5:00 am
control column and initiated this nosedive they lost well over 10,000 feet very quickly. and can i just say this, sarah, if you're on a plane and you're in your seat please. please keep your seat buckled the buckle, your seat belt. use what i'm trying to say. >> yeah. it's a real reminder. i mean, because a lot of things some people get up and they go to the bathroom. and so those folks probably ended up on the ceiling. but it is a really good reminder to keep your seat belt on when you are seated on a flight because you just never know with all the turbulence. and then you have this issue. we heard from a passenger who said that when they ask the pilot would happen as they were leaving, that he said that the controls just went blank is that something that could happen with this when you are pushed into the control panel >> investigators, i've talked to don't know what to make of that one, and i don't think that is being actively pursued
5:01 am
as a top issue potentially in all this might have been something that guide i kinda got put through the rumor mill wake of something like this. so we'll see i find that particular issue that the black cutting of the entire panel as related to this to be hard to figure out. so i'm going to put that in the category of a kind of a bank at piece of data that came out in the wake of this mild view showed us that we have this picture next to you showing how it works with the seat going forward. it seems like it's going slow there it is. it seems like it's going quite slow, but you're saying he was turned sideways trying to get trying to get the meal and his legs are crossing so he then gets pushed into it. i mean, it's fascinating to see what little can happen to cause a plane to nosedive. so again, seat belts always, that's what i learned from this. right? >> absolutely. now, in the past there have been situations
5:02 am
where drinks have spilled on console shutting down engines cameras have gotten stuck in seats causing nose dives as well. i think we can safely say when you're in a flight deck in a cockpit, you should move rather gingerly. there's a lot of buttons there and you just don't know which one might cause trouble. you know, that kind of, hey, watch this. that's a bad idea. >> miles o'brien, it's always a pleasure to see you. thank you. the next hour, a cnn news central starts right now >> deadly tornadoes in the midwest ripping through parts of indiana and ohio, at least two people have been killed, dozens hurt and rescue crews are searching for survivors right now and attack in gaza, the hamas-run palestinian health ministry claims 20 people were killed waiting for food we are standing by for a

5:05 am
this is a traverse, a midsize suv. the windows are almost completely blown out except for the windshield just from the sheer force of this storm, so much debris landing basically direct directly on that car and then let me show you something else here. this is a backed security door. this is a heavy metal door. i'm lifting as hard as i can and i can barely move it a centimeter. that is how powerful this storm has been. and then finally, i'll take you over here and you see this this larger suv with a wood pole, just shot right through the windshield. this debris and this damage spreads across the street here at winchester will take a look over here as well, where you can see the length of the damage here. and then we'll go to the master cam, which is a camera we have on our live truck. and it's really sara from the air where you can see the sheer scope of the damage. it goes on for blocks here, again, 38 people injured here.

5:08 am
we're going to have to completely collapse that we're going to have to have some heavy equipment to remove the debris just so that we can conduct a search. >> and as i said, it is now just getting light there. what are you seeing in terms of damage >> i can best describe it as a bomb going off >> and i >> the damage i saw from last night. so as daylight now is here, we're going to be able to appreciate the damage much more, but unbelievable damage. i guess i can't describe it any more than just like an explosion >> what's the biggest need this morning >> right now, we are teaming together you go into more detailed serves, like you said, we're bringing cadaver dogs in. >> we're going to >> team up in teams. we've already searched a lot of areas, but we need to go back in and so we're going to team up with a cadaver, dogs fire and ems and law enforcement.

