power and that's the type of leader he is. and that's why i will never support him again and why i have endorsed harris rematch. >> she wanted to jump in. >> they were full of love for him and that's all that matters from his perspective. i think what's interesting is what maria was saying about how much trump's campaign is devoted to mobilizing its base rather than persuading and people want to join it but at the same time, if you look at the polls from now compared to 2020 or 2016, some people have in reaction to the biden administration or whatever they're feeling about the perceptions of the moment they are coming around he has it has i think been trump himself but what something has persuaded people to give him another shot his numbers are better than they were, and they'll previous to go rounds. >> well, what are the issues that has been very mobilizing for voters has been the issue of immigration and other january 6 did not come up in that bret baier at kamala harris interview immigration certainly did. and it was actually this moment when he
8:09 pm
was pressing her and the number of people that she had allowed into the country's his phrasing. listen to how that exchange when there's no question about that. there's no question about that. and i can't imagine the pain that the families of those victims have experienced for loss that should not have occurred i'm so sorry for her loss i'm so sorry for her loss. sincerely she was being asked questions about murders that had been committed of american citizens by undocumented persons in this country. >> that was the responses after she failed to give a precise number that he was pressing hur on, the number of it and that was how that interview really started on immigration. how do you think she did in dealing with what you new would be top of mind in this conversation? i actually she did. i think she did well, laura, because i think it was very smart of her to start with the empathy
8:10 pm
because absolutely. you have to have empathy. those are really horrific, tragic cases. >> and then to move on to the solution because the fact of the matter is is that she did do something she and biden did something that very first day that they walked into the white house they proposed a comprehensive immigration reform bill that talked about the common sense balanced approach that the vast majority of americans support, which is stronger border security, as well as expanded legal pathways for the long-settled immigrants that have been here for decades, including dreamers donald trump did nothing when he was in office. >> he didn't build the wall. he didn't keep undocumented immigrants from coming here, and he eviscerated so many of those legal pathways so the biden-harris administration came in there, let and less than zero, they had to triage because they are our immigration system was in shambles and so hopefully she
8:11 pm
is going to get a chance to explain all of that if she needs to, because they actually did a lot to bring our immigration system to a point where they could handle so what was coming in and then when the numbers she's got 20 days to make i mean, i hear your point. >> you're making, but you know what that's what she's focused on the solutions because that's what americans want to hear. and she's got a great point to make that if donald trump and republicans were so focused and so interested in solutions, they would not have turned their back on the border security bill. and that's exactly what they did, which means they have no interest in governing on this. they just want to weaponize it. will sara, the one of the first clips that the harris campaign posts on social media was about her prosecuting transnational criminal. >> she's talked about or prosecute experience. she's able to get across some of her message, but i do wonder, did she persuade the fox? it's viewers that she was the right person to lead this charge i think that this was a valuable interview for her to do because she was able to present facts to this audience that they
8:12 pm
might not necessarily always here. >> for example, she talked about the bipartisan border deal that trump killed that was an example of something that the fox audience might not necessarily be aware of that she raised to them to go maybe go google and look it up for themselves. and additionally, she talked about all of the people in his administration that aren't supporting him. she talked about mark milley, things like that that showed that just things that there aren't not going to hear that often. and i think to that it just showed the willingness on her part to go into the lion's den and she knew that this was going to be a tough interview, but she did it anyways and to a fox news audience watch or maybe a woman who's sitting at home who's heard that kamala isn't bright or that she's not tough, she's week or whatever it is that donald trump likes to say about her, then they watched that the interview and maybe then agree with everything she was saying. but their takeaway was she sounds pretty tough and i think that her prosecutor side did come out. look when she's in the
8:13 pm
courtroom or in those committee hearings or on the debate stage with donald trump. she thrives in those settings where her back is against the wall. and so i think that this their view showcase that really well where it's sometimes maybe those easier interview softball friendly audiences. she might not do as well because i actually think she thrives in that kind of setting. >> well, you know, one of the questions has been lingering in people's minds and has gotten back is here we are what, 70 something days into her actual top of ticket campaign. forget that but people are wondering about her honesty at the fox news audience, particularly whether she knew or believed that biden was in cognitive decline. fact that came up for match. listen to what that exchange was like president biden's mental faculties appeared diminished joe biden i have watched in from the oval office to the situation room and he has the judgment and the experiment inexperienced to do exactly what he has done and making
8:14 pm
very important decisions on behalf of the american people. you met with him at least once a week for three-and-a-half years? you didn't have any concerns i think the american people have a concern about donald trump is that a good answer? ramesh, i think that even people who with an open-mind are going to see that answer. >> and some other answer she gave as evasive. now, i'm not blaming her necessarily from a political standpoint because there are some questions that don't have a good political answer. i don't think she had a great answer on the immigration question. i don't think she had a great answer on what she's gonna do differently from joe biden over but then he's done over the last three-and-a-half years, but enough of those things accumulate where you start to look evasive you do i think it's so ironic that you started this and i think this is true that the fox audience was concerned about her honesty honesty honesty. >> we're talking about donald trump here. the contrasts that she's making. and they're concerned about her honesty.
