tonight, the david letterman scandal. are his interoffice activities turning him into a late-night punch line? president obama extended the olive branch to the right wing over and over again and they keep chopping me off. joining me in the studio, the fabulous regis filledman. all of that and more from new york city tonight. sex, money, extortion.

is this an episode of "law and order?" it's the real life goings-on of "the late show with david letterman." new details including a love nest above the ed sullivan theater. who was a bigger babe magnet than ed sullivan? joining me are comedian sandra bernhard, judith regan, jeanine pirro and the fabulous lloyd grove. welcome to the show. i want to show a picture of this girlfriend of his first. okay. there she is. very nice looking, sweet girl. do you think there were others, lloyd, or this it? >> there may have been others. i have to say i hung out on that show for three days running for hours on end and maybe i'm not the best judge but i didn't get a vibe that there was a sexual

harassment vibe there. in fact, three of his top producers are women and all of them have worked for him for, like, 30 years. >> i heard that. jeanine, your a lawyer. sexual harassment means a lot of different things. >> it's two things. there are two standards under title 7. do you in exchange for sex get a promotion or get to keep your job or is there a hostile work environment which means is it raunchy, people patting you on the butt, that kind of thing. it doesn't appear based upon the promotion of so many women, a strong women show in terms of the executives, that that seemed to be the case. the issue is consent. was it voluntary consensual sex and if it was, there's no sexual harassment. >> it seems everyone is talking about the admission from thursday. look at this. >> the creepy stuff was that i have had sex with women who work for me on this show.

now, my response to that is, yes, i have. i've had sex with women who work on this show. [ applause ] and would it be embarrassing if it were made public? perhaps it would. perhaps it would. especially for the women. >> okay. a couple of things. first of all, he said it was creepy, which really struck me because creepy to me -- i don't think what he did was that creepy because creepy is consensual incest. we heard about that last week. roman polanski was creepy. they're both adults. what about the fact that other women at the show might feel the hostile environment. not a welcoming environment. if one girl is sleeping with the boss and getting promotions or going on the air, what do you think? >> i thought when he said creepy, that was the thing that

resonated with me. i thought we don't know details of what went on. maybe it was creepy. maybe he was doing creepy things. maybe the guy who extorted him has a lot of details about the kind of sexual behavior he engaged in. we don't know anything. was it sexual harassment? we don't even know that. if it was sexual harassment, wouldn't these women have come forward before and said something before? >> koenconsenting adults here. come on. where do you go where there are powerful, rich, successful men who are not having sex with the women around them? i don't know. i lived in new york city. this is not an alarming situation as far as i can see. the only alarming thing is the extortion. if it's true. >> really? well, you used to flirt with dave. >> i did. i always found david incredibly attractive. i still do to this day.

just because of his self-effacement and his sort of mock embarrassment of his whole being. i find that very attractive in a man. >> i don't think it's mock. i think he has a lot of issues. >> we all have issues. you know, he makes up where he draws his humor and it's funny and it works and even his confession i found -- i laughed out loud. it was genius. the show is doing so well. i don't know. i think once you hit 21 and no matter what the workplace is -- unless he's twisting their arm, which i doubt is happening because he is very appealing. he's an appealing guy. i'm not surprised that women wanted to sleep with him. >> if i was a girl working on the show and some other girl is getting on-air time because she's sleeping with the head of the company, i wouldn't like it. >> you would hone your five minutes. come on, joy. you would be in there sharpening your tools and be ready to roll.

>> jeanine, come on, don't you think this is -- not hostile but not a welcoming environment for other people. >> the question is a fair question. how do you compete with someone who is sleeping with the boss? the problem is that the case and the statutes don't contemplate that. they contemplate two grounds, hostile work environment and you want to extrapolate from that that it is hostile because you can't get had in there and sleep with him too. what's curious is that no one ever complained and one of the young women said i love this guy. he was hilarious. i would have married him if he asked me. >> sure. he's rich. of course she would have married him. >> just because you sleep with the boss doesn't mean you'll get ahead. sometimes it can be detrimental to your career. >> only if you break up. >> i'm not sure where were they trying to get to? i don't think most of the women were trying to be performers or they would be guest on the show like we've been. i don't understand ultimately

what they were trying to achieve through their sexual relationship. >> she does get an extra check on the air. you get an after check if you go on the air. >> wonderful insurance. >> he paid for her law school. hello. >> unless she was at the olympics reporting. >> he doesn't want to sleep with every woman and not every woman wants to sleep with him and not every woman will get those treats. if you're not dating someone, you won't send them a diamond bracelet. it doesn't make sense. i don't find this to be that scandalous or off the charts. >> the guy from the deli is on the air a lot. >> that's true. over the years he's had a lot of interesting characters. >> the interesting thing is extortionist and what could have happened there. gary is one of the best criminal defense attorneys in the world. i was there at mark dryer's sentencing and his performance was impressive. the way they'll spin the story

is he was trying to sell his book or screen play and giving david letterman the opportunity to buy it first which happens by the way all of the time in the book business. people used to come to me all of the time and -- people would come to me all the time -- >> not a chance. you have the manhattan d.a.'s office in the middle of this thing. you have a wiretap. you had an extortion clear and simple. i agree with you judith, gary is a phenomenal attorney. this case was supervised by the d.a.'s office from start to finish. >> i'm going start datie ining . he sounds like the one to go after. >> this is what the attorney for the accused extortionist said today on "good morning america." >> i don't think the full story is before the public. i think that every day, every hour of every day, i'm gathering

new facts and there's much more to this story. >> lloyd, who is this guy, halderman? who is he? >> a long-time cbs field producer. he's a field producer. he has a huge ego. >> what do you mean? >> you have to. this is someone that goes around the world. he's a war correspondent. you have to have a lot of self-confidence. you have to get the story. you have to be brash. he was somebody who liked to have fun. he had a reputation for being a bit of a womanizer. >> i haven't seen one picture of this man that looks like fun. >> fun? get it going. wow! fun. >> his motivation is that he had problems with child support, foreclosure issues, maintenance

issues. >> so what? who doesn't? what does that mean? that's half of america. >> what about the gosselins. you think this is bad. >> i just want to say one thing about jerry and what he said. >> back to jerry. my man. >> i'm going after him, too. he's an incredible guy. >> you've had enough problems. >> that's true. when he said i'm looking forward to taking david letterman's deposition, that's a veiled threat. he wants david letterman to know he'll sit in the deposition and ask him every sorted detail about his sex life from day one and it will all be made public. what do you do in bed? are you into choking women? >> he is just finding girls at the office. >> what's telling is that no one has complained about letterman to this point. no one said a word. >> not yet. >> not yet.

