7:31 am
sixty-four, wait for it, 64 degrees the temperature in philadelphia we have hit lower 60's. we will rise quickly. your fox cast for today mostly sunny, 85. mostly clear later tonight with the low of 65. that is your fox cast. lets get back to the roads this morning. we're going to start off in gloucester township berlin cross keys road near the atlantic city expressway. there is an accident there. it is causing minor delays on both roadways. berlin cross keys road near the ac expressway. updating 95 northbound, there was an accident that is new cleared. we can see residual delays as well, chris. a lot of delays in this case defense in the pistorius murder trial delivering final arguments in south of africa, judge is expected to adjourn and then begin deliberations. pistorius is accused of murdering his girl friend reeva steenkamp on val types day last year and he claims he thought she was an intruder.
7:32 am
let's bring in ken rottweiler, and each side chance of success in this. we mentioned delays this trial was scheduled to take weeks, it started in march, here we are in august. >> a lot longer than people thought. lots of evidence and wiinesses and new they are in closing arguments, prosecutor made a dramatic closing yesterday and today defense lawyer is making a closing. we will see what happened. >> when it comes to the defense, a traumatic change in the approach from the defense. >> you know, originally chris, they seem like they were arguing self-defense, he thought there was an intruder. he got his gun. he was there to protect himself. then during his cross-examination in the case he seemed to change his defense, he seemed to say it was an accident. he didn't mean to shoot the gun. that is what the prosecution jumped on during their closing. they are basically calling him
7:33 am
a liar. they are saying this was a fight. he did this premeditated. he meant to kill steenkamp. it will take why's assessment to see which side she believes. pretty dramatic stuff. >> so a mistake but the gun just went off. there were four shots fired. >> that is exactly right. that is what the prosecutor said. there were four individual shots, four bullets in the door what pistorius testified to under credits examination was, you know, it was a mistake. he didn't know what happen. the gun just went off. chris, problem with that was if you will remember there was a gun charge where's discharged the the gun through sun roof of the car and at that point in time that was an accident too. the problem is that there were two witnesses in the car that contradicted his story that it was accidental. they said it was purposes full. that is why prosecutor is calling him a liar. he is trying to bring up these instances of lying to the judge so judge can basically discount all of his testimony. >> okay. so that brings us to the judge
7:34 am
in this case. she's surrounded by two advisors. live picture right now. she has to take months of testimony, and then, the back story here with the gun having gone off from the car, before, and then how long does she have to decide this case because unlike here where a jury then sits down, she can take months to decide. >> she can take as long as she wants, there is no time frame that she has to live with, so what she will do is sit down with those two assessors and as you look at the two people sitting to the right and left of her down below they are there to marshall the facts. they are going to help her with the facts. they will have the testimony. they will be able to reread deliberate. what is interesting is this is the judge's call. it is her call but if the assessors, if both of them unanimously come up with the same verdict and if that verdict is different from what the judge says then the
7:35 am
assessors verdict is what will stand. it is an interesting dynamic f both say we think that he is guilty, and judge says no, no i think he should be acquitted, then it is assessors both of them together their verdict will stan. >> three verse 12 like we see with the jury trial here in the u.s. real quickly, ken, you have been stud thinking from the get go all of the nuances and back story what do you think. >> you are putting me on the spot here chris, to come up with a prediction. i think it will be culpable homicide and that carries no sentence to 15 years in jail. he also will be convicted i believe of the weapons charges, the shooting of the gun through the suffer room and in that restaurant and that can carry a five-year sentence. i do not think it will be premeditated murder. it is hard to convict somebody of because you have to say that they planned it, it was premeditated, thought bit. >> burden of proof. >> and they went to bed that
7:36 am
night, it was, valentines day the next day. it didn't look premeditated in terms of killing her. it was a rage, thing. all of that will lead to a verdict of culpable homicide. do i think she will sentence him to time in jail. >> we will see how it plays out. we don't necessity when this verdict will be handed down. ken rot realer, as always, very interesting perspective. ken said he saw the the movie chef, and loved it. so we are talking movies. action pack weekend at the box office. big screen will light up with crime fighting turtles and disaster film that throws you in the eye of the storm, so what should you watch, this weekend. we will talk to our movie critic kevin mccart toy talk about the big films this weekend. see what he thinks of the movie boyhood. quincy is outside our studio at fourth and market. how is it going out there, quincy.

