. >>> and back with our panel, jeffrey toobin, mark o'mara and sonny hoskins. i know you're critical about the way it was handled. some accounts, some very co consistent with forensics. >> it's a plausible decision in light of the evidence presented to it. the fact that new witnesses, new to us, supported officer wilson on the key, key question of who was charging at the last minute, that, to me, suggests that a conviction in this case would have been virtually impossible. sure under certain circumstances you could have got ten a grand jury indictment. the appropriate standard is could you get a connecticvictio based on the evidence i've seen, i don't think they could have got ann cten a conviction, fran. >> you challenge anyone to find something that's not matched by officer wilson's account of what happened, right? >> and that's what's most intriguing to me and i think in a case like this, while wilson may have filled in some of the lack of memory with information, when we look at the forensics, it is in line with what wilson said. and one of the most compell
