i did not realize that. trying to highlight for you that there is a series of attacks over the course of an hour, and a phone call, and i am wondering if you remember there was any content to any of those attempts to contact? >> i do not recall. i know we were trying to connect with each other. i was working from home that day, and i know that we were hit and miss in terms of phone calls. >> ok. subject matter associated0-úetyh those texts could >> no, i do not. >> ok. the next is 3:31 it in the afternoon. does that more or less comport with your memory and timing? >> yes. ñ>> oh was this the call where you offered to provide referrals? was 40 minutes, i told her about la casa. i wanted to just make sure i was doing the right thing and helping her if she was in that me no, no, no, no. i just wanted to be extra careful and clear, so when we picked up the conversation, i asked her if there and the other referrals or anything do you want, and she said no. she started talking again about custody issues. that was

tavis: yes, i did. was about to go there. >> someone asked me just like you asked me, and i said, "that's a long way from picking cotton," and i did not have a machine. in a field with a sack on my back. so that's a long way. the jazz and blues clubs are like the jazz and blues musicians -- they are disappearing. somebody has to keep something going, and that's my purpose of keeping the club open. i am out here too regularly to say i have got to run the club, and thank god my children are taking it over now. tavis: you talk in the book about -- and this is my word, not yours -- about the challenge that you had at one point, figuring out whether or not you wanted to play jazz, because there was a point in chicago where jazz was higher on the register than blues was. >> well, i think it was about even when i went there. they had as many jazz clubs as they had blues clubs, and you had the greats there, man, like gene krupa. man, you had what they would call -- what we used to do is some clubs had 2:00 ligh

>> no, i did not. >> did he ask you about the text where you said "i need to protect you"? did not specifically asked about the text. we just started talking. >> ok. so you did not talk about how we needed to be protected or anything tofp7fi >> well, now that we are talking, you are jogging my memory right now, that is when i did say i thought it sounded really fishy, that it sounded better eliana was not being respected, and that was the extent of the conversation, and i told him that i thought that both he and eliana needed to get separate legal counsel. >> and did you make a plan to follow up about that? >> no. we did not make any plan. >> did he ask you to make a recommendation on legal counsel? >> he did ask me. >> and did you seek out recommendations? >> i gave a suggestion. >> did you give it in that call or in a subsequent call put >> i believe it was later, later in the day. >> ok. so this first call that lost about seven minutes, that would have gone to about 5:19, and then at 5:20, the sheriff calls ms. lopez. i am wondering if at the end of your phone call it he

>> i did not know. >> how did she know to call buckthe sheriff? not know. >> the device was just for legal counsel? apraxias. 57 6:06, she makes another suggestion to her husband. you should not be in a public space and go to sleep with pat. the know who that is? >> i do not know. the only thing i can think of is his relative named patricia. >> did you give any advice he should not be in public and should not sleep at home? >> i did not. >> you are passed your first estimate and your second estimate. >> i am doing my best. >> if there is something you would save 4 last, get there. >> i am there. moving off of january 4. here are some texts for exhibit 81, and you can see this is from january 8 at 12:00 p.ma.m, and you write, what is the salary range of staff? back to the priorip the next one says, i still need to send you the resume of someone that would be good. we were too busy before. do you know what that refers to? >> i was pregnant and getting ready for my baby boy that i have now. that is probably what this was. >> 5 was not a reference to

>> yes, i did. good >> what did you produce? >> i did not have any e-mails during that time.at is the time, december 31 through the first or the 14th? >> objection. >> sustain. >> would you like to review the court order? >> i am asking what is the time? >> there is nothing to refresh. >> what did you produce in response to the court order? >> overruled. there were documents the and were produced. the fact the documents were produced is not -- there were documents that were produced. the fact that they were produced is not privilege. your objection is overruled. = period they ask me i produced whenever i had, so i think it was two e-mails that i do not think were that related to the case, but i forwarded to . >> did you only search for documents within a certain time period? >> i think i put a search for all of the documents, and that is what i had, and it was during that time period. >> we know from documents there were texts in regards to these topics that you did not produce to us, and i am wondering if you can tell me why. >> objection, there is no foundation. >> overrule

