case. cnn's margaret connelly has more, what was the break in the case? what led to this? >> don, there were extraordinary developments we heard in a case tonight that was over two decades old. commissioner kelly named the man who admitted to killing the 4-year-old girl who has been known for all of these years, all 22 years as baby hope. his name is conrado juarez, he was involved in the killing with his sister who is now deceased. the other big name, baby hope, police detectives gave her that name, now they know her real name. angelica castillo. and this has been a journey for a lot of the detectives in the squad. they're the one whose gave baby hope her name. they gave her a face from a

computer rendering from her skull. and they also paid for her funeral out of their own pocket. now, this killing was extremely gruesome in that this 4-year-old's body was found in a cooler. it was folded over, tied, and she had been sexually abused. the detectives told us that if we ever saw a picture of her body, we would never forget it. and i did see it. and they're right. don. >> yeah. so listen, i just want to give you a little bit more information, margaret as we sit here and get more details. because that press conference, if not just wrapped up is still going on. police commissioner ray kelly said it happened in astoria, queens, back in 1991, she was born at elmhurst hospital in 19197, she was in astoria,

queens, he saw the young lady, conrado juarez, also known as edino juarez, and sexually assaulted her. when her body went lifeless, his sister advised him to put her in the cooler. she went and got the cooler. wrapped her in plastic, put her in the cooler. and then together they took a black livery cab to manhattan and then carried it between them as if nothing had happened and then dropped it off near the henry hudson parkway where the construction workers found her body inside of that cooler. let's listen now to an assistant from the new york city police department and then you and i will talk, margaret. >> i can sum up my feelings in three words, i'm very proud. i'm proud of this department, i'm proud of the detectives. i'm very happy, elated, and certainly, i'm relieved for the fact that when we visited this

plot now we can now attach a name to this little girl. >> and that name now is angelica castillo. angelica castillo, 4 years old from queens, born april, 1997 at elmhurst hospital. and as you said, this became very personal to the detectives there. they gave her the name, baby hope. they paid for the funeral arrangements and even gave her a face through a computer rendering that they sent out trying to identify who she was and trying to solve this case. >> as you say, very, very personal, that plaque you see right there, the identity was still unknown, when i talked to them they could not wait to take the plaque down, they knew they were close, they wanted to contact baby hope's mom. they wanted to keep the plaque there but underneath it, they wanted to set here real name in

stone. >> and margaret, i want to talk to you about this. because the commissioner talked about how they got to this point. they're saying there was a crime stoppers tip recently, and an anonymous phone call which led them to conrado juarez, when they confronted him just yesterday at work, first they went to his house in the bronx, and i believe they said it was his wife who said he was not at home at the time. and that he was at work. so then they went to his work place and confronted him. and then he admitted to the sexual assault of this baby. so talk to us about how this came about. from the crime stoppers tip to the anonymous phone call to the exhuming of her body to finding mr. juarez. >> right, these detectives, they deserve a lot of credit. the two detectives we saw speak at the press conference, they have been working on the case from day one. the assistant chief actually came back from vacation when the story broke, he came back, and

he has been on the case since then. he has a picture of the baby hope grave site on his desk. but what broke the case was in july, the police blitzed the media, they tried to get the name out. it was the anniversary, and something triggered a woman hearing -- several years ago, she remembered hearing a woman tell her that she thought her sister had been killed by her parents. that eventually made that way to the police. the police were able to track down baby hope's sister. >> all right, margaret connelly in new york, thank you very much, we appreciate your reporting, when we get more on this story, we'll bring it to you on cnn. but the breaking news is there is breaking news on the baby hope case, she went missing in 1991, her lifeless body found in a cooler in new york city, 22 years in the making.

