redlands this is cnn newsroom with rosemarie thanks for joining us. we'll later today, a jury will hear closing arguments and the unprecedented first ever criminal trial of a former us president prosecutors will try to weave together weeks of testimony and evidence to convince jurors that donald trump is guilty of falsifying fine business records with the intent of influencing the 2016 election. trump meanwhile, has been railing on truth, social on monday, he posted this and i'm quoting him why is the corrupt government allowed to make the final argument in the case against me? why com the defense go last big advantage very unfair witch hunt well, it's actually normal for the prosecution to get the final word when they must bear the burden of proof. jurors will likely begin deliberating trump's fate on wedensday, and
12:03 am
he could get up to 20 years in prison if convicted. >> cnn ends kara scannell reports on what we can expect from each sides closing remarks donald trump, watching nascar in north carolina this weekend, while his hush money trial approaches the final lap in new york you believe i think by a lot trump's lawyers and prosecutors will square off trying to win over the jury of seven men and five women. prosecutors called 20 witnesses over five weeks and in their closing arguments, they're expected to tie testimony together with a paper trail of text messages, phone calls, and the records at the center of the case the 11 invoices he says seeking payment pursuant to a retainer agreement, a dozen vouchers and 11 checks. most signed by trump very good. >> i think we have cations
12:04 am
there is no during the trial, the jury heard from former members of trump's inner circle, the publisher of the national enquirer, david pecker campaign aide, hope hicks, and his former fixer and personal attorney, michael cohen, who was the only witness to directly tied trump to the cover up trump's attorneys are up first and closings and are expected the two attack cohen's credibility, arguing to the jury that they cannot find trump guilty based on the testimony of a convicted liar, michael cohen is a convicted liar and he's got no credibility whatsoever. >> cohen was on the witness stand for five days, telling the jury, trump called adult film actress stormy daniels story a disaster dear for his campaign and directed cohen to take care of. >> it, cohen testified and he spoke with trump twice to get his approval, just before wiring the $130,000 payment to daniels attorney to block her story of an alleged affair with trump from becoming public to influence the 2016 election trump denies the affair and i can't even tell you how many
12:05 am
times he said to me, you know, i hate the fact that we did it and my comment to him was, but every person that you've spoken to told you it was the right move? >> he told the jury that trump signed off on the repayment scheme in a meeting at trump tower with former trump organization cfo, allen weisselberg. cohen walked the jury through the 34 allegedly falsified documents testifying there was no retainer agreement. the money was payback for the daniels deal. >> this $35,000 check was one of 11 check installments that was paid throughout the year while he was president, the president of the united states thus wrote a personal check for the payment of hush money as part of a criminal scheme to violate campaign finance laws trump attorney todd blanche has used cohen's own words to bolster their defense that cohen would say anything to take trump down and is out for
12:06 am
revenge are truly i can hope that this man ends up in prison trump's lawyers are also expected to highlight the witnesses that the prosecution did not call, including weisselberg, who was in that meeting with cohen and keith schiller, trump's former bodyguard, who was with trump during the campaign closings are expected to go all day tuesday, on wednesday, the judge will instruct the jury on the law what prosecutors need to prove in order to win a conviction. and then the jury will begin deliberations. the jury of seven men and five women will continue until they reach a verdict. kara scannell, cnn, new york so how important will these final words be to the jury? does one side have more work to do than the other? we put those questions to politicos senior legal affairs reported josh, christine well, i think that trump's sayyed has probably more to do here because they're going to need to stitch together sort of things that they have left hanging in various arguments.
12:07 am
>> they have put out a number of different issues that they want the jury to consider as the prosecution case was presented. remember, the defense didn't really call very many witnesses compared to the prosecution. maybe 10% as many, only two witnesses. one was sort of almost trivial to put in some phone records and so they have been cross-examining the prosecution's witnesses, but not necessarily trying to string together a full theory of what happened. whereas i think the prosecution's theory is pretty evidence. so even though the prosecution has the burden of proof, i think the defense is going to have to try to make a more, if not consistent more explained argument, then they have thus far now to another one of the four criminal indictments against trump, the classified documents case in a blistering court filing on monday, trump's attorneys asked the
12:08 am
judge to reject special counsel jack smith's request for a gag order that would limit what trump can say about the law enforcement person so now, who searched his mar-a-lago estate the former president's lawyers also said the prosecutors who asked for the gag order should be held in contempt, calling them, quote, the thought police. >> the defense called the request and extraordinary, unprecedented, and unconstitutional attempt to target trump's free speech which as he runs for president, it's unclear when the florida judge who trump appointed will rule. she has already indefinitely postponed the case israel is facing growing international outrage over sunday's airstrike in rafah, which gaza officials say killed at least 45 people and injured more than 200 at a camp for displaced palestinians according to a us official, israel claims and explosion from the strike ignited a fuel

