cathy shelton, that young woman, is here with us tonight.

she was able to essentially bring down the charges for the man that brutally raped cathy shelton and recording talking about the polygraph tape and hillary clinton chuckling, she -- >> we have that. can we listen to it? >> please. >> she's talking about the polygraph and how she no longer believed in it after this case. >> of course, he cries when he did this stuff. he took a die he tech or the test. he passed. which forever destroyed my faith in polygraphs. i handed it to mahlon gibson and i said, well, this guy's ready to come up from new york to prevent this miscarriage justice. >> she said it's the absurdities. >> she knew -- >> why is is that not excused? you don't always believe in the client. the role of the lawyer in the system. >> i think this really becomes a character issue. this isn't something, agree to disagree on this one but this is not a case she had to take and when you have someone that committed such a brutally horrific act of raping a 12-year-old, i think that really becomes a character issue. >> last question. >> a person to be leader of the free world. >> donal

case gallagher is here to explace the case. >> sure, back in 1975, cathy shelton accused a 41-year-old man of rapeing her. clinton says she was appointed by a judge to defend the accused rapist. part of her defense was filed an avid saying i have been informed that the complain ant is emotional untable. and seen here in a daily mail dotcom photo says she made false accusations before. when the affidavit was shown to her, she says she never fantasized about older men or ever accused anyone. she thought clinton was likely just doing her job. but then in 2014, audio of clinton discussing the case and laughing went public. watch. >>> clinton claims she was not laughing about the case, but the absurdity of the system. and now cathy says that clinton put her through hell requesting everything polygraph tests and w sexually explicit questions. shelton disputes that and it is true that some evidence was mishandled and the accused rapist struck a plea deal to lesser charges and spent less than a year in jail. >> thank you, trace gallagher. >>> now to a very interesting take on the latest twists

cathy shelton, that young woman, is here with us tonight. so don't tell me about words. i am absolutely, i apologize for those words. but it is things that people say. but what president clinton did, he was impeached, lost his license to practice law, he had to pay an $850,000 fine to one of the women, paula jones, who is also here tonight, and i will tell you that when hillary brings up a point like that and she talks about words that i said 11 years ago, i think it's disgraceful and i think she should be ashamed of herself if you want to know the truth.

paula jones, cathy shelton and kathleen willie there with donald trump on his facebook page. trump shared this video saying join me in st. louis as i conclude my debate prep. will this lend some credit to up allegations sex assault against bill clinton in that debate tonight with hillary clinton. those women are expected to be in the audience for the town hall debate along with former president bill clinton. >> and both nominees arrived in st. louis earlier today and as they get ready to face each other in about an hour, they are expected to both face obviously some tough questions. trump regarding his remarks on women and hillary expected to deal with those more recently leaked e-mails and big nes earlier both sides seeming to focus on donald trump. >> are we really going to risk giving donald trump the majority he needs to roll back all of the progress we have made over the last eight years? i don't think so. >> i think the point that we make is he has apologized for this. and we believe if he gets to the issues he is the candidate that is much better suited to run the coun

reporter: then reaction to the tone of the debate and having three of bill clinton's accuser and cathy shelton whose rapist she defended. >> nothing surprises me about him, really, dan. i was surprised by the absolute avp lafrn of falsehood. you remember polit factses said he was one of the most untruthful candidate. they said he was 70 percent untruthful. he exceeded that tonight. >> reporter: democrats are looking at a new poll by nbc and wall street journal before the debate that shows trump trailing hillary clinton by double-digits. the poll conducted that clinton had 46 percent of the support with the likely voters compared to 35 percent for donald trump. we predicted yesterday that the two candidates would not shake hands and they did not. at the end they reluctantly did so. you could cut the tension with the knife last night. >> came through on the television, too thank you very much, jennifer griffin. >>> speaking of tension. ryan said he can't campaign with trump. he will defend the republican majority. peter? >> reporter: jenna, this is nothing short of an emergency call with the hou

