because the issues that were in the study that they found were totally across the board but most people you miss certain things you miss it's too loud it's too distracting you have to do all these things to make up for it but if there are men or women making inappropriate comments in the office if they're making people feel uncomfortable that's sexual harassment that's a rassmann that's creating a hostile work environment so do something about it don't blame this because again going it's not bad behavior it's just the open office plan made them do it and we just had a look and also it's this idea that all women need us you know a quiet place to go when things are upsetting dude it's not just us everybody nobody wants to hear bad news but the whole office watching nobody wants to be yelled out with the whole office right right and they're making a sexism is you know will open offices are not making people sexist sexist make workplaces sexes period i mean if you just say i don't like it i don't wear a period plus at the end of the day i mean look when you when you look at like open offices and all kind of thing it's like that was just going out as much in close
1:01 pm
office as was open office and i you know in this i was i was a room and sexual harassment didn't happen close up but i mean to me it all depends on the weather open or closed it depends on the industry you're at the end of the day and what's more beneficial for getting the job done and taking a professional environment to do your job at the office like great news rooms need to be open because we're going to be all be all the back and forth at each other and things like that but like some places i don't know i don't understand i mean maybe everybody's going to have bad behavior responsible for their bad behavior or make them stop their guitar and go to break or watchers don't forget to let us know what you think of the topics you cover the facebook and twitter so your poll shows that are to you dot com coming up sean stone talks the death row case of companies cooper with the author of a scapegoat. and then u.s. geological survey's asking hawaiians to please stop roasting most mellows over love of clothes stay tuned in the whole.

1:03 pm
each of killian erroneous and spending to do the twenty million album fly a. book it's an experience like nothing else not to because i want to share what i think of what i know about the beautiful guy but great so well paul chimes with. the base this morning. well you know they were kind of adopted because we were called pirate it's long. been there in the small ball and if you don't harp on sheep and you stand. on. the little self the big beast already ninety percent of the dot and it won't become the. fifteenth.
1:04 pm
they do it several times a day with a big lead now or you get an idea of why. we have to understand we can all stay still and just. be with them this will be the only going to be around. i'm doing this because i want the future world to future generations to have and enjoy the ocean we. as does a famously said the degree of civilization in a society is revealed by entering its prisons meaning that the best judge of a culture is how it treats its prisoners but what does it say about
1:05 pm
a society when some of its prisoners are only guilty of being framed this is the controversy surrounding the imprisonment of kevin cooper who in one thousand nine hundred five was convicted for the brutal murders of a california family and house cast but whose alleged framing by law enforcement is at the heart of the book scapegoat the chino hills murder and the framing of kevin cooper by author patrick o'connor o'connor recently sat down with our own john stone to discuss the case. pat thank you so much for joining me today we're going to talk about kevin cooper and his case now most people may not have heard of kevin cooper especially outside of california but can you tell us first and foremost why is kevin cooper who is now sitting on death row in california such an important story. well i think it represents one of the and all of the most flagrant abuse is a state power to frame a person for a crime he had nothing to do it they wanted to solve this case and they wanted to they wanted to pin it on him. and so they used
1:06 pm
a lot of dirty tricks to do that it was a tremendous abuse of state power. precisely and then you know just to reflect upon the case this is one thousand eight hundred three we're talking about a quadruple murder a white family in chino hills area and the man who is penned for the murders is this man kevin cooper who had recently escaped from prison and even though the suspects were whites and even i believe the girlfriend of one of the suspects had reported saying i believe my boyfriend was involved despite all this what was the motivation for from the from your perspective as a researcher and author for pinning it on kevin cooper when all the evidence was actually pointing away from him. well. they sold the foul the crime scene. these murders were discovered on a sunday afternoon so all the like the coroner's office is you know our bodies
1:07 pm
downey on the lie after crime lab people aren't they aren't the first teams holmes or the c.n.n. the sudanese early inexperienced people into this incredible crime scene in the master bedroom of the ryans house and they don't take the blood properly they take it from there's blood everywhere in this room on every surface there's blood goodness for people who have been hacked to death with an axe and cut up with a knife and penetrate it with a with a ice pick i mean this is a terrible bloody scene. it was no no no law enforcement officer ever seen anything like it and then have these inexperienced. crime lab people come in and take all the blown wrong. mix it all up together late and never see segregate segregated in and then only two days into the end of the investigation e the district attorney. which is very unusual he got he got this idea to take down
1:08 pm
the entire crime scene take the walls out all the furniture out and put it up in the front yard. and then ship it off to a warehouse where the temperatures were one hundred twenty degrees so all the blood evidence went by the board once they once they deconstructed the crime scene so they can't they had no way of. making any sense out of what happened in this house so therefore i think they started looking for a scapegoat well kevin became a very convenient scapegoat when they found out a couple of days later that he had hold holed up in a vacant house one hundred twenty five yards below this kind of a hilltop house that the ryan family lived in an arabian horse country in chino hills once they saw that he was there this escaped prisoner from
1:09 pm
