when you execute someone who has been there for 12 years, you are not executing the same man who came in. the notion that the system has no flock, -- stanford law school has posted something from 1900, and this is well documented. these are innocent people being executed. in that same time, almost 400 other people were released from death row before they were executed because they were found to have been innocent. >> ladies and gentleman. at 4:a.m., edward earl johnson was executed in the gas chamber -- with the sentence of the second court, and i'll be glad to entertain any questions that you may have. >> he indicated his innocence, and he regretted the situation and he felt no ill will towards anyone. and he was thankful that the process was coming to a close. and he stated, that he was not guilty. >> innocent people go to death row and more of them die. this was enough to cause any government to stop and take stock of where this was regard to the death penalty. in regard to that question, it always comes down to the morality of it all. >> let's start with questions for the panelist

in california, everyone who has been executed has been 20 years after the crime and you are not executing the same person. people do change. from my observation of the victims' family members, and nothing that there is anything that execution can do for them. i think they come there with high hopes that they will somehow feel better, and that they will somehow be able to close this event, and you just -- it just does not happen. these are horrifying crimes. my heart goes out -- out to the victims' families. >> would you say that the instances -- instances of the executions, or any of these meritorious? did you see someone put to death that he thought was innocent? >> not in the cases that i dealt with. the things i oversaw, and guilt or innocence was not a question. in one case, it was the intention and not whether they were innocent or guilty of the crime. >> nevertheless, you arrive with the same feelings that the man from mississippi talked about, having gone through this process. >> i arrive at the same conclusion. i started at san quentin in 1978, after graduating. i went there, a sm

is advancing the executive branch's policy, sometimes it's people of conscious inside the executive branch with the leaking, you point out that there is one way in which the executive branch can handle that, and that is to be more transparent. and so that the check and balance may actually not just be move/countermove, but move/move/countermove/countermov e. so if there's some reason to believe, having interviewed so many people inside the executive branch, that that might be possible. and i wonder if joe has a view about that, charles has a view? >> if i understand your question correctly, i'm skeptical. the problem with secrecy in the government is that the executive branch determines what's secret. and it has an incentive to overclassify information. and it classifies way too much. that is a true statement and no one even inside the executive branch would deny there's excessive classification. justice stewart famously said when everything is secret, nothing is secret. and the reason that the government is so porous, the secrecy system is so porous, and every day on the front page

unless a convicted cop killer troy davis is set to be executed davis was sentenced to death for the nine hundred eighty nine murder of savannah georgia police officer mark macphail one juror who convicted davis questions her decision he's also in cities in a set and there are a lot of disturbing new questions that have been raised in regards to his case. it was a rare case where a national conversation was actually being had about capital punishment and even the mainstream media had no trouble shedding light on the case or a man whose guilt could not be proved beyond a reasonable doubt he was then put it that there was no physical evidence linking him to the scene just eyewitness accounts seven of which were recanted well before his execution date it's a horrible example of how our justice system operates and now sadly a part of our very tainted history of executions in this country now i'm glad they paid attention to troy davis' case it deserved every minute of attention that it got right up until the night that davis was put to death but it also made people ask if this could lead to mo

there is a third category which we would refer to as executive, sole executive agreements. that is to say where some agent of the executive branch makes an oral or written agreement designed to bind the country. there is a statute that deals with this. title 1 section 112 b of the u.s. code. what that siz is when there is such an agreement entered into that within 60 days of the agreement being entered into the secretary of state has to notify the house and the senate where presumably the house and the senate for all of our powers whether appropriations powers. there is a technical possibility that the executive branch could bind the united states at least for the 60 day period before this would happen. i guess i would ask anyone on the other side. are there any examples where this administration has bound the united states to such an agreement and then complied with the 60-day notice that is in title one second 112 b. have they done that at all? >> i do not know but one addition from our hearing. they expressly stated in our hearing that they intended not to seek senate ap

it took me seven execution dates. i watched 12 then be executed while i was there -- i watched 12 and then be executed while i was there. i'm not in a position to say whether either of them -- whether any of them were guilty or innocent. mr. d.a., i am asking you, truly consider leaving the death penalty along. let that be in god's hands, what that person goes through or deals with. there are too many flaws in our system that we cannot control and we cannot trust a man. i am asking you to consider that, to take the consideration of that. the question we did not answer was it one of these guys were in this and that was executed by a prosecutor that had evidence that was clearly convincing that that person was innocent, what would you do? that was a simple question to me. that was not a tricky question. it was a straight up question dealing with innocence and the prosecutor doing something that was considered murder or attempted murder. you could answer that. you faded around that question, and to me, that is enough to

