oi’ him politically. whether it will or not that remains to be seen, and some people have speculated this might backfire on democrats, or cause headaches forjoe biden. that is difficult to predict, but it is hard to say that an indictment is good news for the person who is indicted. it is going to be, no matter whether donald trump onset site two are characterises it this way or not, this is going to be a distraction for donald trump and this will be of an opening for donald trump's opponent to our running arm a run against him for president to say there is too much drama around donald trump. there are too many complications. this is going to be too much of a potential pitfall, and that is going to plan something i have heard from many republicans, which as they like donald trump as president, they liked what he did as president, they liked what he did as president, they liked his policies, but they don't liked his policies, but they don't like is all the drama around him, all of the distractions, all of the tweeting, but also all the controversy, and this will be exhibit a now in their case to say,

on. we'll see democrat to view this is good news, he viewed donald trump is good news, he viewed donald trump is deserving to be indicted. some are celebrating the fact that this is finally happening. we will see people on the right to view this as a partisan witchhunt, as an attempt to get donald trump and an abuse of prosecutorial power that this city attorney is bringing charges against attorney is bringing charges against a former president who's running for president. this is a relatively minor case in their view that shouldn't have been brought to trial, because it is so disruptive to american politics. i think all of it will go into the trenches of american politics and be fought over. �* ., j , american politics and be fought over. ~ ., ., american politics and be fought over. �* ., ., ~ american politics and be fought over. ~ ., ., ~ �*, ., over. anthony's or kirk, it's great to net over. anthony's or kirk, it's great to get you _ over. anthony's or kirk, it's great to get you on _ over. anthony's or kirk, it's great to get you on the _ over. anthony's or kirk, it's great to get you on the programme. i over. anthony's or kirk, it's great to get you on the programme. -- to get you on the programme. —— anthony zurcher. thanks for joining us. forthose anthony zurcher. thanks for joining us. for those of you join us joining

us, ourtop us. for those of you join us joining us, our top story this evening — breaking news over the fact that donald trump has become the first former us president to face criminal charges. it relates to alleged touch money payments to an adult entertainer before the 2016 election. we will be returning to that developing story as and when we get more information. i want to take you to another big story for us, and that's to russia. the white house has condemned his detention in his strongest terms. his employer has vehemently denied the allegations.

he will be kept to their pending trialfor two months, but we know from experience that these cases take a long time to go to trial, so it's likely that will be extended. and we heard from us representatives that they're still seeking consular access to evan. while the conditions in russia have certainly grown much worse for journalists, in russia have certainly grown much worse forjournalists, this has an even greater chilling effect because i think for a lot of people, there was an assumption that if you were an accredited foreign,... i was an assumption that if you were an accredited foreign, . . ._ an accredited foreign,... i want to interrupt you _ an accredited foreign,... i want to interrupt you now _ an accredited foreign,... i want to interrupt you now for _ an accredited foreign,... i want to interrupt you now for some i an accredited foreign,... i want to i interrupt you now for some breaking news and take you to the closing arguments that have ended in the gwyneth paltrow case. this arguments that have ended in the gwyneth paltrow case.— arguments that have ended in the gwyneth paltrow case. this is been a lona and gwyneth paltrow case. this is been a long and difficult _ gwyneth paltrow case. this is been a long and difficult trial _ gwyneth paltrow case. this is been a long and difficult trial for _ gwyneth paltrow case. this is been a long and difficult trial for the - long and difficult trial for the parties _ long and difficult trial for the parties. and their counsel. and emotions — parties. and their counsel. and emotions may be running high. the court _ emotions may be running high. the court reminds everyone that there should _ court reminds everyone that there should he — court reminds everyone that there

want to bring you now to the other top story that we've been reporting on today, and that is the breaking news out of the united states, where in the past hour or so, reminder of that top story for you, were donald trump has become the first former united states president to face criminal charges. the case relates to alleged hush money. there has been a lot of discussion this evening about what that means for the political process and donald trump as well. earlier, we heard from the washington correspondent anthony zurcher, who talked about what the implications are for donald trump in the days and weeks ahead. given the fact that the legal process in the united states will start to play out. the fact that as this goes ahead, we will start to see what will happen in terms of

that legal process. what's more is always on the bbc website. for now, i want to take you to the uk, where the 44—year—old thomas cashman has been found guilty for the murder of olivia pratt—korbel. olivia wasjust nine years old when she was shot dead last summer. cashman was also found guilty of injuring her mother in the attempted murder ofjoseph nee. it was the case that not... his family were ushered out of the courtroom after loudly protesting his innocence. i just want to know what i've done. that's all! all i want to know is what i'm being arrested for. his own barrister called him one of the most hated people in the country. you're under arrest on suspicion of murder and suspicion of attempted murder, twice. this is thomas cashman, the man who shot a nine—year—old girl dead.