a nearby of the chino institute for men three three miles down the road they the news they just thought it had to be him. and do i feel that way there was a racial motivation. here that's a racial motivation to that. i think there is i think there was in this case. but. what i'm really thinking is they botched it so badly they botched the crime scene so badly that they this more of a scapegoat thing than anything else. they have. they have information from the eight year old boy josh roy he survived this incredible massacre and his parents master bedroom and was able to tell the people at the little in the hospital there that his assailants were three white men and he also told this to a deputy who had interviewed him at the hospital later and. there was
1:10 pm
a family. guy and his wife were these these murders happened around midnight on a saturday there was this man in his woman they were trying to pull out of the only road that leads out away from the ryan's house is a one is a one way is a one road scoping lease road they were trying to come out of the driveway on english road with this station wagon being driven by three containing three white guys maybe four but the man saw three the woman saw four. went hurling by them and. went off into the night so we get we have the these people seeing this was the ryan station wagon by the way after the murders were committed they stole the ryan station wagon and then drove it down a very high rate of speed down old english road and then the ca who's went to
1:11 pm
a book are about a mile and a half down the street where they came in and were obnoxious. there were three women in there want to melissa bell bottom missed and she said to the one of these guys who was hitting on him i hope you realize you're covered in blood at which point these these yahoos left but who were the who is and who are the real murderers in your analysis well for sure. diana roper. was her boyfriend was a guy named lee pearl who. they lived in mentor on about forty five miles from. he came home this lee for. four years earlier he had he had murdered a seventeen year old girl cover up cover up in a body parts and threw into
1:12 pm
a canal body parts were never found. he turned state's state's witness state's evidence and turned in this guy clearance rate allen a gang leader named clarence ray allen who ended up being the final man executed in the state of california when he was executed in two thousand and six at the age of seventy one or so this is kind of a you know ironic thing but anyway so for all he only has to serve four years and he gets out and he starts his relationship with diana rover. and then on the day that the night of the the ryans were murdered. her oh and and throwing girlfriend another girlfriend of his. they come to this house an intro. girl only stays long enough to take off he's wearing coveralls and he
1:13 pm
takes them off until it's meant to but leave them in the bottom of a walk in closet and then heads out with the girlfriend in a couple days later when these pants are starting to stink diana rover picks him up and she's that they're cake and blood and they have white horse hair around the conflicts so she calls her father now father says comes over and motions of my god we've got to call the sheriff's office and so diana roper culson she says she has based on based on is and the fact that her boyfriend was no longer when he came home that night he was a weren't just tan t. shirt he had on that morning. she thought it was very probable that he was involved in these chino hills murders. so we have this was the murders happened on this on june the sixth this is three days later june the ninth what diana roper turns in these these coveralls. that really implicate leaf or.
1:14 pm
so i would certainly put least in this group i don't know who i don't know who his companions were i do know he went to the. he was out that day with a guy named michael don't know. any might have been associated with another guy named kenneth but i have no clue whether those two people were involved but i have very high high percentage of confidence that lee furrow was in that house and got was involved in the in this massacre of the runs. so if given that there is blood evidence and certainly this may have been before d.n.a. was being tested the way it evolved to the ninety's and to the present day why is it that kevin cooper is still sitting here on facing death row given that there must be some blood d.n.a. evidence that would on a rate him. good point and they would. this was the cover
1:15 pm
all it would have been it would have would have that would have exonerated kevin cooper back in one thousand a if if if they had ever been tested but when they turned him over. didn't turn him over to this substation there's like this is the human it was the biggest county unit in the united states san bernadino county there's like twelve substations so we turned in addition to call you kind plus some station and the guy that went out and got to where did you make some reports is it down the homicide homicide never gets back to it. and by now they're focused in on kevin cooper so they're not to do i'm interested in bloody coveralls from what men trone when they got there convinced kevin cooper is the guy so they never come out to see these. coveralls and he never asked him to be shipped in so that a few months later when the first day when kevin cooper is going to be have his
1:16 pm
preliminary hearing that should be in the symbol the deputy that picked him up he brought he has been quite an incinerator and dempsey dumpster kind of thing and throws him away so we don't have those coveralls. summertime is upon us once and sticky treat remains a staple at bonfires and get togethers everywhere floors however residents of hawaii now the callaway volcano man want to rethink their marshmallow roasting techniques on monday the u.s. geological survey volcano has or its program took to twitter to warn residents not to use vault. an advance or using lava to roast marshmallows i'm serious this morning was prompted by one curious twitter user who tweeted out the u.s.g.s. account asking if it is safe to roast marshmallows over a volcanic volcanic events quote assuming you had a long enough stick that it according to us yes not only with the smores poisonous
1:17 pm
gases and sulphuric acid and maybe even from the scorching bends but they were pretty bad too as cool as marshmallows are volcano may sound we suggest you stick to bonfires like the rest of us so satellite images but yeah don't feel like smores somehow owed a debt. all right that is our show for you to remember everyone if we're not told the source tell you all i love tyrol been to and i'm proud of that while watching the sox have a great day and. fifty years ago breaking bad within to come together as a sleeping pill does this is what i believe because this is. the side effects were terrible but not on the road.
