. >> the atf keptist has a protocol.lly, one of the things the prosecution didn't tell this jury which we brought out is the atf also put out a protocol that said you never take a dog alert, single dog alert, and draw a conclusion, and in fact, if the atf says negative, then you should not allow in the dog alert. >> so why would people believe the dog over the atf? >> i think once again you get into this idea that people have dogs, they kind of ascribe supernatural powers to dogs. i have two large dogs and one -- having been through a couple of cases with dog evidence, as much as i love my dogs, i'm certainly not going to want to convict somebody and put their liberty at stake based on dog evidence. >> still, as he presented his case, geragos had a problem. and he knew it. >> what it came down to was the character assassination block of the case. the first two blocks of this case revolved around the -- what so-called scientific evidence, and that was absolutely destroyed. and then you ended up with the character assassin

we expect to hear from the atf as well as the police. they are here with an update as to whether or not any pulling a mary determination of cause can be made. let's hear what they have to say. >> a press conference is about to get underway. >> this news conference will start at any moment. at this point we were told earlier that they had not made any determination of cause or origin for this fire. they said it may be a few days before they can go into the building. we do not know if this was on purpose or accidental. we are trying to hear from custer county -- contra costa county fire. let's hear what they have to say. >> henry lee is standing by for an update with that fire that happened at 1 am. 250 people are out of their homes. we don't know if this was an accident or a purposeful fire. this project was a $55 million project. we are eager to learn what has happened at this site. we await word when the scope press conference will start. >> many of the evacuees were also sent to a red cross shelter. it was located at presbyterian churc

what kind of role might the atf play? >> well, obviously an incendiary device. we saw in it austin.or the bureau to be involved, that says there might be some indication that there might have been a device found possibly. that's something they could be pulled in on. there are so many believes here. for police to put together a sxrimt make sure they don't let anyone involved get outside the perimeter, and b, to move to and find wherever the shooter is. this place is so cavernous. that's where the intelligence will play in and be so important. you know the old saying about combat or law enforcement. initial reports are always inaccurate so law enforcement has to sift through this. understanding that the reports they're hearing through social media, the reports through two people might have sustain exact sail they know but from a different perspective. >> josh, your response to the fact atf san francisco is college to the youtube headquarters to assist in this operation. >> it will be all hands on deck. you'll have federal, state and local law enforcement. we'll see the unified command

the fbi and atf have joined the search as well. after fleeing the waffle house, he is believed to have gone to his apartment complex which is less than a mile away. he was last seen in the woods close to the complex. police say one of his pistols is unaccounted for. meaning he might be armed. >> well, he's on foot, so unless he's been picked up by a car, unless, you know, other means of transportation, he would be fairly close. residents, we're telling everybody to be very cautious. we don't want to alarm people but certainly everybody should take precaution. it could be he's an unoccupied house, it could be he's in an occupied house. it could be that he's, you know, hiding in the woods. we just don't know. >> this is some scary stuff. the 24-year-old walked into the waffle house just after 3:00 a.m. on sunday, wearing only a jacket and armed with an ar-15. he allegedly shot and killed two people outside and two more inside before he was stopped by this man, this hero, james shaw, shaw was hiding in the bathroom when he heard a pau
