yesterday. sure tony and alison this was before the jury came in yesterday morning, kind of a surprise, the attorney john mccarthy got up and said he had two motions to address with the judge one was this motive, issue, and basically he is saying, that on the night murray was killed, she apparently had checked norwood's bag and found some merchandise in her bag brittany didn't have a receipt for as she left, she got on her cell phone and called a woman who works at the store and asked, if in fact she had sold this merchandise to brittany because that is the story brittany told her. she said no, she did not sell any merchandise to brittany and then, the state's theory is norwood called murray and said she left her wallet back at the store and this is where the premeditation came in. the state believes she lured her back to the store. the judge says he will not

allow it, it is hearsay, murray is gone she cannot testify to this. the only person who can is chioma. the judge said this is classic hearsay i won't allow it. >> a big part of this story was both of these women had been attacked and the jury heard evidence as to where norwood was supposedly attacked can you tell us about what bloode dense they talked about in -- blood evidence they talked about in that location in the bathroom. the doctor heads the district ocean solidated crime lab he say -- disstrict's consolidated crime lab he says there was too much blood in the bathroom to come from norwood's wounds the state says those were super official, scratches that she had done to herself and he said there was no sign from what he had seen, that

there was a struggle in that room, and that all of the blood that was in there may have been transferred from where murray was found. the doctor is a blood spatter expert and he said there is no way there was a struggle in there, what he saw, the evidence, indicated that, this was blood brought from somewhere else, and that norwood was just laying in it. all right, we will have another day in court today i know you will be following it. we will check with you tomorrow. >> we should mention you can stay with fox 5 for complete coverage of this trial, paul will provide constant updates on air via twitter we have a link at myfoxdc.com in the hot topics bar and get updates through your smart phone click mobile at the top of our website to download our mobile ap. >> guilty verdict for illegal immigrant accused of killing a nun in a drunk driving crash in

>> what would that be about. >> maybe 3 months salary or something like that. >> that settlement wouldn't be unusual and generally carries no acknowledgement of wrong doing open either side but the changing story -- on either side but the changing story line could be problematic. >> he needs to call people who might remember and bet the story in his head straight otherwise he could be in deep trouble. some question whether his relatively small campaign team is ready for prime final in washington doug luzader, fox news. in other political news an apology to president obama over a picture that portrays him as a zombie with a bullet hole in his forehead louden county republican committee sent out the picture to encourage participation yesterday, they call it shameful and offensive

it has been just about a month since the controversial book about sarah palin came out wild claims about the former alaska governor and presidential candidate in the book. good morning thanks for joining us. good morning thank you alison. >> well, you are a long time political author highly acclaimed in the business

getting a lot of flak about a month out from writing this book now. i want to ask do you have regrets? do you stand by every page of the book still? >> oh, i have no regrets, um, and i do certainly stand by every page. it has been interesting the book has been out just over a month as you pointed out, and up to now, sarah palin hasn't been able to point to a single specific fact in the book that she can contest so i think it stood up very well standing up very well to the scrutiny i knew it would get and i was utterly confident of the voracity of everything i published i had been over 12 books over more than 40 years, i don't just print gossip and innuendo and rumour i don't print anything i hasn't confirmed and verified to my own satisfaction is accurate. >> some allegations here you talk about the palins rocky

marriage, sarah not being an especially good or attentive mom also drug use in the past, most of these from unnamed sources, my question is, do you thing that you were fair to the palins in this? well, i think i was very fair i think sarah has blended her personal life and her political life, and she has fused those two identities together to such a point where things in her personal life that would not be relevant if they were in the life of a candidate, that didn't try to sell herself as a hockey mom as a mama grizzly wouldn't be relevant but in sarah's case all the personal stuff is because really she is selling us the complete package of herself as the all around mother, wife the great working woman, all these things and they turn out not to be true i think it is important to show people, what is behind that mask. and as for anonymous sources,

the washington post and the new york times, and all other major media organizations use anonymous sources every single day, there is a website called the anonymous sources.org that keeps track of anonymous source use by major media outlets the new york timewashington post have each clocked more than 2,000 anonymous sources in the past year and a half, so this is something that if it is okay for them to do it, there is no reason why it shouldn't be for me. it doesn't matter what source is anonymous or whether the source is identified i identify more than 70 named sources but what matters is accuracy and truthfulness and i have confirmed and reconfirmed everything i published in the book and that is why it has had such an impact. >> taken a lot of heat about the methodology in gathering

information, moving up to wasila alaska living right next door to the palins in hind sight was that good move you have received death threats, your family as well would you do that the same? >> absolutely it would have been journalistic malpractice when that house was offered to me a chance to live next door to todd and sarah for four months, while researching sarah, you have to be crazy to say no. there were death threats last summer coming from people outside of alaska, the people in wasila, never showed any hostility toward me i didn't have a single unpleasant encounter, except with sarah's husband todd the whole time i was in wasila. >> i hard you say sarah palin is an utter fraud a hypocrite as well so my question to you, in conclusion is, are you surprised sarah palin is not

against throwing her hat into -- is not again, thrower her hat into the presidential -- throwing her hat into the presidential ring. >> i don't want to say the rogue was the decisive factor but it has been called the tipping point she might have recognized when the rogue came out, she simply wouldn't be able to with stand the scrutiny she would get this time around, she got pretty much a free ride from the mainstream media in 2008, that wouldn't happen again next year if she ran for president i don't think she could with stand that scrutiny she stepped aside but still a very influential figure she is the key note speaker in orlando at their republican victory dinner night after election day next month she will still be around as a major influence for quite some time. joe mcguiness author of the rogue searching for the real sarah palin thank you so much

carpet of civilization so this is what we leave as traces in our nature. >> really that is so interesting. this is the essence of repurposing and recycling in terms of using the plastic bag so you said -- so this is a carpet would someone put this down you wouldn't want them to walk on it though would you? >> no, you can't because in the end it would become flat but you can put it on a wall for example, and it is used as an installation in exhibitions and galleries and so on. >> what have you gotten most out of this exchange? >> um, oh, it is a wonderful collaboration. i have at my house, lise who wouldn't here now but will arrive we work together, doing special project, looking east