now a culmination in the case, and maybe some resolution, after we hear more about this suspect, conrado juarez, who has been arrested, 52 years old, of the bronx. meanwhile, more news to tell you about. the house of representatives taking a break, you heard me right. 12 days into this budget battle that is keeping the federal employees home from work and government offices locked, most house members decided to make a trip home for the columbus holiday. that means the house is in recess until noon monday, and only senators are doing anything toward breaking the standoff. and just a few minutes ago, the senate majority leader harry reid left the white house after he and three fellow democratic leaders spent more than an hour with the president. reid says he is cordially negotiating with them on the way to get the u.s. government back in business.

straight ahead to the white house, and cnn's brianna keeler, tell me about the meeting between the president and senate democratic leaders and what is the white house saying about it, if anything? >> the white house really is not saying much about it. we know from their perspective, it was a good meeting. they're talking about what they're going to do going forward. we just got a readout from the senate democratic leadership aide. the meeting was productive. not surprising, all democrats in the room. they compared notes and reviewed options. listen to this, their conclusion that was while democrats remained united, the republicans have yet to coalesce. they agreed that in the coming days their position -- or they should really continue to be discussing with senate republican leaders, but their position remains the same. the democrats are willing to negotiate on anything that republicans want to discuss, and here is the big thing. as soon as we reopen the government and pay our bills.

so really, back to square one here. it is the white house and senate democrats saying we will talk to you. but first raise the debt ceiling, reopen the government. or we're not going to talk. so it is really sort of -- they're sort of digging in. and it is really a hard line that they're taking here on this weekend where we've seen the white house and democrats dismiss a house republican plan. a plan from some senate republicans. but we also saw vote fail in the senate, don, which would have been a clean extension of the debt ceiling beyond the mid-term elections. >> meanwhile, brianna, people are not getting paid, they're furloughed. there are parts of the government shut down, parks, monuments, a couple of states are using their money to keep the monuments open. like the grand canyon, lady liberty, so we're back at square one, the senate will have a session tomorrow obviously with just one thing on the agenda.

so what can senators do tomorrow to influence a house when they come back to work? >> well, really, and that is just the point, don. i think more than anything this is not even about what all senators can do. it is really between senate majority harry reid and mitch mcconnell, we'll wait to see if they come up with a framework of the deal that might be palatble to senate republicans. that is the deal there. of course will the house republicans accept it? the thinking is, it is called jamming, as you get closer to a deadline, one chamber can jam the government, if you can get momentum and push them to take something up they may ultimately have no choice other than sort of swallowing whatever the senate puts out. or they may just you know, then we would see a default. and so that is really the tough choice, ultimately, we could be

seeing the house make or certainly house republican leaders make. >> no default. we don't want to default because the economy is just starting to get better. we do not need that, brianna keeler, so fingers crossed. appreciate it, brianna, thank y you. >> i want to tell you tomorrow on the state of the union, kentucky senator rand paul has been very vocal, speaking to susan collins, of maine, she tried to come up with a bipartisan compromise. that was voted down, they will be on tomorrow 9:00 eastern and then again right here on cnn. so we're already feeling the effects of the shutdown. now, get ready to see the debt ceiling be reached in less than a week. how bad will it be? and what is it going to do to you? we're going to take a look at that. and he has become known simply

to what we can achieve. the standoff is in washington, but the shutdown is hurting americans all across the country and for all sorts of reasons, like in south dakota, an early blizzard caught ranchers off guard this week, killing as many as 20,000 cattle. well, the farm bill hung up in congress because of the shutdown, there is no money to help ranchers, some people lost everything and won't get any immediate help from washington. and the deadliest catch

could catch the brunt, the quotas are not being set, so the boats are stuck in harbor. >> on behalf of all fishermen, i'm asking congress to avoid the shutdown, i'm a small businessman with big bills and i need to go fishing. >> even if congress finds a way to open soon, it could be too late. those captains could find it over before they set out to sea. they will be denied brews because of the shutdown, beers need labels, and the feds have to approve them. officials need to give the okay to any nontraditional recipe, with the shutdown, that can't happen. that means beers can be launched, distributors can't sell them, and you cannot buy them, as well. this coming week, the economy could take another huge blow when we hit the debt ceiling, how bad will it be?