5:15 am
sunday on cnn any moment we are expecting a monumental ruling in georgia from edge over thing, donald trump's election subversion case and that state the big question >> is, will he disqualify fulton county da fani willis over financial misconduct, allegation. the judge says he expects the answer to that question should come today. and he promised politics will not be a factor in his decision with me now to discuss cnn, senior legal analyst, elie honig and for manhattan prosecutor jeremy saland. thank you, gentlemen, for being here. ali, i'm starting with you. if da fani willis is disqualified from this case in georgia is the case essentially over it's pretty close to that. if she is disqualified big f, we'll find out in a moment. here's what happens if she is disqualified under georgia law because she's the da the office essentially is her. it all acts under her authority. so the entire case would then be sent to this independent body of prosecutors. they would have to decide what to do it the case
5:16 am
they could just let it die on the vine. they could reassign and it to another county in georgia. >> but the >> problem is that's going to take a long time and we know that because fani willis was disqualified off of a piece of this case, a couple of years ago where she had a political conflict of interests. that piece of the case is still sitting with that independent committee two years later so the entire office cannot try the case if like you can go to some other attorney indicate right. so if she is not disqualified, this just go ahead as planned. like nothing happened. it can go ahead as planned. also, the judge could say we want some oversight. can be referred because potential ethical violations to the georgia bar. so it can go forward and go forward in the regular taylor trajectory because she will still be in control, she will still run that case. but there's certainly going to be a sideshow. it's certainly going to be something that donald trump and we'll call it the trump co-defendants will seize on and push this witch hunt narrative and no matter where it goes for him, it's kind of a win because look at even the judge didn't hear it the law
5:17 am
the judges allowing this to happen. alternatively, if he does win and she's off the case and has ellie said, it it works really well for him, for him public relation win, even if it's illegal. >> i think so. yeah. >> le what are the what is the >> main legal question that needs to be answered by the judge here to make his decision. >> there's so much drama right here's what it really comes down to. first of all, the judge has to decide is he going to use an appearance of a conflict standard which is much lower? could the public reasonably perceive there to be some conflict or the higher tougher standard, which is an actual conflict of interest if he uses the higher standard, the defendants trump in the other co-defendants have the burden. they have to show that there's some financial conflict of interests, but i want to make this point is really important that you do not have to demonstrate that this was some grand scheme by fani willis and she'd only brought this case because she was hoping to get a couple thousand bucks per vacation, even if she's getting some sort of incidental it's so financial benefit or unintended
5:18 am
financial benefit that can be enough. >> i want to go to just remind people of fani willis who took the stand in this case. this is her on the stand defiantly responding to a question you've been intrusive into people's personal lives. you'll confused, you think i'm on trial. these people are on trial for trying to steal an election in 2020. i'm not on trial no matter how hard you try to put me on trial. >> jeremy isn't she on trial though? i mean, in this case, it's not a criminal case, but they are looking into whether or not she can perform her duties and she had to have a little bit of a performance there as well for the cameras. and she's certainly fighting for her political life and she's fighting for her life in terms of this criminal case. so when you use the term trial, i mean, she's not literally on trial like the trump defendants but she's no doubt the subject of this investigation internally, when now before a judge to say is there a conflict actual or is it the appearance in either way, what
5:19 am
happens next to this case? so it's a trial in the figurative sense. but it's a trial also for her personal. >> all right. i want to ask you i want to go to another soundbite where she is out. the case is going on. she goes to a congregation and she speaks with the congregation about the case. here's what she said. >> hi, one white me broome matter and gray going and one black man >> another superstar a great friend and i'm grief. first thing they say oh, she played a rings far. now >> all right. could what she said here, since it's happening while the judge at the case is going on, could what she said outside of the court and what she said here play a role in the judge's decision. i think it's a real issue. i think those comments were wildly inappropriate. they violate any prosecutorial ethics. if you look at the georgia code, it says, no prosecutor should ever
5:20 am
make a public statement that might inflame or influence a potential jury pool. so here she is, obviously outside of court the defendants have just filed the motion right. that led to all this, and they've said that her hiring of nathan wade is sort of caught up in the conflict of interest and she makes those statements in a church with the cameras rolling and her defenses. i wasn't talking about the defendants. they i was talking about marjorie taylor greene, which is a tough one to accept. i mean, look, every single media organization, including cnn and every i think sane thinking person saw that and said it's obvious she means dance. no one thought it meant marjorie taylor greene, i actually think in some ways that's a cleaner case for disqualification. then all this financial stuff jeremy, you're shaking your head. >> i'm an agreement and i think that a fuel prosecutors can take a lesson from jack smith and that means both special prosecutors and state prosecutors stick to the four corners of your indictments, stick to the four corners of your case, stick to the four
5:21 am
corners of the courtroom. this is not a spectacle to before the tv because you lose people, you lose potential people who are going to be on that jury and you lose trust in the public and our public lose that trust. so i completely agree this this shouldn't have happened and, you know, is it a greatness? i don't know, but it's certainly significant. >> sunlen, judge, could look at elie honig. thank you so much. jeremy saland, you as well? so civilians >> in gaza killed while waiting for food and now conflicting reports this morning on what what happened and who is to blame? people in russia, they're voting right now in russia. but this event is merely a formality, as vladimir putin looks to secure a fifth term. >> in power >> what happened to the golden boy of new jersey governor jim aggrieved. >> i engaged in an adult's consensual well affair with another man. he was shocking. was it an instant attraction? >> yeah greed, these top fundraiser under investigation, he put it lover, want to stay payroll or reasons?

