Geraldo Rivera: Hi everybody, I'm Geraldo Rivera and welcome to this special edition of Rivera Live. Well, arguments in the Good Samaritan trial ended today. The jury has been in deliberation for four and a half hours now. Let's go live to Jane Wells who is in Latham, Massachusetts, covering this trial for us. Jane.
Jane Wells: Geraldo, just a few minutes ago, the jury asked to see the video tape.
Geraldo Rivera: That's the one where they are overheard making sarcastic remarks during the robbery.
Jane Wells: Yes, it's a very incriminating piece of evidence. But I must tell you, Geraldo, this courtroom and everyone who has attended this trial is still reeling from the endless parade of witness who have come forth so enthusiastically to testify against these four seemingly ordinary people. One even had the feeling that if Judge Vandelay didn't finally put a stop to it, it could've gone on for months.
Geraldo Rivera: Jane, whose testimony do you think resonated most strongly with this jury?
Jane Wells: That is so hard to say. Certainly, there's the doctor with the poison invitations. The Bubble Boy was an extremely sympathetic and tragic figure. And that bizarre contest certainly didn't sit well with this small-town jury.There's the woman they sold the defective wheelchair to. The deported Pakistani restaurateur. Geraldo, it just went on, and on, and on, into the night.
Geraldo Rivera: And so we wait.
