>> 21 minutes past the hour from new york estimate jurors in florida, northeast florida, jacksonville, are deciding whether a man who shot and killed teenager after an argument over loud music, in fact killed the teenager. on the left here the defendant, michael done n. on the right, the 17-year-old. the year was 2012. the man opened fire on the teenager. in fact an suv full of teenagers, and killed davis. it happened outside a convenience store. dunn sayings he asked the teens

to down down the musician. they threatened to hill him, which is no dispute. dunn's lawyers call it self defense. prosecutors point out he did not call 9-1-1 and in fact fled the scene. he and his government -- girlfriend got in the car, ored a pizza, took the dog out for a walk, slept, and then drove two and a half hours home and then contacted police only after he was aware somebody had gotten his license plate. cops never found any weapon in the suv. jurors were set to watch surveillance video from the store which captured the sounds of the gunshot. look here. >> gunfire gunfire [ gunshots ]

>> oh, my gosh, somebody is shooting. >> did you hear that? there was about three shots, then about six shots, then there was a break, and then there were more shots. listen to that again. okay. they're going to rerack the tape -- it's not a tape. listen to the shots. [ gunshots ] [ gunshots ] >> my gosh, somebody is shooting out of their car. >> you heard that. three shots, then more shots and then a break and more shots. is that the part where it becomes premeds -- premet tated. his girlfriend testify he never told her he had seen a gun. didn't tell her on the drive to the hotel, didn't tell her when they got the pizza and didn't tell hem going home. never mentioned the gun. the jurors asked to see a dummy that showed the trajectory of

the bullet. they call it a -- anyway, it -- they used it as a display in court. was not actually entered in evidence so it was a a thing to demonstrate with so they couldn't see. let's bring in a lawyer, john, there's a lot of evidence against this guy. >> there is. there's a lot of evidence, and the problem is not so much whattal dunn did but what his fiancee said. during testimony, she spewed what michael dunn said, specifically he mentioned the gun, which is the entire reason he got out of the scar and shot. his subjective belief he would be killed, but if he was, why wouldn't he mention it to his fiancee. and then as you mentioned, the consciousness of guilt. the flight from the scene and not calling the police.

all will be considered by the jury. from an analytical point of view, if they believe he reasonably believed there would be imminent danger to life, they could acquit him. and that could come from the 9-1-1 call who says he saw a red suv go around and allegedly stash something it butters may use their common sense and convict him of these counts. >> one of the points of contention here is the suspect says that the kids threatened to kill him. but there were witnesses to this verbal exchange, and one witness says they didn't threaten to kill him, and the suspect came back and said to him, are you talking to me? but instead he said, you can't talk to me like that. in other words, they said things he didn't like and the accusation is he got out of is car, shot three times, the car

moved, and shot three more times and then the car win down the road and he aimed and fired and tack out taughtlights. shooting a fleeing person, that's your moment of premeditation. >> that could be the argue. but during the closing arguments, d.a. mentioned there was rage, and anger. those words are indicative to me of voluntary manslaughter, not premeditation. even if he tide say, hate that thug music, it shows the anger in his thug person, and maybe he didn't have a moment to reflect, which is why i think the attempted voluntary manslaughter and voluntary manslaughter are certainly something the jury can convict. >> the jury has asked a couple of questions today. they've been at it a little more than eight hour. nice to see you. >> thank you. >> animal lovers won't like this. not zoo in den mark plans to ail can young, healthy giraffe.

it turns out hamid karzai actually did it. 65 taliban prisoners the united states has called dangerous, accused them of killing american soldiers, are now set free. a word from a spokesman at a

prison in afghanistan. today president karzai said the prisoners are of no concern to the united states, afghan officials said they could find no proof they were criminals so they were let go. american -- they said the evidence against them was never seriously considered and say the afghan governor bears responsibility for results. >> lea is here. they pleaded and pleaded with hamid karzai. sounds like he is working directly with the taliban. >> they didn't just plead with him. they released documents detailing evidence they found against these prisoners who have now been released. that evidence contained pictures of ied making material,

bookmaking material, wires, remote control devices and then weapons which are used to shoot down u.s. helicopters. the two incidences of the large's numbers of deaths in afghanistan is when u.s. fors were shot down by a rocket-propelled grenade. so there's a lot of evidence provided. >> you're a veteran of the longest war we have ever had. what does it feel like to hear they're letting prisonersers who killed americans out of jail. our partners. >> i have to say that personally it feels like a slap in the face. went on these missions where they risked their lives to find these guys. not just the seals and special forces but the brave men and women in afghanistan, and then we go to extensive -- into detail as far as collecting the information on the site, it's called site exploitation, and seems as if it's being discarded

and not considered. >> he decided for the betterment of him politically locally he needs to go with the taliban. that is beyond all reason. and why the is doing that. he is saying afghanistan is a sovereign nation to for his part he is trying to express that, and if you look at the recent history, not too distant history in afghanistan. the leader when soviets withdrew, who had been supported by the soviets, it's recorded the taliban hunted him down, castrated him and hanged him. so president karzai may be hedging his bets. >> maybe next time we go over there we'll read a history book. it as recuring them. >> does seem to be. and it's frustrating. it's something that it was a consideration when the prison was handed over, and when the decision was made we were concerned that prisoners would be released, and american forces are saying that we're finding them returning to the battlefield, and these are

people who will probably continue to be a problem for news the future. >> good to see you. thank you. i'm sure you heard about comcastic. this huge merger could faked what tv we watch and how much to pay. comcastic bought time warner cable. less choice. what does this mean for monthly bills in jerri willis is next. what would you do?" ♪ [ woman ] i'd be a writer.
