you have a rescue. >> it's so cute. the great escape. seal trying to get way from a pod of hungry killer whales. this little guy is not only cute but clever. much more on that comes up. >> smart seal. >> smart seal as well. a new twist in the murder case made famous by the popular podcast "kooerl." less than two months after being granted a new trial, two new witnesses came forward raisi questions about his alibi. ryan smith is here with the latest. >> reporter: the tight to set him free, two of her classmates from nearly a decade ago accuse someone of lying. it's the case linked to

accused of killing his girlfriend. thousands rallying to his defense. a baltimore judge ordering a new trial in june. >> the conviction is erased. >> reporter: but this morning, syed's star alibi witness's story cast this doubt. >> i was bored to tears in the library. >> reporter: someohe said she w this the library with him whe but this morning, according to documents filed by prosecutors this week, mcclain's account is being called a flat-out lie. two of her former classmates say in high school conversation, mcclain told them she believe sod much in adnan's innocence, she would make up a lie to prove he couldn't have done it. those classmates engaging in a testy exchange with mcclain on

to continue with this story 17 years late sir disgusting. mcclain replying, wow, this is crazy. i'm not lying about any of this. the now 34-year-old is yed spending almost half his life in jail. >> i had no reason to kill her. >> reporter: his new trial fwranted on didn't grounds. but the judge questioning why syed's defense lawyer in 1999 lever contacted mcclain. major plot >> in there was some technicality that would prove his innocence, great. >> i think, asia, you might be that technicality. >> reporter: mcclain's lawyer saying the classmates' allegations are bizarre and wholly foughtually untrue. she took to twitter. they say i'm a liar. i say i'm not. she thinks the state wants to

case. syed remains in prison while prosecute rers appealing the ruling. >> let's talk to dan abrams, nancy grace about that. let's pick up on the last point. the decision to grant a new trial is not based on the witnesses. is the new trial definitely going forward? >> no. when you have a legal ruling like this, prosecutors can appeal. they're appealing the decision for a new trial. matter, it doesn't really matter because the ruling from the court below relied on something else. cell phone tower data. but, the fact that there are now question about the star alibi witness has inevitably got to seep into the appeal. if there is a new trial this is syed's star witness.

i want to remind everybody that while the cell phone records are what the judge grants the motion for a new trial on, the defense is appealing the decision saying it should have been granted because of the alibi witness, asia mcclain, who has tried to make money off this case and her book that is for sale on amazon, "confessions of a serial alibi." she's gone on tv, book. that's not going to help anything. but back to the facts, the cell phone tower issue is the main issue. these two sisters, did you look what they said? their statement is so rich in detail, and has been corroborated, that they were there at woodlawn high school in a co--op class, with asia mcclain, the alibi witness and had this argument.

is this a popularity contest? no. but will it destroy her alibi? yes. >> one question is the legal match nations as we work our way through the appeal. the other is let's assume he gets a new trial. she's suppose d to be his star witness. this is devastating. >> i can't wait for them to bring that book out at trial. >> i don't thing she'll face being prosecuted when it comes to the trial itself, the public has been watching "serial" there's a whole group of people think he's innocent. he's finally going to get his day now. finally the world is going to see that he's not guilty. even if he gets this new trial, this information is going to be a real problem for him at trial. >> dan abrams. dan, i know you're going to

everybody that in the car, the victim's car, who nobody is mentioning, her name is hae lee. she's dead. she was a little high school girl. in her car was the map book with adnan's print on it. the page of the map where her body was found was torn out of that map book. his fingerprints on the map. they had just broken up. he wouldn't let her go. she had a she wrote him a letter, let me go. on that letter, he writes, i will kill. who else killed her? >> the only other person i think realistically that could have killed her would be the other person in the story, which is jay. the one who is talked about so much. because he's the one who brings them to the car. you have to believe it was either jay or adnan. >> you don't disagree with her that much? >> no, no. >> he didn't have a dog in the

that's what i'm putting out there. >> i don't -- i don't -- >> we're going to end in a good way today. let's go over the amy. yes, peace at last. all right. coming up next on our big board.

melissa gilbert is in the news because of a political battle. she won the democratic primary for a seat in michigan despite dropping out of the race in may. the state election board is allowing a replacement for gilbert to get on the ballot. the republicans are fighting to keep her in the race. why? >> the only thing that would make it better is if the district was in walnut grove, minnesota. the republicans are pointed on it's her on the ballot, she's much more vulnerable than the candidate that the democrats want. an assistant prosecutor. they know they have a better chance of defeating melissa gilbert. i think as an homage to laura ingalls, they're a half pint short. >> that was a good one. has there ever been a case where someone was forced to run when

bunch of the candidates dropped out. jeb bush was on the ballot in a number of states. marco rubio was still on in a number of states. one of the most interesting cases was in texas. two state senators died before election day who stayed on the ballot through election day. both won the election. though they had died 60 day before election day. >> you're preeobably right. the state election board decision is going to if she's forced to run, will she? >> she's just on the ballot. from everything i've seen, she's not going to campaign or do anything. it looks like she has a real physical issue with her spine in the course of this. i think in the end, the democrats will be successful in having their kptd on the ballot. it's not going to be that competitive a race. it's a republican district. the republicans, because of donald trump on the the ballot, want to protect everybody they can.

about breadwinners. a new study by researchers at the university of connecticut find that more men are depended on to be sole providers, the more their mental health suffers. what do you make of in? >> i think the study will surprise a lot of people. it turns stereo types on their head. you have a study that shows men who are under pressure where the expectation is they have to be the br have to earn in a marriage and support their family, the less happy the less healthy they are according to the study. the study looked at a number of people over the course of 15 year. the caveat is they looked at people age 18 to 3. i'm sure there are people out there married, 34, 44, 54, things change along the way. >> you might take some pride. it's surprising to me. it does show something didn't for women.

happier in this study when they get to support the family more. when they get to earn a little bit more. so it's the opposite for women than it is for men. >> i can buy that. i can buy that. we turn to a big debate about home work. it was sparked by a texas teacher's letter to parents. it's gone viral. she says she's not going to assign formal homework this year. we're here with jedediah bila, "the view" co-host, a this goes back to "everybody loves raymond." >> it's just -- it's just she has too much homework. did you see how many books she has to carry? she's going to be a hunchback. >> i think a lot of kids are burdened. this teacher says, ree search has been unable to prove that homework improves student performan performance. spend your evenings doing smings that are proven to correlate

almost became a hunchback because i had so many books on my back all the time. a lot of time, teachers give repetitive homework. they'll send the kids home with 50 problems. it's repetitive. i say give homework that makes sense for the kids. give them three or four problems, so they can exercise hat they did in class, but don't make it excessive. it turns into busy work. >> i'm math problems that i don't know. didn't you learn this in school? you were an administrator as well? >> i was. i was an academic dean. i had parents coming up saying, my kids have too much home work. they don't have time to be kids. they walk away being negative. come up with a create i have exercise. give them something at help that they'll enjoy. don't take up the entire night.

on high school because i was doing homework. i could have gotten the same benefit doing one or two problems. not 50. >> my kids love when i help with the math home work because they say it proves daddy is dumb. >> that's not true. we all know george wins everything. jedediah, thank you. rebecca, matt, thank you as well. the close call caught on camera. pod of killer whales. i don't want to live with the uncertainties of hep c. or wonder whether i should seek treatment. i am ready. because today there's harvoni. a revolutionary treatment for the most common type of chronic hepatitis c. harvoni is proven to cure up to 99% of patients... ...who've had no prior treatment. it transformed treatment as the first cure that's... ...one pill, once a day for 12 weeks.