>> if i can clarify on the execution of a lease, it is executed by the landlord delivered to the citypending the board authorizing it. just to clarify. the good question about bifurcating the base lease from the tenant package. the challenge that we have is that for the project to move forward and our timeline to be met, we need to engage in design and construction services team from hudson pacific. the ownership needs to have confidence that the tenant improvement package is something that is approved as well by their tenants before moving forward. it is difficult to do one without the other and not have a serious schedule impact. we would be on hold taking the design to the next level to price this and get it into construction. supervisor kim: one other recommendation i would make is that we would be happy to come back to the board -- >> one other recommendation i would make is that we would be happy to come back to the board to clarify improvements. we know that we have the $61. we can hit the ground running on a fund-raising campaign. i would be happy to come back and report to th

as well instead it seems like when states don't have the proper materials to carry out an execution they just grab whatever the medicine cabinet and just inject the inmate with that instead of an execution is not the time to experiment like it's freshman chemistry class and this haphazard approach to ending lives is really just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the issue is the discussion that we need to have about capital punishment here in america with the mounting economic and physical evidence against the death penalty i can't help but hope that more states out there might follow in connecticut's footsteps and abolish the death penalty altogether but i'm not going to hold my breath when states like missouri are marching on against all reason so playing mad scientists with people lives on the line in missouri to missouri's department of corrections is tonight's tool time winner. our guys it's time for happy hour and joining me this evening party correspondent christine freeze out and independent journalist run a college girl thank you for joining me i think there's day happ

decide to approve or not approve the executive action. look into the future to say that is a mistake. to have the full gloating gauge meant with very few exceptions did not bless with the executive was doing but in some cases sharply pushed back like military commission. of the times there was the power of it. for those anime combat in san gitmo. we may regret that but looking for the legitimacy. where there we read read it i doubt it but i cannot prove that. obviously. >> falling upon the last question i am curious to the panel's thoughts on the issue of farming out to of regulatory lourdes checks and balances of congress through the aclu or gao or for a request the panel seems to agree with lion exception from the latest batch, wondering about the future. with the financial industry, there are many regulators charged with overseeing to protect the safety of the system of. overtime phenomenon of regulatory capture authorities hold the philosophies of what they tried to regulate. if you have the inspector general as the highest person to

executive order. when you hear the words national ocean policy it sounds benign, but that is only a small part of the story. the scope and reach of this regulation is why we have the chamber of commerce, american farm bureau, timber, mining and fisheries groups weighing in against this executive order. it affects our whole nation and our whole economy. a drop of rain ta falls on your property could be subject to this law. now, the last thing we need in washington today is more bureaucracy and you can see this executive order creates a huge bureaucracy at a time when we are trying to grow our economy. this law, this policy has been debated in the last four congresses, and each time congress elected to do nothing. so congress explicitly do not intend for the oceans intend to be zoned. executive 13547 has no specific statutory authority and no congressional appropriations to pay for the cost of this new bureaucracy. there are 63 agencies that are involved with this new policy. the last thing we need is m

administration by the executive. so i think the basic trade-off between -- and i think this responds more directly to sandy's point, is you could have a government by legislature which we see in a lot of european countries who have parliamentary systems of government. but they trade off, it's very hard for legislatures to act quickly. they may make less mistakes, right? the more people who participate in a decision, the less likely they're going to make an error. .. >> so to me i actually agree with sandy. i don't think czars are constitutionally problematic. i think as a matter of administration, it might be a bad the as policy but i think it's because presidents have taken on themselves to try to get so involved with the legislature, so involved with the laws that they need more and more people to access them by don't think it raises any great constitutional difficulty. libya, however, i think is a demonstration in the last few years about presidents actually have been trying to bind themselves to reduce the kind o

executive in the auto industry, and i've asked him about that. teepees that it's a testament to his value that he contributed to the company. on the other hand, you know, a lot of people lost their jobs over this period of restructuring, as you know. i think it's hard for some of those people to see him making so much money. you know, as far as moving his family here, you know, i think that's a good question. i mean, he's a seattle guy. he spent 30 years of his life at boeing, and when he is done your forte is going to go back to seattle and retire because that's his home. but, you know, he knew he was coming here to do a job and when he's done, he is going home. >> anyone else? >> in your interviews with alan mulally knowing that he came from boeing, and all that went on with boeing and his previous boss is now in jail, was any come in your conversations with him, did you ask or did he somehow indicate that he was upset with losing the top dog job at boeing? because my understanding from reading the 21st century jet, about the triple seven, was