. >> and the fourth woman, that's cathy shelton. >> at 12 years old, hillary put me through somethingthat you would never put a 12-year-old through. >> as a young lawyer clinton was appointed by the court to represent a man accused of raping the girl. shelton says clinton attacked her character and struck a deal for the man to be sentenced for a lesser crime. >> and i had a professional duty who represent my client to the best of my ability, which i did. >> critics of the clintons insist all of this cuts hard against hillary clinton's claim to being a defender of women, while clinton fans say, no, it is just another attempt among many to tar the name of good people. don. >>> all right, tom. thank you very much. fair play or crossing the line? we'll see what the experts think next. if you have medicare parts a and b and want more coverage, guess what? you could apply for a medicare supplement insurance plan whenever you want. no enrollment window. no waiting to apply. that means now may be a great time to shop for an aarp medicare supplement insurance plan, insured by unitedhealthcare

. >> reporter: at the pre-debate press conference, cathy shelton, who was raped by a man who hillarynton was later assigned to defend as a young layer, and two others accused the former president of sexual misconduct. clinton denied the charges and settled the sexual harassment suit with jones for $850,000. then there was juanita broderick. >> bill clinton raped me, and hillary clinton threatened me. i don't think there's any comparison. >> reporter: bill clinton's lawyer denied the allegation saying in 1999, any allegation that the president assaulted mrs. broderick more than 20 years ago is absolutely false. allegations of sexual assault are not unfamiliar territory for the republican candidate. during their divorce in 1991, trump's ex-wife accused him of raping her before she withdrew them. the clinton accusers were not the only threat to the democratic nominee last night. >> if i win, i'm going to instruct my attorney general to get a special prosecutor to look into your situatiobecause there has never beenn so many lies, so much deception. there's never been anything like it, an

cathy shelton, that young woman s here with us tonight. >> there is certainly no argument that clintonse on behalf of her client. she's also true she laughed several years later in an interview but not when talking about the vichlt here's randi kaye. >> it happened on this stretch of highway in 1975. a 12-year-old girl brutally attacked by a 41-year-old man. they were reportedly in his pickup truck after midnight and parked in a ravine. that's where she says he beat and raped her. the sixth grader ended up in the emergency room. the young lawyer called on to defend the suspect in the case was none other than hillary rodham. she had moved to arkansas to be with her then boyfriend bill clinton. hillary rodham was running the legal clinic at the university of arkansas in fayetteville. the defendant thomas alfred taylor, who denied the charge had requested a woman lawyer, so the judge appointed the future mrs. clinton. it would be her first criminal defense case. >> mailin gibson was the prosecutor at the time. >> the day after she was appointed, she called me and asked if i could get her

cathy shelton. defend her laughing on the tape years after getting that guy a plea bargain. >> first, she wasn't laughing at that -- she was not laughing at that young woman -- >> she was giggling, she said, i never had faith in lie detector tests -- in her arkansas accent, wherever that came from. >> tonight, patricia smith is coming. that makes a lot of sense. i know for my family, for my kids, i want to be physically safe, financially secure, free in this country. >> yes. >> help me understand why bringing president obama's half-brother tonight, how does that help voters know who they want to elect as the next president of the united states? >> well, that's all right. he wanted to come and we're happy to give him a ticket. >> you guys are friends with him? >> i'm not personally friends with him. >> donald trump's friends with him? >> we're very inclusive. >> so just -- it's being inclusive, that's why -- >> no, we're happy to invite him. i would contrast that and let's just make sure everybody kn

shelton. paula jones. these are women who made strong accusations against bill clinton, except for cathy.he has accused -- she was a rape victim. hillary clinton has a public defender represented the man accused of raping her. donald trump is speaking of these women. i don't know if the audio is good enough. we can't understand what he's staying, but this sets the stage for what can be a really ugly and contentious debate tonight. the fact he's brought these women here to a hotel in st. louis, has invited cameras in there to see them, to hear them. i can only imagine what's going to happen later tonight. >> what they're saying is almost irrelevant because it is the picture that donald trump and his campaign clearly want to get out here. paula jones you see on the right side. as you mentioned, kathy shelton in between. she's a little different than the others. the key point that donald trump has been trying to make on twitter and has been trying to use breitbart news, which is a conservative news outlet, the head of which -- a former head is effectively running trump's campaign. they've al
