Geraldo Rivera's brother Craig was arrested on a DUI in Walnut Creek. Craig Rivera was working with Mark Furhman on a story for his brother's new show, about the Pamela Vitale murder (of course). A jury sentenced Marques Lott to life in prison for the killing of a college student right outside the Rockridge BART station in 1997. The victim, Lisa Smith, was an English major at St. Mary's who was taking Chinese classes at Berkeley over the summer.

In the interview, she not only discussed their affair, but also said that Barry was using steroids as far back as 1999. The alleged mistress, Kimberly Bell, was on Geraldo because she’s been trying to peddle a book for years about the affair which supposedly lasted for nine years and ended with Barry offering a mere $20,000 in hush money.
