mr. gougherent -- >> sure, sure. >> just for the record, i do not believe that a level of education is in any way commensurate with common sense or savvy or understanding everything that you need to know about this case just through life experience. i want you to know that. i don't care that he only went to high school. plenty of people have done that and achieved great things, let alone know why the heck they were in a car videotaping something like this. let's put it to the side. mr. bryan, what do you want the audience to know about your role, your feelings, and your sense of responsibility for this situation? >> is that a multiple question, chris? >> mr. gough, let him answer it. i'm sure he'll do a good job. you can always answer -- you can amend after. mr. bryan? >> i would just like to say, first of all, i am very sorry to the family. i pray for them every night as well as my own family. >> all right. mr. gough, do you think that your client should be understood -- >> yes. >> -- as part

and peace to the family. >> mr. goughg now. >> yes, sir. >> what do you want them to understand about why your client was where he was, if it is not true that it was done in coordination with the mcmichaels? >> chris, i don't think it's any secret. my client lives in that neighborhood. >> uh-huh. >> he's at his house minding his own business, and i'm trying not to complicate anybody else's job. he's at his house minding his own business and things happen and in a matter of minutes, his life has been changed forever and this family, the arberys, their lives have been changed forever, you know, and it's sometimes difficult in these situations to see the bigger picture. mother's day was not pleasant for roddie here. wasn't pleasant for me. wasn't the mother's day i was hoping for. but at the same time, roddie is going to have other mother's days. that is if nobody takes a potshot at him. the arberys will never be able to spend another mother's day with their son. so, you know, for them, this is -- it's hard to imagine anythi

mr. goughrget your lawyer hat for a second, just be a human being. 23 you're watching this at home, why would you think roddie bryan is anything other than he's suspected of especially when the accused pinpoint him in the incident report as trying to help their cause? >> i don't see anybody else taking polygraphs. to my knowledge, no other witness has taken -- >> polygraph isn't even admissible in court. polygraph is meaningless. >> since day one, he did that without lawyers. he did that on the day of the shooting. >> polygraph is meaningless. mr. gough, here's the easy answer to the question. here's the easy answer. let me help you and then i'm going let you go. did roddie bryan try to stop arbery with his car? no. why do they say that? because they're believing the mcmichaels and the mcmichaels are liars. oh, did he try to help the mcmichaels? no. >> i'm not going to -- evidence in this case you. i'm sorry, chris. that's just the way it is. i'm sorry if you were misled. >> no, no, no. >> good

that's where speedy justice comes into play, not what mr. gougharguing right now, because this process has just been going. a reasonable amount of time. what is not reasonable, if your guy didn't do it, say he didn't do it and explain why people think he did. that's not proving a negative. that is proving a positive that you have a strong case. >>> more on the big coronavirus news of the day. big questions on the antibody tests. i know everybody's wondering whether to get them. dr. william schaffner will help us understand the plus/minus next. okay, where were we? yeah, i'm done after this meeting. we're just going over how people who switch to progressive can save hundreds. hey mara! - yeah jamie's the guy running it. - mara, you're not on mute. i once had to fake jury duty to get out of talking about his yogurt preferences. mara, you know you're not on mute, right? oh, there's a mute button? yeah, that's flo! the one who looks like she'd smile while she sleeps. flo: i always smile. mara: that's why i said that. you try to stay ahead of the mess.
