italian border with austria and sloslovenia. he handed himself in at a local police station there. >> reporter: the family of the deceased murdered meredith kercher, they are speak out today. >> reporter: that 21-year-old woman meredith kercher was brutally assaulted and murdered. her brother and sister were in court yesterday to hear the verdict and they talked about their feeling about extradition earlier today. >> if somebody is found guilty of a murder, and if an extradition law between the two

countries, i imagine it would be a difficult precedent if the country such as the u.s. didn't choose to go along with laws. >> reporter: that's a major question but it's one we'll get to in 12-15 month's time. the case now goes to the italian supreme court. they will make a final ruling on amanda knox's or innocence and they will decide whether to seek her extradition. she said pointedly she'll fight it until the bitter end. bill: it has been an incredibly long road for knox. in november of 2007, more than six years ago. meredith kercher's body found in her apartment. the investigators said she was killed the night before.

me. >> reporter: what happens now? will italy demand knox be sent back? will the u.k. agree? bill: president obama with a new plea to the top companies in america to try to get people working again. >> the jobs market is the long-term unemployed. because they have been unemployed so long, folks are look at that gap in the resume and they are weeding them out before they even get a chance for an interview. bill: walmart, apple, ford, they are urging them to give those people another look. does he have a point? >> reporter: yes, he does have a point. the longer you are unemployed the less likely you are to find a job. there are 4 million americans who have a long term

unemployment problem. many employers record them as damaged good and they won't hire them and the the wants to reverse that. bill: will his plan work or help them? >> reporter: he cannot command private enterprise to get out there and hire these people. what he can do is use the presidency as a bully pulpit to tell the world we have this problem and we want to you help us figure it out how to do this. look favably on the long-term unemployed. there are a lot of companies in america today making the running in america the high-tech companies. look at facebook. it's only got 6,300 workers. if they increased that by 10 fold it wouldn't make any difference to the unemployment rate. and they wouldn't be hiring the

long term unemployed without the skills. the president need to stimulate the private sector and so far his policies of taxing and regulations and high government debt failed to get the private sector to start moving. bill: you would argue that's preventing us from having a higher growth rate. >> give us 5, 6% growth in a year and you go a long way toward solving the unemployment problem. bill: are we growing a lost generation? >> reporter: that would be a harsh judgment but people do say that. young people are not he merging from high school or college with strong jock prospects. bill: thank you, security.

risk of not signing up weren't even born. it underscores the problems with obamacare. i wish the president would have talked about fixing obamacare. i think that's right, reasonable and responsible. bill: m.k., you didn't get that the other night, did you? >> that would have been cool for them to say we messed this up. i think he would have been applaud for that. but that's not what we got. as this goes forward we'll have more advertising budgets blowing through the roof and not signing up a lot of people. bill: back to california. we like richard but we are not quite sure this is going to do the trick. do you know how much money they

overzealous prosecutors and bias investigation and coercive investigations like these things happen. i'm not crazy. arthel: joining me now, a new york city homicide prosecutor. were you surprised by this new verdict? >> we are 7 years into this case so i don't know if it's matter of surprise. but what is the latest twist and turn. the big difference in this case is if you were in the united states at any point and there was a trial and you were found not guilty, that is the end forever. very different in italy. arthel: otherwise you are walking into the issue of double jeopardy. how will the state department allow amanda to be extra dated. >> the practicality is amanda knox is not going back to italy.

now there is a new set of appeals. if this conviction is confirmed they will make decision to ask for her to be extra dated. once that happens there will be wrangling in the united states. then they have to make a decision. they can only extradite for something you could be convicted or serve a sentence for here. the big question that will be looked at is this double jeopardy question. she has had three full trials and the second she was found not guilty. arthel: she served 3 years in prison in italy. the extradition road is a long and winding road. you said you don't believe amanda knox will serve time in prison in italy. is it possible she might serve prison time in the u.s.? >> possible. but now we are talking about the world of possibilities, not track calculates.

