to look into the mirror. she nearly took the life of her washington and couldn't help but wonder if there were others. research now shows that for every nine executions there is one inmate found innocent and exonerated. one out of ten who might have been mistakenly put to death. i can imagine. i don't know i wasn't there but i can imagine a russia defending its national interests in a way that doesn't help the hawks in the united states but couldn't has this image of such a hard guy. and i would only blame him for not caring about american public opinion even more because it seems like no matter what he does there's an unfair response number less one thing is it's gotten very personal.

to dig deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smarter we need to stop slamming the door on the fat and shouting past each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now for watching closely watching the hawks. nearly two years after the bombing the trial was about to begin. karen left her home in new hampshire early to arrive for the opening statements. it was the first time she had scenes are naive since the arraignment. inside the courtroom karen and the other survivors were seated just twenty feet away he refused to look at them.

2:09 am
so you have to you have to learn to live with this hole in your heart. either we can continue to do well on it and then of well up the misery and sustain that misery that the. that we incurred because of what was going on are we can we can try and force things to change to the extent we can they countered their grief by sharing their story and providing testimony that would influence death penalty legislation. losing a loved one to murder is a tragedy on imaginable proportions this all happened to her testimony helped maryland become the eighteenth state to repeal capital punishment i've told my daughter story now twenty two different states and i have seen the tremendous effect of this whole system on murder victims' family members. in an ongoing
2:10 am
tribute to the memory of their daughter vicki and still continue their efforts to end the death penalty. in boston nearly three weeks had passed since our nails was found guilty but the federal jury had yet to make a decision about whether he should be put to death. karen went to the courthouse nearly every day. over the course of the trial she had become one of the main spokespersons in media contacts for the survivors. but for now there was nothing to do but wait. wait. you mean suddenly a text from a clerk inside alerted her that the jury was close to a decision. they're going to be coming al of it starting any time now i would
2:11 am
prefer it be you know in the death penalty just because i think that's the fair thing the right thing. is awful if that is. i think it's the just thing that's what i hope. and we are coming on the air because the jury deciding the fate of boston marathon bombers are hard and i have as reese. the verdict. they have sentenced him to death. news of the verdict traveled fast that you know that there's a long road ahead but right now it feels like we can take a breath and kind of. actually breathe again you know without even realizing all the crap at once and drinking it like now we can start here don't point. was son lives fate sealed karen began the long drive home. i don't think it
2:12 am
evens the score i don't think that it teaches anybody anything. i don't believe that it's going to be a deterrent to the next young man who has anger but i just think that that's nothing no other choice in my mind that is fair. after seventeen years and sixty two executions carries time as executioner came to an abrupt end. in the midst of preparing for another execution he was subpoenaed by a grand jury and accused of money laundering gerry claimed he was innocent but the court found him guilty. the sunday after his sentencing gerry's long held secret about his role as
2:13 am
executioner became public. they printed in the paper they said a man to carry out execution orders for this data but ginia was found guilty once i was out i mean i'm exposed so i gotta come forward i got a camel why is this in the truth about this here. why me know all because i didn't know you and i want you to have to go through what happened go through. while gerry served his time he learned that earl washington received a full pardon and after seventeen years was finally released from prison about four percent of the guys that i've executed and they stuck out that they were innocent so in an apple arrows case you know a place down here to find out that innocent people were there on death row. after serving his time jerry worked hard to rebuild his life.
2:14 am
he began speaking out against the death penalty one of the few executioners to do so we need to do that we need to change and i didn't enjoy killing people so what can we do to prevent these things from happening. jerry thought often about washington. if i ever get to see him i want to say oh you know i'm sorry i'm glad that things didn't go in a way there was plan to go and i'm glad to see you on a side because i can apologize to you at that take your life you know after i had biden that's it. i'm glad i didn't get it test it so i apologized for the name thank in a way i thought she was guilty. jerry decided to visit europe to talk with him face to face.