i said, do not write anything. clearly he did not follow my advice. >> do you think your conversation with your brother was before you send this message? >> i clearly maremember my brother saying, shut down your facebook page. >> as far as the timing of that call, would it refresh your recollection if you look at the document dated january 5, the next day, you have to close the comments in facebook so no one can make a comment. our phone may

so i did the collection with my interpretation. i tried to understand the base, the concept, so it is good. you have to read, definitely. >> creativity is so difficult to define by creative people because you just do it instinctively. you were telling me that last night, something inspired you, and you went back andrew your next collection until 4:00 a.m. what inspired you? do you know what set it off? >> i think it is image sometimes. one that you do not expect can be also a surprise. it was not the case here today. yesterday during the night, it was more like an image that i have seen or received little and i did not know how to treat it. something making me think about it yesterday. after it came and i wake up, instinctively it came like yes, i could do it like that, so i wrote that to remember, and after i was into it, it was very exciting. yes, i find it because always, you are looking for something, you did not know what. until it becomes more concrete, it gives you -- i need to have that direction. it is a real pleasure. some

>> i do not remember -- did share of mirkarimi -- sheriff q%= >> i do not remember. >> what was your hen you met her? >> she was very nice and happy. >> how well did you get to know each other? >> do what point? >> would you describe her as your friend? >> i would say we are friendly. >> you would stop short of saying she was your friend. >> i met the candidate's wife, and we were friendly. >> i assume you notice english is not her first language. >> yes. >> how would you characterize her verbal english abilities them up >> is good.

and i did not stick around. the truck with the tags arrived and embrace myself unchanged over with the arctic wind blowing i prayed the nazis would not shoot us but none came. one guy muttered i have been looking forward to this for five months. to make sure it is all authentic. nobody responded. [applause] >> after that i went to florida and re-enacted the civil war because it was warmer. i do plan to read more. but i have limited time and "the dark knight" opens tonight. but does anybody have any questions about historical re-enactment of our why i am crazy? >> what did eat you learn about yourself? >> that is a great question. by the end was civic pride. i realized i am not a soldier. at all. i am 40 years old and passed that stage but i was working on the op-ed about soldiers and the draft and recognized and a.m. nine of those things. i would be a liability to troops in battle. [laughter] i met a vietnam vet. have you changed? he said yes. , i wish we fought to with the all volunteer army. weber useless. we h

i did not realize that was going to be the set up, and i apologize.is about in tangible benefits that flow to you from being a campaign manageress or anyone in politics, and isn't if the case that you connect with people in power and have the ability to influence their decisions? >> you can advocate through your community. that is why i do it.

did i get that right? >> i did not get the thing with africa. >> i thought that when we see -- >> yes, yes, 1985. the first corset dress, i did a collection. collections were big. it was a mix of difficulty. and the lingerie. one part was the lingerie. i did it i think in 1981. i came out with the collection in 1982. of course, i was inspired by my grandmother. but something else. musical. i saw a musical in new york. something like about the life of fellini. they made a movie of it -- only a few years ago, which was not so good, but the play was excellent. it was broadway. there was one scene where all the women were preparing themselves for the show. all in corset, like satin, salmon color. and i was fascinated with it. i enjoyed the show, but i was only thinking about that, i must say. after that, there was the corset of my grandmother, and at that i have to do it, but it will be a dress. i did attend different dresses. long, shorter, even like a gym suit. i didn't like my souvenir of the one of my gran

then i try to make it black. that did not work. the texture of the paintings, because i was putting paintings on him, did not go with it. so i had to destroy it and start again. blue, red, start again. all the make up was the makeup of my grandmother. you can see an exhibition a teddy bear. i should say that he is a little nice monster, but it is a little monster anyway. you know, i have some affinity with air. i'd love the air. i love to touch the air. >> i hope you like my hair, because of a drag queen's last night were trying to touch it. [laughter] >> for the moment, i am not yet a drag queen. but you can look at that photograph of me. thank you for the inspiration. [laughter] >> well we are joking about the corsets, you say it had a message. it was not showing the women in their undergarments for sexual reasons. it was to show their strong women. certainly madonna personified that. >> definitely. >> was it actually madonna in in 1990, the blond ambition tour, but this was not the first time you had done these bras. there was a

