The murder case of Pastor Lucas does not go back before the courts until September. When disclosure does come the prosecution will use surveillance video to try and establish their guilt. As we told you, cameras as Mason's home allegedly captured the five of them taking away Pastor Lu and two others. We're told that there's additional surveillance video from Mason's ranch where men are seen carting away the headless body to be burnt. Today we asked Security Minister Saldivar - who was familiar with Mason and his home - if he has seen the video - or any other security video of interest emerging from the home:

"How do we ensure that that surveillance footage does not go missing?"
Hon. John Saldivar, Minister of National Security
"I am sure that it will not go missing."
Emanuel Pech
"Have you been made privy to that footage?"
Hon. John Saldivar, Minister of National Security
"I do not interfere with any evidence that the police is working on. I think that would not be my place to do so, but I believe that the appropriate persons will be if they haven't already been given copies of the footage, including the DPP I hope if she has not yet received it will certainly receive it in the due course."
Emanuel Pech
"But you have visited. Might you not have been caught on the footage and if so, that would be in your interest to view it."
Hon. John Saldivar, Minister of National Security
"I would not have been caught on the footage, because is suggesting that I may have been doing something wrong. If I am on the footage, it's all honest footage. There is nothing that can be on any of those footage that would suggest that I did anything wrong while I visited with Mr. Mason and I continue to say that and unless you can find that footage that shows me doing something wrong, I would appreciate if we stop circulating that there is something wrong that I may have done."