>> these other girls may come out now. >> i think the problem with this guy is he was rejected by letterman. letterman didn't invite him to parties. >> he had a lot of -- you have to go to break. >> we'll have more but we're out of time right now.

>> if you came here tonight for sex with the talk show host, you've got the wrong studio. what is going on? first conan hit his head and then somebody tries to extort money from letterman. i'm so glad i'm out of late night. >> letterman's rival jay leno took his shot on friday. i'm back with my panel. sandra, you and jay did have an affair at one time.

>> he took me for a ride on his motorcycle back in the day. >> that was it or you had sex on the motorcycle? i don't get it. >> i was, like, 19 years old. i was just starting on the comedy scene. i wish i had been more impressed by letterman. i find letterman to be a sexier man. just in general. >> do you think women will stop watching letterman? >> i think they'll watch more than ever. >> you know he has a 58% female audience. this is what's interesting. they always tell women comedians, us, that late night is for the boys because only men watch it. p.s., 58% of his viewers are female. >> i think women, you know, ultimately have a better sense of humor than a lot of men do. women have learned to laugh at themselves and laugh at their lives and the problems that we have to deal with day-to-day. i think that ultimately we're much funnier than men and want to laugh more than men.

>> why is late night dominated by men? >> it's a sexist world, joy, in case you didn't notice. >> women are exhausted from cooking and cleaning and everything else. >> i'm not. i love to stay up late. i like to be in that block. >> 58% are women. it won't affect him one bit other than ratings will go up. >> people will continue to be more interested. >> scandal sells. >> scandal sells. that doesn't mean it will hold. >> he has been doing better than conan in the past couple weeks any way. i think this will just kind of take it to another level. >> do you think that sarah palin thing and that problem where he made a joke about sarah's daughter has something to do with the spike in his ratings? >> i think it all helps. everything he does that's outrageous like everything else in culture, the screamers and yellers and those more outrageous, you get higher ratings. >> david surprised people by getting political. never really was. >> we didn't know he was such a liberal. now we know. he's an obama fan.

>> i always knew he was a liberal from way back. that's who he is. >> how come you never hear about powerful women sleeping with underlings. you never hear that. >> good question. >> what is the reason? >> because women want to sleep with men who are more powerful than they are. >> i don't agree with that at all. >> i think so many women want to sleep with grips and electricians. >> especially grips. >> are there any grips in the house? >> where is my best boy? >> they carry the -- you know, they list the bails of hay. they get down. >> how awkward is it for him to make fun of other people committing adultery or whatever he's doing? >> he'll bring it back to himself again. he'll have to if he wants to

stay on and keep doing it. >> gihe understands that he has to. he's in a position where he's being seen as hypocritical. i think in answer to your other question, a lot of times you don't hear about sexual hara harassment as it relates to women because they're not in positions of power like men are and it's an embarrassment factor, what's acceptable and reportable? it's like domestic violence. it was all women reporting now men are coming forward and reporting. >> have you been harassed by a woman in a position of power? >> no, joy, i have not. >> would you like to start tonight, lloyd? >> you're scare iing us, lloyd. >> some comics have been quick to latch onto this scandal. >> a new book out called "why women have sex" with a list of 237 reasons why women have sex. letterman knows the top ten.

>> a producer if "48 hours" was arrested for attempting a stupid human trick. it is reported that the blackmailer was threatening to reveal embarrassing details of letterman's personal life. for example, after sex he would always say stay tuned for craig ferguson. >> now, craig ferguson stayed away from it because he's on cbs and letterman is his boss. conan hasn't said a word and jimmy kimmel has. >> it's hard to make it funny. >> they go for the easy laugh. >> there's nothing complicated about it or layered. it is what it is. it's really hard to come up with something that's really going to knock people's socks off with this story. >> they should make fun of it. they make fun of other people. why shouldn't they? that's their game. i think they should do it. it's cowardly not to. >> exactly. comedians are getting a bad rap

for not making fun of obama. that's another thing. we have to step up a bit and start making fun of the people whose side we're on i think. >> exactly. equal opportunity. >> when there's something to say, you know, it can be made funny, then we'll make fun of it. until now there hasn't been anything from obama or david letterman. >> there's been plenty of stuff. >> there's plenty of stuff with you, sandra. i hear you have a new album out. >> i do. it's a world music album. great guest stars from africa and the middle east that i co-rote with ted mason. it's called "whatever it takes." also i'll be in san francisco starting next tuesday for two weeks. >> very good. >> anybody else want to plug anything? >> i think you should go on the letterman show. >> jeanine, sandra, thanks. lloyd, you're going to stay there. we're talking about "jon and kate" when we come back.

>> randomly purchasing things. i'm sorry. the last thing i wanted was to do this show and end up not being able to pay my bills, and he took $230,000 of the $231,000 that we have liquid and i have a stack of bills in my purse that i can't drop in the mail. >> that was kate gosselin on the "today" show this morning. kate says that soon to be ex-husband, jon, took over $200,000 from a joint bank account but left her with a thousand bucks. what a prince. okay.

he also said he's more famous than paris hilton. this guy is a character out of i don't know what. lloyd, how do you feel about this couple? >> i hate them. >> you hate them? >> pretty much. >> what did they do to you? >> we're talking about them. they're inflicting themselves on me and there's no way most people can go anywhere without hearing about them. >> they really have made a lot of money for that network they were on because it's a top rated thing. it's the biggest thing. >> people are interested. they love children. they love all of the antics. they love marriages that fall apart and people who fight and the utter stupidity of all of reality television and tabloidism and these are stories as old as hills and people are endlessly fascinated by it. >> she has her own show now. he's not on it anymore. will it be boring without him? >> i don't know how boring it will be or not. i think that at this point --

i'm not quite sure what motivates her at this point. whether she's really trying to do something for society and to really talk about the experience of having eight children or whether she's really gotten into just dining out which i hear she likes to do. >> i think she's addicted to fame. >> where did you hear that? >> i heard from reliable forces. >> this is what happens with reality stores. they become very full of themselves. they think they're elizabeth taylor. they really do. >> he took all of the money. >> we don't know -- >> he says there are other bank accounts floating around and there is over $2 million that they received -- >> they have that much? i didn't know that. what's the crying about then? >> it's about ratings. she has to take care of these

kids by herself while he's off carrying on over there. the kids are upset i hear. i believe that because they probably miss the crew. with parents like this, i rather my crew take care of me than jon and kate. >> the crew are the only people who have a job. >> responsibility toward the kids. >> what will happen now? how will this play out? >> you know what i think will happen? they'll do whatever they can do to get everybody interested, to stir the controversy so people watch when the show comes back. that's what it's all about. it's about creating drama and stirring controversy so that everyone watches. >> she needs a job. i wouldn't want to raise those kids without a job. >> she has a job. she's hoping that she can particlea this into an endorsement deal or talk show. watch your back. she'll be over here. >> there she is over there. >> seriously. she's hiding in the chrysler

building. >> that's on the terrace. >> thanks to my panel. the latest outburst from rush limbaugh when we come back.

