emad hassan is said to have been force fed over 5000 time since his first hunger strike in 2005. his attorneys detailed several forms of alleged torture by the u.s. military. they include the water cure, a technique dating back to the spanish inquisition that inserts large amounts of liquid into prisoner stomach that harsh speed, causing severe pain. the case could lead to the first significant court hearing on the legality of force-feeding guantanamo prisoners. a louisiana prisoner has been freed after 30 years on death row. of theord walked out angola penitentiary on tuesday after a judge vacated his murder conviction and death sentence. ford's exoneration came after new evidence emerged clearing him of the 1983 murder for which he was convicted. details have been kept under wraps in order to prosecute the actual killer. ford, who's african-american, was tried by an all-white jury. he spoke rudely to reporters as he left the prison a free man. >> my mind is going in all directions. i was locked up almost 30 years for something i didn't do. when i left my sons were babies and no

i'm talking about, the secret service agent who dutch hotel employees found so drunk on the hotel hassanor that he could not get his key into the door. he should have been fired on the spot. he wasn't. union rules protect him. but he sure isn't the only one. remember the secret service agents in columbia drunk and with prostitutes? and how about the dangerous sloppy work in south africa where our president was positioned next to it a man clearly unhinged doing really weird gestures? not sign language. these aren't close calls. they should all get the boot and fast. none of that paid leave business. that's just you paying for their vacation. in the end there is no that they would be fired. maybe just reassigned. do you know what would happen to you on your job if you did half this behavior? it's time the law protects the president and protects you. not the federal employees ripping us all off. we need to change the civil service firing rules now. that's my off-the-record comment tonight. and straight ahead. the news that is shaking up the sports world, northwestern university's football p

day approach this problem to attack -- protect the law-abiding citizens is to identify those like hassan did to talk to the site go overseas? why can't they do to help you do your job to protect the privacy rights when they use their cell phones? this is so ubiquitous as a quick side story that the cell phone is so ubiquitous i have to see my wife she sobbed that neither she used to resent all the autograph seekers and she said for the first time in my life i walked past the long line and most of them never looked at me and they were all doing this. the ones that did spot her appointed a selfie. how do we protect our privacy but still allow to spot with the psycho communicating with the nets overseas? >> it is said grates and hard issue they could be used by of their nation states to listen to my a conversation. >> i don't use one relating to my office which makes my life harder because the kids can not text made during the day but i think all americans this country was founded in based on that power so i think it is great to last question instead we should explain how we use authority.
