3:17 am
reach a deal about its nuclear intentions, but he insists iran will not surrender the necknology. good morning jim. >> reporter: good morning, kate. well i think his comments get to what these negotiations are and are not and what they've never been. iran has not agreed and says it will not agree to giving up its entire nuclear program and indeed, the u.s. and the west are not it'sing that. they're putting limitations on it, but they're not going to require it to disappear in this initial agreement or a longer term agreement. doesn't mean it's not progress. you have more u.n. inspectors in iran than there really have ever been before. s several steps below weapons grade. if smokes back home -- folks back home think that this program is going to disappear,
3:18 am

3:19 am
toy to hear those words. >> i think that kpemp fies the pressures that we hear a lot with this. both countries, when dealing with the external and internal pressures often. >> let's turn to sports now. when you think about the best rivalries in sports history, that's a big question. you got the yank keys and the sox. on let's bring in andy scholes with this morning's bleacher report. didn't look like much of an epic rival rivalry. >> yeah, it doesn't. this morning it was all nadal. he had a straight set victory over federer.

he then took the second set and third set, 6-3, 6-3 to complete the sweep. federer is the more accomplish the. when they do collide in grand slam, nadal holds the edge. all right. cnn's rachel nichols got the first sitdown interview with richard sherman. one of the topics they discussed was sherman being labeled a thug. >> i think it used to be the n word. now they're using thug instead of the n word as a more accepted way of saying -- it's still sad. >> you can catch this whole interview tonight with ray shell nichols. that's at 10:30 eastern. and in case you missed it, justin bieber was arrested yesterday.

3:28 am
step to the left, well, the story would have ended quite differently. >> we have seen way too many of those videos recently. >> that was a very swift move that maid all the difference. >> really was. >> and a really, really strong telephone pole. >> i know. >> so here's another topic for you this morning. a new york times magazine article about hillary clinton. some people say that the cover is more provocative than the piece itself. people are for various reasons moved to mention it. clinton is pictured as a planet there in the middle of outer space. joining us now is cnn political commentator, democratic strategist, supporter of her campaign in 2008. i will dismiss the cover, but
3:29 am
you cannot. what is it that gets your gall. >> it's too early in the morning. it's embarrassing for the magazine. this is 17 out of the last 20 years she has been voted as the most admired woman in the world and this is how they depict her? they -- they've posted a list of, i don't know, maybe a half a dozen or a dozen other covers that the magazine did on politicians, none of which are -- i mean this -- she's -- this hairless disembodied orb? i don't know. it's fine. obviously, i'm a strong believer in free press. i just don't get it. >> a little bit of the i guess what it gives off. not just the shock value, but this -- in the article, david axle rod is quoted as saying
3:30 am
something -- how -- what happened in the last election that she was in. she stumbled in 2007. doesn't this cover just feed into that? >> i don't know if the cover does. we'd have to ask neil -- >> that's good. >> it does show a planet with other huge bodies or bitting around this. but ax knows my universe. >> right. >> barack obama one, because he's enormously talented. hillary -- they maid a terrible mistake. everybody wanted to be courted, but democrats more than most like an underdog. that's something she has got to guard against. >> even that suggestion, i think that that is going to start to feed into the problem here.