when president obama took office almost ten months ago, a lot of us hoped for change in tone in washington. a little more civil. a little less nasty. so much for that idea. listen to what rush limbaugh said on friday. >> barack hussein obama. trying his best to bring hope and change to chicago with the olympics and what did we do? we let him down. barack hussein obama was trying to make chicago a bright sinai cesspool on a hill and now look

at what happened? >> okay. what do you think of that, megan? >> i'm not a fan of rush limbaugh. i'm not a fan of keith observerman. i don't like extremism. i don't know how old you are but we look around the same age. we tune out. >> thank you. >> i start tuning out when people start yelling. it's not good for america and politics and it's bad for this generation and what it's getting to be a success in politics. >> it's interesting. david brooks agrees with megan. he said that the rise of beck, hannity and o'reilly has correlated perfectly with the decline of the gop. what do you think of that and then we'll ask susan, our resident republican, the question. >> i'm not a resident republican.

>> a young republican. >> don't say that. >> okay. i think that david brooks is in competition with these guys. you have to take it with grain of salt. they're all in conservative movement. there's this debate going on. there was a long piece in "the washington post" saying we have to get back to ideas for conservatives and not just attacks. the big problem is there's a false comparison. we hear about the left and right. left gets mad about certain things and you have voices. you don't see the overt appeal to racism and other personal attacks as much on the left as you see right now on the left. the barack hussein obama clip you saw is wrong. >> do you see the decline of the republican party right now? >> i see a party that lost an election and just like other political parties when you're out of power for a while, it takes a while until you get your footing again and you decide who your spokespeople are going to be in terms of elected officials who will run for office. so i don't see us in decline. some of the numbers are starting

to come back up again. unfortunately for president obama some of his numbers are starting to go down which means that republicans and democrats can now compete for the independents and people in the middle and i think we'll start to see now that president obama has superman has fallen to earth and is on level playing field, you'll see the conversation become more about ideas as both political parties try to move towards the center. >> the question is do conser conservatives care more about obama losing than what's good for america? look at the report after chicago lost the olympics. it said weekly standard employee wrote in a blog that the staff cheered when chicago was eliminated. that's obnoxious. don't we want the olympics to be in the country? >> if you saw what people did when george bush was president of the united states, it was pretty fair in terms of the way

the liberal media dealt with president bush and his success and failures and everything that went wrong was because of president bush. i think there's a balance here. >> i heard that argument a lot. do you agree we were just as rough with bush as the right wing is with obama? >> i don't think that argument is born out. if you go into a year in bush's term, there was not skepticism in liberal media. arguments on taxes and economic policies that didn't work out were not scrutinized at the time. obviously everyone understanding the media's role in iraq. i don't remember people saying it was a liberal media on the march to war. it's where that talking point keeps surfacing but it's not what happened. >> what do you think, megan? >> i know what it's like to be a republican and just recently i had someone -- i've had people scream republican at me. it's hard in some places. i've had people scream republican at me on the street. like it's a bad thing. obviously with president obama

for me the frustration was that he spent so much money going over there, coming back right now, when we have everything that's going on in this country. look at the income rate. look at what's going on. it's a scary time right now. for him to fly over and then come back bothered me more than anything. >> if he didn't go, he would have caught a lot of flak. >> do you think? >> if he hadn't gone, he didn't give it the old college try. >> people love having the olympics here. america gets it more often than other countries. there's a lot of good reasons for that. it's a boost. >> a 15-year-old boy was beat to death in chicago and chicago loses was on the front page and we're putting our emphasis on the wrong thing. on the olympics instead of hate crimes and things going on in chicago right now. >> that's not obama's fault. it's what the newspapers right. if he had control over that -- >> we're emphasizing the wrong things in general in the media and politics. >> media loves sports.

por sports get a lot of coverage. >> i care about violence in chicago and violence on the street. i have a little sister more important to me than the olympics. >> i think it's personal attacks that people are getting frustrated with. it's not just rush limbaugh. we have a controversy because senator mccain called into question whether general jones is trying to make decisions for national security interest of the country or as mccain put it for personal political maneuvering. i was surprised by that attack. it's wrong. i don't think there's any evidence. no one is pointing evidence that general jones is trying to play politics. they're trying to do a review of afghanistan strategy. >> senator mccain is playing politics? >> senator mccain made a personal attack against general jones and hasn't pointed to evidence that general jones is playing politics and they're trying to figure out what to do in the region. >> ten soldiers died in the biggest assault in afghanistan yesterday. i have two brothers current lll serving in the military. obama met with the head general

once during his administration. people are scared and worried. it's very personal. i'm worried about what's going on in afghanistan. i was recently asked what the media hasn't emphasized the most. it's afghanistan. it's sad that i have to call my brothers on the phone to understand what's going on. people are really frustrated. you can hear me getting emotional about it. >> it's emotional for a lot of people. in this case president obama is working through the chain of command. he has meetings with field commanders and meetings every week with secretary of defense. >> it's not what obviously the -- >> do you think general jones is playing politics trying to conduct this review? >> i agree with my father on this one. >> what is the evidence that general jones is playing politics? senator mccain said that on the senate floor but didn't provide evidence. this is a personal attack without evidence. >> we'll agree to disagree. >> susan, do you want to jump in on this? >> there's nobody who has more equity in terms of questioning the military status and what we

need to do in the u.s. military and our armed forces than senator mccain. i would yield to him and his opinion and his right to stand on the floor, someone who really has never crossed the line and been the more apolitical members of the united states house of representatives. i think he earned the right to call into question of the motives of our leaders in the way he just did. i don't think he crossed the line at all. >> that being said, obama is in trouble right now. it worries me that dick cheney will be next. next time the election comes up, it will be dick cheney because people will say let's go back to that again. >> i think it could be right -- >> it scares me. thanks to my panel. thank you very much. >> regis philbin will join us later in the show. i'll be back in a moment with a few choice words on the whole letterman affair.