8:15 pm
but that goes to your point about what this audience is fed every single day, which is why i come back to, i think it was a brilliant move for her to do it. i think it absolutely showed her to be strong, to be tough. she didn't take it from brett. she pushed back, especially on the issue of the what donald trump said about the enemy within he played a clip that did not include clued what he actually had said and she called him out on that. i thought that was one of the strongest moments for her and it really showed her prosecutorial chops and the fact that she is tough and she is strong, and the contrast make donald trump look weak, pathetic, and small because he's the one that is now saying no to so many things, including a debate with her. >> she's strongest an offense which is making the case against trump. she's she does when she's on the defensive. i don't think quite as convinced. >> well, there goes my high school basketball coach is motto, i guess the best offense, not defense everyone stay with me. it's appalling down on eating pets elon musk
8:16 pm
will be in charge. just some of trump's answers when taking questions from latino voters. well, they do him any favors maybe we'll get. >> your vote. sounds like maybe i won't put that's okay to plus a plot twist. new evidence of the menendez brothers murder case has the family calling for their release? >> nobody on cnn has arrived. >> we look at the news of the week and asked questions like, what does a comedy show doing on cnn people have spoken you go to hell and all that weight up, freestyle. >> that's too much i want donald now, can you splice that the vi got news for you saturday at nine on cnn and screen next day on max on a monday, i know what
8:17 pm
>> rich as hell. >> i work hard. i scraped to get by donald trump wants to give tax breaks to billionaires, but kamala harris has plans to help us. she's going to crack down on price gouging and cut taxes for working people like me i voted for donald trump before, but this time i'm voting for kamala. >> ff pac is responsible for the content of this add part is never easy but at least saving on your family's medication is prescription savings made easy. another good reason to check, good rx just a little bit more and you'll feel all better conclave. the pope is dead dunes are watching
8:18 pm
we're about to choose the most famous man in the wild. >> mystery is unfolding the pope discovered something before he died, and everyone is a suspect. >> ambition becomes corruption given us eyes and ears, based on and i should know, best-selling thriller, i have to find the truth in this conversation never took place but it has taken place conclave really pga, only in theaters october 25 at bids to credit. we know you need to fund your business on time when businesses good, it could be time to expand, time forbids to credit when bills are piling up, you might need extra cash to get ahead. >> time for vista credit are fast and convenient. >> online process makes it easy to get the funding you when it's time to take your business to new heights, bids to credit makes it possible. go too busy credit credit.com slash time or call 800, 200 to 891 bids to credit funding. what's next? >> okay. is really knows how to put the heart and your local community see what i did there

8:21 pm
false during the cnn town hall, a voter asked trump, why you said it trump's response just reporting what i heard did this was just reported? >> i was i was just saying what was reported. that's been reported. and eating other things too, that are supposed to be. but this is all i do is report. i have not i was there. i'm going to be there and we're going to take a look and i'll give you a full report. what i do well, my panel is back with me. >> sara there is no evidence that anything that he was reporting on, so to speak, actually happened. >> this is an easy pivot. i would think. but why does he keep going forward? >> yeah. as you mentioned, there's zero evidence of it, even the local officials there have said there's zero evidence since the republican governor in ohio has said it. and he's going to keep doubling down on it because this is what donald trump does. i saw it firsthand working for him as a spokesperson, he will refuse to
8:22 pm
admit when he is wrong. and so then he continues to double down on it. and then the lie somehow seems to grow. that's where you heard him say at the end of that clip that oh, they're eating in other things too. he's just adding to it because he has to he can't admit when he's wrong. and so that is the strategy is to never admit that you're wrong. and so this lie though in particular is so offensive and i mean it has just torn that community. they're part. i'm from ohio and so i take this personally and it's really upsetting, but it also just speaks to this increased anti-immigrant rhetoric that we've seen from him while on the campaign trail. and the authoritarian rhetoric when he's talking about the enemy from within, he's referred to immigrants also as the enemy from within. in addition to his political opponents, said other things like they're poisoning the blood of this country and the list goes on and you just have to ask yourself as a republican who's maybe on the fence about supporting donald trump. how much more of this
8:23 pm
