live from san francisco, i'm tara moriarty, back to you. >> tara, was there any reaction from jose inezarcia zarate as the verdict was read? and i understand that kate steinle's family wasn't there today for the verdict? ? she can't hear us. kate steinle's family wasn't there today for the verdict. um, and i don't even know what -- i can't imagine what they are going through right now trying to process it. >> we want tro bring in our legal analyst -- we want to bring in our legal analyst, not guilty of all murder and manslaughter charges. you have been trying cases for more than 35 years. your reaction to this? >> i am -- i am very, very shocked at this. tara mentioned the liberal san francisco jurors. i know they're very thoughtful. i respect jurors. i respect their verdict in this case. i don't happen to agree with it. but they came to a decision. and i really think when you mention that the d.a. talked about zarate pointing the gun, there was no evidence that i know of in this case that would sell that theory. that would make it a first- degree murder. you point, you pull the trigger

first though to our tara moriarty. she was in the courtroom this afternoon when the verdict was handed down. tara. >> reporter: there was absolute silence especially when the verdict was read on that not guilty manslaughter charge. all of us in the courtroom just looked at each other and went, whoa! everybody has been following the case from the beginning has been saying, you know, he is going to be guilty on that charge. but today, jose ines garcia zarate found not guilty on the manslaughter and assault with a semi-automatic charge. so clearly the jury bought the defense argue that the shooting and killing of 32- year-old kate steinle two summers ago on a crowded pier was an accident. this has been a case chockful of weapons experts, there was also very emotional testimony from steinle's father on that first day of the trial. he described how his daughter who was walking arm and arm with him on pier 14 fell to the ground after being shot in the back. the bullet was a ricochet and the defense argument was that the gun

tara setmayer. hello. >> good evening. >> what? what? why that face?r face. why? >> because -- well, from the that tweet, number one, but also because it was announced tonight that the rnc is actually going back to financially supporting roy moore. i'm watching the republican party destroy itself. this is outrageous. i cannot think of a time when the republicans, who the party i have loved, worked for, supported for 20-plus years of my life, when they've ever been so morally bankrupt. you know, it reminds me of a quote by benjamin franklin that says "only a virtuous people are capable of freedom" and adds "as a nation becomes more corrupt and vicious, they're in more in need of masters." that is exactly what's happening today. the tribalism that we are seeing within the party, what's happening in alabama, the fact that the national party now is backing this incredibly accused child molester is despicable. >> you're wearing an earpiece, right? do you hear the hhh? that's ed martin. >> it's amazing. it's amazing. >> she's talking about you, ed. she's tal

as tara was saying, this is the last paragraph in the "washington post."bout the tape where he was speaking -- >> at a rally. >> at a rally. this is the last line. it says "34 minutes and 56 seconds into the video he says unequivocally i did not know any of them, gibson said. in that moment, it changed my perspective. i knew he was a liar." she initially supported him. that's her thoughts. >> yeah, look, don, what i'm saying to tara, she can go on a rant, she can list all these things -- >> those are facts, r not a rant. >> listen, don, if you're going to let her interrupt -- >> you're talking. go, go, go. >> look, here's the facts. the facts are that six weeks before an election, when most of the people on all sides of the aisle didn't want roy moore, these rolled out and i have said over and over again that we ought to honor the people accusing him, but the fact is that there's lots of discrepancies in the accusation. >> no, no, there's not. >> to go on -- to go on to national tv and call someone a child molester is absolutely despicable to do and here y

tara? >> yeah, we just got off the phone with police in las vegas who say they were investigating cacatian for two counts of attempted lewd acts with a child under the age of 14. we are told that the incident happened three years ago and that the suspect was associated with the victim's family. this was not a case of a stranger molestation. it is a revelation that has been shocking not only to friends and family, but colleagues as well. antonio cacatian who was by all accounts well liked by his fellow officers committed suicide sunday afternoon. sources close to the investigation says he was under investigation for having sex with a girl under the age of 14. >> it's pretty scary. >> neighbors say they never saw it coming. >> being a cop, you would not expect anything like this from a cop and it goes to show people that have things that they are hiding they don't often look like the big, scary monsters. >> the nine-year veteran of the department who worked at park station was pulled over by

>> i agree with pretty much everything that tara said there., roy moore denied these allegations. but he was not out the there fighting them every day. i and she should have been. there were other -- he ran from the media. i mean, there were what i was going to say is there were other reasons he lost that. he had no ground, ground gate and quite frankly, the democrats ran a great campaign. they outworked him on the ground, but the thing about i it is is that doesn't have anything to do. yes, president trump endorsed him, but i endorsed mo brooks. our organization endorsed mo brooks. we e supported roy moore because he was the one that was going to push the president's agenda. building the wall. of tax reform. the people of alabama spoke up and they chose a different candidate. i respect that and i think roy moore should concede. it's time to put that behind us and move on. but at the end of the day, the president was voted into office in all of these allegations were out there and now, just in the past two days, john solomon from the hill, we'v