12:11 am
his words, as a tragic mistake. we have had this statement from the us humanitarian affairs chief martin griffith is saying whether the attack was a war crime or a tragic mistake as prime minister netanyahu put it, for the people of gaza. there is no debate what happened last night was the latest and possibly most cruel abomination he went on to say that calling it a mistake is a message that means nothing for those killed, those grieving, and those trying to save lives, of course, important to underscore that this so area of rafah which came under attack, was supposed to be a safe zone. this was not a region of rafat, her neighborhood of rafah. the had received an evacuation order from the israeli military. and this is an area densely populated with civilians taking shelter in these makeshift tents as we have seen across the city and the situation across the city of rafah is certainly growing more desperate. we know that one of the main hospitals there, the quality hospital, has now had to close du to continued attacks around the
12:12 am
hospitals surroundings. and as you mentioned, rosemary, we have in the early hours of the morning and overnight continued to see further bombings across the gaza strip killing at least six people, including in the southern city of rafah nada bashir joining us live from london. >> many thanks for your spain ireland, and norway. each plan to make a formal declaration today, recognizing a palestinian state. the country's announced their plans last week with the three leaders saying their decision is an important step towards peace in the region ireland's foreign minister alongside his spanish and norwegian counterparts in brussels on monday, said, it's time to change the approach to achieve a two-state solution 47 million people across the us are bracing for severe weather today after a weekend of deadly storm systems and tornadoes, parts of texas run the risk of harsh storms in the coming hours in addition to flood

12:17 am
unstable with huge rocks and debris still falling four days after the initial landslide on friday. those conditions are making recovery efforts more dangerous as crews struggle to reach the area for more, we want to go to cnn's anna coren, who joins us live from hong kong. so anna, what is the latest on these evacuation orders as well as these? search and recovery efforts well, these evacuation orders for more than 7,000 people, rosemarie, have been brought on because this landslide that happened on friday is still active and moving. >> that is according to government officials we spoke to to someone from the un who was on the scene yesterday and he said with his own eyes, who were seeing that the landslip and then a few hours ago, we spoke to an official from the province who said that this is still posing a threat to life. hence those thousands of people

12:19 am
just impossible for them to operate so rescuers, villagers are using shovels, sticks, their bare hands to try and find the bodies. this is very much a recovery operation. six bodies have been recovered so far, we understand that too, people miraculously were pooled alive, but that was very early on. but as i say, six bodies have been recovered so far. so as it stands at the moment, rosary, these nine hectare area of debris is now a mass grave. all all right. thanks to anna car and for bringing us up to date on that tragic story so to come a 10-year-old boy recounts the horrors of a russian strike on his home in eastern europe crane, one which killed both of his parents, his mother dying right in front of him. and later california police search for suspects responsible for

12:49 am
japan, and south korea. but it's showing up in other countries as well. the rise of the internet, covid, isolation and financial academic pressures are often say hi to it as causes. and joining me now is hamish mcleod, a professor of clinical psychology at the university of glasgow. appreciate you being with us i'm pleased to be. here. >> so you were part of a study that examined this hikikomori phenomenon how widespread is it and who's the most vulnerable to it? >> it's widespread across nations now and increasingly is more studies are done in a variety of countries. we're finding people having extreme social withdrawal. so it's not just something that's limited to japan or other asian countries. it's been found and nigeria denmark, spain, the uk and france it's a widespread problem and a source of great
12:50 am
suffering to the families that are affected as well as the person who's withdrawn and so what actually triggers this extreme social withdrawal and isolation? what is it i think it's important to realize that there's probably two kinds of withdrawal. >> so withdrawal happens as a coping response that people may have in the face of life stresses. and that can be an adaptive thing that helps people recover but for hikikomori with people withdrawal for six months or more, it's often because they've failed to achieve a cherish life goals. sometimes it's a fairly to achieve something university or to get a job that was sought or to meet expectations such as the kind of career that you're going to pursue. and for that kind of person they seem to react by withdrawing and cutting themselves off from society so how do you diagnose
12:51 am
and of course, more importantly, perhaps a treat a person going through this, this level, this extreme level of isolates yeah, i mean, it's it's one of those things. >> it's unfortunately very tricky because the person themselves may not reach out for help. it's off from the family members that will be the ones who identify the problem and they'll sometimes have been waiting for months. and in some cases, year is before things get bad enough for them to seek help from services. and then the diagnosis usually involves trying to rule out that there's not a another explanation. so sometimes there are problems such as anxiety disorders or other kind of mental health conditions but basically if the person's head persistent withdrawal more than six months without contact outside of the home and no other role functioning such as engagement and employment or work or training, then that usually would lead to the
12:52 am
conclusion that the person's showing the hikikomori pattern. >> and is there a particular age group that's more vulnerable to this this phenomenon and what do family and friends need to be looking at? now for so they can offer early support and intervention yeah. >> i mean, it's probably important to think of it, not necessarily as something that affects only a particular age group, but the onset certainly affects younger people more and that make sense partly because this is when a lot of the initial steps and do adult life an attempt to achieve cherished goals like completion of university, you're getting employment and leaving home. all of these things tend to come on at late adolescence, early adulthood. but in japan, where he kept commodity was first identified in the 1990s after the economic contraction
12:53 am
there. some of those people have ended up staying in their withdrawn state sometimes willing to the 50s and 60s and now, as their elderly parents are passing away, these people are being re-identified and society so it's affects people across the age range, but the onset is younger and to your question about how to help one of the first things i think is that it's the families around the person that may need the first port of contact and help with how to communicate with and reconnect with their family member they helping of people with hikikomori in the longer term tends to involve gradually re-exposure and reintroduction into social polls, things like work, and employment sometimes group therapies that encouraged social interaction and then gradual re-exposure to roles and responsibilities can help people recover it is important that some people do recover