the police caught him after a huge manhunt. iain't i ain't resisting. he'd used two guns, hell bent on murder, but his plan went wrong. last august, cashman was lying in wait in this liverpool street. the drugs dealer was intent on executing another dealer, called joseph nee. as nee walked along the road, cashman caught up with him. gunfire. he opened fire. he kept shooting at his target... gunfire. ..but then his gunjammed. nee ran for his life. he saw the light from an open doorway and ran towards it. cashman shot again as nee barged in. the bullet went through the door. it hit nine—year—old olivia pratt—korbel in the chest. terrified by the sound of gunfire, the little girl had left her bed to find her mum. cheryl korbel was herself shot

as she tried to keep cashman out. you know you've done wrong, so you need to own up. today, she was in court to hear the guilty verdicts. you know you've done wrong, so you need to own up. - today, she was in court to hear the guilty verdicts. yes! cheryl, how are you feeling? ecstatic. the murder made national headlines, the shooting of a child cited as a real low, but not a new low. exactly 15 years earlier, 11—year—old rhstones was also shot dead in liverpool. olivia's murder carried the sense of history repeating itself. the shooting provoked a strong reaction within this community. information flowed into the police in a volume detectives say they haven't experienced before. and they say some of those they'd expected to put up a wall of silence, chose to speak out. what we saw with this particular crime, with olivia's murder is people were talking about a line being crossed,

almost for those involved in crime, as though there is an acceptable level where you don't talk normally, that grass culture being embedded. what we saw with this crime is that lots and lots of people on both sides of that criminal line were wanting to come forward and speak to us. but until he was caught, thomas cashman was still terrorising some within the community. he was causing that fear and that intimidation and putting people off. the investigation has shown that once he was charged, people felt more confident and comfortable to come forward. the number of guns being fired on merseyside has fallen significantly over the last decade, though last year there were five though last year, there were five deaths in as many months, and cases like olivia's highlight the risk of any bullet being fired. i don't know how many people|

were harmed as a result of me putting firearms on the street, but no doubt people _ were harmed and it's- something i massively regret. sicarius mcgrath was part of an organised crime gang in liverpool, jailed for violence and gun offences, now rehabilitated. he's started to work with gang members to turn their lives around. any life is unfortunate if it's lost to any type of crime _ or any type of violence. but the fact that it's an innocent child in their own home, - or going about their business, makes it much worse. - and i believe there's many more incidents to come like that. i the jailing of thomas cashman may bring some small comfort to olivia's family. i feel i'm on it as well. but, of course, it can't bring her back. her childhood has been cruelly and senselessly snatched away. that can never be repaired. olivia mortiz, bbc news. i want to take you back to our top story today as we've been reporting.

breaking news coming out of the us in the last hour or so with donald trump becoming the first former united states president to face criminal charges. the case relates to alleged hush money payments to an aduu to alleged hush money payments to an adult entertainer before the 2016 election. mrtrump adult entertainer before the 2016 election. mr trump has denied these allegations. we have heard from him in the statement this evening, but i'm joined by sarahjones from politico �*s usa. a huge moment in american politics. unprecedented in american politics. unprecedented in american history. talk is your reaction. , ., ., ., ., reaction. first of all, i want to sa it's reaction. first of all, i want to say it's never— reaction. first of all, i want to say it's never a _ reaction. first of all, i want to say it's never a good - reaction. first of all, i want to say it's never a good moment| reaction. first of all, i want to l say it's never a good moment to reaction. first of all, i want to - say it's never a good moment to have any former president possibly indict it. that is not good history for the united states of america. on the other hand, the storm is here, and the law has to be applied without fear or favour,

the law has to be applied without fear orfavour, and the law has to be applied without fear or favour, and that's what we're seeing in this indictment, and we're seeing in this indictment, and we now learned that the former president will be arraigned in the man happen —— manhattan criminal court next week. i think the biggest thing, two things that are the most important on the top of my reaction is that, number one, to stave off any potential violence — we've already seen the former president inciting his supporters. there were threats sent to the manhattan da, and one of his supporters a few days ago took out a knife and started wielding it at some people who did not agree with her outside the manhattan criminal court. i do believe law enforcement is prepared to sign. the second thing, are these charges going to stick? i think if they don't, the problem is that... there are about a dozen cases that are heading possibly for an