i backed other women as chief executive officers. one of the concerns i have had is that there is a glass ceiling. we talk about that a lot. i believe is there. what of the challenges is knowing where it is in each company. you cannot really tell. one proposal i made is that in all public companies, when they file their 10k, they include a breakdown of women and minorities by in come inside the company. you can look at a company and say, are there any women in this pay group? that would allow us to see where glass ceiling is. i donot want the government to regulate quotas or whatever. i find that in corporate america, when executives look at the information, they get the message all by themselves. you will see american change as people see where the glass ceiling exists. i would be happy to have my own companies conform to that same standard. >> from october 14, 1994. mitt romney losing the senate race to senator ted kennedy. was there a consistency or a similarity to what he was saying back then about these issues to what he is sayi

but when there's an execution, they take on a more somber tone. >> i saw an execution yesterday. so heavy, man, that black body bag on, man, he looked like he was tall. the family of the victim, the doctor, the nurse, seen all them come in. i was like [ bleep ]. i was scared, petrified. it's a sad occasion. >> all executions occur at 6:00 p.m. on that day, the prison goes under lockdown restricting any movement. >> an inmate will be escorted into the cell. there is no property allowed in the cell. everything he would have had in his cell would have been confiscated. if he needs to use the phone, we will allow him to use the phone. his mail is brought to him. he has an opportunity to read it. passes it back out. last year we did one. i think the year before that we probably did three or four. this door leads us into the execution chamber. we actually have three viewing rooms. of course this is the gurney. on the left he has his witnesses and the news media and then on the right are the victim's witnesses. he's escorted in, basically sits down, a team of people strap him down on to

so he said you should follow the laws as they are, not to execute power over it so he should follow the constitution as written. >> good, you follow the constitution as it's written. let's look at section page 34, so the left-hand column here, the second full paragraph there, and the only power therefore which the president possesses were the life, liberty or property of a private citizen is concerned, is the power and duty prescribed in the third section of the second article that frank just mentioned, which requires that he shall take care that the laws be faithfully executed. he is not authorized to execute them himself or through agents or officers civil or military appointed by himself, but he is so take care that they be faithfully carried into execution as they are expounded and adjudged by the coordinate branch of the government, to which that duty is assigned by the constitution. it is thus made his duty to come in aid of the judicial authority. if it shall be resisted by a force too strong to be overcome without the assistance of the executive arm. what is tawny arguing ab

he jumped at the idea of executive action. i had five or six other points. a few days later, he called me in and said, sergeant shriver convinced us of the civil rights section that would have black and white leaders and hispanic leaders and all the black leaders that we could get to actually join the campaign. we've learned about your ties in those years. would you go down and work with sergeant shriver, who i had already gotten to know separately and knew he was somebody i enjoyed more than anything for the next ten years i had in my life. night and day we were in the civil rights section. a key part of it was the democratic platform, which was the most far-reaching political civil rights platform that any party had ever had even with the republicans and abolitionists blooming. it was an extraordinary one that went further than they wanted because -- because chester bowles was the chairman of the democratic platform committee. he signed us on civil rights to have a maximum platform and a minimum that we would fight for because he knew he would have to comp

he became county executive of milwaukee county following a recall. and he has signed recall petitions, as my understanding, against senator finegold, against senator cole not for criminal misbehavior but because he disagreed with political decisions, the decisions that he made led to this recall. >> absolutely the law should be changed. i think democrats, republicans alike realize that spending $16, $17 million on another election is just a horrible waste of money. but it's the law right now. at some point in the future after this is all said and done, we'll move on as a state. we'll be able to move forward. you'll see democrats and republicans not only in the legislature, but voters across the state that want to see a change. i think that's something important. but today we have a chance to debate the future. i'm going to spend tonight talking about the future. >> our second question is from erin davison directed first at governor walker. >> change in public employee collective bargaining law last year is one of the reasons we're here tonight. gover

the closest thing. >> you view yourself as the chief executive officer, the chairman. who is your board of directors? >> i would say it's probably a combination of the commission, but the congress as well i think serves a role in its oversight capacity to oversee the operation. >> did this gentleman and lady sitting next to you yoor board? >> that's one way to characterize the commission as a structure that way. that they're responsible for establishing the policies of the agency as i am a member of that as well. >> right. if one of these four other members asks for a vote on something and four of them vote that what you're doing is wrong, do you consider that to be persuasive, interesting, or obligatary? >> well, certain if the commission takes an action and we have formal procedures to carry on our actions, then, of course, those are actions that i would follow. >> if they asked to vote not to be locked out of getting information as alleged under oath here, is that your sponlt to ensure they had full access to information and never were denied any information that yo

