otanher bird that looks exactly like him. ya... he'll figure it out. only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty. ♪ ♪ >> tammy: good evening, everybody. welcome to a live, special, inside the issues edition of "tucker carlsonde tonight." i'm obviously not tucker. e i'm tammy bruce filling in for that fabulous man during his m fishing vacation. i hope he is having a great time. it's an honor to fill in for him this evening and be with you on friday. the full autopsy of jeffrey epstein has been released. does it bring us any closer to solving the mystery if it is a mystery of his death? giving us a little bit of insight, as he does, fox medical contributor dr. marc siegel joins us now. >> good to see you.

>> tammy: the worldwide speculation, considering the nature of what had gone on, the fact he was able to die in some fashion in that prison. one of the highest profile people in the world. yet he seemed to manage to pull it off. we now have the autopsy. they say unequivocally it was a suicide. do you buy that? and are you comfortable with that finding? >> i think we have to start right there. i think the new york city medical examiner was veryt definitive on this, that it was, a hanging, a suicide. i think we have to accept that. it's quite definitive. it doesn't answer other questions, like why he was taken off suicide watch? was he actually attacked by the cellmate before that, around the 26th of july? why he was unobserved? why he was in a cell by himself? why he had a bunk bed in there? why he had regular sheets? >> tammy: it's like a perfect storm of everything you want to pull it off. >> so that makes you wonder how that happens?? people don't just fall asleep. cameras are not just turned away. i tell you one thing that did

come out today. if it was a suicide and a hanging -- i'm accepting that -- it means it wasas forceful. for the bones to break, we have been talking about that. the hyoid bone to break you have to have a pronounced force. almost like what they used to do in the 1800s and when you dropped you toward the floor. >> tammy: this is why you are not supposed to have bunk bed in a cell. that allows you some height to do that. and in this process, many people this is strange, we don't think about this because the lives don't involve that. where you manage to do that,t, use your own weight. you pass out. even the weight is as a result of a dead body that pulls you further down and finishes that act. is there anything that you would have expected to see if it wasn't suicide that was missing? any other -- any other signs, any other evidence? >> that is a good point. something they would have looked for sign of a struggle or bruises on the body or

something about how the neck was. but look, i talked to a vascular surgeon who says this amount of fracture in the neck is unusual for hanging. so, you have to envision f he flung himself off this bunk bed with a lot of force. and i have to look at it that way, right now. it's less likely than what i expect. but it's certainly possible. >> tammy: forget the height. remember kate spade. rest her soul. used a scarf and the doorknob on her bathroom door. no height whatsoever. epstein is 66-year-old man. where the indications are the older you are -- >> bones break more easily. >> tammy: the bones break more easily in men and women. if you are doing something deliberately to do damage to your neck -- he was a large man. he was tall. he wasn't small. the weight, then, becomes even more serious when you lose consciousness. for those of us who have gone

through knowing someone who committed suicide, you know if they really want to do it, they will do it. but in this case, this is what is remarkable. there were, allegedly, we may find there were cameras. but some of the othert evidence is the medical examiner responsible for asking or knowing if there was video evidence of someone going in the cell? would they look at the context of the surrounding -- >> that is so important, tammy. what you are saying is so important. that is what a medical examiner has to do. it's not just the cause of death. it's all of the circumstances around, whether it was enabled or whether it wasn't. i want to spend a second here talking about what a psychiatric disgrace this is. because someone is on suicide watch, i don't care what the reason is. you don't take them off suicide watch and put them in unobserved area where they can kill themselves. you transfer them to a psyche hospital or prison ward. >> tammy: there are a lot of questions, in what seems to be somewhat corrupt dynamic throughout the government. thank you for joining me. i appreciate it. earlier today, another one of

the medical experts had interesting things to say about epstein's autopsy. >> you don't break vertebrae in a suicidal hanging in which this scenario is a leaning into. if they tell me he hurdles himself down, fine. but if they are telling me he was kneeling down and he broke the hyoid bone and cervical vertebrae, no way with all do respects to the pathologist. i'm sorry. the medical examiner's office and my colleague, an observer, i'm sorry. i do not buy that. >> tammy: that was, some of you might recognize the voice, dr. cyril wech. and jen is a forensic expert and she is joining us now. thank you for coming by. there are a lot of politics involved, sinister actions involved, medical studies involved. the nature of the horrible dynamic of suicide. listening to dr. wech, he was

