i want to rewind about 2 and a half years since supervisor cowen talked about this. it was late in the summer about 2011 i went out to visit with mother brown's kitchen and what i noticed when - was simply not acceptable. really not acceptable from a view of humiliate. i saw 70 or 80 chairs in an upper crowded space with no ventilation. i saw homeless individuals with their heads down in the cafe because they had no place to rest. i asked about the chairs and i was told folks sleep upright in those chairs. it's not what it was designed to do. the architecture work was not designed for sleeping but those folks had no alternative. i walked next door and noticed a vacant warehouse. the owner is the same owner who owns the drop center. i said there's money coming in 3 months let's make this a shelter. this was probable july or august of naivete. the application was did you august 2012. so i made the decision to move forward and recognizing there's no time we had to put together the grant and the cost estimates would it would do to rehab it. sometimes humanity has to trum

here with me now for more on this case paul cowen and criminal defense attorney heather. let's start with the idea of mike pouncey getting a subpoena after a dolphins football game and wondering, oh, dear god, my former roommate is in a lot of trouble and now perhaps i am, too. sunny just said you don't subpoena people at the center typically of an investigation like that. is this a squeeze job? >> you generally don't. you're probably looking at him as a material witness. he went to the university of florida with hernandez. they had been associated for a long time, and this gun running investigation has a lot of links back to florida. and the university of florida. so it doesn't surprise me that his former college fellow players might somehow be brought into the investigation. >> and heather, what do you think about the notion that at a time when aaron hernandez has to aggressively defend himself against a murder charge and another investigation of other crimes that's ongoing, as well, do you even bother at this point with the gun running or do you just wait that out and

a lot of people caution going into the holidays, pay attention to what happened, for example, cowen this morning when you talk about oil prices, taking the forecast down $10. i think going to something like 90 by thee end. between that and what the government is doing at the ethanol front, you could see prices coming down at the pump significantly and they have and that could be a big offset people people this time of year. >> it could be. i still wonder about the effects of the shut down. i don't encounter it that much in my daily life. there are people who have not been working. i guess they'll get their back pay, that's been voted through. perhaps there won't be an effect on consumer spending. maybe it's going on now. let's check in with bob pisani. >> we are slowly groping toward a deal on the debt ceiling. it's not sure whether that will include reopening of the government or not. we talked about this yesterday, the reason for the rally because they knew it was debt ceiling and the biggest risk in the market is on the debt ceiling. we'll have a talk with the president and senate rep
