these two friends who allegedly helped the boston bombing suspect cover his tracks? well, today they're being arraigned in court. they have been charged with removing a backpack containing fireworks and a laptop computer, among other items, from dzhokhar tsarnaev. he was the younger of the two, from his dorm room at u mass.. so cnn is live at the courthouse right now. we'll bring you the latest as soon as we get more information on that hearing today. meantime, it was a lengthy rain delay. it was finally ending. the hometown team, the atlanta braves, and the visiting philadelphia phillies finally close to playing ball, but then tragedy struck. a fan, 29 years old, fell 65 feet to his death. he fell 65 feet from the upper level in atlantis turner field onto the stadium parking lot reserved for the players.

police have called it, quote, unquote, apparently accidental, but they're talking to some witnesses still. let me bring on lean a machado. she's there live. i understand, a lelina, i understand you're getting a photograph? >> reporter: yeah. the police investigation is ongoing. all they're saying is this appears to be an accident. i want to emphasize appears because that's what they are saying. they also say foul play is not suspected at this time. now we want to show you a picture of the victim. his name is ronald homer. he was 29 years old. he was from conniers, georgia. that's a town 25 miles east of atlanta. this all happened here at turn ners field right before the start of the game. there had been a two hour rain delay. i want to show you the general area where this accident happened.

we'll zoom into the pleechers over there. police say it happened behind the bleachers. they say homer was standing alone near a railing that was above waist high when he fell 65 feet. police say he fell from an upper level platform to the secured parking lot you mentioned. we just heard from the medical examiner's office that the autopsy has been completed. however, the cause of death in this case is still pending further investigation. toxicology results could take up to eight weeks before they're ready and, brooke, as far as we know, we still don't know if alcohol was a factor in what happened here. >> it's horrible all the way around. i remember back in 2011 there was a fatal fall at the park where the texas rangers play. in response to that the team, you know, actually raised the height of some of its rales at the stadium. do you know in talking to folks with the braves, with turner field, alina, are there immediate changes planned? i know there's a game tonight. >> there is a game tonight. it's a continuation of the

series against the phillies. but as far as we know, there are no immediate changes planned. we have called the team but we have not yet heard back from them. >> okay. alina machado. now some more news in the investigation of aaron hernandez. a dive team looking for the gun used to kill odin lloyd in june. the pond is across the street from pine lake. an extensive search of that lake over several days turned up nothing. hernandez, who is a former new england patriot, has been charged with the murder and has pleaded not guilty. new details today about the rescue of 16-year-old hannah anderson straight from one of the rescuers who found her in that treacherous terrain in idaho. a u.s. marshal that was part of the week long search that stretched all the way from southern california way up into the wilderness of central idaho is describing the moment he

spotted hannah anderson and her captor, james dimaggio. >> so we circled the lake a few times and didn't see anything. then all of a sudden there was a little glimmer of blue. then weeshl 25ib8 to see that it was a blue tent. we were able to verify that it was a male and a female with blond hair and a small animal. so at that point we knew we had something extremely valuable. well, there were several things going through my mind. number one, we definitely were not going to take our eyes off that tent until we had it covered by ground units and make sure that we determined for sure if it was or was not them. because they were spotted so quickly everybody was kind of taken off guard. we really were trenching ourselves in for a long, drawn out search. >> as for hannah, she is back with family and friends. san diego county sheriff bill gore said the team had no idea her mother and brother were murdered until she was rescued.

at a news conference in her hometown of san diego her dad asked for privacy. >> the healing process will be slow. she has been through a tremendous, horrific ordeal. i am very proud of her and i love her very much. she is surrounded by the love of her family, friends, and community. again, please as a family, give us our team to heal and grieve. >> police say the investigation is still ongoing but they caution there are things, quote, unquote, we might never know. and a building crumbles. dozens of people inside. quick thinking by this one security guard helped everyone get out alive. we talked about this yesterday. we showed you this huge 60 foot sinkhole. just yesterday talked to someone who escaped. now we're learning how the people inside this resort, this is near disney world, got out as quickly as they did. keep in mind this was the middle of the night. most people and kids sound asleep. so there was a security guard. he actually went door to door to

door banging on the doors waking people up warning them about the building crumbling around them. now he's being haild ed as a he. martin savidge talked to him about his quick actions. >> reporter: that's building 104. people inside, the guests, about 100 of them began hearing odd noises, things like popping, cracking, then the windows began blowing out, one after the other. there was a security guard nearby, richard chamblin. he first got the call, thought it was a domestic dispute, but once he got inside the building realized it was the building itself that was coming down. the same story he was trying to relay to the customers inside who were waking up and not believing a word of what he said. >> i thought about everybody else before i thought about myself. >> reporter: so how did it begin? tell us that. >> i was driving down the street. i was flagged down by a guest telling me that they had a problem. they kept hearing noises,

popping and cracking noises in the building. then i heard glass shattering from the second and third floors. >> reporter: so as a security officer you're thinking what? >> i thought it was a domestic disturbance. i went door to door beating on the doors trying to get people out and making sure they were safe. i went floor to floor, got everybody out. at the time i got done i really didn't think about t. i got them out and got out myself. there was people sleeping in the rooms, had i to physically wake them up and get them out of the building. >> reporter: what was their reaction? >> i said, this is no joke. you can look down the hallway and see it. they looked down and got devastated. i tookd them out each end of the stair wells. i said get out to the stair wells as quick as you can. don't worry about grabbing your stuff, just get out. >> reporter: everyone was able to get out. in fact, nobody was even injured. engineers are going to be going over this sight to check out the rest of the property. meanwhile here, they are considering it miraculous that