more reaction now from ktvu's tara moriarty . >> reporter: outside the hall of justice, two small groups of protesters clashed. one side believes the case against jose inez garcia zarate never should have been prosecuted as murder. the other says a not guilty verdict means no justice for kate steinle. >> the prosecutors did not do their job. they failed to put on a good case. maybe this will make the country up and make them think about what they are doing. this is becoming too liberal. >> reporter: tony rivera's says he and others in law enforcement were disappointed and frustrated by the verdict. >> it is symptomatic of an attitude of accountability and political correctness interfering with accountability for people doing bad things. >> san francisco public defender jeff ketanji says the prosecutor overcharged his client and the jury knew it. >> it was sort of a throw the book mentality. what was unusual in this case was that they argued in the opening statement for a second degree and then came back later and said we are going to charge this is a first degree. >> legal analysts have

where the old gate in the fortifications had once been he put up a baroque triumphal arch at tara to his enemies loyal to his allies and his people's pride and joy. another tribute to the french king the elaborate arrangement of columns in classical roman style gave a lively aspect to the national monument for the adjoining walls to left and right and i found an appropriate facing. non sees triumphal arch is not only a glorification of the sovereign from the point of view of city planning it is the pivotal point of the whole system of squares. with dramatic elegance it darkens the stage for the next act the plaster. originally an old justin field where chariot races and contests to be held in the sixteenth century stanislav had it completely reconstituted the only similarity to the plaster on his last is the magnificent iron work we are already familiar with. for the facades of the houses that lined the plaster like i am a rather plain and classicist style was chosen. but this where two has something theatrical about it crossing its almost three hundred meters one comes quite suddenl

tara, where are you on this? for a member who also was on the foreign affairs committee, and so we saw a lot of cyber security issues concerning china initially, years ago, asymmetric warfare. is what she they used to call the cyber warfare attacks coming from china. it would be naive to think russia wouldn't be involved in a similar strategy to attack the united states. russia has been involved, part of a 40 year strategy on russia's part of reflexive control theory, which is basically perception management. what they do, and they've done this in the ukraine, in europe, and now they have employed this tactic in the united states. they manipulate, they have disinformation campaigns, they manipulate information to try to convince people of a predetermined outcome that the russians want. if this is not a textbook example of this theory, i don't know what is. and for the president of the united states to be in denial about this, because it hurts his little feelings. >> that is disrespectful to say that. >> he has ne

joining us now is tara dowdell and kurt bardella. tara, i'm glad you are here.now donald trump. you were on "the apprentice," you were a contestant on the show. does this person who is now denying that it's him in the access hollywood tape, even though you see him in the tape and hear his voice, who still apparently is a birther, believes barack obama lied about his birthplace, and still thinks he won the popular vote but for voter fraud, is this the same person you knew when you were on "the apprentice"? >> i want to stipulate a couple of things up front. number one, donald trump has always been a liar. that's something that's been consistent throughout his entire life. but with respect to his behavior now, it is markedly different from what i experienced on "the apprentice" and also when i met him in my capacity on the gubernatorial campaign in new jersey and when i worked in the governor's office in new jersey. what i see as different, i think some of these things he's saying now are still strategic. talking about obama's birth certificate, that is sort of wh

you live japan's finance minister tara wasso echoed that bitcoin has no it yet been proven to be credible enough to become a currency and that's despite is government officially recognizing big cohen earlier this year but i am if head christine the god has a different take on big coin saying it could give currencies and monetary policy a run for their money interesting stuff especially considering today's news. and you almost broke another record today and is now hovering around eighteen thousand dollars it's up twenty fold this year as you know tilton has been following this story closely for us aaron is the big buzz more about the cryptocurrency itself or about the technology behind it from what i read at least well i really think that depends on who you ask when it comes to individual investors of course they're looking at this you know twenty fold growth that bitcoin has laid in this year i mean it's gone from a belief about a thousand dollars per bitcoin last year to as you said over eighteen thousand and that's incredible growth so of course you have individual investors looking at

david gergen, gloria borger, jack kingston, brian fallon and tara setmayer. what do you make of the president's remarks so far? >> classic trump. lots of red meat and he's in trump country. and i reckon it will help roy moore some next tuesday. at the same time, it's important to point out that if you look nationwide, the trump rhetoric is actually continuing to lose some of its appeal. that is a very dangerous level for a president to reach nationwide. but in terms of what he's trying to accomplish, i think he probably helped himself and probably helped roy moore. >> you pointed out last hour by doing this rally in florida, the president doesn't have to be with roy moore on stage. no photograph of them together. the message is certainly the same. >> yeah, he says vote for roy moore and made it very clear, we can't afford to lose this seat. the president believes this seat is more important than any damage this might inflict on the republican party as a whole, say, in the midterm elections or the tough decisions republicans would have if roy moore is elected.

tara moriarty was with her as she took questions about the tough job ahead. >> lodged breed, our new mayor, come on, guys, give a hand.