1:18 pm
across europe. legal battles demanding at least some compensation. to wait till the physical damage itself as well there's a constant mind that the people who perpetrated this crime has never been the justice and there's been. the american political soap opera widely known as russia gate appears to have no wind no evidence has been revealed to trump campaign colluded with russia there is mounting evidence the intelligence. community or should i say the deep state monitors we've been spied on trust world. banks geysers financial survival and they say most of the delegates close to these if this is a central plank support dying a commons other problem right now so stop. you
1:19 pm
never know what's around the corner you never know what's in the pub you can walk into excitement it's that not knowing that's where the adrenaline in much comes from. and you can easily move by definition and the extremes to all. the violence is a part. of schizophrenia. where you can do all these things and behave badly. important people of course colorful but all. those more so for the last. punishment and infirm for the role of policy in the thoughts. i would rather when the fire broke out i really did a poll that i was going to get. meaning in reason is that at least if you don't let
1:20 pm
me involves it's constantly evolving into. a new british documentary of the freedoms that doctors treating expiry powell and his daughter thought they would sealing with a drug overdose and initially took no dish more precautions. become an art say speeding the italian speed budget commissioner says he's accused of trying to tell italy time to vote by doing mongering about the economic consequences. having populist empower us nominate the eighteenth commander for the afghan war which has been running for seventeen years we love hate about dancin hope that donald trump would signal a new era for the country. hello
1:21 pm
there welcome it's three pm here in moscow you're watching our international. b.b.c. documentary has revealed the testimonies of doctors that treated the. powell and his daughter following their poisoning in the british city of souls in early march with more his and to see a chalk. this is a b.b.c. newsnight programme documentary has certainly highlighted some more curiosities about the whole script all saga adding just a little bit more mystery to this whole story if you didn't have enough already now this is a firsthand account of the medical staff doctors and nurses that were treating this cripples when they were admitted to hospital in solsbury following the poisoning and for starters some of the things described in this documentary were that initially it was assumed that the script all had experienced an opiate overdose and there were no extra precautions taken in that regard there was no indication of the
1:22 pm
fact that there was a gent and therefore we take no more protection when any patient comes in which has no point taken any extra caution in terms of protecting ourselves the screwballs were found in a park bench back in march on march fourth on a sunday they were taken to hospital then by tuesday police officer nick bailey was admitted into the hospital and then only after it was that based off of red flagging from other scientific lab porton down that it was revealed that a nerve agent had been used and despite all this and all the talk of the harm that this nerve agent potentially being what it is could cause this compiles were sort of miraculously cured and this is something that a doctor in this documentary described as well that it came as a surprise how quickly they had recovered meanwhile a russian chemical expert that we spoke to said that the symptoms associated with
1:23 pm
an opioid overdose would be very different from those associated with a nerve agent poisoning which most of them with initial police report stated grupo was swinging back and forth while seated on the bench and also raised his hands multiple times and this description resembles a drugs overdose and the initial version was that the scruples were suffering from phantom new. total finds of military groups poisoning or rapid pupil construction. of your american continents all the symptoms are absent from the initial report. well certainly lots of curious details and to this day it seems clear that there are still lots and lots of details in this whole case to be addressed well after the incident the u.k. claimed that russia was behind the attack saying that only russia had the means and the motive as well as the track record moscow has repeatedly denied though it had any involvement and it says that other countries develop novacek noted that it had
1:24 pm
traded scripts in a high profile spy swap and therefore had no reason to go after him it also says the fact that it's being denied access to you a russian citizen is suspicious well let's go over some of these questions now which i was to be the former british air counter-terrorism intelligence officer and he's with us this afternoon and you very welcome as usual charles let's start with one that many people are asking not be chalk is said to be lethal even in small doses is it a surprise then that all three patients survive do you put that down to the treatment they receive or is it down to the incompetence perhaps of whoever is trying to kill them. literally as soon as other nerve agent it was described at the time by terrorism a in parliament just a couple of days really after the incident happened very quickly remember that the u.k. claim to identified novacek as the substance concerned i tweeted if this is the case how come these two people because we only knew about the two script was at that