very suspicious about things that a lot of other people are agreeing on when it comes to the expectation of certain bones breaking, et cetera.ec what is your take on what we found out today? >> i think a lot of people are going to be a little bit uncomfortable from the forensics community.y. as you discussed with a lot of people, it's very unlikely and very on rare to have the hyoid bone broken on a continual compression of air suicidalap hanging. it happens often when they do it from a height. sometimes when they jump, things like that. but to have the hyoid bone break when you are compressingn it yourself is very rare. so i understand the discomfort. but as you mentioned with the other expert, it happens that the medical examiner has a lot more information than we do when they take the manner of death into consideration. so, it may be the case that the medical examiner has seen a tape, perhaps from the prison cells, where there was no one else in there with him, and if they have seen something like that, then they know for certain this was a suicide.

and so, the murder mystery at some point is gone at this point. >> tammy: americans, we all. get used to the tv shows. right? the "c.i.s." shows, the forensic shows. we love them and we get a sense that there is always some kind of evidence to give us the answer within an hour. in this particular kind of case, and i asked dr. siegel about this, when it comes to if there had been a struggle and assault, that would have been apparent, right? when you look to exclude over other information that you might look for to eliminate that this was a homicide. >> they did mention multiple bones were broken. and that did sound suspicious to me yesterday, but the fact they have come in with not undetermined manner of death c but, in fact, a manner of death that says suicide. m they must know something else. there must be other evidence that is pointing to that. as you mentioned, a lot of times, you have a lot of bruising and other things like that, that they are taking into consideration.

>> tammy: i think we need to wait for more information on which cameras were operating. if anybodyindicate was going past his cell, but perhaps cameras were watching these guards sleep, or there was proof that any other individual in that area was, in fact, found in a particular place. and the medical examiner would care about something like that, as well, about access to the deceased. >> absolutely. they are going to take everything into consideration before they have the manner of death. and, of course, so, the murder mystery is somewhat solved. but the legal issues here are staggering, frankly. i mean, definitely, i can't imagine that the family is not going to sue the prison system at this point. because there was so much going on that perhaps shouldn't have been going on. or vice versa, perhaps. >> tammy: one of the silver linings here is a lot of focus on what happened. new york will have to dole

deal with that and so is the federal government. jen thank you for joining us. i appreciate it. >> sure. >> tammy: epstein's death just one of many things that is making the story more and more bizarre. that is an understatement.t. new reports say epstein's personal possessions includingre a painting of president bill clinton wearing a blue dress that he has flung across the chair. you see it there on your screen and wearing a pair of red pumps. i have a pair of bumps that look like that but they are probably a tad smaller than what is on his feet. this is, by the way, hanging, allegedly, in a couple of reports in the mansion in new new york. and the associate that the women have been looking for --n ghislaine maxwell -- emerge from hiding in an in and out in los angeles area. that is the life. mark steyn had an excellent run of hosting this. and he joins us now. this is burning up now for an encore appearance. >> you're stepping into my red

pumps. >> tammy: they look awfully darn good. if we could ever have imagined ever saying "painting of bill clinton wearing a blue dress and red pumps." even we would have thought we were insane. >> i think i saw this as a cartoon in whatever year that was. 1998.ea where his defense supposedly was it was my blue dress. you know, nothing is going to change. the way the people feel about this. certainly not the autopsy report. basically, as you said, it was a perfect storm. it was, in fact, too perfect a storm. when everything goes wrong. when everything in the system goes wrong. and then you have an autopsy report that is at odds, as jen was just saying. a she basically said what is in the autopsy report does not explaine the medical examiner's verdict. i mean, the only survey they

have done on this, there's like 239 people from the coroner's office in quebec. six hangings had the broken hyoid bone.be that means that this hanging is untypical of 97.5% of hangings. >> tammy: in the meantime, ghislaine maxwell did something typical. she did go to an in and outh burger, apparently. this is a recognizable woman. we have seen a photograph of her there. she has not changed anything about her look. she is sitting there. i'm a native of los angeles. you don't really eat at the in and out. that is why they call it "in and out." you go and leave. you do a drive through. what in god's name is going onou with this woman? she was there with a little dog and was alone and was surprised people were taking her picture. >> she wasn't that surprised, which is what surprised me, actually, tammy. i met miss maxwell about 25 years ago, briefly. she is a woman who sort of has stumbled from one mystery