3:31 am
that's just a tricky response. she is running by all accounts. right now -- >> better than me. >> the bar is to now say that she's not running. the calls are out for money. people are joining. you see what's going on around here. at this point, don't play the game the way that it's ordinarily played. she does want to show this is a new hillary. fair criticism or no. >> you may know her better than i do. i only have 22 years of history with her, but she has just not maid up her -- made up her mind, nor should she. i'm sure she's watching. hillary, please run, your country needs you. she just hasn't made the decision yet. right now, she's writing a book, she's working with her foundation. look, i hope she does. i have never seen this strong
3:32 am
support for a potential candicecy this early. >> you should know that very well as senior advisors of priority usa action who announced it's coming out and backing hillary clinton. why priorities coming out to back hillary now? >> so dicy a proposition as it is. >> it's because the numbers don't lie. she is by far the strongest candidate the democrats could field. our super pack wants to continue what president obama and vice president biden have been doing. and our -- our strategists, our donors and supporters, they're all of one mind on this. they think she would be the strongest candidate. she runs, we'll support her. >> doesn't that hurt joe biden
3:33 am
right now? >> no. he's got to decide for himself just the way hillary does. as you know i have a personal bias here because i love her and support her and want her to run. even setting that aside, if i could, she's by far the strongest candidate. it is very rare for a party to win three presidential elections in a row. what the democrats are seeking to do leer is very, very, very difficult. >> that's also the trick. the piece gets into that how does she show that she's new and different from the president now. as will be the comparisons between her and her husband. thank you very much. always appreciate the perspective. >> thanks. great fun. >> and it is money time now folks. christine romans is in our money center. so, have the bulls just decided

now the pope and hollande are expected to meet for about a half hour. but the french people still want clarification on hollande's personal life. is his wife being replaced by french actress julie gayet. they are still working to clarify the situation. >> thank you very much. and more deadly clashes to talk about between police and protestors in kiev. >> reporter: talks between the president and the leaders of the opposition have come to nothing. e clearly his resignation and that of his cabinet are not up for discussion. the streets are calm for now, but the leaders of the opposition were booed when they explained to the crowd that the
3:41 am
talks had failed last night. people say they want a clear road map for action or they'll take matters into their own hands. the u.s. says it's considering targeted sanctions but nothing more concrete yet. >> thank you for that. >> so you getting pumped up for super bowl friday. >> i have a downdown clock at home. >> it's monday. why am i saying. it could happen. weather could be a real factor. now, for the first time ever with the big game being played in an open air venue in an open air city, could there be a last minute super bowl shuffle? pamela brown here with real answers. >> bottom line here, there could be, but it's unlikely. some people even criticized the decision to have the super bowl in the cold northeast.
3:42 am
with the temperatures we've seen in the past few weeks, the ffl is now preparing some contingency plans. the broncos and seahawks are ready to go head to head, but the arctic blasts has something asking, what happens if mother nature rears her head on super bowl sunday. premature to change the game, but the nfl does have a plan in place that could move the game up to friday or slide it back to monday if foul weather makes super bowl sunday unplayable. >> now the basis on which we move it forward would be a massive storm with a massive cleanup. >> >> reporter: crews has practice this week cleaning up after a major snowstorm on tuesday. it took about four hours. >> the silver lining is we're running ourselves through a rigorous dress rehearsal. >> reporter: accu weather is
3:43 am
even getting into the game. currently all predictions are no, which is music to the ears for the people who maid the decision to -- made the decision to have the super bowl in new jersey. >> we came here knowing it was going to be cold. >> reporter: others take a different view. >> it's a total disaster to have it in an outdoor stadium in the north in february. >> reporter: it's not just about the game. super bowl friday or super bowl monday will affect everyone. >> the entire industry of the super bowl is based upon sa sunday broadcast. they may say they have a contingency plan, they're going to play on sunday. there's just too much money involved. >> nfl officials say it's all about safety. in the event of a major storm or severe cold snap, they would
3:44 am
consult everyone to determine if the game can go on as planned. but they say it is an all-weather sport with all-weather fans. they are confident there will still be a super bowl sunday at this point. >> take whatever we can get. let's take a look at exactly what the weather could be looking at. what do you think? i know it's still far out. >> yesterday, we were talking about clear skies. today's forecast now has rain and even snow in the forecast and 38 degrees. there's a key ingredient here. we're in this pattern right now. we're talking about clippers. if it stays farther to the north, you don't get much out of it. if one of these clippers, which right now, there is one in the forecast, it could intersect with the ocean and suddenly have tons of heavy snow in the forecast. it's also whether you get rain or snow. the farther south you go, you
3:45 am
have more rain. a little bit higher up to the north, it's all snow. it was only 24 hours before, suddenly, we have a foot of snow here. >> what's the time frame you'll be relatively confident? >> you're talking literally one. not good news. let's take a break. coming up on "new day," the rumor mill is going into over drive over the next iphone. we're going to sort it all out for you. and we've got to show you this. a california couple's way too close encounter with a bear. don't worry. it all works out. they didn't even know the bear was there. farmer: hello, i'm an idaho potato farmer.