and what is it going to do to you? we're here to help answer that. she is a senior writer at cnn money, and joins us now with more. jean, no beer, no crab, i mean, that is my life. and many people's lives, that is what americans love. what is going on here. >> right, well, let's at least hope they end the shutdown, if they're going to end the debt ceiling, we'll need a lot of beer. here is what we're coming up against, the shutdown has hurt the economy by half a percentage point of gdp. it is not awful, we could get to one and one and a half points of gdp. which is real money, but if we go past the debt ceiling, if we go past october 17th, when we will hit the debt ceiling and the treasury will basically be left to pay the bills with cash and fumes, there is going to come a point in the next few weeks, where treasury runs short. it won't be able to pay all the

country's bills. i can assure you markets won't like that very much. your 401(k) could take a hit. stocks will probably be very, very volatile if they don't see some action in washington very soon that raises the debt ceiling. it is bad behavior on the part of congress, this is amateur money management to the end. >> i got so upset about the beer and crab, because listen, those are those guy's lively hoods, that is what we do on the weekends, we all deserve that. a senior writer at cnn money. jean, what about 401(k)s? are they going to take a hit? could people lose their jobs over this possibly? >> well, with the debt ceiling nobody knows what is going to happen, if we get past that point where treasury doesn't have enough cash to pay all the

bills. we've never done it before. we have the world's largest economy and we'll roll the dice. so the range of responses is wide. but independent economists, independent budget experts, constitutional investors, none of them think it will be a good result. they think it will be a bad result. the question is just how bad. the expectation is that the first response will be stocks. they will get very volatile. if the situation persists, right? so if it is just one day that treasury runs into this problem, all bets are going to be off. but that might be a lot more manageable than if this goes on a week or more. so what is going to happen is, it is very possible if stocks go crazy, people will run into the bond markets. or bond traders will not like the situation at all, even if the treasury is able to pay interest on u.s. debt which is what the people think treasury will try to do to the best of its ability. will they accept that segments

of american society are being told sorry, we can't pay you, the payments will be late. that will hurt the economy, how will the bond market respond? it is a big question mark. but the general response is nothing good is going to come of this. >> you're right, and people with money will run to the bond market, most of americans don't have that sort of money, that sort of leverage, and what they will do is they won't get paid, they will lose their jobs. 401(k)s will suffer, congress, you saw them leaving today, the big suvs with their drivers, thank you, we appreciate it. exclusively new details about the georgia death of a teen found, investigators say kendrick johnson's death was an accident, his parents say he was murdered and they can prove it. the shocking story you absolutely have to see, that is next.

[splash!] the death of kendrick johnson, was it an accident or something more sinister? tonight, we continue our reporting on this case trying to get at the truth of what happened to him. kendrick was a 17-year-old high school student in georgia, an athlete whose body was found in january in a rolled up gym. the investigators ruled the death a traffic accident, that while reaching for a sneaker, he got stuck and choked. an investigator reviewed the scene and said he believed

kendrick was a victim of foul play. the blood in the gym did not belong to ken drik, investigators say. and a sweat shirt found on the body which may have blood on the cuff, but the lab report indicated it was tested. an orange and black gym bag didn't belong to their son, but the parents say there was blood on the shoe. the investigators concluded that there were stains. the parents never believed an official conclusion and hired a private doctor to conduct a second autopsy. i want to bring you in cnn's victor blackwell. he was been involved with the story since the very beginning and doing a heck of a job reporting it, victor. you know, the family is seeing disturbing new information. >> yes, today was kj day. i want to tell you, the shoe involved there was a match, the