italy could ask can she serve in your prisons. but then it's even more likely it will be a faster answer for the u.s. saying no. because under our laws she could never have gone to trial this third time after being found not guilty the second time around. >> the laws made by a judge in italy. would you like to think there are no hidden agendas. what do you think is behind this? >> they have a different system. their jury is made up of 6 citizens. then they have two professional jurors who are judges. they guide the proceedings. we are not italy so we are looking at it from the outside in. but there is a lot of talk about the prosecutors having lot more influence on the investigation. a lot more politics flying. while certainly being someone dedicated my professional career to being a prosecutor and

you heard from the house minority leader nancy pelosi leader yesterday, they keep saying, well, the web site's fixed, and it's better. what this number tells us is that it really isn't the web site. what it really is is how much it kansass and what you get for what you pay. now that the web site has reached pass bl functionality by government standards and folks can get through and look at prices, this means people who expected to be helped by law now do not expect to be helped by the law, either can't afford what they're getting, can't afford what they've already bought or don't think it's going to work out for them. this is an interesting pivot because this is the last place that the administration can look, that the president can look for new supporters for the law, and if they're not coming -- if they're turning the other way, in fact, you wouldn't expect much hope for democrats this fall. bill: also politics again, right? ten months away. also in that same poll kaiser among the uninsured, how has it affected you, 39% say they're

department regarding the final environmental impact statement on this. but if you read the tea leaves, some here suggesting that the administration may be, may be moving towards approval of the keystone pl pipeline -- xl pipeline. earlier this week the ntsb and the safety board of canada issued a rare joint statement to impose new safety rules on freight trains that carry oil. we've already seen one major loss of life in quebec be last year. secondly, yesterday senator john hoeven of north dakota where the booming bakken oil shale fields are located said that companies are being forced to deliver their product by rail instead of by pipeline. eventually, they imagine that as much as 100,000 barrels a day could be delivered by pipeline. and thirdly, the administration continues to come under increasing pressure from environmentalist. earlier this week the head of the greenpeace movement said that the president is undermining his own climate

change plan. he said, quote: adding insult to injury, the fossil fuel industry helps to boost export of its dirty energy abroad from the keystone xl pipeline to proposals to create huge coal and lng export facilities. even the president's visit just yesterday to that ge engine plant in wisconsin is raising eyebrows because the engines produced at that plant are oftentimes used to provide power at oil exploration fields. arthel: and, doug, as you know, some of the critics are saying, hey, listen, guys, if it ain't used here, that oil from canada is going to be used somewhere. >> reporter: that's exactly right. and the president has made it very clear that approval of the keystone xl pipeline will be based on the environmental impact and specifically on carbon pollution. here he is from his big climate change speech last summer. >> and our national interest will be served only if this project does not significantly exacerbate the problem of carbon pollution. >> reporter: proponents

believe if that oil were to be used here, the carbon musician problem would be much less than if it's shipped abroad somewhere where pollution controls are much less rigorous. arthel, back to you. arthel: doug mckelway, thanks a lot for that update. bill: it has happened yet again, another cruise ship hit with an outbreak of sick passengers, separate ships now. the caribbean princess docking in houston with nearly 200 sick passengers. casey steegal's following that. he's in dallas. when did the ship get in, casey? >> reporter: well, bill, it approved last night at the bayport cruise terminal down in houston. the cruise line insists it came back one day early because of dense fog that was supposed to blanket the area over the next couple of days and not the illness. but nonetheless, more than 3100 passengers and 1100 crew members onboard the caribbean britain sis which is owned, by the way, by carnival cruise lines. it left texas last weekend bound for the western caribbean and

wasn't scheduled to return until tomorrow. but a cruise line spokesperson confirms there was a norovirus outbreak on board, something you don't want to hear. and during the course of the cruise, 165 passengers fell ill. she said by the time the ship docked yesterday, only five people were sick. now, members for the centers of disease control and prevention will board and evaluate this outbreak. the ship will be scrubbed down and sanitized. bill, those folks were given a 20% discount or their next cruise -- for their next cruise for their inconvenience. bill: only 20%. not a good week for cruising. this has happened twice now. >> reporter: yeah, you said it. when this news broke yesterday you just had to utter the words, not again. obviously, all week we've been covering the issue up in your neck of the woods, about 700 people getting sick onboard a royal caribbean cruise line. they had to dock early there in new jersey, the explorer of the

seas was supposed to be a lovely ten-day cruise. people started getting violently sick. the cdc boarded that ship in st. thomas to investigate. some passengers even had to be quarantined to their rooms. and according to info from the cdc, that was the highest number of people that have gotten sick aboard a cruise ship in about two decades, bill. bill: wow. casey, thanks. stay home.