>> all right. one story feeds into another. the prices there are sparking. a lot of people are now going to have to look to their savings. and that brings in the market. we're seeing a sell-off right now. let's bring in christine romans. there is a smell of fear. why? >> people are realizing they don't go straight up anymore. this year is going to be harder than it was last year. and you have a lot of scare in the market. scare because they're going to pull back stimulus. emerging markets are not going to fair as well. companies have been having good profits because they've been basically tightening the belt, tight ning the belt, not hiring. and you -- we have futures down big. another 125 points the dow futures right now. >> so the question becomes is
4:09 am
this just adjusting to what they see as data or is it a correction. and if so, what does that mean for 401(k) watchers? >> that's such a good question. we haven't had a correction in this market since last summer. so it's just been going up. some would argue you need a little bit of a pullback to refresh, to recall operate your position. for our 401(k) that means it's not going to be as easy this year as it was last year. i think the average, consensus of wall street strategists is maybe 6% is the gain for the year, but it could be real choppy to get it. in your 401(k), for the year, the nasdaq is higher. the dow it's down a little bit more. it's down 2.3% for the year. this is -- that's yesterday's close. today you're going to see some

4:30 am
kindergarten class, they have been collecting friends, people who feel a stake in her future. so i think the big question is, how do you make all these people feel involved and feel heard without creating that chaos that destroyed her the last time. i mean, the clintons came to power when big digging up opposition research files is how you win campaigns. the obama campaign really mastered the data game. they're going to bring in the new people. >> opposition research still very much a part of politics. one of the interesting dynamics is you say yourself, the clintons. hillary is going to have to distinguish herself to win this election. >> absolutely. >> do you get any sense, a lot of them are bill's people, as to
4:31 am
why hillary is better than bill on any level? >> it's a really interesting question, because right now, bill clinton's people are very focused on legacy building. he talks a lot about the clinton years. she does too. but she cannot look like a candidate of the '9s. she is no longer the first lady, the president's wife. she's been a senator, secretary of state, presidential candidate. >> john, come into this discussion. something also that hillary clinton has to fight is this suggestion that this is a core ron nation. that was one of the problems that she had in 2007 when she was encased in a presumption of
4:32 am
inevidentbility. >> she wishes all these primaries would be tomorrow. remember, at this point back in 2006, this kid named barack obama was not even registering in the polls. so can she be beat? yes. is there anybody out there now viewed as a credible contender? absolutely not. in our lifetime, only george h.w. bush, a republican has succeeded a two term president of his own party. that's one of the reasons you see this, they say it's our turn, but all these people flocking to her. former obama people saying let's just build for tres hillary on the ground because she's the only one that can keep the white house in democratic hands. as we've talked about before, she's been inevitable before. that has to be a bell on the back of her head, i've lived this dream before and it turned
4:33 am
into a nightmare. hillary land is a lot bigger than bill's campaigns ever were. but he had the arkansas guard. there was a lot of tension at first. they finally figured it out, but the candidate sets the tone. the candidate has to referee it. that's what she didn't do in 2008. >> you did a good job. it's not easy to get in there. of course, you had them seeing who could talk, you did a good job of unpacking who's around her. the question is, what kind of candidate can they mold. it's tough when you have bill clinton as your husband. there's also going to be a lot of comparison early on. >> and then there's a question of how do we utilize him as a surrogate without having him steal her thunder. >> let's talk about this cover that's got a lot of attention.
4:34 am
>> i've got it. >> we've got a graphic of it right here for you. an assumption this was coming at you when you guys went out there with this? what do you make of the reaction. >> i kept describing this as a story about her or bit. they didn't know i was quite so literally. >> and you don't pick the cover to be fair. >> i didn't pick the cover. when they showed it to me, i definitely thought, oh, this is going to drive a lot of reaction. >> let's show some of the other options that people have taken creative license with what would be your cropping of choice? >> i think -- not crop of choice here. but ever since i first started covering hillary clinton, there's been a debate about her hair style. we're not talking about her hair. maybe that's a victory. >> and we're not talking about
4:35 am
pabt suits. >> or they're going to say they don't like it because they're going to say you're not showing her respect. is that a fair criticism. >> because paul was not a fan of it. >> interesting. i don't know being a planet tear body seems respectful. i could understand where they wouldn't think it was the most flattering. >> that's not the motivating tone? >> of course not, no. absolutely not. >> it's got a lot of people talking. >> it's good to generate buzz because you are far out. an interesting point to end on, john, you brought this up, senator barack obama, he wasn't registering well, hillary was seeming stronger than him on small issues. do you believe that she will benefit from the idea of buyer's remorse on president obama?