other orange and black shoe that was not collected, the family and supporters have new disturbing details, up until maybe six months into this. they have been trying to get answers about how kendrick died. but now after what you're about to see, there are new, difficult questions to ask about what happened to his body after he was removed from that gym. >> reporter: it is the second time jacqueline johnson cried next to her son, kendrick's grave. the first time he was being lowered into the ground. this time he is being pulled out of it. >> did you ever expect you would have to exhume his body? >> no, i didn't expect to have to bury his body. >> in june, kendrick's body was sent to florida. the johnsons hired dr. bill anderson to conduct an independent second autopsy, in that autopsy, johnson told authorities he believed kendrick

died from a blow to the neck, and not after being choked after slipping into a rolled carpet. what the investigators found shocked them. >> when we got the body from the second autopsy, the organs, the heart, lung, liver, et cetera, were not with the body. >> the brain? >> the brain, they were all absent. >> every organ from the top of kendrick's head to his pelvis, gone. and his family had no idea. >> we have been let down again. and when we buried kendrick, we thought we were burying kendrick, not half of kendrick. >> i'm not sure at this point who did not return the organs to the body, but i know when we got the body the organs were not there. >> so cnn contacted the two entities that had custody of his body. the first organization, and

harrington funeral home, which the johnsons chose to prepare kendrick's body for burial later. a spokesperson for cnn was told after the autopsy, the organs were placed, and the body was relear released to the funeral home. what happened after his body arrived at the funeral home was anything but normal. >> what was in the place of the organs? >> newspaper. >> newspaper. >> dr. anderson showed me the pictures of kendrick's body he had taken during the second autopsy. >> it's a black friday ad, j.c. penny ad? >> yes. >> stucking newspaper in like he was a garbage can, inside his body. it's unbelievable. >> i would imagine that that is a different kind of pain. >> yes. >> why do you think that there

would be newspapers stuffed in your child? >> i never heard of that before. never. >> neither had the founder of a national embalming academy. nor had the spokesperson from the medical practice. >> why would they discard his organs and stuff his body away newspaper? >> so what exactly did the funeral home do with kendrick's organs and why was he stuffed with old newspaper? we went to their office to find out, but their response? no comment. however, in a letter of rely, the owner denies he received kendrick's organs, he writes, his internal organs were destroyed through natural process and hence fort were discarded before the body was sent back. it is another disturbing answer

for parents determined to know what happened to their son before, and now after his death. and they admit they're struggling. >> unbearable, just about. only thing that wakes you up in the morning is just to keep pushing. >> so don, we contacted the georgia secretary of state which licenses funeral homes. we wanted to get some information about the history of harrington funeral home. but when they heard about the details of our story the folks there opened their own investigation. they want to know where are kendrick's organ, and they want to know more about this practice of stuffing the body with newspaper. >> oh, my goodness, the family and their attorney says that video from surveillance video is being with held. and they want it released. who wouldn't? what do they suspect is on that videotape? >> they believe there is

surveillance footage of kendrick being beaten to death. now, we have to say it is not really video they take stills of every few moments. but aside from what you just heard, consider there is surveillance video, we know that the investigators, at least, or the school district, they looked at it. they gave us several frames of kendrick walking. if on day one they saw the surveillance of kendrick, if they have it on surveillance, why would there then be a four and a half month investigation? 100 interviews they say they did, forensic evidence. if you have it on day one is there a need to go on for four months to actually get answers to what actually happened? >> all right, victor, stand by. next. more of this exclusive report coming up on cnn, and the possible legal action that is coming this week.

kendrick johnson would have turned 18 this week, i say would have. kendrick johnson was a young man whose body was found inside a rolled up gym mat at his high school in georgia, his death first ruled an accident. but now the evidence points more and more to a mysterious death. i want to bring back cnn's victor blackwell, joining us from atlanta. he has been on this story since the very beginning. victor, you confronted the man who may be able to reveal a crucial key to the mystery of johnson's death, what did he say to you? >> well, he said a lot, the sheriff's office said their case is closed. the georgia bureau of investigation stands behind their work. there are now two men who can move this case forward to try to get the johnsons some answers, one is a u.s. attorney who has not yet decided if he will launch a federal investigation, the other is the coroner in the