this is the only real devastation without any significant tragedy. martin savidge, cnn, clermont, florida. for this legal victory for the queen of southern cooking but not a total victory. a federal judge has dismissed the racial claims. the judge says the woman can't claim to be a victim of racial discrimination because she's white, but here's the but. other parts of the suit including sexual harassment and abusive treatment claims, they are still pending. you know the story. deen's career took a huge hit this summer after she admitted in deposition once upon a time she used the n word. she lost major endorsements and her food network cooking show. she said she is not a racist and she apologized. now to oprah and this

controversy that has apparently erupted over this purse. she was shopping for a pretty pricey hand bag in zurich, switzer land. now oprah and this store clerk, they say this was a huge misunderstanding. >> i think that incident in switzerland was just an incident in switzerland. i'm really sorry that it got blown up. i purposely did not mention the name of the store. i'm sorry that i said it was switzerland. i was just referencing it as an example of being in a place where people don't expect that you would be able to be there. >> nischelle turner, let me bring you in. you sat down with oprah not too many days ago talking a little bit about this. i know you have both sides of the 120ry. what's oprah's version of events? >> let's start with oprah. oprah's not apologizing for talking about what happened to her or saying that it didn't

happen. she seems to be saying that she's sorry everyone is focusing on the specifics of this story and not the point that she was trying to make that even oprah winfrey believes she is discriminated against. she said last night that she was just trying to use this incident as an example of the fact that she believes she still experiences racism, just not in the overt ways, which is something that she did say to me when we sat down last week because she also said, you know, nobody's going to come up to her and call her the n word to her face but she believes it still plays out in other ways and she thinks this hand bag incident was one of those ways. >> she went out to talk not specifically about the store but you have the store clerk talking to media and she's challenging oprah's story. a, she also now is like apparently fearful for her own life? >> you know, there's a lot that she said to that swiss newspaper. the first thing though, you're right. oprah did not name the store. it was the media who found out

what store it was and who the store clerk was. now that store clerk is telling her version to a swiss newspaper. she denies that she ever told oprah that the bag was too expensive for her. she believes this was all a misunderstanding, that's what she says. the store clerk is an italian woman and is reportedly blaming some of this on language issues. she said she had a hand bag in her hand that was the exact same bag as the one on display except it was a different terrell and it cost less. she said she tried to steer oprah towards that bag. in essence she was trying to help a customer get a better buy although if i'm a salesperson -- >> of course. >> chunk of change. >> you don't want to give somebody a deal. you want them to buy the most expensive item in the store. >> maybe it was lost in translation. >> can i just go on just really zbhik. >> yeah. >> the store clerk does say that the store makes an effort to respect and treat everyone the same.

she also says that she offered to resign over this whole thing but the manager said no and stood by her. >> thank you for clierg it up. good to see you. coming up, it's the story, if you have little ones, pay close attention. if you have little ones that sleep in another room, you have a baby monitor. that's there to let you know if they're there, need something, keep a good, close look on them whampt if the monitor starts to move and some other voice appears through this thing. that happened to a family. hacking a baby monitor. how you can protect yourself coming up next. with diabetes, it's tough to keep life balanced.

he says he first heard a voice down the hall. as he got closer, what he said was getting worse. >> wake up allyson, you little [ bleep ]. >> he saw the camera move. >> he immediately pulled the plug and started doing research. he believes someone hacked his router, the person could see allyson's name on her wall to call her by it. he now wants to warn other parents about the danger. >> as a father, you know, i'm supposed to protect her against people like this and so it's a little embarrassing, you know, to say the least but it's not going to happen again. >> the only saving grace is that allyson never heard a thing. >> allyson was born deaf so she has cochlear implants. thankfully we had them off and she didn't hear any of it and she slept right through it. >> that was our affiliate ktrk with that report. i want bed to talk more about this. david kennedy, security consultant joins me here.

david, my first thought was, what? and yikes! you have this ip camera. this is the camera in this particular instance, internet protocol camera. not your traditional baby monitor. how does this thing exactly work? >> brooke, if you look at it, the way these devices work is they connect through your home wireless networking and they allow you to be able to sync up things like your phone to them so you can communicate with your baby or look at them. i have three kids. i have one as well at home. they use the entire router to communicate and talk back and forth between the rooms. >> so if this thing is connected to a wireless router, who doesn't have, you know, a wireless router. we rely on the internet. >> that's right. >> can anything internet based really be hack proof? >> not hack proof, no. there's some definite things that you can do to make them more, you know -- less prone to attack. i think that's what you're looking at here is especially what the gentleman said, that he

was able to hack through the router. from there gain access to the camera. it sounded like there was some insecurities on the actual systems them zblefs so what do we need to do? give me those examples where we protect our baby monitors or what have you. >> sure. one thing to note is that these cameras are very sensitive. you can literally hear a cat meow from five rooms away. they're very capable of listening to things inside the house, not just the room that they're at. you want to make sure that you protect these. first thing, make sure the access point has a really strong encryption on it. two types of encryption which is wpa and wpa 2. those are wireless protocols that secure your communications back and forth so that if someone were to try to attack it, they wouldn't necessarily have access to it. the second is to do a complex pass phrase or a complex password. >> not just 1, 2, 3, 4. >> not just 1234, no. you want to change it. that's the first thing i'm going to guess as a bad guy.

