>> well, the prosecution is trying to prove that this was a premeditated, planned murder by hemy neumanthe defendant, and that is because he was having an affair with andrea sneiderman and he wanted another man's wife, so he killed that other man. that is the prosecution's theory of the case. now, of course, the defense in this case is saying, that's not true. there was no affair. he is out of his mind. he suffered from delusions and he thought perhaps there was an affair. he was deluded. and that's why the prosecution is trying to show the jury that an affair did, indeed, occur. >> sunny hostin, thank you so much. >>> in today's human factor, dr. sanjay gupta speak with celebrity chef and cookbook author sam talbott, about living with diabetes. >> for sam talbott, making food taste good has been important for a long time. way before people started to get to know him on tv's smoo celebrity chef." >> i was cooking pizza when i was 14 and my first professional job i was about 15 years old. >> naturally good at cooking? >> yeah, naturally. it just is one of those god-given abilities. i rem
