mr. bender, do you know? >> well, i know yesterday, officials were saying that he was not in very good shape. he certainly wasn't able to speak. apparently is he communicating. he has answered some written questions. i think the focus at this point or in the early interrogation has been on public safety issues. in other words, were there accomplices? are there other bombs that need to be diffused. that sort of thing. clearly, you know, he is in the hospital. he is handcuffed to the bed. he has now been charged. and you know, they are going to want to get everything possible out of him. >> is there word that he is cooperating? do we have any guidance on that at all? >> the reports that we have heard is that he has been cooperating to the extent he physically can at this point. and he has been given a public defender. he has been assigned a public defender. but, you know, again, he is in pretty booed shape. he had a wound to the throat. self-inflicted it seems. >> bill: yeah, we know he is in bad shape. the doc
