joining us again tamara holder defense attorney and also with us carlos diaz, correspondents at "xtra" and also -- all right, tamara starting with you, what's the prosecution's game plan with this, showing this video? again, this is a pregnant woman seen in this state. what's their end game here? >> well, you know, i think that the judge actually ruled against allowing them to bring it into evidence. i looked up just recently and i think i saw that. and the reason why is because, first of all, it's really prejudicial. i've seen the video. it's disturbing. it's sickening but also very is prejudicial to the three defendants in this case. the other thing is, you can't really prove that anna nicole is -- was under the influence. of course, it looks like she s. i think she is. but, if you're in court. it's a lot different. we don't have video of her, you know, ingesting pills or anything like that. when you are in the court of law it's a lot different than when we are trying the case on tv or youtube or whatever. >> let's go. >> the other thing is -- sorry. >> carlos, what do you know abou

. >> and carlos diaz, i will leave that on your page. and this is the question. is she a hypocrite. 80% that responded said yes, and 20% said no. let's get to a couple e-mails. 80% of the voters say shes a hypocrite and there is one that says she is not. but she is still selling the book, and it's working for her one way or another? >> i think you need to think about what you need to talk about, move forward, and direct it, you know, address it head on. in my interview that i did with her on "inside edition," and i asked how do you feel people say you are a hypocrite, it's an opportunity for her to say we all make mistakes, and then you need to move forward. i can't say it enough. >>> thank you, both. and this just in about the j lo sex tape, earlier today a judge issued a restraining order until december. >>> and shocking new revelations out today. it's about the new legal fight he is about to lunch against sarah palin and her family. >>> and the stage is being set for the most bizarre courtroom drama ever, featuring not only jon and kate gosselin, but lindsay l

i'm with carlos diaz. we'll start with you. is she out of luck here? >> well, the legal answer is, it depends. how vivid got the tape. if she gave it to her boyfriend as a gift, here's a tape i gave to you, and then he turned it over, it's a gift he can do whatever he wants with it. it depends on how the company got that tape. while it's a sex video, think about a picture. if i gave a friend a picture of myself and then they went and sold it but it's just a picture of, you know, an innocent picture, it doesn't seem like such a big deal. it's only a big deal because it's a sex tape. if she's giving it as a gift -- >> the guidelines are the same as if it was a conservative 5 by 7 versus -- >> she's giving it as a gift. just because it's a sex tape, does she have a privacy issue? she's giving it to someone as a gift. she's putting it out there. it goes back to, again, and again, don't make those kinds of tapes. >> carlos, do we no how vivid got the tape? >> we have no idea how vivid got the tape. this is not going to be the most popular thing you're going
