. >> as his son sits in jail, richard jackson hires veteran defense attorney michael malloy. malloy is convinced the team has a tough battle ahead if police have something as solid as fingerprint evidence. >> i probably told them, i can fight like hell for you but i've got to tell you if they're your son's fingerprints in blood on the fan on top of the body, you've got a problem on your hands. >>> coming up, can the jackson team take on a time-tested forensic science and win? >> there's no doubt about what we needed to do. you got prints, prove them wrong, you're out of business. you can get a $1,000 turbocharged reward card with a new volkswagen turbo. so why are we so obsessed with turbo? because there's nothing more exhilarating than a powerful ride. and you can get that in places you might not expect. like the passat. and also in the fun-to-drive jetta. in fact, volkswagen has sold more turbos than any other brand over the last ten years. that is a lot of turbo. hurry in and you can get a $1,000 turbocharged reward card when you lease a new 2014 passat s for $219 a month.

it's not hard to see that dan malloy has decided welcoming those children to connecticut would be risky to him politically. to save himself this fall, to keep his political career going, he needs to say no right now to washington. he needs to say no to those children. and now think about another democrat, martin o'malley, he's also a governor. governor of maryland, he's also a liberal democrat, but unlike dan malloy, he is not running for re-election this year. he is very interested in running for president, for the democratic nomination for president in 2016. and so right now, to put himself in position to maybe possibly have a chance of being the democratic candidate for president in 2016, martin o'malley really needs to go after the hearts and minds of the democratic base. that democratic base really seems to want to find a place for those kids. >> i believe that we should be guided by the greatest powers that we have as a people. and that is the power of our principles. through all of the great world religions. we are told that hospitality to strangers is an essential human dignity.