including the mysterious also supposedly suicide of her father to another. she does not -- let's put it this way. if she thought she was in any danger of serious jail time she would be in london. she is a british citizen and doesn't have to be in the united states. so the fact she is wandering in and out of the in and out burgers suggests to me that whatever deal was cobbled up a decade ago in florida, she thinks pretty much is keeping her safe. >> tammy: i think we have seene with the government, the d.o.j., the f.b.i., epstein himself, perhaps this woman. they have gotten away with so much, for so long, it may be inconceivable to them that something is about to happen. >> yes, it may be that. i mean, i think if it was just a prison suicide fiasco, you could put it down to incompetence. >> tammy: yes.

>> but what casts the doubt over it is the terms of the oddly phrased plea deal. >> tammy: oh, yeah. >> of a decade ago, in which parties that are not party of the agreement are absolved of any future prosecution. >> tammy: that's going to be interesting to see if that holds, because i don't believe that was made with those individuals. very interesting development mark. thanks so much for being here. the only man i want here to talk about bill clinton in a dress. that is it. all right, guys. congresswoman rashida tlaib apparently despises israel even more than she loves her grandma. she won't visit the country after they grant her a visa. that's next on our "inside the issues" special. ♪ it's a familiar feeling. the first chill in the summer air, and each day shorter than than last. this is what you live for. it's your season. so head to bass pro shops and cabela's fall hunting classic sale and event.

♪ >> tammy: hi, everybody. back to tonight's special. welcome aboard. i appreciate you being here. "the new york times" is shifting its coverage from russia to racism. the paper spent two years as one of the chief pushers of the false russian collusion conspiracy theory. it's completely fallen apart. the paper recently held a crisis town hall meeting of its own staff. where the paper's executive editor said the papers is transitioning from suggesting trump is a spy, because that was fake, to suggesting that he is a racist, which, of course, is also fake. larry o'connor is a radio show host and a fabulous one at that. he joins us now.ab larry, you know, the news over the last two and a half years since the election has been extraordinary. it's been remarkable and fabulous to be an american, but

then we see remarkable, important american institutions like "the new york times" devolve to a keystone cop comic book. give us your thought of the impacts of this and what we are facing. >> it's a great point. o remember, after the election, "the new york times" apologized. mr. sulzberger, the publisher, apologizing, saying we got it right.ec wrong. something happened in the 2016 election we were following, the voters and the sentiments and we underestimate and they promised they would get down and cover the news as it is fit to print. i i they slipped right back to this pattern. they've always been an organ of the left, they've been this way forti decades, and they slipped right back into this pattern. it's more than just getting this story wrong. the executive editor in this meeting according to -- >> tammy: let me stop you there. some of the audience may not know.

there is an audiotape of this crisis town hall that was leaked. so, we are not just guessing at an attitude. as an example, bring up part of what he is saying at this meeting to his staff at "the new york times." we built our newsroom to cover one story. we did it truly well. now we have to regroup. and shift resources. and emphasis to take on a different story.as you know, larry, this is not news gathering. you usually have to wait for the news. this is a propaganda planning meeting to decide alreadydy what it is there going to say and how they are going to say it. how can we describe it any differently? >> it's an astounding admission. i thought a newsroom was supposed to be built around, i don't know, covering the news. >> tammy: yeah, weird, right? >> that should be the priority. but no, they decided at "the new york times" that they

were going to build their newsroom around one story: the russian collusion conspiracy hoax -- which was a hoax. by the way, manufactured from propagandist in moscow. >> tammy: but we know what theos new message is going to b, and what the next two years of "the new york times" will be like. let's bring this up, a final statement from them about what now the plan needs to be. the chief, push the trump racism theme.th race, in the next year, i think this is, to be frank, what i hope you come away from this discussion with. race in the next year is going to be a huge part of the american story. now this, remember, is a meeting. the context is how they are going to shape the narrative. and that is what they have already decided. >> yeah, and tammy, the two stories, the russian conspiracy, collusion hoax, and the racism story, they have one common denominator. that is it is going to pit americans against each other. >> tammy: correct. >> it is going to divide us for the first half of the trump presidency with the shadow

