7:35 am
and that frustrated me a lot because he definitely did do it knowingly. the fact that he was still able to pull the wool over a group of people's eyes bothered me a lot and just disgusted me in some ways. >> owen labrie's attorneys are here with us. it's an interview you'll see only here on "cbs this morning." good morning. >> good morning. >> i want to get your response to what miss prout just said she shed was disgusted by a jury that said they believed owen labrie did this willingly. >> our response is owen was convicted on sex charges. the jury acquitted, that means they found him innocent. they found he did not do that. >> what did they find him guilty of? >> they found him guilty of a
7:36 am
misdemeanor sexual assault but for her age consensual contact. her age alone rendered it nonconsensual. if they found it nonconsensual based on actions or words it would have been aggravated. >> during the trial, there was a list of girls some under age. chessy prout's name was on it with capital letters. why even make a list if they're under age? >> the boys also testified about the quote/unquote list that is just a list of girls that they wanted to get to know better. that was all the boys. >> it wasn't getting to know better. it was what men wished to score. it's not getting to know. >> the testimony regarding what the list was for was different than what the state had argued the list was for. >> prout said in her interview she hopes owen labrie will learn from this, that he will get help.
7:37 am
and do you think he's learned from the whole ordeal? >> i think he learned through this whole ordeal. he went to encounter with this girl. he's maintained his innocence all along that they did not have sex. >> he said there was physical contact, what does that mean? >> there was kissing, rubbing. certainly, intimate contact but not sexual intercourse course. that was his testimony. >> and chessy prout also said this last week, she said we had been prepared to just receive an apology letter and just move forward with their lives. and just move forward with their lives. are you wear of just having owen labrie apologize and drop the ace altogether? >> i'm very new with the case. i believe attorney rancourt concurs we were not aware of that. again, owen maintains his innocence.
7:38 am
never any letter? she said there was a letter where she just wanted an apology from owen? >> to the best of my knowledge, it was offered as a plea bargain. just to write a letter. >> are you aware there was a suggestion of a letter? >> whether or not that was listed as part of say larger plea bargain with other consequences, we're not prepared to speak to because we were not his counsel at that time. it was never presented to us. >> she was very compelling while she was testifying. at the time, all we could hear is her voice. we did not see her. did she admit to any wrongdoing in this case? so much has been put that she was younger. does he admit to maybe that was just the wrong thing to do? >> i think the testimony is what the testimony is at this point. but is this not -- this is not a done deal. so, we have two tracks going forward. i've come in to litigate a motion for new trial based on ineffective assistance of
7:39 am
and there remains an appeal with the new hampshire state court. >> what are you appealing? >> there are a number of different issues raised in a motion for a new trial. and then attorney rancourt will continue to handle the appeal with the new hampshire supreme court. >> owen labrie has to register as a sex offender? >> a sex offender for life which will keep him away from playgrounds for the rest of his life. it will affect his future employment. a sony computer charge that he was soliciting her via that. that's what you're trying to overturn, right? >> yeah. and the motion for new trial has argued various points. one of those points being that the computer charge was not challenged effectively. that's raised in the motion for the new trial of ineffective. and also appeal. it's also pending in the new hampshire supreme court. >> so we understand this, are you saying that she was lying in her interview? >> i don't think we can comment on her statements. again, becauset'
7:40 am
case, this is not done. >> what did you think? you both watched it, what did you think? >> we were doubled the statements that she made went unchallenged. we were troubled when she's interviewed and she makes states purporting to know what the jury is thinking. that statement goes unchallenged in the media. and then it's picked up that he's a rapist and predator and this horrible person, when the facts are he was found innocent of that contact. when you're innocent, you're innocent, bottom line. >> thank you for coming. >> thank you. >> jaye rancourt and robin melone. could the fight against zika compromise safety? others calling it dangerous. if you're heading out the door you can watch us live from the cbs "all-access" app. we're thinking you don't want to miss oprah revealing her next book club section. we'll be right back.
