>> terry: young woman who accused in de anza baseball. >> the jury decided the six players were not liable in a civil trial. janelle? >> two of the jurors blowing down when they read the verdict but the other jurors felt confident with their decision. they said they made the right decision based on the law. this all stems from a case, a house party, a drunken house party back in 2007. a criminal case was never brought against nine men because of lack of ed.

they were accused of gang raping a 17-year-old girl. civil cases were brought against some of the boys. some were settled and some dropped. two of the remaining boys went to trial. there was one facing negligence and one was facing negligence, rape and emotional distress. jane doe was seeking $8 million but the majority was cleared of all charges. but a few jurors did not feel comfortable with the decision but in a civil case a majority prevails. >> justice was served and justice wasn't served. we all knew, it was terrible. a girl made a mistake about but these guys should be held accountable. they took advantage of a very

it the compelling statement to find barry bonds guilty beyond a reasonable doubt, i don't think so. >> how do you think the defense will respond? >> i think it's beyond a reasonable doubt. the prosecution comes to the conclusion that barry bonds is guilty that may be one explanation but the defense will say that is not the only explanation and that is not the correct explanation. >> your prediction? >> i think we'll see a acquittal in this case. >> barry bonds did not take the stan in the case and the judge instructed the jury to not form an opinion from that saying that is his right. we haven't heard what else the defense has to say about the case. the defends didn't put any witnesses on the stand under a could argue that speaks volcanos. the defense plans to make a lengthy closing argument later