hanging over from before when he was inaugurated. >> tammy: it's horrible. >> it painted the picture as the president as a puppet of foreign government and those of us supporting him as stooges for vladimir putin. that divided us, and now this will divide us. "the new york times" is working against this country. >> tammy: another horrible thing is the destruction of "the new york times" itself. how dare they. thank you for joining us tonight. >> thank you. >> tammy: congresswoman ilhan omar and rashida tlaibas are best known for the feuds with president trump. but now they are in a fight with the nation of israel as well. yesterday, after some encouragement from president trump, prime minister benjamin netanyahu banned omar and tlaib from visiting the country due to their support of the anti-israel boycott effort. then the minister said that tlaib could visit for humanitarian reasons to see her grandmother in the west bank. tlaib's response, "no thanks." apparently her dislike of israel outweighs her love of her grandmother.

the attorney and founder of the lawfare project and brooke joins us now. welcome aboard. thank you for coming on with me. >> thank you for having me. >> tammy: you have got a fabulous piece and i want everyone to look at it on foxnews.com about this issue. but what we see unfolding here seems to be pretty typical. you lay out in the article about why israel did the right thing. why it was important. americans have been listening to rhetoric and, of course, they support policies and attitudes and efforts to injure the state of israel, right? to effectively facilitate the wiping off of the map. is this, of course, the thing any normal nation would do when dealing with the individuals who advocate this kind of talk? some are saying, of course, that they have a right to be there, or certainly as u.s. congress members.ou what do you say about that? >> well, i think before the

nation engages in these type of the political hysterics, we should all sit back and look at the facts. number one, these are congress women whose trip was paid for by a group that spread so much anti-semitic jew hatred, theyit actually posted not only neo-nazi articles, but they spread the blood libel that jews kill christian babies. it was reported that the congresswomen were going to meet with the popular front for the liberation of palestine, a designated terrorist group. that in and of itself is enough to deny them entry on national security grounds. but what i think americansne should be especially concerned with is the fact that you have u.s. members of congress who are cooperating with foreign entities, including the p.l.o. and the arab league, not only to

boycott a u.s. ally, but to facilitate unlawful discrimination against jewish persons. what rashida tlaib and ilhan omar advocate is for a jew ban. a ban on doing business with jews who live in judea and samaria. >> tammy: they actually had an opportunity, didn't they, just a few weeks ago, to go with the democratic caucus, actually, which was going to israel. and they declined. it's interesting, because they seem to give a lot of individual attention when it comes to their attitudes. if they were with the caucus, maybe it would have been more difficult to engage in rhetoric or to meet people who are not certainly sympathetic to israel and hostile to israel, if they were with the entire democratic caucus, at that point. so they declined that. isn't that right? and then they decided they were going to go on their own. >> right. right. they wanted to go on a propaganda tour. this was not a fact finding mission. there were no meetings set with israeli officials or the palestinian officials. and what is incredible is the

double standard that we are seeing. every single country in the world agrees on one thing, whether it's a democracy or dictatorship. they have the sovereign right to control their borders, to control who comes in and who comes out. in 2012, the u.s. government banned palestinian official ashwari entering in the united states for security reasons. italy, italy bans leila for her connections to pflp, the same terrorist group at issue with rashida tlaib and ilhan omar. every muslim majority country in the world, saudi arabia, the emirates, kuwait, lebanon banned israelis. where is the outrage? >> tammy: what i would likeop people to do, take a look at your article at foxnews.com. thank you for joining me today. they did do the right thing. i appreciate you explaining it for us here tonight. thank you very much. well, america's second amendment has existed for almost

230 years, but now the press and the democratic party want to abolish it based on a handful of current events. that is next on tonight's "inside the issues" special. ♪ tonight's "inside the issues" special.

♪ >> tammy: welcome back to this special edition of "tucker carlson tonight." not even three years ago, think about this, barack obama was president of the united states. but now, his legacy as chief executive is drying up. first trump came in and began undoing the policies. but now even the democrats are turning on the former president. in the last democratic debate round, candidates took turn bashing joe biden for his connection to the obama policies for other issues. now new report says obama personally urged biden not to run, and is worried that his gaffe-filled campaign will further damage obama's legacy. buck sexton is going to give us clarity on this.

