douge also joined by burns. on the your thought murders?ey have had a high percentage of verdict in this case, but i have to tell you i am not surprised because they have the physician, direct witness to direct conversations, and that is extremely difficult to battle as a defense attorney. the one thing they had to work with you you is that the doctor , asascension -- work with you know, is the doctor was essentially given immunity. he was a have a respected 80-year-old physician, and that jerry believed him. -- jury believed him. >> su keenan and sheelah kolhatkar mentioned that this is part of a string of victories for the u.s. attorney's office. what is the significance of this -- that they are now getting these convictions in these types of cases? isit is interesting, and it a great question. insider trading, on some level, is not necessarily the most insidious of the worst securities crimes. there are other schemes, pumping and dumping stocks, and so on, and i do not fall the u.s. attorney's office at all, they followed this to where i

i talked to doug burns, former prosecutor. he kind of laid this out. melissa: don't you think if he had something he would have already said it to stop it from getting this far? >> that's a great question. to give steve cohen his due, maybe he doesn't have anything. i will say this, there is thing with some of these defendant who is think they're invincible and they're delusional, that they didn't do it and don't want to admit to their families. i talked to a u.s. attorney on this case. he thinks that's where he is. he just didn't cooperate against cohen. he didn't cooperate at all. he went for the gold and he had an impossible case to win. that says something about him. melissa: what do you think? >> well he's guilty of the guy is going to jail? will he flip? is there something there? i don't know. when it is time to be prosecuted getting his punishment maybe there is negotiation at that point but i have no idea. i will tell you that he is guilty. he is going to go to jail most likely and should go to jail. >> most likely? melissa: you've been a big d

a former federal prosecutor, doug burns also a former federal prosecutor criminal defense attorney.. >> thank you. >> thank you for having me. >> you know it raises the bigger question of, fake or real, and it seems like you can sue over anything you want, you just have to pay the filing fee. fred, is that the case here? bringing eli's name in to this whole mess? >> yeah, jamie, i think that's a lot of it. i've looked at this complaint and i think it's written more for television than for winning a lawsuit. i mean, there's a lot of stuff in here, and the fact that he's even making these allegations against eli basically have nothing to do with actually the real lawsuit. what it's really all about is the fact that this guy got indicted out of chicago based upon testimony from people from the new york giants organization, ultimately his lawyer showed that some of that testimony may not have been accurate and so the charges were dropped. and i think this guy is just taking a shot right back at them. and for a guy who missed getting indicted and going to jail he's making a lot of noise.

doug burns is a former petrol prosecuted. bobby it is here. he is now a professor teaching hedge fund investing at columbia university. welcome to all of you. let's start with you. you were in the courtroom when the verdict was read. expression, if any, crossed his face? blankhad a very dark, look on his face. the same look that has been on his face throughout this entire trial. he has been very hard to read. his wife was sitting behind them. she started sobbing. it was a very sad moment. when the jurors came in, you could see they were very somber. there were looking down at the ground. they were not happy about the news. >> the guy faces 20 years in prison. chime in when ever you like. what does this tell us about the likelihood or not that he may some kind of ake plea deal with the prosecutors and avoid some of a prison time? >> can you imagine the conversation when the lawyer when they were deciding what course to take? should i go to trial? the lawyer said let me give you recap. the government is 78 no. the conviction rate in court is 93%

doug burn $ a former prosecutor and he's a fox news analyst. now they have him.hey do with him? >> one is will he be tried in mexico versus the united states? then the secondary question is if he's extradited to the united states, we have cases against him in seven different districts washington, d.c. will decide which district case. >> you've got chicago, miami, new york. you've got all of these districts that want him but the first question is first, does he even get to the united states? jenna: and one of the issues with extradition, we have the death penalty in this country. how does that factor in? >> if we want him here and fast, because it takes up to six years to get his extradited from mexico, from 90 days to six years. take the death penalty off the table. jenna: mexico will not ex fra -- extradite him if it's on the table. >> we will not leave out the death penalty for him. jenna: he's one of the worst of the worst out there. why would we do that? >> to get him. >> it's going to put eric hold engineer a tough spot. how is he possibly going to make a pu

jenna: joining us is lis wiehl and doug burns, former prosecutor. let's start with the picture.ng argument. they say, look. if this woman was under duress, would she be taking smiling photos with her husband? >> absolutely not. they also brought up the fact she is an actress, she gave her award winning performance. she had an extra role on the stepford wives, among others. so she gave a really wonderful performance. whether that will get her off the hook or not, that's where we have to deliberate. jenna: what do you think? >> i don't think they'll find first degree premeditated murder. jurors always try to find something kind of in the middle. second degree or they could find accessory after the fact. jenna: that's some things we've talked about, doug. this jury is the majority women. >> nine women. jenna: but we had lawyers on yesterday that suggested women are tougher on other women. we can account for. doug? >> i don't know if i would subscribe to that. but this thing to me is a horse race and i'll tell you why, because you're sitting in the jury box, just break it down to th