30 second as piece. >> scott walker became county executive. something he doesn't want people to remind of. he signed recalls against senator fine gold and sense senator coal not because of criminalist behavior but he disagreed with political decisions made. the decisions he made let the leading to this recall. >> absolutely the laws should be changed. democrats and republican as like realize spending 16-17 million is a horrible waste of money and after this is all said and done we'll move on and be able to move forward and you will see both not even in the legislature but voters across the state that want to see a change. that's important but today we have a chance to debate the future and i'm going to spend tonight talking about the future. >> erin davidson. >> change in public employee bargaining law last year is one of the reasons we're here tonight. governor walker would you seek the same changes in the same way? and do you plan more collective bargaining jobs and mayor barret if you disagree, some of which you used to your advantageous in

>> well, among other things, i said with one stroke of a pen, cuisine the executive order eliminating discrimination in federally assisted housing that the civil rights commission had recommended and was sitting on eisenhower's desk for six months or something like that. with one stroke of a pen. he said i like that. you know, we talked about the problem of the southern legislators filibustering any legislation, so he jumped at the idea of executive action. and i had five or six other points. a few days later, he called me in and said sergeant shriver has convinced us that we should have a civil rights section of the campaign, not just a minority votes section but a civil rights section that would have black and white leaders and hispanic leaders and walter luther and all the black leaders that we could get to actually join the campaign. and we've learned about your ties in those years. would you go down and work with sergeant shriver, who i had already gotten to know separately and knew he was somebody i enjoyed more than anything for the next ten years that i've had in my life. so n

. >> i think the senior executives were all misinformed and shielded from anything that was going on. >> ...and his companies plagud with questions. >> someone took charge of a cover-up which we were victim to, and i regret... >> how did the owner of a worldwide media empire come to be hounded by the press and haunted by the death of a teenager? >> that's what absolutely turned the whole thing into a complete nightmare for rupert murdoch. >> mr. murdoch, at what point did you find out that criminality was endemic at news of the world? >> "endemic" is a very... a very wide-ranging word. >> tonifrontline correspondent lowell bergman goes inside the phone hacking scandal... >> they hacked my phone and they ran some pretty hideous stories about my sexuality. >> they hacked my messages between myself and the chief executive. >> ...that rocked a governmen. >> this is becoming a very, very big scandal. biggest news organization in the country are in trouble, biggest police force in trouble, and furthermore, the new prime minister's right-hand man is in trouble. >> and continues to shake the

>> if i can clarify on the execution of a lease, it is executed by the landlord delivered to the citypending the board authorizing it. just to clarify. the good question about bifurcating the base lease from the tenant package. the challenge that we have is that for the project to move forward and our timeline to be met, we need to engage in design and construction services team from hudson

but he is to take care that they be faithfully executed or faithfully carried into execution as they are expounded and ajudged by the coordinate branch of the government to which that duty is assigned by the constitution. it is thus made his duty to come in aid of the judicial authority. if it shall be resisted by a force too strong to be overcome without the assistance of the executive arm. what is taney arguing about the nature of the presidency there? what is the role of the president, according to taney? frank? >> it's the judicial and the congressional branches. it's like a subordinate role in which he carries out their will rather than carrying out his own will. >> yeah, it's a subordinate position. to assist judges, if the judge tries to prosecute someone, or the if the judge is presiding over a prosecution and the marshal goals out to arrest the person and the marshal can't do it, then the president should send in the military to assist him. what do you guys make of that argument? yeah? >> it's an odd argument because in the constitution itself it doesn't list so much powers

>> well, i mean, hamilton was very much a fan of a strong executive. and to an extreme degree in that time period that some people accused him of being a monarchist and trying to introduce a king into the new republic because he wanted such a strong executive. on the one hand, you could say he's in favor of something or would have been in favor of something that would have been presidential power. but on the other hand, in that time period, i think america hadding to think differently about war because the government was new. we basically didn't have much of an army. we didn't have much of a navy. we basically didn't have a way to fight a war without deliberately setting about to do something. as much as i think he would like the enhancement of presidential power, he was in some ways a realist about what should or shouldn't be happening in war. i think generally speaking, we had an almost war with france, the quasi war, i don't know, it's kind of a gyp of a name for a war the quasi war. >> it was actually called the quasi war. >> it was. this almost wa

item 10 is authorizing the executive director to execute an agreement for. of five years. >> good morning, directors. this is a contract for the temporary terminal. in your packet, you can see what they are advertising and what it is projected to look like. it would be advertising space on 48th on the windscreen panels in the temporary terminal. there would be additional space in the future. they think it would be cost- effective or produce more revenue to use more locations. we would negotiate additional revenue at that time. there will also be space reserved for the transgendered bay project on this flight. all the advertising -- for the transgendered bayt -- ransbay project. the agency has reviewed the proposed advertising and give their approval. the amount tjpa will be $50,000 annually escalated by the cpi, or 44% of net revenues, whichever is greater. we anticipate those revenues will go into deep future transit center. my colleague is here to answer any questions and i can answer any questions as well. director kim: do you have any questions? director