i'm not a bad guy. >> i hear ya. >> those are things i would change. do a 12 character password or above. the longer it is, the harder it is to crack. you can introduce things like says, make sentences like i walk down the park with an exclamation point. it's very complex if you incorporate spaces. those things can help out. >> so helpful. quickly. >> the last thing is change all the default passwords. whenever you get these things and you buy them, they come with default passwords. log into them and change the passwords away from admin admin or admin 12345. that will make sure you have a tight network. >> helpful. they want to monitor their babies, not have them looked into. we'll put it on the brooke blog. david kennedy, thank you so much. appreciate that. >> appreciate it. he's the man who will bury bodies, collected cash for mob boss whitey bulger.

now kevin weeks is revealing specific information about whitey bulger and why he turned on his one-timonen tore and what he says about after this one time when a woman was killed might give you the chills. >> do you ever think of the look on debby hessey's face? >> no. >> do you remember the look? >> not really. >> do you remember bulger and how he reacted after? >> he laid down and went to sleep. ahhh let's leave the deals to hotels.com. perfect! yep, and no angry bears. up to 30% off. only at hotels.com.

to boston we go where james whitey bulger has been convicted on 31 of those 32 federal counts against him including racketeering, extorsion. and one of the government's witnesses was kevin weeks, one of bulger's closest associates when they were running that organized crime game. cnn's deborah feyerick sat down with him. >> reporter: as whitey bulger's mob enforcer, kevin weeks said he buried the bodies, collected the cash which bookmakers and businesses paid to stay in

business. weeks was one of the government's eye witnesses. last month he came face to face with his one-time crime partner. >> he wasn't the same guy i knew. i mean, he was a lot older but his -- he had no life in his eyes. he was subdued. he had changed. he had just kind of lost his spark. >> reporter: weeks turned against his former boss after learning bulger, who ran a murderous criminal enterprise for 20 years, had spent much of that time as a government informant, the kind of man bulger always referred to as a rat. during the trial weeks and bulger cursed each other after a defense question about weeks' role and his regrets. >> basically what he asked me is, he says, you have no regrets in life. nothing bothers you. i said, you know what bothered me. i said, we killed five people. he said, that bothered you? no. i said we killed people for being rats and i have the two biggest rats right next to me.

>> reporter: bulger's lawyers argued steve phlegmy killed two women. he testified he saw bulger strangling her. >> jimmy jumped out and strangled her. he killed her. she was brought downstairs and ultimately buried. >> reporter: do you ever think of the look on debby hussey's face? >> no. >> reporter: do you remember the look? >> not really. >> reporter: do you remember bulger and how he reacted after? >> he laid down and went to sleep. >> reporter: why? >> he always did. he was nice and relaxed. >> reporter: in december 1994 bulger fled south boston after a corrupt fbi agent tipped him off the feds were closing in. after a worldwide man hunt, bulger was finally arrested in santa monica, california, in 2011. >> reporter: whitey bulger stood up and said he didn't get a fair trial, it was a sham, he had

been given immunity by a corrupt prosecutor. what do you think of that? >> i'll equaquate it to this. he got a fairer trial than the people we killed. >> reporter: do you think jim bulger ever lies awake at night thinking about the people he allegedly killed or he killed. >> i think he lies awake at night thinking of the people he should have killed and didn't kill. >> reporter: if jim bulger were sitting across from you right now -- >> right. >> -- what would you want to say to him? >> nothing, i'd have to shoot him because he would be trying to shoot me if he was sitting right there right now. >> reporter: deborah feyerick, cnn. deborah is still in boston talking to one of the jurors who convicted jurors yesterday. we'll play that for you at the top of the hour. meantime, how would you like to win powerball? 16 people have. these 16 co-workers, they have dubbed themselves the ocean 16.

they are about to receive some pretty enormous checks here once they go splitsies. they'll each get about $3.8 million. zain asher is there in the room where i'm sure the anticipation is mounting. 3.8 million bucks. not too shabby. >> not too shabby. huge amount of money. the press conference has literally just started. you hear people very excited downstreet. i'm waiting for the lottery winners to come on the stage. the formula is going to be an introduction and then a question and answer session from the lottery winners. and the past four days have been a huge -- hugely turbulent. they've been desperately trying to maintain their privacy. today is all about coming forward, showing their faces to the world and moving on with their lives. this time last week they were making roughly $35,000 a year. now they're making -- now they're going to get a check for roughly $3.8 million in just

one. they haven't seen the money. powerball takes some time to collect all the money. in the meantime, they are going to be planning how they're going to be spending the cash. they'll do some financial planning. i am told that six of these winners were affected by hurricane sandy so this will be hugely important for them. one thing i find quite interesting, a lot of these people have no immediate plans to quit their jobs. i spoke to one of the lottery winners on friday. he said he planned to continue working until the end of the year. >> zain, i'm going to need you to speak up because i'm having a hard time hearing you over some of the round of applause. can you tell me what's going on right now? are these the winners right there on the stage? >> yes. you can actually see all 16 of them sitting on the stage. we're waiting to be introduced to them. right now we're seeing a lottery official talking, giving a brief introduction to the winners. then we'll receive answers from the winners. they'll tell us their life's