4:36 am
you hear this in democratic circles. i wonder if she would have been better than the president is being right now. >> i do think there is a bit of that among democratic activists. her argument was he's not ready to be president. once iowa, new hampshire, once he became credible, he had such a huge advantage because african-americans support went to him in droves. she was a loyal soldier after that campaign. one of the reasons you see so many of team obama trying to support team hillary, they think okay. first african-american president, that's great. now it is time to elect the first female president. democrats now consume the federal government. these are their friends and their families in all these jobs. they lose the white house, they
4:37 am
lose those jobs. if they look around, no offense to the governors out there, they look around at the other candidates and they say, history says republicans will win unless we nominate the battle ship. >> thank you as always. you can read amy's piece in this issue of "new york times" magazine. coming up on "new day," pop star justen bieber's legal troubles. they are real. we are going to talk about that and we're going to talk about why isn't someone helping this kid. also the reviews are coming in. just take a look and you can decide. classic style or something akin to ugly christmas sweater. we're going to hash this out coming up.

just when the streets are finally safe from lindsay lohan, justin bieber comes out of nowhere. arrested this morning and he's in trouble with his grandparents for not stopping by to visit. >> funny now, but bieber's news, this latest scrape isn't just egging his neighbor's home. he was arrested for driving without a license, driving under the influence. among the people facilitating that drag race, allegedly his own father who reportedly took him to a bar after picking him up. that's an allegation. i hope it's not true. we have bonnie fuller.
4:42 am
thank you very much for giving us the social and the legal here. let's start with the social. people pay say, he's not really news, but isn't it a concern that we're seeing another kid going down the road unsupervised that could end very badly? >> justin bieber has millions and millions of fans and they follow every move that he makes. he was a role model for many years. and so it's been very disturbing to see him go off that track and to evolve into this person who's drag racing, putting himself in danger and other people in danger. >> he is only 19 years old. but that's why 19-year-olds have parents. what do we know about who's around him? does he have any kind of support system? >> he does have a big support system. he was raised by his mother,
4:43 am
patty. she has not been seen around him lately. he was with his father, jeremy. and apparently, he was at scene and he was with him afterwards. there had been reports that he left miami. but in fact, he stayed in miami and was still in his hotel and there were pictures of the two of them together afterwards. >> is this true about the father taking him to a bar? >> we've heard that as well, that he was with him before the incident and after. and we've also heard that his mother, patty, is very, very concerned and is -- is planning what to do next, is working with his team to try and figure out what will work because justin doesn't think he has a problem. >> it's hard when the kid's got so much money, so much pow, a lot of people around him become beholden to him. first time dui could easily be a
4:44 am
felony. his admission to police officer about what he was doing. that he was engaged in an aggravating factor. these are major components of what could be a tough case. >> it's true. and florida has lower bills than california, but basically the same sentences. the first time offense of.02 and over is a dui. my understanding is he had a .04. he'll probably have to take an alcohol class, probably lose his license for up to a year, may have to do community service. the most important thing is this, this has to be awake-up call to anyone. whenever i tell a client on a first-time offense, it's not that serious now. it's serious, but this has to be a wake-up call.
4:45 am
the first thing i'd say is stay out of the media, no comments, go about your business and let the lawyers handle everything. get it pled out immediately. >> he's got roy black who has already been savvy. so far they're treating him the way they should, not making it extra hard because he's a celebrity. based on the facts we have here, it seems like a judge should say, you talk like this to the cops, you didn't have a license, you're setting up a drag race? >> justin bieber should not have done a knee jerk reaction of yeah i did this, yeah i did that. he shouldn't have done anything which means his advisors should have told him going in, this is your lifestyle right now. as soon as something happens,
4:46 am
you say nothing and call us. as far as justin's behavior and roy black's handling of this, you have to get it down to a wreckless, get him into an alcohol program. many of my clients will say, i want to fight this. look, lieu blew the legal -- you blew the legal limit. get it done and behave yourself. i think i would plead it tout to -- out to a wet recognizeless. >> that makes us back to the perception of these things. is it fair to say you see a kid going down the wrong road or is lot of this hype because he keeps giving us stuff to report on? >> i don't think it's speculation. we have seen the acts. we saw 11 police cars pull up to his house last week. they took his vandalism, allegedly throwing eggs at his
4:47 am
neighbor very seriously. before that, we have seen a number of incidents. he has been pulled over for speeding before. and he -- there's been a lot of concern about partying at his house. the neighbors have called. there's been a series of events that seem to get more serious. he was even accused of vandalism in australia. >> where do you see him on the spectrum of sebties -- celebrities in trouble? >> i see him as a young star who's got great potential to turn his life back around. i think right now, he's on a bad path. and we've heard that he doesn't think he has a problem. so that's the first problem. >> it always is in these situations. the young ones have a lot of money. >> that's right. and he's very talented. he's got a great future ahead of him if he can see what he's doing right now is not right.
