to greta. >> greta: juror number 3 is here she one of the 12 who signed on to the casey anthony not guilty verdict. hear from jennifer ford in minutes. >> casey anthony is given the toughest sentence judge perry can give on four counts of lying. how much more jail time will casey serve? here's judge perry: >> there being no legal cause shown why this court should not impose sentence. and the court having previously adjudged you to be guilty of the crimes contained in counts four, five, six and seven. i will sentence you to one year in the orange county jail. imposing a $1,000 fine on each count. all four counts to run consecutive to each other. giving you credit for the time that you have previously served. >> greta: casey is fined $4,000 and sentenced to four years in jail. with credit for time served, how does that add up? >> the defendant was given credit for 1,043 days. and at this time, her release date has been calculated as july 13th, 2011. >> greta: that's six days away that's how much longer casey anthony will spend in her jail cell. next wednesday the 25-year-old will walk out th

. >> greta: fox news alert. the president and speaker of the house taking to the airwaves were' in trouble. we hit the debt ceiling that means no more money august 2nd, unless something happens fast. we could face default that could be catastrophic. >> the president: a significant number of republicans in congress are insisting on a different approach. a cuts-only approach. >> it is called the cut, cap and balance act. it cuts and caps government spending and paves the way for a balanced budget amendment to the constitution. >> the president: that's not right. it is not fair. >> before we pass the bill if the house the president said he would veto it. >> the president: many republicans in the house refuse this kind of balanced approach. we are left with a stalemate. >> there is no stalemate here. we are going to pass another bill. if the president signs it, the crisis atmosphere that he has created will disappear. >> the president: this is no way to run the greatest country on earth. >> greta: we have a jam-pack

. >> greta: outrage and anger. many people are horrified that casey anthony will be walking free that day is almost here. after nearly three years behind bars sunday casey will walk out of orange county jail. welcome to a special on the record, countdown to casey's release. as one of the most recognizable defendants in the country, what will her life be like now? during this hour, you will hear from the jury foreperson and another juror. you will hear what happened inside that jury room. you will hear how long they took to come to a verdict that has so many people so mad. and how the jury thinks caylee may have died. and the many suspicions about george anthony, sexual abuse allegations and that smell of death. you will hear from the prosecution and casey's defense attorneys. what will happen when casey walks out of that jail? holly bristow is in orlando. >> at this point, we don't know specific details on how casey and the me will be released sunday. what we do know it can be any time after 12:01 a.m.. as we've se

now back to greta. >> greta: what about senator reid's debt ceiling plan?ions. nice to see you. where are we? what do you think about the reid bill? >> we are at the 11th hour the reid bill is not adequate. he purports to reduce spending over 10 years, 2.7 trillion. we've done a fair and honest evaluation it reduces spending one trillion over 10 years. he is asking for on the one to one idea of increasing the debt limit, the amount of spending that is reduced as an interim measure would only take us a few months maybe to the first of next year if his bill was to passed and honestly scored. >> greta: explain, when you talk about cutting something, are you cutting real dollars that are appropriated for projects that you are going to pay for now or are you talking about something off in the future? >> i don't believe senator reid's plan has the teeth in it that speaker boehner's reduction spending plan does. he puts mechanisms in to make it hard to violate that. >> greta: speaker boehner's? >> speaker boehner's. >> greta: but not impossible to violate. freshme

>> greta: this is a fox news alert. president obama and speaker take the debt ceiling battle to the american people. we're days from hitting the deficit ceiling. no more borrowing, no more money. what is going to happen? good evening, sir. >> thanks for having me. >> greta: what did you think of the speech tonight? >> the president seems to be clinging to that status quo of wanting to tax more and spend more. i think speaker baneor is absolutely right. you can't keep spending money you don't have. and there is a lot from china you don't stay a strong, forceful nation if you owe that money to a foreign country. >> the president has signed on as much as anyone signed on at this point to senate majority leader harry reid's plan. could you? >> no. a lot of budget gimmicks and a lot after tack -- accounting tricks. you listened to the president. what did you hear? scare tackics. -- tactics. you saw a president using poll-tested words he thinks are going to poll well with the american public. the president is there to educate

there is no leadership, greta, none. >> greta: here is the problem.say that you have a senate majority leader who says that the one idea that is on the table, the cut cap and balance idea is the worst legislation in history. calling conservatives who support it weak and senseless. and then you have a republican congressman saying to a republican congress woman that she is vile and insults her in other ways and sends that e-mail around for leadership and then a veteran democratic senator making insulting remarks about the speaker of the house boehner making cracks about his tears and about his golf. i could would on and on and on. how are you as the president of the united states going to show leadership with everyone being unbelievably obnoxious to everybody here on the hill. >> the only guy running for president who has been both a congressman and governor, omaha bank one. i have been there, done that. left there happily. it is a circus. these people are clowns. they are wearing makeup. they don't tell the truth. there is no plan to reduce the defici

