SEAN HANNITY (HOST): If I'm on a jury, and I'm listening to the defense ask, “Now, did you cut a deal with those guys over there? So, did they threaten to put you in jail? Did they say you are not going to go to jail if you do this?” -- I'm dismissing that person, because I don't believe you, if you cut a deal to get out of jail, you are going to be honest. You are basically bribed and paid. True or false? True or false?

JEANINE PIRRO: If you were going to do that, yes, but if you have people sitting on a jury, and the prosecutor already has them --

HANNITY: Aren't they bribing the witnesses? Yes, or no?

PIRRO: Yes, or no -- Yes, I agree.

HANNITY: They are bribing the witnesses.