5:27 am
>> well there's no doubt that a distribution has been a major challenge in northern gaza because of the desperation of people, but also because we've seen a number of deadly incidents surrounding this aid distribution. and this is certainly among the most tragic that we have seen so far. the palestinian ministry of health saying that 20 people were killed and 100 britain 55 wounded they say that this attack was carried out by the israeli military. they blame israeli shelling for the death toll here, but israel is denying having targeted this aid distribution point in northern gaza. they say instead that it was palestinian gunmen who opened fire on this aid point about an hour before an aid convoy was set to roll through. they said that the gunfire continued as that convoy arrived and as crowds of desperate people began looting those trucks, they also say that they carried out an initial review that showed that no israeli tank fire airstrikes or gunfire were carried out there. but the palestinian ministry three of health, as
5:28 am
well as eyewitnesses on the ground show tell a very different story of people on the ground tell us that they heard what sounded like tank or artillery shelling and certainly the images on the ground of the destruction indicates something far more serious, far more deadly than simply gunfire with rubble all around dusk covering bodies, pools of blood, and many people obviously killed and wounded in this attack. what is clear though, is that all of this is amplified and made worse by the desperate humanitarian situation. particularly in northern gaza. and as we look for some kind of relief for that humanitarian situation, the entry of much, much more aid which could only be provided by a temporary ceasefire. we are now getting indications that things are trending, at least in a positive direction with hamas apparently submitting a latest counterproposal that has at least one us official cautiously optimistic these really war cabinet were told sarah is set to review that latest proposal today. >> for so many the ceasefire

5:34 am
faced identical verdicts. james crumbley convicted just last night. here's the oakland county prosecutor who led the case. >> these parents could have prevented this tragedy. there was foreseeable with just the smallest of efforts they could have prevented this shooting and saved these kids lives and protected the hundreds of kids in the school that day and all of the members of the oxford community that it devastated joining me right now, is defense attorney misty marris for much more on this? >> misty, >> what did you think of this verdict >> i wasn't >> surprised by the verdict at all. there's a set of facts that's undisputed in this case that came out in jennifer crumbley's trial, that was also center in james crumbley file. no matter what you think about anything else, that meeting at the school where a drawing is shown and the drawing includes a picture of a gun and it says
5:35 am
the thoughts won't stop. that alone. i think was enough to overcome some of the defense arguments about whether or not this was foreseeable. and look, there were very, very good arguments from that perspective, especially since the school did not say that ethan had to be removed. they let him go back to class. however, it was the parents who knew that there was a gun in the home, so they had all the facts and they failed to act. and i truly think that that particular interaction is the reason why we saw convictions in both of these cases. >> adding it all together, the conviction of both parents. now, one month apart. >> i i've >> seen some analysis kind of broadly that this case and the verdicts as prosecutor as prosecutors really finding a successful playbook to hold parents responsible for enabling deadly violence, meaning this could be used elsewhere. i've also seen people describe this as unique
5:36 am
though, given the evidence of how the parents allegedly acted how broad are limited, do you think the impact of these verdicts will be >> so i think both analysis both are true. and let me explain what that so yes, this opens up a legal theory that prosecutors can now use to hold parents accountable for the actions since of their kids that being said, it's going to be a fact specific case. it's not going to be every case. it's going to be cases where facts show that there was a foreseeable risks. so yes, it will not be anything and everything out there. there's not going to be a wave of prosecutions relating to children's actions and parents accountability. however it is going to be certain factual scenarios that are now going to be. there's going to be a legal theory to prosecute and i think a lot of those are going to
5:37 am
relate to the maintenance and safety protocols with storing guns when there's children in the home, this case was unique in the sense that this particular state at the time did not have storage laws. it didn't require a gun owner to lock of the gun and have it in a safe and have a code on that safe or even keep a trigger lock on the gun. all arguments that were raised by the defense. but this case if even overcame that hurdle to say, if there's a foreseeable risk, there's a child in the home, there's a gun that's accessible. you can be held accountable. so it's a broad ruling, but it will be a narrow set of cases that fit the factual circumstances the parents the parents were are speaking out after this verdict, we heard from the district we heard from the lead >> prosecutor there and the parents of the children who were killed in a school shooter, they have suggested that they want to go after the school now, as well, saying that they need to start focusing on the school and the schools failures. what do you