i have to be honest here. i never thought of david letterman as a sexual being. he was a whitey mr. rogers for me. when he married his longtime girlfriend it seemed sweet. they had been dating for 23 years but the kid was almost in high school by the time he married her. you can imagine my surprise to find out that dave turns out to be hugh hefner without the pajamas. i wasn't born yesterday and i know that powerful men like to screw around. there's even talk -- listen to this -- there's even talk that abe lincoln may have found sexual freedom outside of marriage in the arms of a man to

which i say so long ago so what who cares and good for her. i don't think this letterman thing would be such a course for laugh if members involved weren't dave's employees but peers like oprah. i don't see that happening. ellen. i don't see that happening at all. women shouldn't have to sleep with the boss to get ahead in the company. they should have the right to advance their careers like everyone else in showbiz by stabbing other people in the back. so i say if you're going to get it on with someone in the office, don't do it with a subordinate. do it with an equal. is regis philbin still around? i saw him in the green room. he's looking very hot. but that's just me.

♪ i like new york in june ♪ how about you >> how can you forget that? >> whether daytime or prime time, my next guest is a television icon and also in the guinness book of world records for spending the most hours on the air. here's a rare clip from his first show. >> they package things. they wrap things today like -- it infuriates me to open anything. >> what do you think when you see that? how many years ago was that? >> that was one of my best

shows. i started a talk show in 1961. it ran three years. then they brought me up to hollywood to follow steve allan on the westing house evening show. and of course i wasn't ready for that. on my show in san diego i produced it myself. i flew the people in from los angeles. i put them up at the hotel. i did everything i wanted to do. i got to hollywood and i found out i got a producer and associate producers and writers and i wasn't prepared for that. i blew that wonderful opportunity. >> look at you now. how many opportunities since then. >> it took me a long time to accomplish where i am now. >> so many co-hosts. >> over the years so many is right. >> you've had -- what was the first one? >> first one years and years ago was mary hart. >> with the legs. >> yeah. she had legs then, too. >> was she sexually harassed in her job? >> not by me. i saw her doing a local show in -- i was going to start a

local talk show on television. ways doing the news on on knbc in los angeles. i knew the show was coming. they wanted me to have a co-host. i asked mary hart. before that it was sarah purcell and then cindy garvey and then mary hart and then kathie lee and now kelly for eight years. >> they never offered me the gig i had a job already. >> you're a character in the business. "saturday night live" captured it. let's look at that. >> look who's back? >> i'm back. >> look who's back? >> i'm back. i never felt better. >> come here. >> very funny. >> do you find that flattering

when you see that? >> i enjoyed it. he's very good. the guy who started this whole thing was david carvy. i'm out of control he would say. honest to god i never said that. >> do you act like that. you scared me. >> with what you went through on that panel of women, i scare you? >> i'm on this new show all by myself. >> it's strange to be without four co-hosts. >> it's different. i don't have people interrupting me. >> how do you think they feel about you getting a prime time slot? >> i think they're happy for me. >> you think so? >> you don't think so? >> when are four women ever happy about another women getting something they would love to have? >> you assume they would love to have another show. i have to work hard. >> they want to sit right here. don't kid yourself. >> sherry shepherd has a new

show. >> i'm on the show tomorrow night. >> how many hours a week do you work? >> four. i'm on four days a week except when we go to -- >> what about the millionaire show. you're on that. you're doing -- >> i went off millionaire show six years ago. can someone help me here? >> i saw you hosting recently. >> it was for ten nights. thank you for staying in touch. >> do you think you saved the network like they say you did? >> absolutely. abc was more desperate than they are today. that's saying a lot. i went on there. bang. the show was an enormous hit. >> kathie always said or was it kelly? >> it was kathie and then kelly. >> do you like kelly the with best? >> i loved them all. they're all my girls, you know.

>> how do you feel about the fact that barbara walters is considered a living legend and you're not? >> maybe because she's lived longer than me. hey, hey. don't ever tell barbara that. >> she's not watching. >> barbara walters is a true icon if you want to call anybody an icon. honest to god. she has laid a lot of trails for people and women. >> she's a pioneer. we wanted to get her a stage coach recently. >> i don't consider myself in her league to tell you the truth. >> why not? you're an icon on television. >> no, i'm not. >> you interviewed fidel castro. and newt -- what's his name? newt gingrich. >> we don't do politics. >> you don't like politics? >> as a matter of fact, i don't like politics.

it's jaded now. everyone has to follow the party line. >> what about when fdr was in office? we'll take a break. >> another break? i'm just warming up. >> you're warmed up with regis. you're warmed up now. you'll come back with more.

got to put up right now, he may survive. he will survive this few weeks until people either make up their minds about what they're watching on the other networks and come back to him or maybe they don't. >> why did he give up his desk? the desk, all comedians need notes in front of them. need a desk. that's a big mistake. i want to call him. >> you're exactly right. i -- i was almost going to call him and say, jay, don't give up the desk. the desk is everything. >> exactly. >> he wanted a different look. he wanted to have more of a variety show than what he had. why not do what they were doing before which was a big success? >> i know. >> anderson cooper has been sitting in for you. does he have your moe joe. >> anderson cooper every night dreams about getting my job permanently really. he doesn't want to grow up like the wolf, he wants his own job. >> i think he has grown up like the wolf already. now, what about this halloween show you have coming up?

i've heard you're doing -- what costumes are you doing in. >> i don't know this year. yet to be decided by my producer, gelman. he makes all the decisions. >> doesn't he listen to you? >> we all -- >> isn't he really your bitch instead? >> how dare kathy griffin say that about gelman. i think we started the whole thing about the host getting dressed up for halloween. >> we're going to get dressed up. >> do you do it every year? >> every year. it who who ruins my makeup and hair. >> something changes. drives you crazy. we come up with a pretty good show. you know, i think it's a lot of fun but i hate going through it. >> one year you came out as a woman and kelly came out as a guy, right? >> exactly. i did that i think with kathie lee and with kelly as well. she does a funny regis, kelly. >> she does? >> oh, yeah. >> before we go? >> where are we going? we're done? >> now you want do stay?