1:25 pm
time not the extra police officer how come they're not dead particularly since these were unprotected civilians particularly since they are alleged to have been victims of a targeted attack a professional attack that question has absolutely not gone away in the three months later here we are you quite rightly asking exactly the same question it's a question that the b.b.c. documentary itself from the specialists who were actually in charge of the recovery process of the script was unable to answer and it's a nagging question along with so many others because if you look at the british government's narrative a narrative that was leaked by so-called security sources which is we'll know in the media often means. i think we've got a problem now it shows i think we've just lost the connection and for sure we'll try and get back if we can over the next few minutes now as we've mentioned the u.k. accuses moscow of poisoning and his daughter london's reaction to the case has been
1:26 pm
tech she at times with britain's defense secretary at one point saying that russia should just shut up and go away but when recently asked about the appropriateness of that kind of language it was he who is shut up and then told to go away. but i'd like to pay tribute to the health service person sorry did you answer the main no no no no no no i'm you regret using that kind of casual language the world's a world united behind britain and one more time would you please answer the question asked the question will she be cool should we came together with our allies and why not russia interview terminated because you won't answer the question good luck with the african elephants or project interview terminated because you are the first. now the e.u. budget commissioner has apologised to me the backlash over his recent remark that italy should take its key from the markets when deciding whether to vote for populists and that's my expectation is that the coming weeks will show that the markets government bonds and the economic development of italy could prove to be so
1:27 pm
drastic that this would be a possible signal for voters not to vote for populists and the left all right. and to discuss this a bit further now we're joined by our europe correspondent peter all of the following story for us a heated and a quick recap how did we get to this point. well on sunday night the italian president sergio maternelle he vetoed a euro skeptic proposal for economics minute for economy minister and that essentially mixtape coalition deal between the populist solve the five star movement and the league nord in italy what that also did was it sensed the markets crashing down it sent italy in a tally in voters back to the polls and sensually and it's an accusations flying that the e.u. had something to do with it now it also saw. the budget commissioner come out and say this downfall that this downturn in the markets was
1:28 pm
a message to the italian voters that next time if they went with the populists they could be in for financial disharmony now immediately after he said this there was criticism from some of his closest allies donal to the european council president and. the european commission president both saying this wasn't the type of language they wanted to hear but if we look at the leaders of the five star movement and league ignored in italy they were very critical of the statements from. these now retracted those statements and one wrote them back a little bit but they're still not happy saying that he's the type of person that just views italy somewhere to go on holiday but it actually place right into the hands of both the leader nord and five star movement because now when they go back to the polls which we expect will be in september or as early as september they can say to their potential voters look we told you they're trying to influence you and
1:29 pm
you from brussels this is an example of it well ultimately it was left to the e.u. commission president jiang called younker to try and smooth things over between the populists in italy the commission in brussels. italy's fate does not lie in the hands of the financial markets regardless of which political party may be in power italy is a founding member of the european union that has contributed immensely to european integration the commission is ready to work with italy with responsibility and mutual respect italy deserves respect. well we can expect elections in italy perhaps even as early as september the populist from five star and leak an order already getting themselves back into campaign mode to push for that but i'm sure we'll also be paying a close eye on exactly what is being said on these elections from brussels in wealth pretty much from now until polling day sure ok thanks but it was arty peter
1:30 pm
all over that. now in other news this afternoon donald trump has appointed a new commander of u.s. and nato forces in afghanistan the u.s. led mission to help afghanistan get rid of terrorist started in two thousand and two shortly after the nine eleven attack the tenant general austin miller becomes the eighteenth commander of the seventeen year campaign and that means on average the afghanistan mission has had a new commander every year but the latest u.s. watchdog report does say that the campaign has brought little good to afghanistan.
