7:34 am
rage. yesterday prosecutors played recorded phonecall between rouse and a reporter from a new york no err magazine, in which rouse talked about what happened saying he quote take care of business. so defense attorneys say rouse who was taking anti-psychotic medication was insane when he shot kyle and littlefield, in convicted rouse faces life in prison without parole. >> so what can we expect today from the defense? hi, good to see you. >> this is an interesting defense, do you remember the most famous insanity defense trial? >> was it the woman who killed her kids down in houston. >> 1928, john hinkly junior, pled insanity, and was found insane. >> for killing. >> for, well, for shooting brady and for attempting to shoot president reagan, and then what happened was sirly they put him in a institution for the rest of his live, hinkly. kind of the same thing, not guilty by reason of insanity, they had his mother on the stand yesterday.
7:35 am
his mother talked about how he threatened to kill himself, how he threatened to kill other people, how she begged the hospital that he was in to keep him in the hospital. and all of this will play into the jury's determination whether he was insane at the time that he actually did the shooting. >> and the dash cam video or whatever the recordings of the police when they tracked him down, and caught him after a chase? >> yes. >> he sounds nuts. >> he does sound nuts. it kind of cuts both ways, because it also sounds like he knows what he was doing. >> well, yes, because he is running away. >> because he is running away, he was in that truck, running away. >> that means he knows he did something wrong. >> that's the whole thing they have do decide at the time he shot the gun. did he know the difference between right and wrong? defense says no, he was insane, prosecution says absolutely new what was doing, look what he did, he jumped in his truck, tried to get away. cut both ways. this trial i think will bounce back and forth. yesterday actually good day for the defense, putting the mother on the stands basically saying i was begging the hospital to keep him in the hospital. plays pretty well with a injury. >> i ptsb main source.
7:36 am
>> ptsd, you don't opportunity associate necessarily violence with ptsd. pschiatric community very careful about saying don't confuse the two. but insanity plea doesn't work very often, does it? >> it doesn't work very often at all. but in this case, you know, i think the jurally have a lot to decide. he shot two guys in the back of their heads. that casino of says to you you probably had to be insane at least at that point in time. because really was no motive. these were two guys, chris kyle, chad littlefield, trying to help him. >> that's right. >> they were fellow vets. they were thereto be therefore him to help him. he turns, shoots them both in the head. sound crazy to me. >> talking about this earlier, we were saying we were surprised the prosecution already rested. >> well, they do things quick in texas. >> put open their prosecution, they don't have to prove he killed them. he definately killed them. now what they'll do, they'll have a chance in rebuttal. if the defense puts up
7:37 am
insanity, the prosecution can come back and rebut t so another shot at t they're just wait to go see what the defense case puts on. very interesting trial. >> chris kyle's wife, right there. >> yes. >> very, very sad. yep, i mean, look, i think everybody has seen the movie. really spectacular movie. so i think a lot of people hoping this guy gets convicted. >> good seeing you. >> good seeing you guys. let's gem back to our game playing the last three weeks. trying to figure out who is the greatest athlete in philadelphia sports history? >> so what about these two? doctor jay, versus joe frazier. >> we'll see how they stack up. >> that's a tough

8:15 am
ground, maybe quick inch, if you're north and west of philadelphia, so that continues through about 2:00 in the morning. and then, we are left with stunningly cold temperatures. so, a high tomorrow, of only 17 degrees, a high on friday, of 18, record lows, probably, set in the morning, and then a high of only 33, on saturday, finally getting to the 40's sunday, but will only last a day, because we get cold air moving back in, early next week. so, there it is, your seven day forecast, bob kelly, so we've got the sunshine this morning, but, everybody decided to come back to work all at once. right? >> definitely. all have to be in attendance today. we had the three day holiday, had snow day. so, pack your bags, put the kids on the school bus, let's g live look, downtown philly, the vine expressway, heavy from ends to ends. goal getting words of accident on lincoln drive, peaking through here, our camera from the roosevelt boulevard. traffic moving in both directions, but we're getting word after accident on the

lincoln drive. so, if you are headed out the front door typically headed for the linc, watch for delays, septa says, 20 minute delays, on all of its regional rail lines, the media elwin line, we pop that up to 45 minute delays, because of equipment problems this morning. mike, alex, good morning to you. >> city of brotherly love, sisterly affection, gearing to up big time events. >> so, first the ncaa convention will come to philadelphia this july. then, pope francis will be in town in september for the world meeting of families, and, finally, the democratic national convention sets up shop in july of 2016. so it is a lot of event happening right after the other. so is the sit of reading for all of this action? like really ready? >> ronnie, thanks for coming in by the way,. >> good to see you. >> i see you almost every day, we finally get to meet. >> thank you, nice to meet you, as well. >> columnist for the philadelphia date i news, few ideas, great article that you wrote, so want to get in you here to talk about it, i just got a tweet, been asking