story. we'll ask them some questions. literally waiting right now for that to happen. >> so as we continue to wait, let me go back to one of the points you were just making, the fact that several of these -- here we go. here is ocean 16 number one. let's listen. >> i can't think of any other group i would rather be with. this is an awesome group. we are truly blessed for what we've received. it's just been great. i think i speak for all of us, i want to thank our director, mr. james pine. when we found out on thursday that we were the winners, it was a little bit of roller coaster ride and his leadership and direction kept us all focused and kept us protected from everyone out there that we didn't want to see right away. we are really blessed. we want to thank everyone for all their support, our families, everyone out there. on a personal note, i'd like to say a personal thank you. this is for a gentleman i used

to work with from the air national guard. i want to thank him for providing me with this opportunity to be at this point in my career. thank you. cheers, everyone. >> i know you want to ask questions, but i want to introduce someone else who's here today. i want to introduce the manager of the acme store. he'd like to say a couple of words. matt. >> so real fast, great job, lisa. look forward to seeing you in the acme again. >> hear, hear. >> so have the associates. it's been busy in the last week. the lottery lines have gotten longer and longer. importantly your winning ticket enabled acme markets to give back to the community. not only have you won, the food bank in tucker ton and local organizations we've been donating to in the last couple of weeks have been the real winners. being in the company for 32 years and the company being in

tuckerton for 47 years and seeing what happened with superstorm sandy last year, it couldn't happen to a better group of people. congratulations. best of luck. and god bless. thank you. >> thanks, matt. each store that sells a winning powerball or a mega millions ticket gets a $30,000 bonus commission. the super stop and shop received their $30,000 commission and made an announcement last week that they were using funds to support their favorite charity, and it's nice to hear that not only does the lottery do good works with the revenue that it earns to support state education and institutions, but even our beneficiaries and retailers continue the good works. with that, i'll open this up for some questions. i think there might be some questions that you might want to ask of some of our group. i know one question that everybody had was lisa buying the ticket at the acme.

lisa, can you tell us why you bought the tickets there that day or where do you usually buy snem is everybody thank youing you for buying that ticket at that time? >> they are. >> can you come to the microphone for a minute? >> thank you. thank you. honestly, i went to acme that day to pick up our group tickets because i needed to pick up my prescriptions from the pharmacy and i needed to pick up a few things for dinner. so acme it was. >> do you guys always buy tickets together as a group? >> as a group? not always. when the jackpot gets big. we only -- we play when the jackpot gets big. >> how many times in the past have you all gone in together approximately? >> guys? >> six years. >> quite a few years. five, six. >> are there some people that

work in the same division who did not opt to go in with you? >> they're all -- it's the same group. we're the same group. >> let me just mention that when i spoke with brian mccarthy the other day and talked about the pool, i asked him about the pool members because we always get advice that people should know who's in the pool, they ought to write their names down, make copies of the front and back before the draw so everybody knows how many tickets were purchased and what tickets they are. brian told me that's exactly what they do. they did everything right. they knew who was in their pool. they had a list. they all had copies of the tickets so they were able to check right away and know they were winners. >> is anyone going to retire now?

ask you come up to the mic? >> that's what happens when you raise your hand. >> joseph odowardo. >> joe, tell us what your thinking is here. >> it's just a miracle and shocking and after 34 years and almost retiring last year, this happens and you just don't have another choice. >> barbara, would you come up and talk a little bit about your father's efforts to start the lottery? >> this is truly a miracle, and i lost both my parents in a very

short period of time in the last two years of each other. when we actually hit this lottery i -- not even in my mind did i remember my father was the father of the lottery. when i called my sister to tell her she said, oh, my gosh, barb, dad is just smiling down. she said, it's his lottery. i said, oh, my god. because your mind is just everywhere else but my father was bigger than life. he was always my hero. i couldn't ask for a better dad and i wish he was here to share in the moment. the only thing i wanted to do that next morning was pick up the phone and call him and call my mom and then i realized i couldn't do that but this is a real special moment and i thank you all. >> god bless america.

>> when i met barbara the other day and found out she was john brown's daughter, the two of us were brought to tears thinking about just what kind of fate is it that brings it together like this? i can't explain it. some people would say he was smiling down from heaven and i believe that. i think one of our other members, willie, wanted to say something. >> yeah, willie. will. >> my fellow americans -- this is my best outfit. as most of you all know, it's not there but a tornado went through the town where i lived. i was out on the fire truck so i was a little late getting here

today. and i met with barb. i lost my mom to cancer and my dad's going through it right now and i -- that was the first place where i stopped was pop's house. started crying in front of him and told him i loved him and you've got nothing to worry about now except getting better, so we're a happy bunch of group. we're a very, happy, happy, happy as some of my friends would say. we've got some great camping at bakers acres campground down by the shore. i had to plug that in. i'm just going to continue watching nascar racing on sunday. maybe i'll be at my log cabin on multiple acres of land and i don't want to be -- i could stay up here and talk to y'all. i didn't do it. >> you've got to pay for it. >> i think i can afford it. maybe put air conditioning in here. i would just like to thank everybody.

everybody's been so overwhelming to us all and it's just happy, happy, happy. thank you. >> so before we totally destroy the equipment -- >> is anyone quitting their job? >> willie! >> that's a real good possibility. >> any other victims of sandy? >> yes. who are the victims of hurricane sandy that had property damage? sue did? >> would someone be able to come to the miblg? >> hi. >> what's your name? >> darlene. >> last name? riccio. >> spell that. >> r-i-c-c-i-o.