4:48 am
>> i'll finish up. i see him as a young individual flexing his must lts. thousands upon thousands of people get duis at that age. as long as he doesn't get into more trouble, i think he's going to be fine. >> thanks a lot. hopefully it gets better from here. >> so these big swells in hawaii. we've been talking about them. let's talk about what's behind them. >> truly unbelievable. take a look at some of the video. giant breaking surf will make it extremely dangerous to approach the shoreline. anyone approaching could see significant injury or death. why are we looking at waves this big? california has had this huge ridge of high pressure. that's a low pressure system as strong as a hurricane. remember, it's winds that create
4:49 am
surf. once again, you have this huge system out there bringing them in toward hawaii. the weight of the waves so strong they could actually break bones. now they're making their way all the way over to california. not as high. about 20 feet out there. half-moon bay, they're looking for these strong waves. this also has to do with the shoreline. 20 feet, this is so interesting. when you watch the mavericks invitational, they stand on cliffs and look down. today, the waves are going to be so high that they have to close the public off. very interesting. >> that is interesting. does increase the draw to the event though, right? >> hopefully not, but yes. coming up on "new day," our first look at the u.s. olympic team yun forms. a pat jot ik patch work or

5:11 am
a super bowl friday or super bowl monday would affect everyone for the business preparing for sunday's game to local residents who leased out their thunderstorms ticket holders. >> the entire industry of the super bowl is based on a sunday broadcast. they may say they have a contingency plan but the truth is unless a tornado comes down and rips the tornado open they will play on sunday. there's just too much money involved. >> nfl officials say it all comes down safety. in the event of a major storm or severe cold snap they wilkon result with everyone from law enforcement officials to transportation officials as well as the governor's office to determine if the game can go on as planned. this is an all weather sport with all weather fans and they are confident and determined to make sure we have a super bowl sunday. >> it's a point of pride for men to show up when it's cold. >> that's right. >> thanks. coming up next on "new day" from one huge sports speck cal to the other. the sochi olympic games.

let's bring in two sports writers who both have been planning to go the games. cnn commentator and writer for espn and a sports writer for the "boston globe". good morning, you guys. >> good morning. >> so let's talk about this. everyone is wondering, these threats and unrest in the region right around sochi this is not new. this is not a surprise to anyone. why was the game -- why were the games placed in sochi in the very first place. should they have not been? what do you think? >> well, first of all they were placed in sochi in the first place, if you can believe it or not, because of vladimir putin's charm offensive when they had the original vote in 2007 in guatemala city. all of the problems that are there today, everything from the security to concerns about the climate to concerns about the politics and political corruption were all well-known by people who study the region
5:26 am
at the time. do i think they should have been put there? probably not. my guess is that behind closed doors members of the ioc are not only wringing their hands but regretting their decision to place the games there over cities like south korea or austria. >> what do you think? do you think olympic committee is having buyer's remorse? >> absolutely. but, you know, if you look at the history of the olympics it's not as if we haven't seen this done before. we oftentimes point to what happened with the so-called nazi olympics back in 1936 where the ioc went there and was charmed by hitler into believing there was nothing unusual going on there and be okay to host the olympics there. we've seen this time and time again, in the past with ioc and this is a long list of corrupt things that has infiltrated the organization. >> you make a very good point.