5:38 am
think that looks like >> so there's a whole host of civil lawsuits that are pending relating to the school, and their failures in this case and the failures were significant and that came out on the stand in the criminal trial. in fact, it it was essential to the defense of both jennifer and james crumbley. that's that this meeting. this meeting that is held both parents criminally accountable. the school also failed to take significant action. they didn't search ethan's backpack. they didn't escalate this. they didn't take him out of the classroom. what it came out was they didn't it's a band that ethan was taken home. they suggested that that was an option, so all of that together creates a liability problem for the school with that said, and this is where these civil litigations are coming there are rules relating to immunity when it comes to entities like government entities like public schools. and so there's the legal hurdles to overcome gross
5:39 am
negligence has to be shown. but this could certainly open up the door. the facts here, especially now what's under oath, could certainly lead to some civil accountability for the school >> sentencing for the crumbleys, april 9, watch that and continue to follow it >> it's great to see you, misty. thank you. sarah >> baby, that's what a california family is asking after deputy shot and killed ryan gainer, a 15-year-old boy with autism. gainer's family called 911 last week saying they needed help because ryan was having mental health issues and beginning to assault relatives, deputy say when they arrived, he was holding a gardening tool and threaten them. and that is when they opened fire, ryan's family says they expected deputies to help, not kill the teenager. cnn's camila bernal has the story seven seconds

>> that's how long >> authorities say they >> had before shooting a teenager with autism deputies were. called to 15 year-old ryan gainer's home in apple valley, california on march 9th at assault and battery, when the deputies arrived, ryan had what authorities described as a five-foot-long garden tool with a sharp bladed end. and as seen on bodycam video, which was blurred by the sheriff's department he appears to be chasing the deputy. >> we pay law enforcement officers to stop threats and to stop violence. the deputy hadn't even made it into that house to be able to investigate the claims that are made of assault. was somebody injured, but the family attorney, dewitt lacy says it's about the initial approach and cows for you, it gives direction that when you're encountering somebody with mental disabilities or impairments in the field that you sit in present >> as a threat that you don't come up and show that you want to arrest somebody or present with guns or sirens and
5:41 am
flashing noises, things that could upset a frustrate somebody who is experiencing some type of mental health issue. >> this was not the first time deputies were called to the home in five previous encounters with police this year deputies had been able to help. >> well, we need to really look at is even if we had the best of health care, the best psychologist in that immediate interaction, and that seven seconds, there are no magic words. >> lacy says the family believed calling authorities was their only available option. >> they thought of police as a resource that has been helpful in the past. they believed because of their past experiences that calling them on this occasion may result in the same type of helpfulness, >> but in this last encounter, ryan was shot three times and despite aid from deputies, he later died at the hospital while the family doesn't meant to difficult times with ryan.
5:42 am
he's described as a gift, a blessing, and a source of pride. >> he sought everybody. >> the family is now asking for accountability. >> maybe the officers aren't the people that we should be calling, or maybe there are other folks that we should be calling. but as of right now, they are the people that are charged with this responsibility. and we've got to hold them accountable for it. >> you heard the attorney talking about holding them accountable. what do that look like to the family at this point >> that's the one thing i asked the attorney, sarah, and what he said is that he doesn't necessarily need these deputies to be fired, but he did say maybe they're reassigned because in his view, these deputies did not respond correctly when it came to dealing with someone with autism. and in california, they are all trained to deal with people with mental illnesses. the sheriff's department did confirm that these two or the officers that responded were trained when it comes to dealing with someone with autism, the question here is whether or not these officers knew that this teenager was it too sick and also, did they
5:43 am