before you were -- you know what, i know you don't do politics. how about pulp culture? are you upset jon and kate gosselin are getting a divorce? >> she was on the show. i may have made a big mistake. i have a thing against reality shows. i think they're fake. i think they're produced before they begin. i think people know where they're going, what they're going to say, what the situation is. these things don't happen. you know that. thee guys, the producers tell them, hey, this is -- i thought it was a setup. the divorce. now, i think it's headlines like a divorce, especially when a woman has got eight kids. >> exactly. i don't care for him at all. >> well, i didn't say i loved him either. i'm talking about what reality shows can do. >> i know. >> is this a big rush? you're a very attractive woman. >> thank you, regis. >> honest to gorksd and with this lighting you could go all the way. >> the lighting is fantastic. my thanks to regis philbin. made him look gorgeous, too,

grill you, but it just doesn't all fit together. >> to me it's a very dysfunctional family, and that's the best way i can describe that. i just don't know what to think of the whole thing. >> all this while misty's mom now sits in a florida jail cell, extradited from tennessee after being arrested for allegedly stealing checks. now that she's back in florida, have police questioned her about haleigh? >> they're going to have to come up with enough evidence, or she's going to have to get an overwhelming amount of fear or pressure from her family to come clean. otherwise, she's just going to hide and run like she's doing right now. >> i'm not hiding anything for anybody, and if somebody has something to do with it, let them fry. so be it. and tonight, breaking news to kansas. a beautiful teen girl vanishes. police say she's in danger. 18-year-old coed keighley ann yalea disappears just after witnessing a violent fight

we would have her. >> it may very well be she doesn't know what happened to the little girl that night. but that doesn't mean that she was there or wasn't there. >> now that you've been told, whether you accept it or not, that your wife has flunked a poly, have you asked her what happened? >> i asked her, but that -- i don't get any answers. >> okay. gone again. where is misty croslin-cummings now? is she on a vacation? i doubt it. she doesn't have a job. no income. what is going on down in satsuma? or orlando? i want to go straight out to marlaina schiavo, nancy grace producer, on the scene there in florida. marlaina, come on, what is going on now? >> mike, i mean, the tensions are rising between ronald and misty. she's taken off again. she needs her space. now, we know that the

investigation has heated up -- >> whoa, whoa, wait, she needs her space? >> you got it. she needs some space, mike. she -- you know, a couple weeks ago the investigation was kicking up again, we saw a lot going on. there was a draining of a pond. there were allegations against misty, she was failing these polygraphs, and you know, she took off, she went to orlando, she got some space from ronald, she came back last week, but now, mike, she's gone again. she's on her way back to orlando with her friends. >> okay. who is this friend of hers that she's on her vacation, walkabout, whatever you want to talk -- whatever you want to call it? who is this friend? >> it's a girlfriend of hers, mike. it's a person she's met somewhat recently in the past year that she's become close with. and it's someone who is helping her out right now during this rough time. >> now, i know it's a rough time. she disappeared -- the bottom line is, where is little haleigh right now? she doesn't have a job. no income that i know of.

help me out there if you know of any job she's got or how she's earning any money. maybe she's down in orlando sitting by the interstate with a little cup in her hand and a little sign, hopefully "help find haleigh." also joining us there in florida is teresa neves. she is the grandmother of the missing 6-year-old, haleigh cummings, and father -- and mother of father, ronald. miss neves, thanks for joining us again. >> thank you for having me. >> look, what is going on with this family feud? and i'm not talking about the tv program. >> okay. which family are you speaking about? >> with the cummings family. you know, with ronald and misty. what is going on down there? >> there's a lot of tension. it's very tough, strain on a relationship when there is something that you think maybe needs to be told and you're not getting that information. you know, it puts a very big strain on a relationship. >> recently you spoke to nancy

and she says, and i have to agree with her, the facts of what's going on and her actions, everything just doesn't fit together. >> i agree with you. it does not fit together like it should. and we are working to cure that i hope. >> i want to go to ellie jostad, "nancy grace" producer joining us from the control room. ellie, when is the last time that misty croslin held a job and was making any kind of money? >> well, that's a good question, mike. we don't know of any jobs that she's held recently. and as we explained earlier, her family is out of jobs. ron cummings has lost his job because he's been looking for haleigh. i don't know where the money is coming from. >> miss neves, how is your son, ronald, supporting himself, and how is misty supporting herself now, you know, and her son?

>> ronald received unemployment from his time and misty, the friend that she's staying with tends to pay for everything. so. >> is she independently wealthy? >> i think maybe her husband is independently wealthy. >> okay. so ellie, is she staying with this woman in orlando, or is she staying at a disney hotel somewhere? >> you know, that's not really clear exactly where she's staying. now, the last time she was in orlando she was spotted at universal. apparently, she was taking in the sights there, but she did have on a "where is haleigh" button while she was there. >> i'm glad she had on that "where is haleigh" button. so she's out at disney world on vacation from a job that she doesn't have and she's just kind of hanging out just to kind of get away. let's unleash the lawyers. eleanor odom joining us from

atlanta, prosecutor in a nearby county just outside the city. peter odom, defense attorney. and alex sanchez, noted defense attorney out of new york. alex, if misty -- she's got an attorney. if misty is your client, what are you telling her? are you telling her, hey, why don't you go on down, cool your heels down in orlando, you know, take in the sights, enjoy yourself? while her daughter's still missing? >> i tell you the truth. i'm mystified at the criticism that you're leveling against her. she's 17 years old. for months she's been under the scrutiny of the police. what is wrong with her going down to orlando? even if it's for a few days to take some vacation and clear her head and maybe when she comes back maybe she will be prepared to speak to the police. >> okay. >> and reveal some important information. >> ask me -- answer me this. if she is so concerned about finding her stepdaughter and she's the last one that had -- that knows where -- who was with haleigh at the time, why isn't she here talking to police out

there looking for her stepdaughter? >> because she has answered every single question that could possibly have been leveled at her at this point. there's no additional questions i think the police could ask her. >> oh! >> she's gone there. she needs to clear her head. and i think it's in the advantage of the investigation for her to go there and maybe speak to a friend and come back and say you know what? i want to reveal more information. >> okay. >> what's wrong with that, mike? >> did she do that the last time she was down there? no. no, she didn't. >> hopefully, she'll do it now. >> we're going to talk more about why she's on vacation when we get back. but as we go to break right now, a special get well tonight to nancy's mom, elizabeth. nancy's not here with us tonight because she's at the hospital with her mother. mrs. grace, everyone at the show wishes a speedy recovery, and you're in our thoughts and prayers.