[laughter] he's a pretty independent, wonderful guy, and i think the documentary gets a peek into his life that was a very frustrating thing as members, you know, those of us that know him and love him felt that he wasn't known very well to the public. and this is -- bill: i tell you, ann, i watched the documentary, and it was hard to turn it off. i heene, i wanted more -- i mean, i wanted more. and i was fascinated by the journey, and that's a journey that went over six years plus. >> right. bill: how did you feel when you watched it and you saw what happened? >> it was tough to watch it, because we hadn't seen it until the sundance -- we were at sundance when we watched it for the first time, and it was tough to watch because it brought up all those feelings and emotions that you went through as a family. but on the flipside i'm thinking

to myself, wow, that's a good marriage, and wow, those are great kids. that was a takeaway for me. yes, we lost an election, but look what they have and really in life how do you define success, and for me success is do you have a good relationship, do you have a good family. and that was success for me. bill: one of the enduring principles that he talked about in his concession speech. we talked about the less serious side. now look at the serious moment from 2012. >> our only hope is ohio, right? yeah. hanging our hat on one state. all right, bye. yeah. >> i just can't believe you're going to lose. >> doesn't it make -- it makes your life a lot better, doesn't it? >> yeah, but still, i just don't believe it's possible your going to lose.

bill: how difficult was that? >> that was tough. it brings up all those feelings that you had. and i believe this, i really believe this, you know, we lost but truly the country lost by not having mitt as president. bill: how do you think president obama's doing? enter oh -- [laughter] bill: a year into the second term? >> i think i'll be polite and nice and not comment on that. bill: at the end of that clip, he said what do you think you say in a concession speech? and you ask, it's finished? >> yes. i know. i always believed he was going to be the president of united states. in my heart i just knew the country needed him, and i believed he was going to be there. i knew he was going to make a huge difference for americans' lives. we've spent so much time on the road, we felt and felt the hurt of so many people that were suffering without jobs, and i really believed mitt was going to be there to really help the country and help the country get back on its feet economically.

bill: the fill maker is greg whitely. they did a terrific job, and you gave them incredible access, too, up to the point where he won michigan, and he shows up at the door in a bathrobe. but he was filming your family back in 2006. and you decided not to release anything after the first campaign. but since you believe this is his last -- >> right. bill: -- if it truly is, now is the time to put it out. i just saw this poll in new hampshire this week that puts your husband number one by, well, he's a clear favorite in that state. >> there well, you know, it's a neighboring state, and we spent a lot of time -- he was governor of massachusetts, i'm not surprised to see that, and i think there's a lot of lingering feeling across the country that sort of sadness. i see, i run across people all the time, and they said they're still upset about the election, they're still really sad. i can understand that. but, no, we're not up for doing this again. bill: no. >> no. bill: are you over it? >> yeah, i think i'm over it. i mean, life is good.

the women's hospital up in boston that benefits brain research as well, so you're doing a really good thing. thanks. bill: one final point here. this came up in the documentary here. they talked about he wanted to write a concession speech about how he will earnestly pray for the president and the first lady. what about those principles in america today that endure? have you thought about that? >> they do endure. and, you know, america, it's a wonderful country. it's a great country and we had the opportunity to see the goodness of the american people while we were there. extraordinary. bill: a once in a lifetime opportunity. good luck with the book. you're doing great things, okay? my best to your husband and your whole family. >> thank you. bill: thank you. ann romney here in new york. arthel: food and family, can't beat that combination. coming up, a man who once defended a cop killer is now being considered for a top position in the justice department. what the widow of that murdered police officers is doing about that. bill: also, she parachuted from