know oh, or had they been to this home before? those are things that the sheriff's department has not answered yet. and of course, we're still pressing them for clarity. >> sarah camila bernal, a hard story all the way around. thank you so much for bringing that to us. appreciate it. john >> happening now, voting is underway across russia in an election where president vladimir putin his victory is hardly a question. >> this morning of the >> european council, president mocked the elections fairness, preemptively congratulating putin on his quote landslide victory with me now is evelyn fork is former deputy assistant secretary of defense for russia and ukraine, and i have to say the tone of that tweet from the european council president was just deeply mocking and it's in that tone that i asked you. how are you celebrating the russian election today >> well, i think it's actually a sad day, john. the election will be over on sunday for the first time. they're actually having three days of elections. i think it's actually so that they can exercise more control over them but i'm glad that
5:44 am
the europeans finally are admitting publicly that putin is frankly an illegitimate democrat only in quotation marks what does vladimir putin fear this morning, i asked that because it does seem that a lot has gone his way. any is exercise a great deal of power over the last several months with near impunity yeah, i mean, he's afraid of losing control over the system. i think we have to remember that last summer was when the mercenary leader of the wagner group, you yevgeny prigozhin marched on moscow. and that was really a wake-up call for vladimir putin. does, that he was not in control and ever since then, he's been clamping down even more on demonstrators. we know that he killed alexey navalny, whether he intended it on the day that he died four weeks ago or not, you know, he's been systematically eliminating the real liberal opposition. he
5:45 am
also eliminated two people who were originally government sanctioned opposition to him in the elections. he eliminated them because they adopted anti-war platforms. he's worried about his legitimacy, so it doesn't matter in russia, you know, exactly how many votes you get everybody knows that it's not really free and fair. but if he gets below a certain threshold or if too many people come out to protests and there is one protest possibility on sunday because navalny told the russians to go to the polls at noon. if russians all over russia go to the polls at noon, that will be kind of a finger in the face of vladimir putin and evidence that he's not that popular after all. and that hits it as legitimacy. he wants to be viewed as the gentleman by you, by the international community and by the russian people >> is he winning? i'm not asking you about the >> election exactly. i'm asking you about his greater ambitions that is always a hard question to answer in a system like this where it's really
5:46 am
under control, it's basically an >> authoritarian system. i would argue he isn't because russia lost more people than they lost in a longer war in afghanistan. so they've lost hundreds of thousands of russian menn about, i think close to 1 million russians fled because they didn't want to be thrown into the war in ukraine, the war is unpopular, we know because one of these opposition politicians who was disqualified later got over 100,000 signatures, essentially protein test votes, because that was his platform. the russian government though is clamping down even more on internet. that's the one place where russians have been able to get information from the outside world. that's obviously not controlled by the russian government, but they're clamping down and, you know, putin after this election will be expected to clamp down i'm more, everyone's been saying it's becoming more and more like the soviet union, less and less free >> evelyn quickly. there was a
5:47 am
sobering report in the washington post quoting us officials on background about what would happen if ukraine does not get this new aid package that's being discussed in washington. there was one blind quote was it could lead to a potential collapse. how dire do you think the situation might be? >> i mean, john the ukrainians will fight, of course, to the last man, woman and child. but it could be dire. and let's not forget that is lad amir putin wins in ukraine, meaning his military is not defeated. his foreign policy is not defeated. he's going to turn and challenge nato allies, which means we will have to come to their assistance because because if we don't, he's coming for us next meeting. he wants to destroy our democracy. so there's a lot at stake here for the united states and for the american people. we don't want boots on the ground fighting against russia in europe. so let's defeat russia, help ukraine defeat russia in ukraine today, have a live broadcast, always great to speak with you. thank you so much. sarah >> it was like a bomb went off. that's what an ohio share of

5:53 am
>> kentucky governor andy beshear in a roundtable discussion on cannabis policy in his state of the union address, president biden said his cabinet will quote, review the federal classification of marijuana potentially expunging thousands of convictions for possession. cnn's senior data reporter, harry enten is here right now. i have to say when it comes to marijuana, opinions have changed more than on almost any subject in polling. let's first talk about the issue of pardons for possession. how do people feel about that? yeah. i would not have expected this one. i was a kid. i pardon those convicted on federal charges have marijuana possession, 69%, 69% favor, compared to just 23% of posen john, i was going through the cross tabs, a majority of democrats, not surprisingly, a majority of independence and even a majority of republicans are in favor of parting those who are convicted for federal charges marijuana possession. >> again, in the real thing is here's how much opinions have changed, right?
