Inmate Michael Fulcher may finally get to tell his story to a jury.

Today - all three were granted new trials.

[VO-NAT]
[SUPER=03-Roanoke/December 1999]
It all comes down to the word of Drug Enforcement Agent Don Lincoln.
Though Lincoln HAD said he specifically told Fulcher there wasn't enough marijuana involved to justify a federal investigation, Lincoln changed his tune after Fulcher was convicted.
Lincoln wrote the judge, saying he may have led Fulcher to believe he wanted the inmate's help.
Prosecutors then turned on their own agent, suggesting the Fulchers must "have something" on Lincoln, and that they blackmailed him into recanting.
Judge Jackson Kiser says: Lincoln "stuck his neck out" by writing the letter, saying it "enhances Lincoln's credibility."

It's the video of the day... coming from a marine mammal reserve on the La Jolla (hoy-a) coast where a seal was born today.
Workers at the reserve have been waiting for the seal pup's arrival.
It's the first newborn seal to survive at the reserve this year.
They don't know what gender it is yet... but they're calling it Valentine.