record" with greta van susteren.dict as to count one we the jury find the defendant not guilty so say we all orlando, orange county, florida on this fifth day of july 2011 signed foreperson. >> greta: casey anthony will soon be walking free many the jury found her not guilty. now you hear from her defense -- her defense attorney cheney mason. we interviewed one of the jurors, the foreperson watch he said was the reason behind the finding was the prosecution couldn't prove to them beyond a reasonable doubt the cause of death. i asked him to explain this duct tape. because it has hung up a lot of viewers. could you explain to me, we don't have the photograph. where was the duck tape on the remains, when the remains was found? >> there was no duct tape on the remains except for the hair mat on the lower right side. piece number three was found about eight or nine feet away. there was never any evidence of duct tape being placed across that child's mouth or nose. that was a figment of mr. ashton's imagination. >> greta:

dow down 100 points today. >> greta: okay. let's say august 3 they wake up and there is a rude awakening and turns out oh, oh my. they thought goitsing to happen, it does happen. then what happens? >> markets have been wrong, so have television commentators. >> greta: what happens then? >> well, i don't know if we want to think about that. it could be ugly. remember we have tarp. it didn't pass first time around, the dow dropped 800 points and congress came back and backed it. >> greta: so a couple days of -- . >> i'm not saying it's not going to be a bumpy ride. we have all of the politics and but none of -- nobody on either side of the aisle is saying we're going to have a default and that we're not going to not agree to pay our bills. >> greta: i can't imagine us defaulting. the united states defaulting? sounds unheard of. and newspapers from around the world online. i see what they're saying about us. and other people discussing it. we can't do our own finances, it's rather humiliating. >> greta: don't start on the s and p

that. >> greta: after you her the opening statement. prosecution, before the defense opening statement what did you think? >> what threw me, it was shocking. i was very shocking. again, i didn't follow much of the case after the first couple of weeks. with what the state was presenting, i thought that was pretty standard. in the opening remarks they did show some pictures that were -- that will stay with you for life. we realized how intense and how serious this case is. when the defense got up, then that's when they started throwing out things that we did not know. and that's where it kind of hit us. it was something that we had to sit back and let soak in. and just see where he went with from there. i was shocking. it was very eye opening. it is a situation that i will never forget. >> greta: the people who watch on television or in the courtroom, we can divert our eyes from the pictures of the remains. they are horrible. you are the fact finder, you can't. you had to look at the worst pictures. >> yeah, we did. we had to look at it.

back to greta. back to greta. >> greta: where do house democrats stand?plan. good evening sir. >> how are you? >> greta: well. would you vote for any bill that has any entitlement cut was ? >> i would. i think there's a way we can reduce what we spend in medicare without cutting within fit -- benefits for people. for example, we don't negotiate the prices of prescription drugs on medicare the way the va does that. would save 3 -- 300 billion dollars over 10 years. i can vote for that. >> greta: why don't we negotiate and save 300 billion dollars? whose idea was it not to do that? >> whose idea do you think it was? that the drug companies when medicare part d law got written were concerned about negotiating prices. they had the republicans at the time, write in a provision that said you are not allowed to negotiate the prices. so the people who benefit from the program by selling the drugs are making the deal on this. it is a horrible idea. we should change that >> greta: 300 billion dollars. any other cuts to the entitlement programs that you would -- you

back to greta. >> greta: it is getting as bad as elvis sightings.it is casey anthony sightings. is she in florida, california? rumors of sightings of casey are flying and all over. do casey's parents know where she is? were they asked to be decoys during her release sunday? joining us mark lippman the anthony family attorney. good evening mark. >> good evening. >> greta: do the parents even know where casey is at this point? >> no. the family has no idea where these at. all we know is that she is safe. >> greta: do they want to know where she is? >> they have a legitimate concern for her safety. they want to make sure wherever she is, that someone is taking care of her. if they needed to know because nobody was taking care of her they would be asking. i've been repeatedly assured she is safe. >> greta: there was a report that the parents were asking to be some sort of decoy the other night when all of us were scrambling to see where she was going after she was)tr released. were they really asked to be a decoy? >> yeah. i had a conversation with mr.