rhetoric do we need to see that? are we willing to tolerate? because i'm of the opinion that we just need to turn the page and put it in the past. i'm tired of the divisiveness and the chaos he brings and the lies, because that's what this was. this is a lie, but he will never admit to it. and him and jd vance are going to continue to double down on it when you ask the question, how and that's a question that a lot of voters have. in particular, they had it tonight about how his plan to deport immigrants would actually work. it's one thing to put it out there, but how would it work? listen to his response we just want them to come in legally through a system because they've released hundreds of thousands of people that are murderers, drug dealers terrorist. >> so we want workers and we want them to come in, but they have to come in legally. they have to love our country. they have to love you, love our people the problem with this administration is they've totally lost control so i didn't hear an answer to how
8:24 pm
we're mashed. >> is this going to hurt him with latino voters in particular? >> yeah. well, it's not an answer to the question, right? he was asked and that one of the interesting things though, that is coming out in the polling, is that along with him? no voters. if you ask him if you ask them about the rhetoric that trump has used about associating immigrants and especially illegal immigrants, with violence. they say, oh, he's not talking about me. that's not me. and so it isn't hurting him the way a lot of people had expected that rhetoric to hurt him can i just one other thing? the repeat the haitian the attack on the haitians. >> it's if you take him at face value, what he's saying is he doesn't care enough about the truth to do the most basic due diligence when you hear something before repeating it on national television, which is something that none of us would do. and we're not running for president united states. >> but great point. i think it's worse than that. i think it under scores his love for attacking communities that don't look like him. and that's what he's doing with
8:25 pm
the haitians. that's what he's doing with immigrants in general. and that's why i think this whole thing, the town hall on one region was a whole debacle for him because on the haitian immigrants, it showed the hatred that he has to emerge prince on the whole issue of the deportation. it shows the hatred he has to not just immigrants, latino voters and i have a problem with those polls that show that a lot of immigrants or latinos don't think that he's talking about them because a fourth of latino families live in mixed status families were there are undocumented people. there and they feel so vulnerable, they feel attacked, they don't feel safe with somebody who would be president, who wants to deport 20 million people that would not just be a debacle society if society wise for the country, but it would put our economy in the toilet, right? economists have said that. and so i think one of the things that the kamala harris campaign did that was really smart today. they had a press conference this morning. laura, right before the town hall with the kids that were separated by
8:26 pm
trump's family separation policy, and they talked about how this hurt them, this scarred them for life. >> and there's still a generation of immigrants that are orphans because of what donald trump did. >> and he has pledged to do it again, if he is elected, and so again, this is yet another reason, not just to latino voters, but to americans in general who hold wholeheartedly rejected that family separation policy to say, no well, you know, this just in there's a reaction from trump to the show and i'm just kidding because you're accident trump about the bret baier interview with harris, he said, congratulations and great job by brett baer. i mean, it's a lengthy one as well. great job by love my glasses, aren't strong enough in his interview with lit with lion kamala harris, she has a massive and irredeemable case of trump derangement syndrome blah, blah, blah. is the rest you can
8:27 pm
read it on the screen sara does it surprise you? he would have come out to be supportive of bretton this instance well, yeah, he loves to when he has to yeah, he has to in this case, i think he he saw brett kind of take her on i think it was interesting in this interview almost that bret had more of that hinged on this interview than it felt like the vp did because he needed to appease his on his fox news audience. >> and audience of one donald trump, because he knew that if he wasn't tough on her or pushing back, are making trump look good in the interview that that would upset trump. and so i think that had to do what
8:28 pm
>> because you'll never see donald trump do an interview like that. i don't think in the home stretch because his campaign seems to be hiding him. i mean, that's why he didn't do 60 minutes. the second debate with her, they're not releasing her his medical records. i saw in that lengthy posts, he talked about her cognitive decline. okay. well, really your records on trump. i would love to see on the participants, so univision some of the toughest question she's gotten in the last few months yeah, that's that's wrong. go well, for him, i don't think i'm dying to know how the audiences well, the electorate in particular viewed all of it. thank you all so much weight, thoughtful conversation. look, it's one of trump's new favorite catchphrases if you don't vote for him you got to have you should have the head examined. we're going to have to send you to a psychiatrist to have your headset the latest group who he thinks need some therapy, black voters. >> so what is a black voter who is supporting harris? think about it yehey ugly tells me