we lost our home in the storm. i didn't own it, i was renting. now i stayed with my brother for a few months and got a little apartment above a store front so the first thing i'm going to do is buy me and my daughter a home and bring my dog back home. >> emotionally what has that been like for you? losing everything and suddenly getting it back. >> oh, i don't even have words to explain. when i found out that we won, i was just -- i was speechless. i thought they were joking with me and i thought it was the worst joke ever. i even woke up in the morning just assuming we just didn't win. yeah. i'm still in shock, yeah. >> you go from being very unlucky to one of the luckiest people on the planet. that's got to be incredible. >> it has been an extremely rough year since then, but i

did -- when we lost everything, this whole group here and everybody that i worked with really pulled together and helped me through and so, i mean, this has been like a great family for me. >> yeah. >> are you going to stick around? >> oh, yeah, we have a bond now. we definitely -- >> first party's at my cabin. >> what town was your house in? >> in brick. >> have you had any difficulty like with insurance or, you know, getting grants from the government? has it been difficult to get any money to help out? >> well, i didn't even my house so i didn't -- i mean, i don't really have anything to say for that. >> can somebody fetell the stor of who actually had the ticket, how quickly did you all realize you won. >> who had the ticket? >> okay. so we just had to indulge for a couple of minutes.

how often do you hear co workers, 16 co-workers who all work at the ocean county vehicle maintenance department in new jersey all, you know, put in some money in this office pool. how many of us plunk down the ten bucks every blue moon and they actually won. once you have done the math, each of these people walk home after taxes each with a check of just about 3.8 million bucks. you heard the woman talking who bought the ticket. she went to a pharmacy. she needed to pick up a prescription. we're always told to do this when you go into a lottery pool, make copies of the tickets. make sure you get all the names and they did exactly that. they say they're all going back to work. we shall see. as they say, you've got to play to win. quick break. back in just a moment. alert.

the beach on your tv is much closer than it appears. dive into labor day with up to 50% off hotels at travelocity. huge story out of california. california officially the first state to pass a law giving ground breaking new rights to transgender students. like the freedom to choose which school bathroom, which locker room you want to use and which sports teams he or she may join just based on which gender a boy or a girl chooses to identify with. and a lot of transgender

students, they see this as a huge win. >> i'm transgender myself and i had to miss classes and programs because of my identity. no student should have to lie about themselves in order to get all the credits they need to graduate. >> thing is, some parents aren't convinced. they're worried about the law's impact on their own kids. >> she will be at a k-8 school. she could potentially have a 14-year-old boy walking in on her in the bathroom. i don't understand how we're protecting all of the children. >> let's talk about this with two guests joining me. people following this very closely. mason davis is the executive director of a transgender law center. favors the law. joins me from san francisco. good to see you, sir. randy thomason is on the other side. save california. gentleman, welcome to both of you. huge, huge win for your camp. randy, i'd like to begin with you because i imagine this

doesn't thrill you, and my first question really is looking ahead. what steps might you, your group take to challenge this? >> well, this is very disturbing to parents who are hearing about it. they thought that the school bathrooms for girls would be protected from buyiological boy. they did not expect girls baseba basketball teams to allow boys to be on it. we are denying sexual boundaries and personal privacy at the school campus. parents have told us on our facebook and elsewhere that this is making them think they're going to exit the public system permanently because not only this, there are nine other sexual indoctrination laws in california government schools. this is just the cherry on the cake unfortunately. >> mason, how do you respond to that from randy and from other parents? >> well, yesterday was a big step for equality.

this is a very simple bill that makes sure transgender students have access to the facilities that they need. i have been struck by the number of parents i've talked to, especially the parents of transgender youth, that are so concerned that their youth are not graduating in time because they don't have some place to change for gimenez clasym class. randy, let me ask you this question in a more personal way. i don't know if you have kids. if you were to have a little girl and this little girl grew up like a boy, identified with boys, wants to play football, wants to use the boys bathroom but can't, how would you handle that child? >> well, if a child is sexually confused they need professional counseling. lots of children are being molested in america. lots of children are being abandoned by one or the other parents and that cree asds a problem with the child's

expectations and their mind. a child that's sexually confused, they need professional counseling. my opponent is saying this is a rights issue. what about the rights of a child to be comfortable in the bathroom. what about the rights of several children. this is trampling the rights of everyone else. last time i checked the 1964 civil rights act said you have to have inmutable characteristic. if you are changing away from your xx chromosome or xy chromosome, your natural gends der, if you're changing away using the scalpel of a doctor, that is not deserving of a civil right. >> we could have an entire kfrgs. in fact, i have on what these kids and counseling and who believes in that. mason i see a big smile. i want to end with you. final thoughts and just respond to that. >> you know, i know that not everybody in america has had a chance to get to know a

transgender person. these youth know who they are. they want to be successful and be part of the school community like everybody else. as a transgender person myself, i want to make sure that the youth are able to be safe and successful as youth and adults and this bill is a logical next step to help make sure that happened. we believe in the privacy of everybody. to the extent this facilitates more privacy for all students in school, that's a great thing. still ahead, have you ever heard of a rooftop garden, programs? let me tell you, you have never seen one quite like this. it has people underneath it, especially in the top floors. frightened, moving away. how did it get there and how is it about to go away? that's coming up next.