they keep insisting that i did. honestly, i wish i did, but i didn't. there's this misinformation that keeps going out. i spoke to several of the neighbors who signed the letters and they say, well, we didn't realize it was that big. when i told them it's going to be over 3,000 square feet, and the house i understood to be 810 square feet. i don't mind. when i remodeled my house i went from almost 1300 square feet to 2100. i didn't double the size of my house, i just built on top of it. this is an extensive project. most of the houses on the average are 1,500, 75 square feet. i left a little spread sheet there for you with all the houses on 26th street odd and even and also on cesar chavez, the street behind us. i used them as a gauge for the outreach program. those are the people that were contacted, so i used that as my reference. if you look at the dimensions of those houses, this house is out of scale. their own diagrams and their own sketches contradict themselves. so my concern is where is the clarity? i requested story poles. i never got them of

i did my ready-to-wear in my first years. and coutoure without realizing it. i think that honestly most of the designers of the 1980's were completely doing coutoure. it is real coutoure. only the fact that most of those clothes are manufactured after -- even some not manufactured right. maybe a piece that is a piece of art. i do not like that expression. so forget it. bessemer truly like making beautiful things. i went there. one * my partner, boyfriend, arrived -- one time my partner, borden, said mickey should do a direct election. i said, why? the designer from the 1980's. he said, yes, but maybe it is could for perfume, things like that. to have an international passport. ok. but deep inside, i know that i should have loved to make one coutoure collection like that. a dream of the elegance of paris. and i remember that i propose -- it was the last new bid of coutoure that arrived. i thought to propose -- [unintelligible] why don't you take one designer like vivian westwood or others to make one season, one coutoure collection? >> you should call some up im

i did everything. i did newscasts. i did sports. i did dramas. >> reporter: but in 1962, he found his true calling. >> the first quiz show i did was a high school quiz show called "reach for the top." >> here's the man with the action, alex trebek >> reporter: a dozen more than less than memorable shows followed. then in 1984, trebek hit his own daily double. >> this is jeopardy. ey called me up one day and said we're going to syndicate jeopardy. would you like to host it? and i said, are you going to pay me? they said, yeah. i said okay. >> reporter: i'm your man i'm your man. announcer: and now here is the host of jeopardy, alex

i did want to address it. en i first read sheriff michael hennessey's declaration, it gave me pause for that reason. itl1specific and in this case, as many people have said, fact do matter. it is a very fact-specific inquiry. sheriff michael hennessey did not make himself available for cross-examination after the commissioners had asked repeatedly about whether he would make himself available. he chose not to. i was not able to give his statement very much weight. i did want to address that. although they gave me pause, i could not give it much weight when he was not making himself available to testify. chairperson hur: i would agree with that. >> i do not know how we can judge this one as a matter of fact, nor is it our obligation to do so. if it has any relevance at all it would be to the appropriate response or disciplined for -- discipline for an act of official misconduct, whether someone found that he did it or did not. a lot of what we have been offered was with regard to assertions that other people hav

i sure did hope they give me that picture. i think it might have been bigger now one. he sure did. guess that's the only one. and that did get some proclamations, but they had to come to the democratic people in my memory. he did not just volunteer them. >> was the president again the answer? >> yes, yes. a very good. he has a lot of rhythm. >> how does he know how the dense so well? >> i and ballroom dancing greece and great. she found out that i did ballroom dancing for eight years i went all the way to the grand nationals in miami, florida. every one of them. in national champion ballroom dancer. your rubber worker. so you have to do something. that is what my grandfather's name is, grace. the articles he did for the magazine, agrees on one side and a grid on the l.a. we couldn't do that on the book. >> thank you for coming to the public library. >> thanks for having me. happen. [applause] >> don't settle for less. i have of the one i found that says make a difference. i did tell my passer that i wanted that to be a lifeline. she made a difference. they do, folks, for being here