7:54 am
7:55 am
7:56 am
7:57 am
joining us now is doctor nina radcliff so nice to have you in the studio, thank you for being here. >> thank you for having us. >> can you talk to us about the significant of this study, does this mean that more women are at risk or that we can at least identify women at risk. >> let me put this in perspective. it is 15 years since brca one and two queens have been discovered. this is something are exciting. this is the pieces of the puts that he will we call breast cancer. what we are seeing is people who have, tested positive, for this tumor increase their risk by 58 percent. that is a significant number. >> what is the way to this gene works. this is a gene that actually is a cancer suppressing gene when working the way it is supposed to but this is a mutation of this gene. >> let me give you biology 101. basically our cells incur damage from radiation from x-rays or from smoking, drinking or things that we eat. overtime this damage accumulates and can cause a
7:58 am
cell to replicate uncontrollably which is what we call tumor or cancer. our body has a system to fight this off and repair these types of damages. thinks where genes like brca one and two and the gene that we have just discovered can help out. but if there is a mutation, it is like having a shield that now has a hole in it. so more can get through. it decreases our ability to fight cancer. >> how aggressive thinks sutation, that causes this. when people have mutation in this particular gene, we're find would go men are more lakely to get cancer at a young age and this type of cancer is less, sensitive to hormone therapies as well -- >> i'm sorry. >> more lakely to recur again after that. >> that too, after remission it is more likely to have reoccurrence. this is more aggressive. >> so, are there any recommendations i guess right now that experts are making in
7:59 am
terms of screening the general population or maybe even screening people that could be at a high risk. >> at this time if there is in family history there is no recommendation to get screened. even in people with family history it is only 4 percent do have this type of gene but that 4 percent kills 40,000 women every year. that is something to the at least look at. >> i want to mention this because this is a story very close to your heart. you tested positive for the brca gene yourself. >> yes, that is correct. >> did you have a mastectomy to try to take care of that. >> i did do that. >> is that something you recommend to women. >> it is a very personal discussion, it depend upon your value system and what your expectations are. so it is something you have to discuss with your physician as well as your family members to make sure it is right for you. some people can opt for surveillance such as mri's yearly or more commonly. >> doctor nina radcliff thanks so much for joining us. we will see you. good day, friday

we have breaking news troopers on the jean near jenkins airport in wyoming, delaware this happened just after 7:00 this morning. plane landed on a grassy runway at the airport and then continue to cross, westville road and came to a stop in the. i yard. six two-year old pilot and passenger were not hurt. still no word what caused that crash. u.s. has ramped up its involvement in iraq launching a mission to save thousands of iraqi citizens and air strikes could be the next step. let's bring in "fox news" chris wallace to talk about president obama's announcement last night, chris, good morning. >> good morning, chris. >> so this looks like according to president obama at this point that he only wants to have limited air strikes, no boots on the ground. >> yes, absolutely, very strong about that. not even the air strikes. first of all it is a humanitarian air drop for tens of thousands of refugees
8:40 am
trapped on the mountain surrounded biasis that fears some islamic extremist group and have been told if they come down they will be slaughtered. so he has dropped water and food there, tons of to it try to provide them with support. he has threatened is is with limited air strikes if they advance either on baghdad or irbill the kurdish capitol or advance on the refugees on the top of mountains. while he has authorized strikes he has not launched any yet but still far from boots on the ground. while having said that we are back in the conflict. even the humanitarian air drop puts us something in the conflict this is that president obama prided himself that the president that got us out of iraq and now back into it. he only did this as a last resort. >> did he use the word genocide. >> what they are talking about is isis this islamic extremist
8:41 am
group has basically swept over areas where christians are, areas where this minority religious sexist and they have been told you can convert or we will slaughter you. this is, a genocide were it to be carried out and he is trying to prevent that. >> how long do these relief supplies get to drop there and at what point does it become dropping bombs and instead of relief supplies. >> that is a good question. i think the president has set a marker and i suspect he hopes he will not drop the bombs and missiles, but isis will go back and in the advance on either ref goose on this mountain top or capitol of irbill but trying to reason with isis is like trying to reason with the great white shark. there is not a lot of sensible negotiation that goes on. if they continue to advance