thank you for coming on tonight. >> thank you for having me. >> tammy: it is an interesting turn of events. we never would have imagined this. we know that barack obama destroyed the democratic party with obamacare and the 2010 shift. they lost a huge number of the back bench, the talent back bench. he was really not worried about the health of the party going forward or major messaging. do you think now that -- biden is still nicely ahead in the polls.t do you think this problem will be the thing that undoes him and puts someone else as the front front-runner? >> biden has been the candidate in the lead up to this point through default and he has been riding on the fumes of the obama presidency. he doesn't have obama's coattails anymore to hold on to. and when people learn more about him as a candidate, they start to think, who is this guyfo exactly? for eight years, he was v.p. he was somebody yeah, he was at a lot of events.

his name recognition went up dramatically, which isp a big difference from 2008, when he couldn't get more than 5% in any poll because people didn't know who he was. but then you saw eight years as v.p., they think okay,in continuation of the obama legacy. but then hillary swooped in and was the candidate last time around. if he was so great, why wasn't he the guy then? he seems to be the guyn' now because there's nobody else that has come to the forefront that the party can get behind. i say some of the new things that are coming up like maybe they won't give him so many events late in the day or come up with a new way so he doesn't get tired. if he wants to be the leader of the free world, we can't bern finding ways to make this easier for him. >> tammy: the primary season is for that. you find out what people are made of. you learn who they are. you have some name recognition with vice president biden. that is it. but you find out, that is how people learned about trump. you find out if someone is consistent and who they are. if they are going to talk about theo policy. it's not a joke.

the president has high energy. if you have the energy and the wherewithal to deal with this. and we saw that report in "the hill. in order to stop gaffes maybe they need him to stop talking at certainp points. it's only going to get more intense, isn't it? >> absolutely. >> tammy: as more people fall out from the democrats and you have a general election. it's impossible for them. >> not just the pressure that will increase when there are fewer candidates in the race. clearly, biden is goingg to be around for quite some time. it's also when all of a sudden donald trump who we saw last night in the usual form he shows, which is a guy who is an incredible entertainer,ls a tremendous amount of energy and also a fighter, especially on the campaign trail. they will have joe biden up against him. keep in mind, you haveheilil hae democrats saying that trump doesn't have the mental facultyn' to be president. they talk about the 25th amendment. well, as a result, you are gonna look at biden's age, the temperament, the energy, that is all completely fair game stuff

now. democratice thehe party repudiating as they did on the last debate obama's legacy -- >> tammy: i got to ask you, though, i got to ask you this. when we talk about that people say barack obama's concerned about joe biden. and he is concerned about the campaign. h is that what barack obama is really concerned about when he tries to stop joe biden from talking or running? a >> no. this is a very -- this is quite an obamaism. you mentioned at the start of the segment, obama was incredibly successful running himself atre different points in the political campaign. the democratic party was in shambles when he was done. and his success on the ballot box never translated into other people. i think that's why joe biden, this time around -- >> tammy: it will happen this time. >> they are hoping that biden gets surpassed but doesn't collapse. that is why obama is stepping in. >> tammy: we have to go. i have a feeling this is a premonition here of what we see coming up. buck, thank you for joining me. >> good to see you. i appreciated. >> tammy: democratic candidates are not just pushing for new gun control. they want to seize guns from law-abiding owners, and

imprison them -- that's like you -- if they refuse to go along. chief breaking news correspondent trace gallagher has more on that. >> tammy, this is a illustration slippery slope that conservatives refer to when they talk about liberals and gun control. kirsten gillibrand appeared on tv saying assault weapons should be banned nationwide, there should be a buyback program. and then, gillibrand was pressed on whether those who don't want to sell the guns should be criminally prosecuted. watch. >> the point is you don't want people using assault weapons. and so, the point is, if you are arrested for using an assault weapon, you're gonna have an aggravated felony. >> that is a yes. fellow 2020 hopeful beto o'rourke on the same page releasing what he says is a new plan to end gun violence. in addition to mandatory gun buy-back on assault weapons, the plan also calls for creating a nationwide gun

licensing system and registry, and requiring universal background checks and red flag laws. and o'rourke calling on people to stand up, tell the truth and offer bold solutions without fear of political ramifications to finally make progress and saving lives. meantime, msnbc host joe scarborough said today for voters who may think that elizabeth warren is too liberal for america, the alternative is much worse. watch. >> at least she won't threaten the safety of members of the press. at least she won't inspire mass shootings. >> yeah, he was a once g.o.p. congressman. he added that she would respect the constitution norms and that congress would, "balance her out." tammy. >> tammy: all right, trace. thank you very much. i don't know if we want somebody who needs to be balanced out in that way. but, thank you, trace. collian is a lawyer and second