what we need is for misty to come down here and tell us the truth. >> i'm trying to do everything to find her, you know? answer any questions i have to because i know i didn't do anything to that little girl. >> misty can relieve this pressure by telling her attorney we need to go town to the sheriff's office and really lay out in clear terms what i was doing from 8:00 p.m. to 3:00 a.m. >> do you believe she left the home and left the children alone, ronald? >> absolutely not. >> you stand very strongly behind misty croslin's story. what do you make of police saying that she has the answers? >> i have to leave the

investigative part of this to law enforcement, because, you know, if i go with every whim and every accusation then i'm going to be flipping back and forth in my life, and you know, what we stand, you know, we just stand for haleigh here. we just want haleigh to come home and i want them to find whoever this is and i don't care who it is. but we want haleigh to come home. >> i'm mike brooks in for nancy grace. okay. help us answer this question. where is haleigh cummings? where is stepmom, misty? she's in florida with her friend at disney world in orlando. she's not at home in satsuma. she's not there looking for haleigh. handing out flyers. she's not helping ronald, her father, her husband and haleigh's father look for little haleigh.

she's down cooling her heels because she needed to get away. we're taking your calls live. straight out to lakisha in indiana. thanks for joining us. >> caller: hi, mike, how are you doing tonight? >> good, thank you. >> caller: thank you for covering for nancy. all her viewers wish her mom to get better. >> we all do. as soon as we heard this today, you know, nancy always says prayers work and they do. we need your prayers also. >> caller: i believe in god totally. without god, nothing's possible. >> absolutely. >> caller: you answered my question when you spoke, his mom is nervous about where misty is at and if her and ronald was arguing. i was wondering about the letter that was written by someone that was sent out from the jail. i was wondering if law enforcement investigated that letter that was taken to the newspaper company? >> yeah. marlaina, there was this mystery letter that came about. what do we know about that letter? it was very strange. it was to the "st. augustine

record." can you tell us about that? >> that letter, mike, came from a party friend of misty's, it's a girl who knew misty and was partying with her before mailly we haleigh went missing. the contents of the letter had something to do with the night haleigh went missing. police have investigated it, and for the most part nothing really came of that letter at all. >> ellie, there was also a mystery letter. what do we know -- i mean, very, very strange. it was basically -- it says, i'm reading right from the note, "check the back of father's mobile home from the right end of the mobile home extending out. continue for 540 yards straight and at that point go north 12 yards, dig 2 1/2 to 3 feet. will strike metal covering an old well. inside check black plastic garbage bags. circumstances extend statewide

and beyond." it's signed capital s.a.m. what is this? >> mike, this letter was deverod off by a woman who walked into the st. augustine record. she was a brown woman wearing blue scrub. after this video was aired on tv, the woman came in, identified herself and said she was the messenger. she was dropping off this letter from a man in his 80s. she says he's a former fbi informant, that this guy has special information and that he was able to give her this very detailed letter. now, police did check it out. they did go search this area and didn't find anything. they still want to talk to this man, if he exists, and find out what he really knows. >> did they drill this woman? i mean, did they really talk to her, finding out what her relationship is with this guy, and, you know, having been -- having been, you know, assigned with the fbi for six years i can tell you it's pretty easy if she knows his name or have an

address to find out whether or not this guy truly is an fbi informant. we call them -- they are called serialized because when you're an informant for the fbi, you come in, get finger printed, photographed and do a background check on you so they know whether or not this is true. >> right. right. >> her story's changed several times and i know my kids did love her. they told me that, and i just hope she would not have nothing to do with this.

birth. >> what's her date of birth? >> this is [ bleep ], we need to find her. >> they haven't left me alone for six months. i've been the one, the main focus. they just need to move on and look for the right person. >> i'm not hiding anything for anybody. and if somebody has something to do with it, let them fry. >> i believe haleigh is alive. i have faith in god to take care of my baby girl and find her.

and i don't care who had something to do with it. those are the people who need to be put away and bring my baby girl home. >> i'm mike brooks in for nancy grace. well, little haleigh cummings is still gone. vanished in the middle of the night. and the one woman that i think holds the key to finding her is down in orlando, again, vacationing or getting away with a girlfriend of hers. i want to go back out to our attorneys. eleanor odom, peter odom, alex sanchez. eleanor, with her going away now for the second time, and when she got back the first time, didn't go with her attorney over to talk to police. you know, as a prosecutor this doesn't look good for her. >> no, it doesn't. and why is she going out of town? what's the motivation? i mean, i've had a rough day at work but i don't get to go to disney world and have a good time. but look at some interesting

things. the very first thing i'd look at is how ronald referred to her when he made that 911 call and said, what did you do with her? and then how she failed the polygraph. her story's wishy-washy. she's traveled. she won't answer questions. all those things look very suspicious. >> yeah, you know, and also the initial police report that i've always said, he called -- he came home. and the whole timing of everything, as a former investigator, was very suspicious to me, too. and he just happened to say oh, yeah, and my dumb b-word wife. peter, i know you used to be a prosecutor, now a defense attorney. i asked alex. i want to ask you. would you tell your -- would you tell your client, if misty was your client, stay in town, cooperate with police, or go on down to disney world, relax? >> mike, she's not a person of interest. she's not a suspect. you know what i'm telling this kid? first of all, go on with your

life. >> first of all, person of interest, you know, as far as i'm concerned either you're a suspect or not. she hasn't been named. but when you fail three polygraphs now, two from law enforcement, one private polygraph -- >> and not a shred of evidence after all of that that she did anything wrong. she's a citizen who has the right to go anywhere she wants, and i would tell her misty, go and live your life and -- >> she's the one that holds the key to what happened that night, period. >> and she's told the police everything, mike. >> no, she hasn't.