5:54 am
>> oh, my goodness, gracious. look at this. use of marijuana should be legal. you go back to 1,969. it was just 12%, just while percent. it will still just 23% in 1999 not that, not that much different when i was a kid, or 34% in 2013, again, when i was a kid. but today as i stand here as a grown man, 70% of americans believed that marijuana use should be legal an all time high. >> i have to say it's doubled from 2013 2023 to see that number double is really just astounding. what about usage? yeah, >> perhaps it shouldn't be so surprising that usage has also gone up. so currently we have 17% who say they currently smoke marijuana. that is actually up, that's more than double where we were at 7% back in 2013, they didn't even bother asking the question 25 have years ago, but have ever smoked that. again, look at the climb here. 50%. now, say at mit that they at least one shoes marijuana. and again, compare that to where we were in the late '60s. it was just
5:55 am
4%. you talked about that trend upward on believers. scene. this is a big trend upward, but still not as much as people's views on legalizing and more people want to legalize it that admit to having ever used it, which is interesting to me, what about alcohol versus marijuana? >> yeah, very quickly alcohol versus marijuana. what is more dangerous? one of the reasons it's changed. look at this today, 54% of americans say alcohol is more dangerous than marijuana compared to just 7%. it was a near even split about 50 years ago massive change she's on this this is an issue that has just massively changed. all right. harriet. and thank you very much. some pretty clear data telling a very interesting story there. appreciate it. thank you, john kate, in the weeks since president biden's state of the union address, his campaign has been barn storming, battleground states pennsylvania, georgia, new hampshire, wisconsin, and yesterday, michigan with more of course next week in michigan, biden made his second campaign visit there to the state. just this year. >> specifically, joe biden was
5:56 am
in >> saginaw, michigan. this is the only michigan county to have voted for the winning presidential candidate. and the last four elections. so is biden doing enough to win voters, including the uncommitted democratic protests, voters from the primary, joining me right now is democratic congressman from michigan, dan kildee is district includes saginaw county. it's good to see you, congressman. thank you so much for coming in. you can paint with biden when he was in the district yesterday. want to reiterate? great. >> kind of the >> fun fact about saginaw county is a county in michigan that is voted for the, the winning presidential candidate in the last four elections. with that in mind, what work do you all still have to do here? >> well, thank you. first of all, for having me on. i think the most important work and i talked to the president about this, is that we have to continue to lay out how effective our economic policies have been. course, we know that a lot of people don't necessarily feel that but as we
5:57 am
explained to them that the new manufacturing jobs that we're seeing, for example, in saginaw county are not some sort of accident, are good luck. it's the result of biden economic policies that are reinvesting in manufacturing. we have to do that over and over again. that message will make a difference. most people the side of the election or how they're going to vote in an election based on how it affects the conversations they have at their own kitchen table and that's what the president and i did yesterday with those folks and saginaw and we talked about repeatedly doing that over and over again. >> i'm >> just will not be his last visit to our area >> let's talk about another issue that michigan voters care deeply about. you also said, during the primary that when it comes to israel's war against hamas, that you think there is a stark distinction between biden's approach and trump's, and that the way you put it is that reality will sink in with voters and that they'll move to biden in the end. are you seeing that movement since we
5:58 am
now have the general election set >> i think we have an opportunity to bring those those very important voices back to the democratic ticket. and i will say very important voices because those protests, voters, they hold the view that i happen to share. i disagree with israel's prosecution of this war. i've shared that directly with the president but in many ways, what we need to do is say that quiet part out loud. as senator schumer did yesterday in a very important speech. that is to hold israel accountable not only for the way they defend themselves, which obviously they have the right to do. but the effect that that has on the people in and gaza, and the palestinians, every human life is precious and we have to make that point over and over again. and i believe the end of the day there is a clear distinction between the way president biden approaches these issues and what we've seen with former president trump congressman.
5:59 am
>> thank you so much for jumping on. i really appreciate i have to jump over to some breaking news, but thank you so much for your time this morning is always cnn breaking news all right, so i'm just getting handed. we do have some breaking news. a ruling has been issued by the judge in georgia on whether or not to disk qualify fulton county district attorney, fani willis from overseeing donald trump's election subversion case. they're in georgia. so here's what's happening right now. we know the ruling has been issued. our teams are going through that decision right now in order to make sure we read the full ruling, have a full understanding what is in this ruling before we bring you all of the details. in the meantime, as we're waiting for our teams and our teams are gonna be bringing us these details. elie honig is standing, standing here with me. elie, thank you so much. mature for jumping jumping down here. we're going to wait to get the exact details of what we hear from judge scott mcafee, but this has been the
6:00 am
moment that has been longtime coming longtime anticipated, and very much waiting for for everyone on every side of this case. what is at stake here? so let's set the stakes >> if fani willis is disqualified then her entire office would be removed. in this case. the case would go into a sort of holding pattern where it might languish indefinitely if she is not disqualified, then the case can carry on. now there's still questions about when it would be tried. the da's asking for an august trial. de i don't think that's realistic, but really whether this case stays on track or not yet will be term and by the decision which we're going through right now as to whether the da has been disqualified la stick with me controlling tells me it. paula reid was hit over to paula reid who has more information about what is in this decision from scott matt from judge scott mcafee, paula, what do you know? >> so the top line here is that the judge has ruled that the district attorney, fani willis, can continue on this case against former president trump and over a dozen other defendants. but he does address this