>> i told her i did not recall exactly what i said because i was almost crying. >> ok. did you tell her not to cooperate with the police? >> i remember saying you don't have my permission to do this. i trust you. i trust you. >> ok. now, i want to look -- i want to go over some emails and text messages that you sent that afternoon. i want to give you exhibit 5 8. so this is an email message you sent to ms. madison on january 4? >> yes. >> ok. now, phone records that are already in evidence are exhibit 8 3 shows before you sent this message to ms. madison at 4:14 you had a call with linnette peralta haynes that began at 3:56 p.m. and lasted 15 minutes, 36 seconds. in that phone call with ms. peralta haynes, did you discuss sending an email to ivory madison? >> when i left ivory madison's house, i was so shaken that i couldn't find my car. so i was walking on the haith street to city hall and calling ross, calling linnette, calling ross, calling linnette. and then she answered and when i was talking with her and say oh, my gosh, she had a video, goodbye, goodbye, i have to

it is another thing to say, i will act as your attorney. did she ever say she would act as your lawyer? >> she said, i will take care of you. this is confidential. we need to make evidence. we have our office. i have been in court so many times. she has been telling me so many times she is a lawyer and using those words, i am all lawyer -- a lawyer. >> is it possible that at that point there could have been either language issues or some kind of cultural misunderstanding in terms of what she heard from you and what you heard from her? is that a possibility? >> it is. >> you have any understanding of why she might have been so upset or concerned about your situation after you described this incident to her? had you understand she would be really worried for your safety, up because you seem surprised about her reaction and her desire to call the police about all of these and events >> on january 1, she was not concerned about my safety. she said, i am so sorry this happened to you. you do not deserve this, and i said, of course i do not deserve t

>> she did. i believe she did. she did not call me. anted to talk to me and i believe she said please call me. >> did she say why she was reaching out to you in particular? >> she never has told me why. >> did she see what she wanted? >> only at one time, one of the second phone calls, i asked her what she wanted. after the call we had, i realized there was a lapse of time because i had to do a telecommute call and i had to texture back and she was not ready to call. when we talked are remember saying, do you need domestic violence referrals? just in case that she was not telling me everything. she was focused on the custody issues. that i thought i had better just ask her again. i asked her bluntly and said, could you tell me what support need in general? could you tell me what support you need from me? why don't you call me? and she said she wanted to make it work with her husband, she talked about her relationship and she wanted a warm relationship, she respected what he did and he did really good work. and he worked a lot and he was

i did not include that information for that reason. i feel that we addressed what we could given the parameters the commission gave me. i have not had a chance to look at what was presented for the final point. it is always something we could do as a supplemental later on. supervisor campos: in terms of the point that mr. fried was making and you were talking about jurisdictions where they have elections that are tied to statewide offices, do you have any response to that? >> new york city, for example, has september elections and even years and odd years. the election for mayor, for example, there are no federal elections on the ballot. in minnesota, they use september elections in odd years. it seems to me including those is comparing apples to apples. in terms of the state primary, all i was suggesting was using the most recent 2012 data because you are already using state primary. you already have said in the report. it stopped at 2010. including 2012, it would make sense. it is the most recent data. you already have a category for

i did not see this as being wrong. what people defined as a gang, that must be a gang member right there. i have tattoos on my arm and neck and hand, and none of them are getting associated. they all tell personal story in my life. somebody would say that this is a gang member. there would be the artistic side. i think that this comes to a place where there has to be a level of understanding. they have the school system and the politicians. everyone plays a part. [applause] >> you have worked as a police officer -- and now you're the prosecutor. you now prosecute all of the gang cases. what is your >> imagine you are 21, you are from mississippi, going through the police academy. it is 1989 and you are now working in los angeles. after being a patrol officer for just a few months, you are placed on gang detail. you have arrested a youth. instead of taking him to jail, you taken to his mother. the mother says, can you make him more afraid of you that of the gang members? the academy does not prepare you for that. i take

so i did, i was trying to hedge always and trying to create, like self-market myself, but i did not know where it would go. i did not know that i would eventually be hosting a show or be hosting in general. i did realize along the way that t.v. was a very key aspect to being able to have a viable career in the ski industry. >> how difficult, you know, all of that energy to win the gold, and i think of michael phelps right now in the olympics, you sort of hit a peak and he went through a process where there was a letdown. he said i don't need to do this anymore. dug through a similar process. >> i just saw the interview with michael phelps recently talking about the whole time after he won all those gold and he had the infamous bong incident and it was a time in his life when he was just done. >> done. >> it was great to see that, because i didn't know what was going on. i didn't know if he reached that or that was his normal m.o. after you win you're just done. after i won in 1998, i was just like i don't want to see another weight room or a ski hill, and that's skiing. you can imagine s