8:17 am
people on twitter, what should the city do to fix itself up. you know, before all of these big events. >> right. >> this one guy writes in: the whole city just needs to be fixed. >> oh, my gosh. >> can we do priorities? >> well, let's got to the priorities. you mention in your arm, some people said let's reopen the patco station over at franklin square. >> right. now that's an idea that's been floated for awhile. it is right at franklin square there, and so people can sort of zip into new jersey. >> right. >> very easily, come back and forth, convention airs don't have to stay in the sit and quick way. >> we are expecting probably for the pope maybe 10 million people to show up. >> it will be crazy. one of the things i had never considered until this gentleman suggested it, and i suggested tweet us at patco watchers, what you should look at, he is great. when you use the patco line, we can actually use it just can be an alternative route around center city, so you can hop on 16th street, get off
8:18 am
right at the square, then right next to the constitution center, so i never thought that that's an additional way to move people locally just within the city. someone else suggested that the tunnel, patco tunnel, does not end at 16th street, it actually goes to 18th. this is amir a but what if we could open up a stop right at 18th street. and then that is yet another entrance to get people from sort of western center city to the eastern part. kind of pie in the sky, but fun to dream. >> why not? >> do you have start with something. so with a about 30th street and market frankford line? >> okay. so, there is a funnel that exists between 30th street station to the market frankford line. >> but not open. >> it is not open because there was brutal assault over 20 years ago, and it is a very winding weird tunnel, very hard to monitor. so they closed it. so right now leave 30th street station, cross, and get on in that way which makes the hub there different from loft other cities where all of their transit is sort of connected underground in one place.
8:19 am
>> so do you have leave 30th street station, go out into the elements. >> right. >> just open it for like the week different conventions and events are here, and line it with securey? >> well, but i think it is also a mess, it has been 20 years. >> clean it up! >> rats, needs reconstruction, but the tunnel exists, not like anything has to be blasted through, but septa says no way, it is not going to h their next big inch if a have stalk to fix the station at city hall. that will won't happen until 2018. >> dream. >> i like that little what they call the porch when you walk out 30th street station. >> yes. >> market street. it is a little area you can hang out, play games, sit and rest. it is kind of pretty, especially during the summer. >> right. >> well the university city district is working a lot to actually expands that, so it will have more greenery. it will have seating that's actually a little more plush, than hard. i think they're looking for
8:20 am
one hon toast godfrey standing restaurant, so not just food trucks, food trucks are great, so hoping to make that a little more of a destination, the way that rittenhouse square is. >> you know, too, just swiping cards. >> yes. >> always have trouble trying to find the toning glenn oh, they've been working on that for so long. >> something else on twitter, won't more pop up beer gardens. >> who doesn't, yes. those are such huge success last year, and they are just so delightful, come upon a place never used and all the sudden ten has seating and food, and beverages, you know, people, whatever they can set up. >> bocci and all of that. >> exactly. they've been trying to -- they're going to fix up love park. we can speed that up maybe? >> yes, they already have plans to do that. well, they have plans, and i think that's supposed to start in 2016. but the dnc is coming in 2016.
8:21 am
so my fear is that that will be a construction site. i don't know if it will or not. what they are planning there, right now, it is, you know, i always say it is reading terminal sort of the city's living room, love park is like our deck, you know. >> place where people will go down to do protests so real a space, fun space, so, it definitely needs fixing up, it just needs some fixing up, but, you know, i happen to think it is already pretty great. maybe just have too much love for t but the statue will stay there. one thing that could be at risk is the welcome center, you know that spaceship looking thing t either needs renovation or removal. and there is a lot of outcry against removal, i think they are looking at it for preservation, in fact, looking at preserving it. >> we have to get to work. >> okay. keep us updated. >> will do, thank you. >> thank you for having me. >> when she walked in and saw sue serio, this is like
8:22 am
meeting madonna. >> we love sue serio. >> yes. >> yes, we do. >> love sue serio. >> should meet the pope up. >> she should meet the pope. do that for us. >> 8:22, big move by pharrell? >> yes, happy could be your kids new lullaby. what? no, not talking about the song exactly here. his new product for kids, that exactly here. his new product for kids, that we just -- we didn't see this
