first-degree murder the entire jury is speaking out exclusively to my colleague here at cnn, anderson cooper. they deliberated for more than 35 hours over the course of seven days before deciding aaron hernandez was guilty of killing his friend odin lloyd nearly two years ago. anderson is back speaking with those jurors. what did they tell you? >> they were very conscientious. they took this very seriously. they deliberated for a long time as you know. a lot of people thought it would be a hung jury. they said there was a lot of evidence to go through, a lot of witness testimony to go through. a lot of them had copious books full of notes they'd been keeping over the last several weeks. so they clearly are very united in their opinion that they made the right decision. in particular in order to get a first-degree murder they either had to believe that this was a premeditated act by aaron hernandez or that there was extreme cruelty. they all agreed there was extreme cruelty. i asked them how they came to that decision. watch. >> so it wasn't premedpremeditation. >> i can't say with 100% certa

>> they were very impressive in the interview with anderson cooper.n't seem like they focused on the law enough. they really knew the law. they talked about what was appropriate evidence. what was not. they talked about what they needed to prove for first-degree murder. so they spent a lot of time together. so much time deliberating so they stuck together. >> very quickly, it also seems this is like any other murder trial really except you're passing guilt on aaron hernandez, psychologically do they feel they have to validate the decision they made? >> absolutely. it's difficult for them because this is a great tragedy. a person lost their life and this person aaron hernandez, $40 million contract threw it all away. a great american tragedy all of the way around. >> it really brings things into perspective. thank you so much. we always appreciate your insights. i'll be right back. when the moment's spontaneous, why pause to take a pill? or stop to find a bathroom? cialis for daily use is approved to treat both erectile dysfunction and the urinary symp

. >> and they say a lot more than that in that interview to anderson cooper.let's test it right now. there's no question this "the washington post" report is the new piece in the puzzle saying again, this prisoner who rode in the same police van with freddie gray not next to him he was separated by a wall. but he tells investigators he thinks gray was intentionally trying to injure himself. let's test it. cnn reporter evan testing the developments. how strong or how big or how important is a piece of the puzzle of this? >> well this adds to the doubt that some people already have as to whether or not these officers were at fault. so this is part of the big question that police investigators are going to be facing. prosecutors in the state attorney's office are going to be facing. we're talking about a six-block ride. that's the time between the second prisoner's put in the van and the time he arrives at the police station. this all begins at 8:42. the wagon is requested. at 8:46 the van driver says that gray is being combative, he's being irate. they put him i

(laughter) so it seems like ben wants absolutely nothing to do with you. >> cassius: it's disgraceful. i mean i stood by benjamin even though he's done things i'm wildly ashamed of. "gigli," for instance. >> larry: wait, how did you see "gigli"? >> cassius: netflix. >> larry: yes, "gigli" was bad, but i don't think that

>> >>> let's start with the interview with anderson cooper and anderson is here tonight. interesting seeing the different observations they had and what really struck you? >> how together they are as a jury. often you'll hear from one or two jurors i didn't get the sense about these jurors. they took this very very seriously, as jurors usually do and they really -- i think they gave two interviews total. we were the only national one and there was a local news interview as well. but they are talking obecause they want people to know how serious they were. and to prove the first degree murder in massachusetts, the prosecution had to either show premedtation which the jury said they weren't able to show that or extreme cruelty or atrocity atrocity. >> they have to show premeditation or extreme cruelty. >> extreme atrocity or cruelty. >> so it wasn't premeditation? >> no. i can't say with 100% certainty that he premeditated that while i was sitting in the jury room. >> but you did see extreme atrocity and cruelty? >> i do. >> was it with the number of shots? >> it was his in

who he points out anderson cooper is descended from at least one slave owner. rson. no, anderson came out and said he felt bad he had an ancestor that's a slave owner, but the country has changed. he believes america bears collective guilts for the sins of the past and there's no repentance. he could say my ancestors were never a part of that. that's the only logical reason behind that. pretty much everybody's ancestors did things that were bad. that's the point. we progressed beyond that. if ben an fleck can't see that that's the problem. despite he's been in "reindeer games." >> you're giving props to "gone girl". >> to be that bad, your sin is conservatism. while you find out about your own family history that includes sins in it unsurprisingly that has to be shut down so nun one no one can judge you, perhaps some open-mindedness would dot down. the fact that henry lewis gates went along with it is astonishing. >> well he didn't want to. if you see the e-mails he was against it and recognized this will be a violation of pbs rules, actually, even for "batman"

the jurors who handed down that verdict spoke exclusively with cnn's anderson cooper. >> for murder 1o show premeditated or show extreme cruelty. so did you feel -- >> extreme atrocity or cruelty. >> so it wasn't premeditated. >> no. i can't say with a hundred percent certainty that he premeditated that while i was sitting in that jury room. i can't say that. >> but you do see extreme atrocity or cruelty. >> i see extreme atrocity and cruelty. >> was it with a number of shots? >> it was his indifference. and that was part of what i had to look at. and it was, even if there was no pre mmeditate premeditated, he could have made choices there. he was there, they admitted that. and he could have made different choices, and he chose not to. >> i think one thing in that regard that surprised a lot of us. was it indifference. we watched the video footage at his home later in the morn org early afternoon after the incident occurred. and he was just lounging around by the pool and playing with the baby and just going about his regular life. you know, for us to acknowledge he was there at the t