indictment against the former president. if they don't stick, you have the possibility that he and his team use this case to dismiss all of the other cases. i think the other cases are even more serious. i don't want to downplay this case because michael cohen did go to jailfor the same thing. on the other hand, this is the former president, and it is a very big deal to even contemplate indicting him. we don't know what it's even for at this point. as indicting him. we don't know what it's even for at this point.- it's even for at this point. as you ooint it's even for at this point. as you point out. _ it's even for at this point. as you point out. the — it's even for at this point. as you point out, the details _ it's even for at this point. as you point out, the details of - it's even for at this point. as you point out, the details of that i point out, the details of that indictment i haven't been the least, but what we have heard, reaction from donald trump, who released a long statement today. i want to read as i move it out to you and get your thoughts. we were talking to anthony zurcher a little while earlier, and he spoke to the fact that this is the kind of rhetoric we've seen from donald trump before. donald trump has called this indictment political

persecution and election interference of the highest level. i wonder this evening, as people in the us sit down and watch this break on prime time rolling news coverage. what they're thinking and what's going through their mind tonight? that's a good question because the thing that he's going to look for, i think he's hoping this is going to reanimate his base, and he has a lot of reason to expect that the case. however, there's been a lot of trump fatigue even among his strong supporters. what we are going to be looking for is to see, do these people show up? of people have already shown up to the courthouse, he does have these strong supporters who will be there. this may even make them more popular. it may make it so that he kicks other people in the republican primary write down until they don't matter at all

because it's going to be sucking up all of the oxygen, and i imagine that he wants to be handcuffed and do this parade of persecution. that's really what his bass response to, they believe he's been persecuted. i would like to point out that just yesterday, trump was praising this very same grand jury. crosstalk great to get you on the programme. editor in chief at politicususa, thank you so much forjoining us. just to remind you of that top story this evening, that breaking news coming out of the usa with donald trump becoming the first former united states president to face criminal charges. the case relates to alleged hush money payments to an adult entertainer before the 2016 election. lots more on bbc website and the other big breaking news

stories, when paltrow wooding will... thanks for stories, when paltrow wooding will. .. thanks for watching. hello there. thursday turned out to be the warmest day of the year so far, with temperatures in suffolk reaching highs of 17.8 celsius, very close to 18 degrees. but while there were some spells of sunshine, there were also some hefty downpours. and we're starting friday with, actually, some more persistent rain swirling around this area of low pressure. now, this has been named by the french weather service. it's been named storm martis for the strength of the winds in the north of france. but it is also bringing some very strong winds through the english channel affecting the channel islands, southern coasts of england, even into the south coast of wales. gusts of 50, 60, 70 mph as we start friday morning with some outbreaks of heavy and persistent rain. that rain really lingering through the day across the south west of england, even as the winds

slowly ease for the south east southwest of england, even as the winds slowly ease for the south east of england, east anglia, the midlands, parts of wales will see some hefty showers. northern england and eastern scotland, quite cloudy with a bit of rain at times. some bright skies for western scotland and northern ireland, but with some showers as well. not quite as warm as it was on thursday — generally 8—13 celsius. and then, as we head through friday night, well, this band of rain stays quite stubbornly across western parts of the uk, a lot of cloud filtering into eastern areas as well. not a particularly cold night, temperatures generally between 3—9 celsius. so, into saturday, quite a messy weather picture. this area of low pressure's still fairly close by. a couple of different weather systems bringing a focus for some outbreaks of rain. we will have this band of rain likely to affect parts of northern ireland, wales and the south of england as we go through saturday. further east, a lot of clouds, some spots of rain with that and quite a brisk breeze, meaning that for parts of eastern scotland and northeast england, it will feel really rather cool, in fact, quite chilly.

and even further inland and further west, it is going to be cooler than it has been. now, as we get into the second half of the weekend, low pressure loses its influence and high pressure starts to build, and that means we'll have lighter winds for the most part on sunday, a little bit breezy in the southeast corner. there should also be less cloud and more in the way of sunshine. and aside from a few showers, most places will be dry, but still a little cooler than it has been — highs of 9—12 celsius.