when we think of communism, as in communist run china, we think of lots of rules, lots of forms, lots of government types ensuring that everything is just exactly so. so in beijing a lot of folks are wondering how the heck ayman got permission to build his dream garden in the most unusual place. david mckenzie has the story. >> reporter: this building is causing a firestorm on social media here in china. a chinese traditional medicine professor has built just

enormous structure on top of his apartment. for years residents have complained to building management and beyond and they got nowhere. they said that there are cracks forming in the building. the structure of rock and trees could be a serious hazard, they said, but so far nothing has been done. with so many building violations, how could someone get away with this? well, one answer might be that he rec cons he's an influential member of the communist party so many people believe he would be untouchable. >> translator: you can only do this if you have connections. without connections you can't get away from it. it will if you look at it, it's very scary. things mike fall into the road. it's not just one person's problem, it's everyone's problem. it will he probably didn't ask anyone's permission. he probably just did it so that's why he got away with it. >> reporter: reached out to by a beijing new hampshire, the professor said he might bring it down and that he's, quote, a low

aim brooke baldwin. now to an exclusive interview you will only see here on cnn. our correspondent deborah fa feyerick. she is in boston. she sat down with one of the jurors. that jury just yesterday found bulger guilty of 31 of those 32 counts he was facing including involvement in multiple murders. i want you to hear now what juror number 12 told deborah as far as the trial now being over. >> the challenging parts were the testimonies themselves often in that you had people that were criminals giving testimony that took plea agreements so you weren't sure what you could believe or what you couldn't believe and some of the acts especially, that's all we had was the testimony of these individuals and trying to find a testimony outside of that

sometimes was difd and would have been the reason for some of the not provens. we just didn't have enough. >> so is it fair to say that aside from the testimony there was no supporting evidence of any kind? >> in some cases, definitely, yes. >> was it diftd for you as a juror to mark not proved on some of the murders? >> on a couple of them. no, i guess i have to say it the other way. >> okay. so how would you describe it? because there were 19 murders. >> right. >> you found enough evidence on 11, not enough on 7 and one no finding. >> no finding. some of them i -- they probably were divided half and half in a very real sense as far as half of us having trouble with testimony and the other half not having so much trouble with it. so, you know, holding out and trying to say, well, can you say proven without reasonable -- i mean, can you really say that without reasonable doubt?

and it got down to that a lot for us, and we would hash that back and forth until, you know, one side or the other would say, well, yeah, yeah, i guess i can see that. so, you know, we all were giving and taking and communicating and trying to come together on it as often as possible and with only the one no finding, i thought that was quite remarkable, you know? so we're glad the judge was happy with that and didn't send us back. >> juror number 12 sitting down exclusively with deborah feyerick. it took them five days to reach the verdict. the sentencing phase for whitey bulger begins november 13th. he faces life in prison. now to an update on that huge sinkhole that swallowed part of the resort complex in disney world, florida, the security guard who led dozens of guests to safety is now being hailed a hero. no one was injured despite what

you're looking at. they had near minutes to run. guard richard shandley only had minutes to get them out of there safely. >> i just thought about myself. >> reporter: how did it begin? tell us that. >> i was driving down the street and flagged down by a guest telling me they had a problem, they were hearing popping and cracking noises in the building and then i heard glass shattering from the second and third stores. >> reporter: so as a security officer, you're thinking what? >> a fight. >> reporter: a fight in the building? >> a fight. then i hear people saying, hey, we've got a problem, the building is falling apart. i could see the building coming down in pieces. >> reporter: you start to see it sink? >> yes. >> reporter: did you know it a sinkhole?

>> no, i did not. >> what were you thinking? >> i had no understanding, know reason of lying why it was happening. >> yes, i did. >> reporter: what did you do? >> i went door to door making sure people were safe. i went floor to floor and god everybody out. at the time i got everybody done i didn't think about it, i got them out and got myself out. >> reporter: we have to remind people, it was late at night. >> no, sir, there was people sleeping in rooms. i physically had to wake them up and get them out of the building. >> reporter: what was their reaction? >> that he thought i was kidding. they thought it was a joke. i said, this is no joke. they looked out and they got devastated. i took them out each end of the stair wells. i wasn't going to let them come out to the breezeway. don't worry about grabbing your stuff, just get out. >> right now engineers are checking the rest of the property to make sure it's safe. the resort is about 10 miles in

block the planned merger of american airlines and u.s. airways. alison kosik is live for us now, there she is, at the new york stock exchange. ali alison, what's different with this one? >> what's different is the economy. the landscape is very different. the delta united deals happened right after the resex session. the automakers were getting a bailout, banks were going under and airlines were going under. the thinking was airlines have to merge to survive. even though american is bankrupt, it can still emerge from bankruptcy without u.s. air. the d oj has filed a lawsuit. they're saying consumers, if this goes through, will be paying higher airfares, higher fees and have fewer choices.

if this goes through, it's kind of interesting to think about just how the landscape has changed so much, brooke. back in 2001 there were ten airlines. if this one goes we'd be left with four major kraers, delta, northwest, a combined delta. if you look at washington reagan national airport, the american u.s. air deal, if that merged, that airline, it would control about 70%, 70% of all takeoff and landing slots just at that one airport. brooke? >> so then does american, does u.s. air want this? what's next? >> that's what they're doing. american and. s. air is vowing to launch a vigorous defense. they are putting out a joint statement saying blocking this will deny customers more choices. there is another option here.