>> greta: no. because the defense doesn't have to prove anything, what the defense has to do is poke holes in. the prosecution's own expert said they could not deny it was an accident. i think shifting the burden. they were poking the holes. the prosecution necessarily then couldn't meet its burden of proof. >> i agree with poking the holes. this juror said a couple of things many on your interview last night, i read the transcript. when it came down to mr. baez showing how the anthony family got rid of their pets, he made it clear, a conclusion in quotes, i think this is how they got rid of caylee's body. so, he's not only speculating. he thinks, absent of any evidence, except for how somebody buries a pet. it goes farther. this man believes that just one hair with a decomposing band on it, forget the decomposing band, a hair of a child in the trunk is no big deal. i don't care if it is one hair or a million hairs. >> greta: i disagree with you on the speculation. i think asking the jury to specul

greta is next. we'll see you tomorrow night. >> greta: tonight, do you know who said this? get your ass in line! come on you heard that before. those are speaker bane's -- speaker boehner's words not mine. >> first mr. speaker, is it true that you told some of the republican members this morning that you need to get your a-word in line behind in debt ceiling bill? >> i sure did. listen this is time to do what is doable. and this bill isn't perfect. i told the members that the last couple of days. that's what happens when you have a democrat controlled senate and a democrat in the white house. >> greta: the speaker needs 217 votes or his bill is buried. do we need to remind you, we hit the debt limit sick days. one congressman in the speaker's words getting his ass in line is florida congressman allen west. tweeted boehner plan is not perfect. however the fact pelosi, reid and obama hate it, makes it perfect enough. where is their plan? even if the boehner plan passes the house the word is it is dead on arrival when it gets to the senate. theti÷o áqnate majority democrs jus

greta is next. we'll see you tomorrow night. >> greta: fox news alert. the president and speaker of the house taking to the airwaves were' in trouble. we hit the debt ceiling that means no more money august 2nd, unless something happens fast. we could face default that could be catastrophic. >> the president: a significant number of republicans in congress are insisting on a different approach. a cuts-only approach. >> it is called the cut, cap and balance act. it cuts and caps government spending and paves the way for a balanced budget amendment to the constitution. >> the president: that's not right. it is not fair. >> before we pass the bill if the house the president said he would veto it. >> the president: many republicans in the house refuse this kind of balanced approach. we are left with a stalemate. >> there is no stalemate here. we are going to pass another bill. if the president signs it, the crisis atmosphere that he has created will disappear. >> the president: this is no way to run the greatest country on earth. >> greta: we have a jam-pack

>> yes. >> greta: george? >> more than 100%. >> i have specific instructions for the bondsmen and bounty hunters they are not to question her in any shape or form. >> the attorney has told her not to speak to anybody. >> of course that is the advice i would give. if a mother is missing a child that mother wants to find that child and they don't don't about keeping the agreement with the lawyer they think about finding the child. >> she did a stupid thing going in. now compounded by lying to the cops. now maybe she has this fear that if the cops go after that individual it causes my child's death or harm. i don't know what she is thinking. >> greta: casey anthony is free. she walks out of the slam her after a bunny hunter posted $500,000 bond. >> you will get -- get your chance. >> breaking news. today in orlando, florida, a utility worker stumbled on the skeletal remains of a child less than half a mile from the home of missing 3-year-old caylee anthony. >> i can tell you that the investigation is continuing.

>> greta: why did you? >> i hate to use it as an excuse, but -- i know if you know better you are supposed to do better. i can honestly say i didn't know. i didn't think that i would ever get caught or get punished behind it. >> greta: did you enjoy -- i don't want to get too graphic i know you've done your time. even wayne writes about the fact that you tortured dogs, holding them water. to me it is unthinkable. how do you do that? >> it is tough. when you are caught up in the lifestyle and when you are being pro-active and srfled you are not worrying about what people think or what is right. -- you just react and doing it. you just kind of do everything unconsciously. >> greta: the animals must have struggled? >> it was tough. like i said, it was tough. my thing right now is just about making change. that's the reason i'm sitting here with wayne that's the reason we have such a great relationship. because i'm trying to help more animals than i hurt. i think that's what it is about. the reason we were up o

now, back to greta. >> greta: many arizonans have had it with the obama administration.for help about border security and many felt that they got absolutely nothing. so when they passed their own law sb 1070 and then got something from the feds they got sued. now, arizona legislators have gone to plan b. just launched a fund raising website under a new legislation signed by governor january brewer. they collect donations to build their own fence along their border with mexico. how does the website work? tax deductible. any word from president obama and how much money is being collected? joining us is chief correspondent for capital media services. howard, tell me about the website and how much money they are collecting? >> the website went live at 12:01 a.m. arizona time. as of a half hour ago they collected some where in the neighborhood of $34,000 from donors. a lot were the minimum $5 donations. i understand there were several $500 donations and at least one of a thousand dollars. >> greta: what is the website called. we see it on the screen but tell me what it is. >>
