Ingmar Guandique has been found guilty of both counts in this case. That would be, the important one here is first-degree murder.


This jury has had a tough time with this case. They've been out since Wednesday. They deliberated through the weekend. And it's not easy. It's a circumstantial case. It's based on a jailhouse confession 1 in part, which is notoriously unreliable form of evidence. It's based in its most powerful part on the fact that these defendants 2 attacked two women in almost the same place in almost the same way that Chandra Levy 3 was attacked. But there's no eyewitness 4. There's no DNA 5 evidence. And juries have hard times with cases like that.


We're always looking at ways that we can evolve our technology and our protocols 6 for how we go about doing this. In the short-term, there will not be any changes, but what I'm looking at is how can we best use the information we have, both the intelligence from overseas such as what we saw this weekend from Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula about how they design and conceal 7 the toner cartridge 8 bombs in cargo 9 flights out of Yemen that coupled with the thoroughness that we believe is appropriate.


When he got to my chest area, he used his open palm and started going down my chest quite hard. And I knew that if he got down near where my urostomy bag was, there was a possibility of pulling the seal off it. And I said at that point, you need to go slower and you need to go softer or you're going to pull my urostomy bag off. And he said, what's that? And I said it doesn't matter, just go softer. And low on behold 10, he got down to where the urostomy bag was. I happened to have one of the bags here to show you and pulled the seal kind of half off it. And once that happened, it was kind of like pulling the seal off, half off a bottle of orange juice and tipping it upside-down. The urine started coming out of my bag and onto my shirt and down my pants.


Emergency crews have rescued 29 miners who spent more than 30 hours not knowing whether they were gonna lived. This is the first rescued miner shown on China State TV this morning. He and the others got stuck when the mine was flooded. It took rescuers less than an hour to pull them out and a huge crowd clapped when the last miner came out.