the government could get on board if american and u.s. airways make concessions. if they give up some of their routes 6789 it made the carrier drop some spots from philly to london to make room for competition. what everybody thought was a done deal isn't. the deal has to go through the whole regulatory process. you're seeing investors shaking a little bit. u.s. airways stock is down 10%. >> allyson, thank you very much. the father of ayman who fell to his death is saying the stadium has an engineering flaw. we have a picture of the young victim. here he is. 29-year-old ronald homer. he was 6'6".

it was last night as a lengthy rain delay. this is the stadium parking lot. it's reserved for the players themselves. police have called it, i'm quoting here, apparently accidental. keep in mind, this is not the first fatal fall at a major league park. ba being in 2011 there was a fall in the ballpark in arlington at texas prompting the texas range be gers to raise the height of their stadium's rales. ronald homer's father is saying that the rales at turner field are too low. homer fell from an exterior rail, not one that actually faced the ball field. let's talk about this. attorney steven addleman is a venue safety expert. let's confirm up front, while

tragic, accidents happen, are ball parks, arenas, coliseums, are they doing all they can to make the venues safe especially when it comes to the railing? >> are they doing all they can? there's always more that can be done. i think the question is are they doing what they should be doing given the way fans behave normally inside their buildings. now we look at what happened inside turner field. that man wasn't facing the ball field. immediately we have something different that distinguishes it from the rangers ballpark in arlington in 2011. >> so you appropriately point out that this was a different

location, right? go ahead. the issue is what? >> the issue really is are the railings sufficiently high given the way fans are reasonably foreseeable to behave in the traditional uses for that ballpark? so we can start off with the obvious. we know that the railings meet code. code is the international building code and we can be 100% confident that every railing at turner field meets code. that's a minimum standard. given the way fans behave that at certain areas of the ballpark that serna digs nal railing height is appropriate. based on the photographs that i've seen, it appears the railing near where this man fell was greater than the 36 inch railing height requirement for that part of the ballpark. so i think what can fairly be

said at turner field, they're already doing more than they're required to. >> wow. >> the analysis is are they behaving reasonably given what people ordinarily do in that space? >> quickly let me ask you this. this victim was 6'6". would the height have a bearing? >> sure it would. your center of body mass is higher when you're tall so railings have to balance the need to keep people safe with the obvious need to preserve sight lines. that, of all, is what gets people to go to the ballpark instead of sitting at home in their living room from watching it on tv. the taller one is, the higher their center of gravity is, the more they have to be careful not to lean too far over. >> awful. my heart goes out to the family. the game is still on tonight against the phillies. steven adelman, thank you so much. coming up next, u.s.

covered by ground units and make sure that we determined for sure if it was or was not them. because they were spotted so quickly, everybody was kind of taken off guard. we were really trenching ourselves in for a long, drawn out search. >> let me go straight to san diego. casey wyand, you have been all over this story. as we're learning more about how she was found, what about the week she was missing? have you learned any details about that? >> well, i can tell you this, brooke. one of the questions on a lot of people's mind about this week-long man hunt is, you know, the search for james mi dimaggio and hannah anderson, a lot of people have been wondering whether she was simply a kidnapping victim or something else. the sheriff in san diego county has provided a very definitive answer to that question. >> i want to emphasize that during the law enforcement interviews with hannah, it became very clear to us, very clear that she is a victim in

every sense of the word in this horrific crime. from the time of her abduction in boulevard to her recovery in idaho by the fbi's hostage rescue team, she was under extreme, extreme duress. >> meanwhile, hannah is back here in the san diego area with her family. her father speaking out to reporters and here's what he had to say about what she's going through. >> the healing process will be slow. she has been through a tremendous, horrific ordeal. i am very proud of her and i love her very much. she is surrounded by the love of her family, friends and community. again, please as a family, give us our time to heal and grieve. >> part of that healing and grieving process, something that no 16-year-old should ever have to endure. hannah we understand is now helping to plan the funeral of her mother and younger brother,

outspoken than others. lots of emotion, lots of excitement. we even saw one person shedding tears. talented about what life has been like since hurricane sandy. one woman said she'll buy a house. another woman said she lost her father to cancer so she believed in some way, shape or form these wings were her father smiling down on her. take a listen to what some of the winners had to say. >> my fellow americans. >> i just wanted -- this is my best outfit but as most of you all know, it's not there yet but a tornado went through the town where i live. i was in the fire truck. >> i was just renting, i didn't own it. we lived there for five years, me and my daughter so now i stayed with my brother for a few months. the fergs thing i'm goings to

do, i'll bring my daughter home and bring my dog back home. >> just a miracle, shocking. after 34 years and almost retiring last year, this happens. and you just don't have another choice. >> reporter: there you have it. so much excitement. for the first time, this is really interesting. we heard what thursday morning was like for these guys when they finally found out they had won all of this money. a woman named lisa had piblgd all of the numbers. everyone put in $6 apiece. she checked the news and she realized that the powerball number was number 32 and she looked at it and she thought, huh, that's familiar. she realized she had chosen 32. she went through all the tickets and she began to shake as she realized she had a ticket with all six numbers matching. then she went into the next room. she woke up her poor husband,