county. he said he would help the family get answers. but then he changed his mind, so we paid him a visit. mr. watson, victor black well, cnn. >> reporter: this is the county coroner, bill watson, he can order something the johnson family desperately wants, but has not agreed to give it to him. >> i will not comment on anything, i would like you to leave my office. >> reporter: we'll come back to this in moments, but for more than several months, this has been the scene inside the judicial center in georgia. ken and jacqueline johnson, supporters, signs and a question, who killed kendrick johnson? >> we want answers and are not leaving until we get answers. they have never believed the theory from the investigators that their 17-year-old son climbed onto a rolled gym mat to grab a shoe at the center of one, fell into one, got stuck

upside down and was accidentally choked. >> we are mostly concerned about what happened to kendrick and what they know about what happened to kendrick. >> the investigation showed he died of a blunt force trauma to the neck, not an accident, homicide. and with opposing theories on the cause of death from competing pathologists, who can get to the bottom of how kendrick died? bill watson can, by ordering what is called a coroner's inquest. watson has the power to impanel a jury of five, and listen to how he died, an answer that the paren parents sorely want. in mid-april, the attorney

received a response from watson, saying he was precluded by statute from impanelling a coroner's jury, because the investigation was not complete. this petition was submitted to the district attorney with more than 400 signatures. we spoke with watson in may after the sheriff's office had had closed its case. here is what he said about launching a coroner's inquest for the johnsons. >> if they requested one, and they don't feel that this is sufficient -- then you know, i'm -- i'm elected to do what is best served to the people. that elected me. i made them a promise, took an oath to the effect that if i was elected, i would stand up and speak for those who can't speak for themselves. and that is what i've done, since january the 11th.

>> would you welcome the inquiry? >> yes, sir, i will. i have nothing to -- there is nothing to hide. >> he has already said that he will give us one. and we want one, and why wouldn't he give us one. >> so this month, five months after that interview, we went to visit watson. and that takes us back to where we began. >> mr. watson? victor blackwell, cnn, are you going to order an inquest into the case of kendrick johnson? >> i'm not commenting on anything, i would like for you to leave my office. >> you told me in may you would order an inquest, what changed your mind? >> no, i didn't tell you that. >> yes, you said that on tape, if the people wanted one you would order the investigation? >> i'm not commenting on anything. >> why have you changed your mind, you told me on tape you

would order an inquest? what has changed? >> and that is the way it is. >> pressure from the sheriff's department, and the system here in the county. that is why he is not going to do it now. but we surely want a coroner's inquest. >> the sheriff's office wouldn't discuss that case, and the johnsons would be the first to get one during watson's time as coroner. can you tell me at least, what is a coroner's inquest? i would rather you look it up. >> they are rare, there are fewer than half a dozen since 1985. what has changed, sir? >> thank you. >> watson would not answer that question, but the johnsons promise one thing will not change. their fight for an answer. they will continue to sit in front of the courthouse with their supporters and their signs and their question. >> if they want us to leave, they're going to give us answers, we're not going nowhere. >> so victor, the family's

attorney is taking some legal action this week, right? >> yeah, the plan is to file a lawsuit on tuesday at the very earliest. and it is to implore the district attorney in lounce county to force the coroner to launch the inquest. now typically it is up to the coroner's discretion. but they say to know the information about the surveillance video that is being with held. and also the blood on the wall, and all the questions about the investigation to not order that inquest is an abuse of that discretion. and i want to be -- make sure that people are clear about why this is important. because if that jury decides that kendrick's death was not an accident and indeed was a homicide, the death certificate will be changed. the cause of death will become homicide. that, then, is forwarded to the district attorney who can start another investigation to try to get to the bottom of who is responsible for that homicide. >> cnn, victor blackwell, great reporting, thank you. he has become known simply

as the lawn mower man, cutting the grass at the lincoln memorial. because the government is shut down. so why is he doing it? we're asking him live next.