2:15 am
though it had been many years jerry and earl swapped stories and quickly we discovered a shared custody that's all you know one day i was a mockingbird and i was in eighty five. i went to ritual father who swings through ok that's what it led to yeah you know i want to we're going to you know went through your mind not doing it he was innocent oh mama he did all warm and she bought it raise your blood get me through which are just. this is a good thing that i didn't give it you know because i'll bring it to wed that he didn't do anything wrong. and also isn't something that i would have to face. but to see him crossing that bridge in to meet him and how that just is
2:18 am
yes i don't know. what was the last time that you went on the internet no i am not used to meet these village is it safe to go. are you sure there is new music ters there and they are all going to be sure the baby doesn't classes those that. were born in all we saw. is a dent as part of the deficit given the. work i was. previously yaz they are being false form in a very stupid member of the society. now that there was.

2:20 am
day five of the world cup was action packed with england pulling off a last minute two one win over tunisia it are all very much there to watch the game . release to england give me grief the english fans they take home the victory here in boulder a relief today it's a happy to take dream away from the magnificent pool to go to rebuff like. the other group the game earlier in sochi you saw belgium crushed panama. below and welcome to our special coverage of the world cup underway in russia
2:21 am
england have beaten tunisia in volgograd but it was far from easy for them it took until the ninety first minute with harry cane of england feeling the wind we've been keeping an eye on the game with our co-host former denmark and manchester united goalkeeper peter schmeichel joined by artes you know neal. peter it was a nervy time england versus chinese here daryn involved we were watching it first half they missed a lot of chances second half they didn't actually create many but got there in the end yeah they got the end and. i feel very very happy for the england boys because if they hadn't got there the next couple of days would have been charitable for them they would have been crucified by the that the previous meeting and i'm not sure that they go completely free the second half was awful the way they played the second half it's not. it's not promising grade four or for the next couple of games in the tournament but in the first half as you said they created so many chances
2:22 am
then god on his own had four chances he's with us to this quarter all four. hurricane as i said the half time you know it's a one guy you need to you think they need to fall for him if the chances falls for him to do it and then use goes one of the things that of course we've seen in this world cup. r. that the big guns not quite doing it again and did it they labored to a two one win but that got three points on the board that cannot be said for argentina it can't be said for brazil at a lot of other teams so when you put that into context it's a good win it's a very good win because at the end of the day it's all about get three points and send yourself up in the group so when you win the first cooking you have three points already which means when you play the next game in this case then when they play a pantomime the next game they play that denise and. then. of course they think they
2:23 am
can beat kind of on the evidence of how panama played today they did not very simply have to put everything then dance not not a great team absolutely not but it just sets you up in a different way maybe kara southcott could play one or two of the players that was working for him today. if you if you imagine they have one today and and this then become a must win game against panama then maybe he's not brave enough to do these changes so now he has an opportunity but one man he did do what he was on the field to do was hurricane of tottenham let's take a look at his first goal in the eleventh minute at peter no messing around here no no this is actually a fantastic by has and but harry cain is in the right spot he's the understands how you know you know how this situation is developing and he's in the exactly that spot because he is that good. a little bit of criticism for the goalkeeper or not are just a good save and for in the first place you know you have to say it is slow get it
2:24 am
out of the six yard box up but just the fact that you've got to wait on forever ok i mean this is an unbelievable say i want to make it unbelievable safeguard that you hope that is one of you to find this a ball falls or i mean he could have done anything other than that i think unfortunately for him it was is his last involvement in the game because in an incident a couple of men. this before he got injured he got a shoulder injury and had to give up and come off the page at what happened after that thirty five minutes into became england fans not happy at all a penalty given away kyle walker i'm not quite sure what he was doing no but. it was a penance of this there's no doubt about that yes it's a beer. it's a get away with a yellow is according to the rules if you hit somebody with your album you're off i truly to spot. and i think it's a really cool to take offense and wait wait wait wait he's letting you go people make the first move and then he puts it in the phone and that was really clinical
2:25 am
