several months later, on the morning of september 12, 2001 michelle harris reported missing by her attorneywho was contacted by one of michelle's female friends. then september 30, 2005 cal harris indicted by a grand jury on one count of second-degree murder in his wife's disappearance. june 7, 2007 harris is found guilty of second-degree murder but just after the guilty verdict a new witness comes forward claiming he saw michelle the morning after she was reported missing. arguing with another man in the harris driveway. in july 2009, cal harris granted a second trial and is found guilty for the second time but the verdict is overturned on appeal because of two procedural errors. in may 2015, harris his third trial begins but the jury comes back deadlock and a mistrial is declared. harris's fourth trial is set to begin this thursday. felice wheel, she is a fox news lenient legal analyst. bob bianchi a criminal attorney and former head prosecutor and trial attorney. wow. this case has beengoing on and on and on and he is using for it to continue but this time without a jury trial . just all

new evidence including charred clothing linked to the victim and found four years later after michele harris: calvin harris defense team thinks the truth about what happened to michele harris may lie at the bottom of this burn pit. it's on property once owned by a man they believe is responsible for her murder. >> the color of the charred fabric is navy blue and tan. those are the colors that michele was wearing the night she disappeared. >> reporter: but no trace of michele harris' dna was among the ashes and there is no guarantee the evidence will even be allowed in cal harris' fourth trial. he is already been found guilty of her murder twice since 2007 and 2009. those convictions were later overturned on appeal and a jury deadlocked in his third trial last may. harris has always maintained his innocence. >> it's been a nightmare. i've been ripped away from my kids, three times -- three times i've been sitting in a jail cell or a prison cell and wait for a judge or judges to overturn this thing. >> reporter: prosecutors believe harris murdered his estranged wife in september of 2001 but wi

harris' defense team claims to have new crucial evidence. but will it be permitted in court? abc's matt gutman has the latest. >> did you kill michelle? >> absolutely not. absolutely not. and the fact that i'm sitting here and having to go through this is just a horror show. >> reporter: for 15 years, cal harris has been adamant he did not kill his wife. >> nobody should have to go through this. nobody. >> reporter: in fact, he has given that same plea not once, not twice, but three times. >> neither a murder weapon nor her body has been found. >> reporter: the first two guilty convictions overturned. through it all, his four children supporting their dad. >> it was unfair. we shouldn't have to live at home without both parents. especially because our dad didn't do anything. >> reporter: today marking the beginning of cal harris' fourth trial. a judge granting the team's request to waive a jury, meaning the verdict is now in the hands of the judge. his team confident that new information they've obtained will finally prove harris' innocence. >> we had evidence at the third trial that two individuals had burned bloody clothing in a burn

corey lewandowski yanked michelle, he bruised michelle. ben harris and michelle told that story. now they're lying. their story has evolved from corey lewandowski never touched michelle fields to well, she sort of had it coming. >> what's your message to ben shapiro? >> it's another megyn kelly hit. my message is speak to the lawyer on the other side because he said give me a break. this thing is so minor, it's so incidental. that -- and the lawyer by the way, i don't even know the lawyer, but the lawyer did an excellent job and if you put his side on instead of this so-called reporter that said things that frankly he has no right to say, but i wish -- instead of him, put the lawyer on. hear what the lawyer said. because the lawyer can't believe charges were brought on this very minor -- think of it. in the world we have people's heads being cut off, we have people drowning. the bottom line for me, it would be very easy for me to say, corey, you're fired. you take a look at that tape, corey, you're fired. that's crazy. i don't feel -- he's a good person. he's a good human being.

harris. his wife michelle disappeared 15 years ago. ourt papers said the harris' were headed to divorce and prosecutors said he didn't want michelle to get a chunk of the family fortune. thank you for joining us. >> i am going to start with you. how dew try someone first of all four types for the same crime and they don't have a body or murder weapon. >> they have little evidence. this is how it happen. it is a lot easier to get a wrongful conviction than wrongful acquittal and that's where prosecutors are emboldened to take cases to trial. here for instance. it was over turned and second conviction over turned and third time they couldn't come to a decisions. i would think prosecutors would say we have the wrong guy and don't need to waste taxpayer resources and we do it over if and when we get additional evidence. >> should we expect anything different this time around? >> fourth time is not the charm. for whatever reason. they couldn't make it happen after all of these tries. first two times they got the conviction. it was continue e