i want to get to the bottom of what happened. i don't know if hypnosis is going to do it. they already tried to hypnotize her. >> aren't you of the mind that you should try anything? >> absolutely. if that's what we need to do, then that's what we can do. >> i wish they could have took me instead of her. you know, because i could have fought. you know, she's only 5. she can't really do anything. >> everything she says is crazy. >> i don't know where she is. >> we would love to have a break in this case, and we really would not care who it implicates as long as it brings haleigh back to us. >> what is her story about what

happened that night? >> the same thing that she's telling police, or whoever, that she put haleigh to bed, done some laundry, went to bed, and woke up to the door propped open. >> investigators have received well over 4,000 tips so far. >> you never know when the one's going to come in that can make the case. our main goal is the same main goal, and that's to find haleigh and get her home. >> i do not think that that many people, with a $70,000 reward, are going to sit at home and not say anything. anything that would bring haleigh home, that's what we want. >> was the bed made? >> no. i was sleeping in that bed. how would the bed be made if someone's sleeping in the bed? i wasn't the only one sleeping in it. but how would it -- me and his son. how would the bed be made if we were in the bed sleeping? >> they've been on me for six months. they haven't left me alone for six months. i've been the one, the main focus. they just need to move on and

look for the right person. >> i'm mike brooks in for nancy grace, and we're taking your calls live. right now i want to go back out to teresa neves, grandmother of missing haleigh cummings. miss neves, when is the last time ronald spoke with misty? >> today. >> and what did she have to say? >> about what? >> about what's going on with her, when she's coming back, if she's going to talk to police when she comes back? >> she has not made any arrangements to talk to police as far as i know. i know that we have encouraged her to do so, ronald has encouraged her to do so, and right now i don't know what her return plans are. >> so right now what you're saying is she's not -- there's no plans for her to come back to satsuma at all right now? >> well, no, i'm not saying

that. >> okay. >> she's not gone forever, i'm sure. >> but when is she coming back? ronald didn't talk to her to say, hey, you know, when are you coming back to go talk to police? >> ronald may have said that. i cannot tell you. i do not live with ronald or misty. i do know that when she left -- i mean, before she left we have all encouraged her to speak with the police. so. >> and i know the main thing here that we want, miss neves, and please understand this, is to get little haleigh back alive. >> absolutely. >> that's the bottom line here. that's why we at the "nancy grace" show are here talking about this all the time, because we want to find out where this little girl is and who's responsible for taking her. that's the bottom line here. i want to go out to -- >> i appreciate it. >> absolutely, miss neves. thank you. i want to go out to noted medical examiner dr. joshua perper, author of "when to call the doctor," chief medical examiner broward county. dr. perper, great to see you

again. >> thank you. >> we know that haleigh has turner syndrome and she needs medication. without her getting the proper medical care, you know, i hate to say this, how long can she survive? >> well, it depends how severe is her condition, because her syndrome has a whole range. her syndrome is due to a genetic disorder in which instead of having xx sex chromosome she's missing one sex chromosome, one "x." so she's xo. she has certain physical abnormality and has a certain degree of mental abnormality, and some of those children do not need any life-saving medication, so it depends exactly or what stage of clinical impairment that she is. >> i want to go back out to

marlaina schiavo, our nancy grace producer there on the scene in florida. marlaina, as law enforcement, you know, as part of this task force, are they on a regular basis going to hospitals, emergency rooms to take a look to see if maybe someone possibly has visited there with a little child that fits the description of haleigh with -- exhibiting signs and symptoms of turner syndrome possibly? >> well, mike, the investigators are doing everything possible to find little haleigh. so, i mean, you know, you can imagine that they're going through all lengths to find this little girl. i mean, they follow up on every single possible tip. and they have checked in with every possible person they can talk to to find her. >> i want to go back out to the lines. melody from rhode island, thanks for joining us. do you have a question or comment? >> caller: yes, i have a question. when casey anthony was lying to the cops, they arrested her for lying. now, i know they're saying misty

is being -- she's -- everything's not measuring up, a nice way for saying she's lying. they can't arrest her for lying? >> well, to arrest someone you need probable cause, a set of facts and circumstances that would lead a reasonable and prudent officer to believe a crime has been committed, is being committed, or is about to be committed. and with that case they had evidence and they -- i mean, she took the cops around and basically, you know what, i'm not telling you the truth, but in this case i don't think they have enough probable cause to charge her with lying yet. but i still think that she has the key and knows what happened that night. but time will tell. i want to go out to dr. jeff gardere, psychologist and author of "love prescription." jeff, thanks for joining us. >> mike. >> you know, everybody has different coping mechanisms.

is -- you know, is this -- could it be a coping mechanism for misty to just take off and just try to get it out of her mind in dealing with her stress? >> i think that's an excellent point and a great question. this is a young woman who is exhibiting self-defense mechanisms that are certainly highly inappropriate. haleigh is missing, maybe dead, god forbid. she had a very close relationship, misty did, with haleigh. so this is not the right thing for her to be doing. i think it's simply a case of if you can't stand the heat get out of the kitchen. she's close to a nervous breakdown. ronald's all over her case. the media's all over her case. the "nancy grace" show is really pushing her to get the truth. and i think she's just skipped town because she can't stand the pressure. >> you know, that's a good possibility. but you know, i still say she should be here with ronald, trying to find haleigh. i don't care if it's out there passing out flyers. go down to orlando, pass out flyers down there.

but to be seen wandering around universal, having a good time, you know what? it just doesn't look right. back out to the lines. janet from alabama. >> caller: yes, mike. i have a question about the pond that was drained. could it be deep enough that if her body was in a black bag that it could have sunk under the mud and so forth that was in there? >> that's a good question because, you know, a lot of ponds have a lot of silt at the bottom. marlaina, you're down there. this pond that they drained, did they find anything? >> unfortunately -- well, actually, fortunately, mike, they did not find anything. i mean, teresa neves sitting here with me right now, she wants them to be looking for a live haleigh. but yes, this pond was drained and there was no signs of anything like -- >> quickly, ellie, what led them to that pond to begin with? >> well, mike, there's a couple of things that led them to that pond. first, we know that they were searching bodies of water around the area where haleigh went missing.

also, there was this letter that marlaina referenced earlier, that suggested the bold could have been disposed of in a pond. now, police won't say one thing led to another. they say they were planning to drain that pond anyway. >> well, you know, it's unfortunate that they didn't find anything, but i'm glad that they could at least check that off their list of somewhere that haleigh is not. to tonight's safety tip. the last person you want coming in through your front door is a burglar. here's what you can do to stop them. make sure all doors have dead bolt locks. if you don't have them, buy them. never, ever, under any circumstances leave a key under your front doormat. i don't care. and always, always check the peephole before answering the door. verify the person at the door who is there to claim -- are they a delivery person? make sure they are who they say they are. make sure to stop newspaper deliveries and mail deliveries if you're going away.

