so before willingham was executed this evidence that you're showing came before the pardon and parole board or whatever it's called texas and governor perry and they basically blew it off why how in fact how did they get away with. the documents from the attorneys that consulted with the governor still confidential houston chronicle it's the governor's office to disclose those documents he actually disclosed the documents that governor bush used and his comments he petitions and so that's all public knowledge of the perry governor's office so i haven't disclosed it so we don't know exactly the level of scrutiny that he had so we had an opportunity to look this over to not know it but i believe that perry's office was raised to be only one who had a chance to look at it and this is this is really remarkable how what has rick perry done to keep this case under wraps in texas there was a stand with the forensic science commission professionals to look at problems of labor for years and for insect evidence and one of the first complaints brought to them was the war and kids and they commi

perry's new chairman sidelined the willingham investigation. this week's texas's republican attorney general told the same commission it is not allowed to issue any official conclusion on the evidence in the cameron willingham case. it could investigate the gathering and processing of forensic evidence in other arson cases but not in the cameron willingham case. whatever you think about the death penalty, whatever your position is on the issue and whatever cases like cameron willingham say to you about our ethics and our governance, the broader fact is this issue entered the national discussion because it's an applause line. hypothetically, if the texas forensics commission was about to announce conclusive proof rick perry in texas did execute an actually innocent man, does anyone believe that would hurt him with this year's republican voters? >> stand by this that we need to have a fed that is working toward sound monetary policy u , but thieves can steal your identity. turning your life upside down in a matter of seconds. hi. hi. you know i c

the other surprising thing she tried to use against rick perry is the case of cameron todd willingham, executed by the state of texas in 2004 despite a lot of rather troubling flaws and the evidence used to convict him. despite until the very end he said he was innocent of the crimes for which he was convicted. kay bailey hutchison is a supporter of the death penalty. she raised in her campaign against rick perry, though, the fact perry had intervened in a panel looking into the evidence against cameron todd willingham. hutchison in messing with that panel rick perry both made a mistake and was, quote, trying to ramrod a covering up. this was not in the general election. this is not rick perry running against a democrat or running against somebody who is anti-death penalty. this was a race of two vehemently pro-death penalty republican candidates in texas. which made it a surprising choice for the kay bailey hutchison campaign that they would go after him on the case of cameron todd willingham and whether or not he should have been executed. neither of those surprising choices worked

cameron todd willingham i think that was an area. i don't i it's almost like there's a conspiracy of silence and it's quite remarkable here's ron paul was asked the question by c.n.n. you know what if a guy is dying he's in a coma he's thirty years old he's uninsured what do you do. this why did you have to. thank you. are you saying society should just let him die. you know. yeah just let him die it's comically bad the way these people react on this stuff and yeah i you know i again i think that the impulse there is you know. conservatism is a lot about you know if somebody gets something they always feel it's at their own expense you know they don't see the we you know society that takes care of itself the way you know we sort of ernie's benefits you know we we earn you know a certain safety net because. you know the companies that are can flourish in our system you know if they don't provide health care you know the seating that steps in and helps people out. but the thing that blows my mind is i mean you think back to like the si

ever been asked that question on the campaign trail about cameron todd willingham i think that was an area where i don't know it's almost like there's a conspiracy of silence and it's quite remarkable here's ron paul was asked the question by c.n.n. you know what if a guy is dying he's in a calm he's thirty years old he's uninsured what do you do. this why do you think you have to. thank you. are you saying society should just let him die. yeah just let it die it's comically bad the way these people react on this stuff and yeah i you know i again i think that the impulse there is you know. conservatism is a lot about you know if somebody gets something they always feel it's at their own expense you know they don't see the way you know a society that takes care of itself that we you know we sort of ernie's benefits you know we we earn you know a certain safety net because you know the companies that are can flourish in our system you know if they don't provide health care you know the seating that steps in and helps people out. but the thing that blows my mind is that i mean you think