>> new developments on

immigration reform. house republican leaders calling for a path to legal status for many of the 11 million undocumented immigrants. pushing back on amnesty claims and boehner says it is overdo. >> i said it is time for the congress and president to deal with this in 2012. this problem has been around for the last 15 years. it has been turned into a political football. i think it is unfair. i think it is time to deal with it. >> tucker carlson is here. good to see you. what would a gop immigration reform look like versus the

democrats? >> the republican would stress boarder security. that would be a predicate. but both contain pathways to citizenship and large-scale legal immigration to the country. i think it is going to be a tough sell were the republican leadership. the donor-base is for this. but the base of the party, the middle class, isn't sold on this. you want immigration at higher levels of employment but we don't have that. there are a lot of people that think it would depress wages for the middle class >> let's talk about the timing. why now >> the truth is we are not sure. there are a lot of theories. there is nothing reporting from

gop leadership to give us a sense of now. but after the midterm election, there idea is there is going to be republicans in the house and maybe senate that are opposed to any immigration reform. part of the factor is there are under a lot of pressure from people who pay for donors to hike immigration. the business community is for increased immigration. they think it is good for their business. democrats believe it means now voters for it. everyone is for it except for middle class republican voters. >> let's look at a quote from speaker boehner he made on a house retreat. he is saying we will address this on a step-by-step common fashion that starts with

securing the boarder and enforcing the laws. these are the standards we are willing to go. nancy pelosi said it is a special path to citizenship her nothing. if democrats insist on that we will not get anywhere this year. what do you think about that, tucker? >> there is not that much distance between two proposals. the democrats pay lip service to security and republicans put it first and foremost because their voters want it. but both would increase the immigrants to the country and provide a way for people here to be legal.

there is an insurgancy as well. >> are you having chicken wings on the set this weekend for the super bowl? who is going to win? >> a team from the western part of the country. >> really? >> he is always on a limb. denver and seattle on sunday and countless businesses want to count cash in on a $600 million event. how realistic are these numbers? >> economist are saying $30-$125

million might be more like the money this year. it is costing some business numbers from the streets shutdown. and new york city has more hotel rooms. nearly 110,000 in new york and that doesn't include new jersey. miami has about a third. phoenix only about 20,000. the days inn near the stadium was asking for $1300 and now $400. we spoke to someone at the casa hotel in midtown who says across the board a lot of rooms are opening up. there are cancelations due to weather. fewer rooms are booked and better rates now for the weekend. >> this is like a ripple in the

pond for new york as opposed to say phoenix or dallas that are nowhere near have the number of hotels to absorb that many travelers. >> reporter: there are still more people here than there would be any other winter. >> are businesses cashing in? someone is making money? >> reporter: yeah, especially the bars and restaurants close to the stadium including a bar called reds. it is hosting a huge private party for the pro-football hall of fame. they will be feeding and boozing 2, 000 people and then serving during the game and hosting an after party. >> is everybody going to make more money? >> yes, everyone will. definitely. >> a lot more? >> i would think so.

i hope so for their sake. >> and he is hiring more people to work that day. tourism from new jersey says people want to be close to the game even if they can not go. >> i will see you this weekend. good to have you back. i talk today a hotel manager in midtown and he called it a bust. he said they were are 55% capacity. and rick is right. he said the town is told they will cash in. and not that many do in the end. >> it happens that way. >> unless they are in new orleans. >> growing outrage over obama's no nominee for a top civil rights leader after he helped get a cop's killer charge overturn.

in danger of not being able to take advantage of the six amendment. but the american bar association came forward saying the lawyer did his job within ethical boundaries. and he wasn't defending the innocence, he was just arguing with the way the death penalty was about. >> i am actually against the death penalty so i am not opposed to that. but why does we have to be appointed in the justice department? the president is turning the justice department into the a political arm and this is

another instance -- let's say if the republican president nominated the defense attorney of george zimmerman i am pretty sure the west would be outraged over that. >> let me jump in. the widow of the deceased officer is going to testify at the hearing today. what impact do you think her testimony will make on the conformation? i will stick with you mike. >> powerful. they are opening up the fresh and raw wounds. it is looking compassion at the least. >> ebony, what do you say to that? >> her emotions need to be considered and that is what the process is for. i would not be oppose today a nominee of someone who did represent george zimmerman. i think that is what the process