finish and it was one wanna need thinking whoa what's going on here you know this is not the will of yes us is go die it's not this is not the way it's supposed to be and then the supposed to be four five and up at this point and it's one one so both both of the ingold comes off a corner. and both of them are headed on all in the first case from the from harry mcguire. so harry cain again finds himself in the right spot so you can see harry mcquire rise as he had supposed and there's hurricane the clock was ninety minutes and thirty seconds captain of the team captain of the team and this is the definition of a big player when we talk about the big guns the one said that really rules the footballing world then we talk about players like christianity or now the harry k. that when it's needed for the team they turn up with the goods. very impressive very impressive with very impressed with how it came as an. enormous responsibility
2:26 am
on his shoulders to not only score the goals but also lead the team and they in and he's not going noise even away here behind us if we don't hear them the drums are starting so this this this was a massive game for him and in many ways i would think that carousel straight being the manager was the. musing about playing how he knew the quality of him but is he ready to play in the world cup and today show and then one their game volgograd peter all over is done there for us peter just when we fought it was over a last minute winner how delighted i mean when funds where you are. relief which is i think as we can now see the happiness people have very very pleased certainly england fans very pleased with that when it's reflected in the scenes we're seeing here in belgrade the largest body of england's fund a loud this crowd of english fans was right behind that goal and it's behind that
2:27 am
goal where hurricane school that went on in that ninety minutes amazing measure of freedom movement spirit. i spoke before we also decided to get out over and watch it all the games she knows it well you never know i was going to go so great to score early and play really well you can be unlucky with a tiny awful and it's just about coming down to believe and they made it difficult to drop him but. we got over this so that then we cried a lot on another day but we couldn't through for there were up there so we will work or just america for a noble final finish. but if we play that more than not well but i do well they're great attacking performance great defensive performance as well with their panic and a second off we never looked like considering the number. we would have to play it but it was worth it it's a big game for ourselves big for months. to come along and i wanted it to stay i want to start fast when you know the importance of not fast and i shall we we should really be aware of any call. that
2:28 am
a new mistress somebody you don't really get played on chances you know welcome to games especially the so tight edgy pressure on. really started about the time i was a little bit punching maybe not just down a peg or two for a few minutes but such a great resilience and you know this was a game they knew what they were going to win many of the england fans i think they felt they deserved to win it as things started not to go. as well as perhaps they would have wanted there was chances that didn't go when you felt but in the crowd you felt the atmosphere drop a little bit it became a little bit more tentative. nods can we go to you i even found yeah there we go what's it been like hope you found the i was going to be honest i had everybody has been really no use we couldn't we put it on and how everyone is really friendly the media who like you know the rule wrong it's been really good. how to show we decided to come we came in and we just found people to be super friendly a lot of the challenges of all hyped up in the press haven't happened and yet which
2:29 am
is good so we continue to go all in because good wins and all and where you see what we get on sunday i score you know aggression and england france france is indeed where we are and we are it's a football brand new stadium fantastic atmosphere fantastic people. have decided to seize on something very impressive very loud very vocal they will be a group to watch through this tournament the attitude of their funds who i think has been absolutely brilliant while it being here where we're in with the one who are really very sort of right to be there to loose mark know hopefully the second half of the second game versatility is i think your best in the keys underneath before the game being that british media reports other media reports about a plague of flies in volgograd which a thread into this from the game for players and also found so like how bad was the during the day absolutely horrific you know during the day horrible i was swarmed
2:30 am
with them i went for a room this morning and when i washed up when i went in the shower afterwards i think i washed about two or three thousand of them out of my head they died out in the evening thankfully i don't think they played any part in the game but it is a time games and both they could well be silly to watch out for. they've done a page not say that's the game in the bag next time palmer you'd expect. in the wind but then it's all about belgian yeah and this is what we're going to show down a minute because belgium didn't start the best but they came out on top white easily in the end panama not the best team have to settle a few times. belgium they did what they had to do today they beat them three nil yeah. looks comfortable at the end but they've been they didn't play well but then again belgium are one of the dark horses one of the maybe favorites to win this tournament people in general think that they have a fantastic squad and it's not about peaking them playing your best game in the first.