8:29 pm

8:34 pm
>> thinks needs a little therapy. >> any jewish person that votes for her especially now, her or the democrat party should have their head examined is there a theme here? >> because what advice of the former president have for american seniors you guessed it if any senior doesn't vote for trump we're going to have to send you to a psychiatrist to have your head examined okay. now it's cliche, but it seems that everyone voting for harris according to him, needs to have their heads examined, at least in the world according to trump if you vote for her, you to have your head examined i told you it was a cliche at this point, but my next guest is a harris supporter, but he will likely argue he hasn't even a check-up or to have his head examined. >> comedian and radio host of a d l hughley show, d l hughley is here. so good to see you. i
8:35 pm
have to ask as why what's your reaction when you hear trump say that people need to have their head examined if they support harris well, i think that the standard for him, but i think if you instead of dancing instead of answering questions that conference, you dance before he minutes somebody might say you need why people haven't dance that musk is vanilla ice, like i just, i think it's really like the, the standards by what the judge a little a little off to me, but i think if the kamala labs during a press conference, she there's something wrong with her mentally, but if he dances for 40 minutes, there's nothing wrong. >> so i think that they are clearly judged by two different standards. and any man who has the, has been having a mental decline, he has religious opposition to yes, nobody else's little acuity well, you know, i thought it was very odd for a number of reasons. >> one being if i've got 20 at that 0.21 days until the
8:36 pm
election, and i've got a captive audience and the camera on me. i'm probably not going to spend it dancyg. i'm talking about my opponent. i'm sorry. i'm actually going to do i'm going to try to persuade the persuadable voters and then there's a moment when sometimes you do have a camera in front of you and some thank you. say the wrong thing. and i'm pointing to the former president barack obama, who faced some pushback because some believed that he was finger wagging, that he was scolding black man who don't support harris, and that he should not have done so in the way that he did. do you have any thoughts about how the campaign is dealing with and addressing black male voters in particular well, i don't know that he is. >> i think he's a very good in the way that he campaigning for, but i don't know that he represents the campaign. i think that kamala harris has gone univision i think he's gone to wisconsin where the body was bound. i think she's gone too fox news. i think address young black men. i think he clearly, clearly showing that she's willing to
8:37 pm
go anyway and talk to anybody. so i think where her and rock probably diverges her opinion i think it's deaconess to believe that anybody or any one group to be supportive of anybody. >> i think that there were not people say i'm not a monolith. >> i think that he's going to do as well as republicans do. >> i don't think that he has the numbers that he believed he does. but people have the right to vote for whoever they want to. >> and barack obama biden but politically as earned, has enough political capital to say. >> but he said i wasn't offended by it. i just think it is a difference of opinion do you think that given that little cabal that he has that he should continue to speak directly to the demographic that people believe democrats are fearful they might lose to trump, particularly black men what i think the premise is different i've spent a lot of time hearing about how kamala harris is standing is eroding with young black men, but not as much about how trump's standing is eroding with old
8:38 pm
white man like dick cheney, geraldo rivera, jeff flake new york times-siena poll had them from five to 9% of republicans say, that if we're going to have an honest argument they both have seen erosion and people they've been supportive of there. >> but why has the story about what her roads and look like the nazis? >> well, i'll be more concerned about what a young black kid says and a barbershop in detroit, but not what a vice president or a the president of the republic has of texas or kinzhal begun. why is there why? when i haven't got legitimate conversation about there rogen and him, why nobody in an intelligence doesn't one? why does nobody from the military want to vote for him so we can have a conversation about her rosy with black men losing the conversation equally. why aren't we talking about what he's lost and the people who was most of what they don't the truth is, you make a fine point and the idea as you began this whole conversation about the double standards at play and why they're different focus in so
8:39 pm
