fran townsend served as homeland security adviser to president george w. bush. s e is now our cbs news senior security analyst. fran, so much to wrap our heads around here. ndat stands out to you right now about this investigation and arrest? >> jeff, this was classic police work, right. you've got the fingerprint, the d.n.a., they used the cell phone technology to locate him. but let's remember, without the forensics, if this guy did not a cri criminal-- prior criminal record, we wouldn't have had his fingerprints and we wouldn't have had his d.n.a. those things-- the fingerprint and d.n.a.-- on file, is the key he khem cracking this case and r.resting cesar. so we're very fortunate that this guy had a prior criminal record. if he didn't, that fingerprint and the d.n.a. wouldn't have been as useful in actually focusing in and getting to him. tt glor: what about his profile, lian, his political beliefs? being alone, it would appear tanstantly, the blatant van that ri was driving around florida, what do you make of all that? >> you know, it reminds me very much,

fran townsend once served as homeland security adviser to president george w. bush.s now our senior security analyst. fran, explain why at this point the f.b.i. would not have potentially talked to christine blasey ford. >> well, it would make perfect investigative sense, jeff. ul you waited to the end, you would want to interview a bunch of witnesses. you want to see if you gather additional information, then you would interview dr. ford, judge ivanaugh, and use any additional information you might ive gleaned. it's inconceivable to me you would complete this phase of the background and not talk to them ew all because, after all, the f.b.i. has never interviewed dr. ford. both dr. ford and judge kavanaugh gave very detailed testimony before the senate 'sdiciary committee but that's quite different than sitting down with the f.b.i. >> glor: and can you wrap up a background investigation in a week's time? >> this is very limited. this is not a full and complete background investigation, which for judge kavanaugh probably took several weeks. this is very limited to the

supervisor brown, arnold townsend. just wanted to rise to support this legislation and just say how impressed i am with the creativity of the opposition to this project. it's just amazing to me that many of the very people who came in and gentrified your community have now decided that they -- they're not going to have anymore poor and working people in the community because it's not good enough for us. that the housing and the project says that's proposed is not enough for us so the way to solve that problem is to encourage an affordability level that will assure that the project will not be built and consequently no more people will come. we should ignore such foolishness and approve this project, approve it quickly and use it as a model for getting other housing built in this community. thank you so much. thank youly and use it as a model for getting other housing built in this community. thank you. >> good afternoon. certainly this item, if it illustrates nothing else, it illustrates the limitations of inclusionary
