mr. wagoner, a spousal privilege? do you have a response, mr. keith? >> this has been waived. there have been numerous public statements by the sheriff with regard to marital strife before this incident, after this incident, in his own decision to get counseling, discussions he had with her. >> please speak up. >> discussions he had with her. a front-page story in the chronicle about their communication they had, following this incident. there has been a ruling by a superior court that marital privilege was waived, based on that. i think it has all been disclosed. at least a substantial portion. chairperson hur: i would like to hear from mr. waggoner. i would like to give the crowd notice. this is live testimony. it is very serious. while you might have a reaction, i ask that it not be physical or verbal. if there is one, we will have to ask you to leave. the sheriff has instructed if you see anybody make an outburst, please remove them from the hearing room. thank you. please come to the podium, so we can hear you, mr. waggoner. >> mr. keith is correct, in that the superior c

mr. wagoner said. this is public information to the attorneys general office. so the question is whether or not that information needs to be provided in a public way in order to preclude the proprietary information from being proprietary. and this is about looking at the protections in state and local law. i think the information has been provided in a more than adequate way. supervisor: ok, i have a question. i think they will now give it to the board of supervisors. if i kit -- could through the chair, do we have a right to ask for that information as we are making a decision on whether or not to approve this project? >> certainly, we have the right to ask for any information that we deem necessary to about in a project that is before you. supervisor: ok, thank you. thank you. i want to see a project move forward. this goes to the heart of a key question as to whether or not we're going to see this hospital operating at st. luke's for 20 years, so how can we as members of this board look at our constituents and say on this very important matter that we guaran

wagon to help them. how could he be drunk? well, mr. webb evidently doesn't know as many drunks as i do. but the fact of the matter is, the fact of the matter is, john lloyd is the only person involved in this case that has a single direct statement or says a single direct word about mary sitting right there. mary's not happy with me. mary's not happy that i'm talking about her son. but mary knows in her heart, even though she did not know in her head, that he's involved in. this. and basically, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, i am asking you please to look at all this evidence. look at the evidence, the things that happened, the things that directly impact on her. with the exception of john lloyd, not one person says she was in any meeting other than the few meetings she was with booth, the most popular -- you know, booth was friendly with john ford. booth played at ford theater one month before the assassination. booth played to houses all over the world. in fact, all over the north. could anyone, anyone looking at john wilkes booth, could anyone talking to john wilkes booth not be f

i didn't roll off the cabbage wagon yesterday, mr. speaker. i chaired committees for over 20 or 30 years, and i have conducted more investigations than any man in this particular body. it is clear that the events here were characterized by dishonest, evasive and deceitful activities on the part of a.t.f. personnel. i want to find out what has happened. this is not the first time i've crossed swords with a.t.f., and this is not the first time i have found them engaged in shameful, illegal and improper behavior. in one instance, i caught them raiding the home of an individual. they shot him in the brain and they pitched his wife in her underpants out in the hall. operation fast and furious was a highly irresponsible operation that never should have occurred. people on both sides of this aisle agree to that. the american people want the answers, and they deserve to have a proper, thorough and bipartisan investigation that gets them the truth. my constituent, brian terry, wants the truth. from the grave. and his family asks that we get the truth.

mr. wagoner, anything? ? no, thank you, commissioners. >> thank you. >> i think at this point, we should take the lunch break. i would like to take a 45-minute break if that is acceptable to the parties. >> yes. >> yes, that is fine. >> i understand we need to clear this room entirely during that break. also would expect -- i also would expect we would get back at 1:00 and have testimony from that point. let's take a lunch break.