amendment advocate and he joins us. thank you for joining us tonight. a lot of scary things. major american politicians, candidates for president ofca the united states, suggesting things that are more, something that more than you would hear in china.r it's concerning that the high level individuals think that the things would work. let me ask you, sir. if there were some kind of national confiscation program, do you think americans would comply? >> no, i highly doubt it, actually. if you think about it, the last time we had an issue of confiscation in this country, we started a revolutionary war. so that puts thing in perspective pretty blatantly at that point. i know a ton of americans who would not succumb to the idea or notion of havingns weapons confiscated from them based on their second amendment right. from that standpoint what i have a hard time trying to understand is why with we consistently talking about

ar-15s when they account for almost less than 0% of gun deaths? there are more people stabbed to death in this country than killed by ar-15s. yet that seems to be the talking point of all the democratic presidential hopefuls. >> tammy: they hope that people are ignorant. that most people won't have that, so they will give up on it because it won't necessarily affect them, and then they can describe it in any way that thee choose, right? taking more steps toward the cliff. you know, we had the horrible shooting in philadelphia. a man with a number of crimes, a huge rap sheet, including gun crimes, had -- he should never have had the firearms he had. we know, of course, it's the old adage here that criminals don't care about the law because they'ret criminals. they will always get what they need to go. like in prohibition, people had enoughf they money and they were inclined. when it comes to personal

safety and personal freedom, there is talk by some of the candidates about a tax, a new tax, or a fee. wouldn't that just make it more possible for the rich to enjoy their second amendment, while shutting out once again the poor and the disenfranchised? >> i said it before and you'll say it again. i have been saying it for years. the vast majority of gun control disproportionately affects people of lower economic means. >> tammy: correct. >> and the people in these places need guns more than the individuals like you and i or the people pushing the gun control measures. >> tammy:he correct. >> so, this really has nothing to do with saving lives. it's about scoring political talking points to get elected. >> tammy: and isn't it about fear? right? still pitting americans against americans.s. they are trying to do that on sex, on race, now economic status. the right, the rich versus the poor. and it seems like everything is technically about how you

can make americans suspicious of their neighbors. >> absolutely. i'll add on to that, it's not only about fear, it's about control. for them, they understand the type of empowerment that a firearm provides for individuals in this country. this country was founded on the concept of individualism and the ability to protectbi your life and this country. from their perspective, if they can remove that idea from us, by taking away certain firearms or justwa firearms in general -- >> tammy: psychological -- >> they are in control. exactly. >> tammy: i hope people in washington watch this and they know it's all of america who knows what is going on here. thank you for joining me. now, next up -- >> thank you for having me. >> tammy: thank you, sir. americans have enough to deal with. but could they be battling visitors from the next one, too?wi our special takes a look at haunted baby monitors, just ahead. but first, it's time for "final

♪ >> tammy: welcome back to tonight's inside the issues special. this show has closely followed the possibility there could be

unknown entities in the skies above us. i believe that. but could they be closer than that? right here? a new "wall street journal" profiles many parents think they can see the ghosts, j specters, and mysterious movements on the advanced baby monitors. that means a baby is there. some parents describe blurry humanoid figures and others see bright orbs. bret larson joins us. what is the deal? >> it's interesting. as more of us put cameras in the home, we capture unusual events. in some think their devices are catching a glimpse of something supernatural. this is a baby monitor. the colors are there to indicate movement but the family says the baby was sleeping peacefully in the bassinet and nothing was moving. was something paranormal watching the baby? and another group was alerted

to movement. when they checked the videone ad they found the closet door open. neither opened the door. on the replay they see the door open itself. was it paranormal? no. something fell and it was a blanket. one camera manufacturer said the most likely explanation is dust particles, curtains moving, light reflections causing the technology to go a bit haywire. one suggested it was not installed incorrectly. but some don't accept that explanation and they think it's like the loved ones who died, keeping a watchful eye on their home and newborn. paranormal investigator suggested to install a second camera to see if they're captured on both devices. i actually have a camera that watches over my dog. and sometimes, when it switches over, it is capturing the dust particles. >> tammy: you are a skeptic. i'm a believer.