call from someone else on campus that the authorities were looking at them after these items had been thrown out, they maintained they didn't really know what these items were all about and that the fbi had been looking for them. when the fbi showed up at their apartment, that they were as surprised and scared as anyone and maintain that they cooperated fully with the fbi. brooke. so if they are convicted, what kind of prison time are we talking here, susan? >> right. obviously the government wholly digs disagrees, which is why they face such serious charges of obstruction of justice and getting rid of evidence. if found guilty, they face 20 years in prison and possible deportation. whether they have asked for or been offered any kind of plea deal to ask for simply deportation. obviously they said they would like to be proven not guilty but they're prepared to leave the

country and would accept deportation if that's what it came to. >> susan candiotti, thank you. want to stay in boston and talk about some daffodils. yellow daffodils will line the route from the boston marathon from hop king ton to boston. they want thousands of bulbs in the ground. diane valley formed a group marathon daffodils. she joins me from boston. diane, i love this idea. tell me why daffodils. >> well, daffodils are yellow and they're the symbol of hope and spring and they bloom just about the time of the marathon. we had done a daffodil day before the marathon bombing and it was such an innocent and sweet event. we thought it would be a lovely thing to plant daffodils from hopkington to boston and try to lift all of the people involved in the marathon. >> so lovely.

you a claim of relief. there was another claim where there was a white employee who supported affirmative action. fired. you have a claim. here they said the claims were not within this person's zone of interest so they aren't necessarily saying that paula deen didn't do these things, not her herself, her place of employment, they were saying this person didn't have a specific interest to them and wasn't discriminated against herself, white or black, and as a result of that those claims would go by the way side. final point is that the other claims regarding a hostile work environment, the whole sexual charged nature of it, whether or not they were doing things and talking about pornography. >> that's still there. >> that still exists and they'll pass judgment on that at some future time. >> given everything that joey jackson just said, peter, let me bring your voice into this. the last time we talked you were ticking on things that the fallen empire, the food network show, the sponsors, cookbook deal falling through. if i recall, you said she kind of needs to go away for a little while. >> yes. >> given what we've learned

today, is the damage done? >> changes nothing. >> okay. >> while some of the lawsuit might have been dismissed, the fact of the matter is this doesn't take away from the fact that she still said this under her own admission. it's not like all of a sudden she's not a racist. she still said this and it's still not okay as far as advertisers are concerned. again, the case in point stays clear. she needs to go away but she needs to do it in a very interesting way. she needs to pull a spitzer and not a weiner. >> do explain. >> by all means. there's logic. spitzer went away. we didn't hear hide nor hair. he came back apologetic. here's how i screwed up. this is what i'm doing. weiner first of all never went away initially, blamed everyone else in the world. he did nothing wrong. i am the best there is. you guys are all screwing up, it's your fault, not mine. when he came back a year later, we weren't ready to forgive. if paula deen goes away and does some volunteer work, we have a

short attention span and we are willing to forget, but right now a pop souffle does not do it. >> pull a spitzer and not a weiner. >> i do agree. very good analysis, by the way. >> okay. so the damage is done for now. go away. come back, mia culpa and she can maybe regain some of what she lost. >> pleasure. appreciate it. we are minutes away from "the lead" here in washington. jake tapper. here we go. back to jake. i understand you fakeout, but i'm back. i understand you have finished this interview with the innocence of muslim filmmaker. he was initially blamed for the uproar that led to benghazi, led to the attack september 11th on that compound. tell me about the interview. >> well, it's interesting. first of all even though it's clear that his film had nothing

to do with the terrorist attack on the compounds in benghazi, he still was found guilty just a few days after that attack last september, found guilty of violating the terms of his parole from a previous time he had trouble with the law. he's been in jail until this month and now we are having the first tv interview with him. he talks about why he was jailed. he talks about all sorts of issues. i also asked him about the fact that he makes these movies that are interpreted as being anti-muslim. here's a little bit of his response. >> my movies are not a religion movie, it's political more than religion. i never speak against any religion. i have a muslim friends. i am against the terrorism culture. i am against the terrorism culture. >> he's a christian from egypt. in egypt, brooke, christians are

discriminated against, repressed really by the leaders there. so he says that's what was motivating his film. he has strong opinions about president obama, secretary of state hillary clinton, the obama administration and it will be right at the top of our show coming up. >> sounds pretty compelling, jake tapper. we will see you and be tuned in 12 minutes and counting. tapper, thank you very much. two young bartenders from the u.k. arrested in peru with 25 pounds of cocaine stamped in their luggage. they're in big, big trouble. they say they didn't know it was there. that's next.

cleric who seemed to poof, appear at this crash scene, just as a critically injured woman asked to pray. >> myself and one of the other firefighters beside me, we very plainly heard that we should remain calm, that our tools would now work and that we would get her out of that vehicle. >> we're looking for the priest, you know, whether it was just a priest as an angel, serving as an angel or an actual angel that came in and wearing the priestly attire. >> so those were the accounts after the crash now. roja maples, khqa, talked to the priest who said it's just part of the job. >> the regular priest was sick on the morning of sunday august 4th. that's when he approached the accident scene on missouri 19.

he said he was already inside the blockade before authorities started blocking traffic. he waited until it was possible to drive up closer to the scene, parked behind a large vehicle, walked up to a member of the royals county sheriff's department and asked if he could approach the scene. father dowling says he never plans to drive away from an emergency roadblock or no roadblock. >> if i were in an accident and a priest -- i heard that a priest drove by, i would get him for that, that he would pass by the scene of an accident and leave me at death's door without stopping to help. up do it. you do it. you offer your services. as a periest because you have te