many ways phase and you make a good point as to why there is that balancing of how the electorate might be drawing are looking at, are examining these false equivalencies of aspects of it. >> but then i do wonder you mentioned fox news you obviously watched it tonight when she went to five days, spoke to bret baier what was your opinion of her going to fox? it was the first time she ever been there i understand. but also the fact that she has gone they're she has been interviewing and being interviewed by many people over the past several weeks at the very least, what did you make of her conversation with bret baier i think that is it is somebody who is desires to appeal to as many people as he can go. >> here but i think like even if we're talking about when he went to the line, dan attain the line. so anybody who said he didn't do well as being disingenuous i think another example of the he's been running. she's been a republican or democratic front runner for 90 days and she's asked to come up with a plan for black men donald trump has been the republican nominee for president for ten straight years. and no one's asked him for his position on it after
8:40 pm
ten straight years from to leave the race for president in 2012, he's been a republican standard representative. barrett since 2015, and has and has concepts of a plan so i can understand why there is the gap is still closed because america never even had a female president of anytime there's no disputing the fact that one of the things i think is going on, he won unassailable advantage. they, kamala harris has enjoyed. is enthusiasm. and i think there's deliberate attempt to tamp down enthusiasm if the polls been personally, it's ironic when trump was tupac points ahead in the battleground and two points ahead in the national poll it was so bad, the democrats got rid of their standard better. >> but now is not that so i just think it. requires a what if he's going to make his and i think he will it regards people being deliberate and sober and understanding that the biggest difference between

8:49 pm
were the leg does sisters they would not be in custody now, the family is splintered, at least one brother of kitty menendez has come out saying he does not believe they should be released. >> he's not happy about this, but we are told the majority of the family is in support of their release and they were there today well, the la da george ghassan is considering the families plea and reviewing some new evidence brought forward by the minute as attorney, what is the evidence? >> he is reviewing and when could we expect a decision on this? >> so a couple of new pieces of evidence and for the first time this week, we're seeing actually the contents of a letter that attorneys say proves jose menendez sexually abused erik menendez, and they say, this is incredibly important because it proves and it shows that there was sexual abuse before the murders it took place saying in part, quote, i've been trying to avoid dad, its still happening, andy, but its worse for me now, i never know when its going to
8:50 pm
happen and its driving me crazy every night i stay up thinking he might come in in addition to this letter, there's also been a declaration from another potential victim that has been submitted to the district attorney's office from a former boy from a former boy band member from the menudo band. and he says he also was a victim of jose menendez. so these two pieces of evidence, along with other pieces of evidence, the district attorney's office, they're reviewing. they have until the end of november to make a decision about we have been hearing from abc news that apparently george gascon and could make a decision by the end of this month, we will be watching back to you, laura. >> wow, veronica miracle, thank you for being on top of this story. i appreciate it so much. i want to bring in an author who has been working on the story of lyle and erik menendez for decades. robert rand former federal prosecutor, neama rahmani is also with us nima wasn't a mistake for the da to
8:51 pm
post ben delete a screenshot of that undated letter that erik menendez wrote decades ago i don't think so. laura and i think all signs point to george gascon agreeing to a re-sentencing now, he's had this information for quite some time more than a year, but things are moving very quickly and we've talked about the legal case and the challenges that erik and lyle have improving self-defense, but they have presented a mask store full case in the court of public opinion veronica and i were talking off camera and i haven't seen a crowd like this in los angeles in or outside a courtroom since oj. and there's a lot of support, both here locally, grew up the nation for the brothers. i mean, setting aside the family members that spoke today. so i think all signs do point to george gascon agreeing to this re-sentencing. and i think happened before the november 5 election because of course, he's in a very highly contested race and it seems that if you do a re-sentenced,
8:52 pm
it would be a lower charge and possibly the time served would be enough speaking terms of the actual sentencing, as opposed to life at the possibility of parole. >> but we'll see robert. you have followed this case since the very beginning. i mean, prosecutors have been unmoved by their brothers, please, throughout all of these years, do you think that right now the reconsideration of a sentence is in earnest, effort by this da i do. >> if you'd asked me a month ago if i thought george gascon would get involved in an unjust for others case before his election campaign ended. i would've said he should actually to touch this with a ten-foot pole and now today i think that there could be an actual decision by de-age george gascon right before the election you want are you spoke i understand with some of the family members today, what did they tell you? they are very
