what we'll hear as we download and all the episodes begin next weekend. >> six-part series. >> it was exciting. the first that we've ever done here at fox5 a true crime in depth podcast. so it's been a lot of work. a lot of behind the scenes getting to the bottom of a lot of the questions around this case. because you remember in 2015 this case went national, and still to this day so many people have questions and this story is so many mysterious. so we really wanted to kind of go in deeper, and find out more about that. >> what is it about this? because there are many, many stories that we've covered over the years and there's many, many stories that we could do a deep dive on as he will what was it about this case that made you say this is the one we're going to do? >> well, i think this case says it all, right. you've got money, you have a family that's very good looking. they were young. they live in this affluent neighborhood right neck to the vice-president's home. i mean a neighborhood that you would never expect a family to be held hostage for 19 hours and

of this that i think to the public don't add up. you know you've got a driver delivering money to the home. you've got all these text messages and phone calls happening and pizza being delivered to the house it's such a bizarre kind of perfect storm of stories that i think for us it was like, hey, we've really got to kind of dig deeper on this. >> right. it's fascinating we'll tell you how you can subscribe and get all of the details we have a lot of special features in addition to the podcast we'll talk about in few minutes. available right now if you go to i tube and subscribe you can hear an extended trailer about tenements and you basically lay the ground work for everything we're going to be diving into over the next six weeks. but we do have new information even in the trailer you tease us of things of investigator who's were just like, guy seems like a nice guy. his family seems cool. we hear from family members for the first time. >> right. so darrin went is the man who is arrested he's been in jail for over two years. his trial is

september 2018 he's plead not guilty to all the charges of these murders. yes, one of the highlights is darrin wentz sister speaks out for the first time and you recall this. when this story first happened in national news everyone was trying to get an interview with someone in dare rin wentz family because yes, we had lot of people come out and say, look, darrin might have criminal past but he -- there's no way did he this. so we kind of dig deeper into those people. there's a lot of firsts on this. there's lot of, um, new information so, yes, i can't give it all away. there's lots of moments. >> i think it's fascinating as well because this is -- first of all when i was listening to your teaser that's out now, i say teaser it's ten minutes. you talk a lot about what we'll be hear over the next six weeks. >> right. >> but i tried to look at it like a lot of us here in d.c. or people who have covered differentsp

case are familiar with a loft ground work. i was listening to it from the perspective of someone who's not familiar with the case. >> right. >> then it just takes on this whole other meaning of just how could this happen and the intrigue and the twists and everything he is. but what's fascinating here sarah is unlike so many other podcasts we've seen when it comes to true crime, there's no ending in this yet. >> right. so a lot of true crime podcasts look at cold cases they look at case that is have gone to trial and maybe there's question about the person that's been convicted. we wanted to something in real time. because one of the big aspects of this you probably recall when it first happened. police came out immediately and said there's more than one person. definitely has to be somebody else. and here we are over two years later and no one has been named a suspect or arrested. a lot of people have a lot of question about that. and so we just wanted to -- i think the public needs to know some of those answers. so we decided let's jump in in real time and kind of follow this story. >> right. >> it's interesting i know you're

for removing tweets. the president has used twitter to slam the mfl for players taking a knee. to warn against so-called dangerous immigrants and to mock morning talk show hosts but in the words of a twitter news release, everything the president tweets is news worthy so he can likely tweet whatever he wants. so then some of have said what about if he blocks people can the president as a public figure as the president block anybody he wants? he's blocked famous people like actress chrissy teigen and author stephen king. he's also blocked every day people who have slammed his politics or criticize his fa family. some first amendment scholars say the president's twitter account is an official means of communication and therefore citizens cannot be denied access to it. virginia court recently ruled local official could not ban constituents from viewing her website. but then there's this. the deciding factor may be the president's official twitter account is not really the one he tweets from. the official acc

potus. the one he tweets from every day is at real donald trump and that's technically a personal account. if right. >> so the rules have changed. so therefore he may in fact be within his rights to block whomever he wants. now, if you want to respond to that via twitter you might soon have the chance to speak a little bit more than you normally could. hold ton your devices twitter announced it will test the key word here is test maureen a 280 character tweet limit. instead of 140. we'll have much more on that coming up at 10a although i mentioned allison earlier -- >> my opinion. >> i saw a study and i don't remember the exact percentage but less than 10% of the tweets right now use the full 140 characters. >> less than 10%. >> doesn't need to be 280. >> if you know there's going to be people out there some haters who like to hate who just want to -- >> what i like about the twitter the fact it forces to you get your thoughts across in brevity much the people want to ram ramble -- >> that's facebook. >> 280 characters. >> sorry facebook. >> that is facebook
