and the women were grabbed by the hundreds and sold off to isis fighters as slaves. this video released by isis shows its fighters discussing the women they are about to take possession of. she instantly recognized the men. she saw them making their way through 80 the of girls. picking out the ones they wanted to buy. farida was raped repeatedly for months. they sold me from one man to the next. farida is 19 years old. she says the ordeal was harder on the younger girls. they raped girls who were 9 or 10 years old or even 8. they preferred the younger ones. harada is one they sought out. she is just 12.

he was old, she says of the man who bought her. he was 50. harada and farida managed to escape but both girls are badly traumatized. harada had never seen the video of the men waiting to buy her. i see this she says, i think of all of the girls still with them. they could do everything imaginable to them. we want justice. both of the girls managed to escape simply walking away when the captors were not paying attention. they had to walk for hours in the desert. knocking on doors and not sure what reception they would get. they eventually found people to link them up with extended retive retive relatives. they are receiving help lester. >> hearing that story makes you ill. richard engel, thank you very much. the white house calls it a

for insanity. how does it measure up? >> it is extraordinarily high. in the end, the decision has to be did he know what he was doing was wrong? that is capable of parsed out a million ways. it seems he knew what was wrong or he did not try to flee. we hear other things that clearly don't sound the words of a rationale man. the experts will help us better understand the defendant. >> some of the things we will hear in the weeks coming up. what are you listening for? >> i want to hear how the defense and prosecution play this out. i suspect the prosecution will focus on the jury on the events of the shooting range and what happened after. you see a guy who goes to get something to eat and tries to flee authorities. the defense will look really carefully at the arc of the man's life. how many times he went to a veterans hospital. what prescription drugs was he
