this is huge for the prosecution and the defense is trying to get it suppressed. you've got that former senator/attorney actually negotiating with john travolta's representative, and you're right, john travolta's representative is going to be the one contenting to all of this, that is a party to it. not actually, but criminal activity can be documented. then negotiating a sum that the paramedic wants to keep this document undisclosed from the public. not only did we hear amounts wantered back and forth, but we hear travolta's representative say, this is a crime. so we know knowledge of criminality is important in bahamian law. this is critical evidence for the prosecution. >> janie weintraub, i have to ask, if they got it all on tape, why do they need anything else? why do they need john travolta or anybody else to testify? it's on tape, caught. >> we're not sure exactly what was on tape and how it was taped. whenever there's a tape recording or video tape, the legal issues are simple. you can't deny what's happening but what you can question is whether or not it
