What you look at the two most recent request from the jury most recently just before they recess.

Yesterday they requested to -- from Alex torture he's the estate lawyer.

For heiress Rachel bunny Mellon.

In one letter from July 2006.

-- -- rights to Edwards campaign aide Andrew Young about an advocacy group.

Torture -- to promote.

Religious freedom -- whites in that letter I thought the senator might be interested in the work we are doing for election purposes in another letter from October 2006.

Forced her rights to Bonnie Mellon herself about a meeting that he had with John Edwards to discuss a one million dollar gift.

That Mellon had pledged to the politicians' anti poverty organization the center for promise and opportunity for sure right.

He said that he would like to consider how to allocate the million and -- now said he would like.

650000.

Dollars to go to a center now and hold off sending the balance to a later date when he decides where he would like it directed.

Of course up bunny Mellon ended up up funding much of the money that the prosecution alleges.

Was used to keep Edwards pregnant mistress in hiding.

During his 2008 run for president it's unclear whether they're looking for something specific in these two letters.

Or whether it's part of the trail to give them sort of a general sense of the financial and personal relationship that was developing between.

Bunny Mellon and John Edwards.

The evidence jurors requested on the previous two days of deliberations.

Also related to the so called bunny money but whether that will remain a focus of their discussions and deliberations.

Only the jury knows.