willingham leads the a's in home runs. those are both career highs. now speaking of money ball, it opens around these parts nationwide on friday. at the premiere last evening billy been picked his spot. he was on espn. it generates more than $370,000. the gala with brad pitt $370,000 for the children's hospital and research center and stand up to cancer. again, cannot say enough about dan kerman with brad pitt. of is the raising the money was great to see our dan kerman, we normally only see him out in the wind blowing but to see him break into show biz, the only reason i am laughing, and he did a couple of questions and then kept moving. he was nice, but like said he kept him moving through the line. you probably have never what the red carpet. but i was there for the isabel red carpet in the kept us moving through the whole thing. actually i was there when no carpet was a linoleum floor but the point is, for some reason he stood and talked to dan for more than the normal time so that was just terrific. now the stanford football is no. 5 in america.

it came to the case of going edward brooke we told you about yesterday or the case of cameron todd willingham who also could have been innocent but has been executed now there are hundreds of cases like this and expose the reliance on that testimony in our court systems they expose a racial injustice and we do what we can with our resources to bring them to you to shine a light on that injustice to try and make it so that it's not only a week before an execution has said take place that americans hear about people like you or davis but the mainstream media the cable channels that have massive budgets affiliates all across the country that have resources to actually investigate what they choose to pass they'd rather bring on a gas and talk about celebrity gossip executions especially executions where there is no way for certain to tell the convicted is guilty now that they'd rather miss. well today we have yet another unfortunate anniversary you could call it the third birthday of the financial crisis that's right three years ago today lehman brothers filed for bankruptcy sending markets tumbl

republicans that's right and yet governor perry himself is very likely executed an innocent man todd willingham who is case was was totally shredded by by his own actually forensic board that looking at it so this this idea that somehow we can get the death penalty right whether it's in texas or florida or in georgia words or choice davis is is a complete complete sham and the idea that somehow that this was justice that somehow was going on in georgia is amounts to justice as i was also a sham it's not justice it's a travesty and i know your organization has looked at a lot of these cases over history and now in this one we have our basic doesn't doesn't teach it we have former president jimmy carter more than fifty members of congress lending their names to a campaign that they are calling too much doubt these are some heavy hitters some big names what will it take for things to change for this execution to be stopped. well and things keep popping in choice favor just today the senate whip the leader of the democratic party in the senate uncalled for actual resistance among the correction sta

cruising and a's and angels, josh willingham left the building going deeper, number 26 on the year. a's up in the third that is all they get. there is a two iron on a line, out in a hurry. and there is a win two, out of three in that arz. -- series. cowboys in a renewal of one of the best rivalries, ever. mike shumann looks back at current players. now most were not alive for catch in 1982. one of the most storied rivalries, there is this catch propelling 49ers on to the first super bowl title. there is a vague memory. >> the probably spent about 15 seconds thinking about that. >> most of the current 49ers have no memory but it has the feel of a big game. >> i feel like it's a monday night game. and everybody loves dallas cowboys. it's going to be a good one. and this is just the way they're playing a game. >> one 49er had the guts to admit his favorite team. >> now, 49ers is what i believe. >> i remember it well. as i had misfortune of making the first catch in the nfc title game. not the last. in santa clara, abc 7 sports. >> and i was like it's going to be 30 years. >> and that i

about it he feels completely comfortable putting inmates to death even in the case of cameron todd willingham where there's ample evidence of perry executed an innocent man now the state executing another man just a few days ago execution would bring the state's record to two hundred and thirty six deaths that's a statistic that is completely mind boggling and according to lubbock avalanche journal a newspaper based in lubbock texas the average cost of indictments and execution alone adds up to one point two million dollars per person sometimes on trial for these cases are over two hundred thousand dollars so it's a lot of newspapers reported it's far more cost effective and safe to instill a life in prison punishment than it's the death penalty but in fact this looks like rick perry just doesn't play that way. something about the revolving door corruption cronyism whatever you want to call it it's rampant in our political culture these days and so we have another piece of evidence to prove it according to a study conducted by legist arm nearly five thousand four hundred former congressional