a pile of newspapers and a full mailbox indicates an empty house to an intruder. and if being a good neighbor, let someone know you're going to be away. if you see somebody outside the window next door, call police, dial 911. for more information on what you can do to keep your house safe, head to homesafetycouncil.org. d

had vanished from her bed in the middle of the night. i want to go back out to our attorneys, eleanor odom, peter odom, and alex sanchez. all right, alex. you and i talked. you don't think -- you think that she can go and do what she wants to do. but when she comes back, if she was your client, are you telling her to go to police and -- because come on, you've got to agree with me, alex, she knows more than what she's telling. >> i'm interested, and i'm sure she's interested, in seeing that child returned. so the first thing i would do is have her come to my office. we would sit down, have a full discussion. and i would certainly encourage her to speak to the police and provide any information which would be helpful in the return of this child. >> peter. yes or no? does she know more than what she's telling? yes or no? >> no. absolutely not. she's told the police repeatedly. >> thank you. that's no. eleanor? >> well, i think, of course, she should talk. of course, i'm the prosecutor. i'm looking at a completely

different light from these two defense attorneys. but her actions speak louder than words, mike. look at what she's doing and what she's not doing, and that's talking to the police. >> her inactions speak louder than words. >> exactly. >> listen to law enforcement. you know, i'm a former investigator, and i agree with them. she knows more than what she's saying. back out to the lines, lisa from louisiana. thanks for joining us. >> caller: yes. i have wondered -- i know ronald had supported misty early on saying he believed that she was being truthful. is that still his opinion now in light of the new things that have become -- surfaced in the last week? >> well, let's ask ronald's mother, teresa neves, joining us there in florida. is he still supporting misty's claim that she doesn't know anything? >> ronald is doing the best that he can to encourage misty to get with law enforcement and tell them anything that she may have forgotten, may have left out.

ronald is -- he is trying to do both, you know? he wants to support his wife, but he wants haleigh home more than anything and he is going to do whatever it takes to get her home and get those answers. >> and we want to see little haleigh come home. thank you, miss neves. we're going to switch gears now. we're going to go to overland park, kansas, where a beautiful 18-year-old coed has been missing for almost a week. take a listen to this. >> the urgent search for a beautiful 18-year-old kansas girl is on after she's disappeared. how could it happen somewhere like kansas? but tonight, it has. cops on the lookout for keighley ann alyea last seen at her own home. >> at the louisburg apartments by 87th and grant is where she was last seen by a girlfriend staying with her but it's here 62nd and foster where police recovered the missing teen's mazda although one neighbor

tells us he first spotted it parked by a dumpster the day she went missing. >> it was just parked there with the windows down and it had actually been there for a few days so i just wondered because it had been raining. >> after days of searching, law enforcement finally tracks down keighley's green mazda. keighley, nowhere to be found. >> i'm mike brooks in for nancy grace. a beautiful 18-year-old coed, just seems to vanish into thin air in overland park, kansas. what happened to this woman? i want to go straight out to marcus moore, reporter from cnn affiliate knbc joining us by phone there at the overland park police department. marcus, what's the latest from overland park? >> mike, the latest information we have is that they are still searching 18-year-old keighley, who was last seen tuesday night or early wednesday morning. and we know that over the weekend on sunday around 6:00 they found her car.

that car was impounded as they started to look for -- or they're going to look for some evidence. i know for some time they didn't go into that car because they were waiting on a search warrant. and so the question for us tonight is what, if anything, have they found inside this car is going to point them in the direction of where keighley may be or what may have happened to her? >> marcus, have they said whether or not -- or any witnesses who saw this vehicle parked there, have they said whether or not there was any visible evidence, possibly a sign of a struggle? what do we know? >> we know very little, mike, about the car. and i can tell you that one of the witnesses we spoke to earlier today said he saw the car parked there and that the windows appeared to be down. if that was the condition the car was in when police found it, we don't know. but i can tell you the car was involved -- did have some front end damage done to it which was related to an incident that happened earlier in the week,

where her car was damaged. now, that's all we know. we don't know what the circumstances were surrounding that or exactly how it got damaged, but we do know from police and family members that there was some damage done to that car, that there was a police report filed that would have been on monday of this week. how it plays into all of this, we don't know. we do know, mike, that they have talked to a number of friends and acquaintances, including a pair of ex-boyfriends, and at this point police have not named any suspects. but they have questioned a number of people, including one man who they later released. so that's where we are with this right now. we know police are looking for this girl who they believe is missing and in danger. they haven't said whether or not they believe foul play that i have played a role in this, but they are concerned, mike, that they haven't heard from her, she hasn't called and -- >> and they believe because of the circumstances that she could be in danger. i just want to let everyone know

one of our guests tonight, who is not going to be able to join us now, was pat hayes. he is the father of keighley, and he and his wife of the girl. he and his wife apparently have been called to the police station. for what, we don't know. we hope to find out very, very soon why they were called to the police station. >> i want to go out to the nancy grace producer. the police report, i was looking at it earlier about this accident that marcus was just talking about. it was strange here. help me understand what exactly happened. >> we talked to pat hayes, her father and the way he describes it, she took in a friend of hers who was having an ongoing dispute with her brother. the friend and her own brother. incidentally the brother happens to be her ex-boyfriend. the friend and the brother got into a fight that night and they

were arguing and it became physical according to her father. she was not involved, but when the brother was leaving the scene, he hit her car, damaging temperature she was listed as the victim on the police report. >> as we go to break, a get well to nancy's mom e elizabeth. nancy is at the hospital with her mother. mrs. grace, everyone here at the show wishes you a speedy recovery and you will be in our thoughts.

>> i'm mike brooks for nancy grace. this beautiful coed seems to vanish. she was last seen in the wee hours of early wednesday morning, but her car was discovered on sunday and witnesses said it had been there for a while. i can tell you as a former

member of the fbi's evidence response team, there is a lot of evidence that they can get from the vehicle. they should be able to tell if there was any of her dna or anyone else's dna and hairs and fibers. do you agree sf. >> absolutely. they are going to look for evidence of any strangers who were in the car and not supposed to drive the car and evidence of blood and look for any kind of damage to the inside of the car which may point out to a struggle. they look at this carefully whether they find something that is another question. >> there is just a plethora of stings from inside the vehicle. if i was the tech who was working that scene, i would be vacuuming it with a special vacuum to find anything they could. this police report, they said that the cause of the accident was battery and criminal damage.

we will hear more of what happened to her. tonight, let's stop to remember army sergeant titus reynolds, 23 of columbus, ohio. killed afghanistan. a talented musician who played electric guitar and loved god and his country and video games. was a month away from celebrating his first anniversary with his wife. leaves behind grieving parents, two brothers and sisters. titus reynolds, an american hero. our biggest thanks to you for inviting us into your home. see you tomorrow night and until then, stay safe.