5:27 am
the fact of the matter isn't it today that no matter where the olympics will be held and no matter where any large public gathering, any big sporting event or anything like that where the world's attention will be held that becomes a terror target. >> yes. >> absolutely. this is the world we live in now. >> go ahead. >> sure. >> i was just saying this is the world that we live in. and, you know, we're going to be having this conversation about sochi in another four years because they are hosting the fifa world up with. i doubt the problems we're talking about today will be solved in four years. so this is the new normal. we're going to be having our large events like this, particularly sporting events targeted and now we just have to decide how much security will be enough security and spectators have to decide whether or not they want to put themselves in that position. >> go ahead. >> i was going to say, he mentions there's precedent throughout the history of the olympic movement of putting the
5:28 am
games in places where there are political dicey situations and some security issues never have you had a games placed in such close proximity to places where there is ongoing violence nor have you had the games placed in situations where there's threats against the games and where weeks ago within a matter of 100 years a city that's a gateway to sochi have you had two bombings. so i think while there is precedent, it is a little bit different this time because of the proximity to violence as well as these threats that are coming from people who have actually followed through with threats in the past. >> look, it's too late to move the olympics now, obviously. we're a couple of weeks out. do you think the threat level can reach a point where they will postpone or cancel the games? i mean it would have to be pretty serious. >> it would have to be pretty
5:29 am
serious. and i would guess that there would have to be more incidents in the coming weeks for that to even become a possibility. obviously no one wants that to happen and everyone wants to put their faith in the 1500 mile ring of steel that vladimir putin has put together around the olympic facilities. but i do think you are going to see a much more tamped down atmosphere at the olympics where they are a usually a festive and celebratory affair. people will be cautious. athletes are speaking out about their nervousness and apartment let's asking their families not to come to these games. i don't think a postponement is a possibility, but i think you're going to see a much different games in sochi than you have in past. >> with all of this in context and personal choice for both of you, if you were going to go to cover it for work or not, you
5:30 am
both have been planning to. are you still going? >> i'm still going. i'm leaving next week. >> are are you still going? >> no. i'm not. my original intent was to go as a political protest because i was not thrilled with the anti-lgbt laws that are in russia and i wanted to go there as a journalist to document to what was happening to the lgbt russians. is that different scenario. this is no longer about a russian law is this about a civil war and i don't feel safe going there now. >> that's what's too bad about it. >> i was going to say it's a civil war where they put the fans, media and athletes right in the middle. >> everyone is a target. great to see you. thank you so much. safe travels. chris? >> coming up on "new day" you saw the film last night right here on cnn a look at the fascinating real life tale of a

grad to have you back with us. cnn presented "the imposter" last night the true story about a frenchman passing him off as a missing teenage boy. if you haven't watched it we have a few spoiler alerts. it revealed the true identity of the imposter, a wanted criminal wanted by interpol. once he was caught he told police that he believed that the boy who he was pretending to be had been murdered by his own family. let's bring in a private investigator charlie parker who helped uncover the truth joining us once again. thank you so much for joining us once again, charlie. first of all, now that the film has aired we can talk about some of these details. you really were instrumental in exposing the imposter and, in fact, when you confronted him about it he copped to it to you. tell us about that moment. >> yes, he did.
5:36 am
his mother, the mother of the real nicholas barkley took him by the middle school that he allegedly attended and he did not recognize it. she panicked and called me at midnight and said that he was acting crazy, had a baseball bat, was doing crazy things. i went over and calmed him down and met him the next morning. we sat together. had breakfast. and i said your mother was very upset last night and he said you know she's not my mother. i'm wanted by interpol and my name is frederick bordine. so it was a tense moment. >> did the ball get rolling very quickly after that? >> it got rolling quickly. it did. i think it's interesting to note, the fbi -- i went into the restroom, called the fbi, had to stall him for an hour, took him back home and the fbi came, did
5:37 am
the perp walk. i went back into his room where he stayed and it was a tense moment for me too, the adrenaline was working and in his closet where he stayed was two shirts, one pair of jeans and a pack that he carried all the time. and i sunk down and looked oh, my god what have i done? there was no bomb inside the pack. there was nothing that indicated that he was there to cause any harm. he never did cause any harm while he was here other than betray the family. and it made me really stop and wonder what in the world was he doing here? >> charlie, that's the thing that i'm -- one of the many questions you're left with after watching this is why do you think after all these years that he did this and not just one time spoiler alert he tried to do this many times throughout his life. >> i think now after really looking at it, that in some of
5:38 am
the cases he wanted to be with a family. he is swaggering now, in the movie he swaggers and laugh. there was no laughter back then. it was all serious. when he was sentenced he broke down. i went to his sentencing. his shoulders sagged. prior to that no one sent him to prison for all the impersonations he had done and he served hard time in texas. >> where is the real kid? what do you know? is there anything to his speculation? >> i walked in the tracks he walked in. i went to the middle school that afternoon and walked to the mile to the phone booth that he walked. i ran background checks on everybody in that block. i found no predators back then. i found nobody of real interest that might have taken him. i know he made it home. when we ran the record of police reports to the house you saw what we found in the movie. we found where there had been
5:39 am
family disturbances constantly, where he had been arguing with jason the older brother. >> the movie points to or at least one of the paths they point to is the older brother jason perhaps being involved. it comes from frederick. that's what i want to ask you about. this imposter himself says he in the movie he believes the family killed this young boy. is that him just leading us down another trail of lies? >> i don't believe it is. i believe there's a possibility. jason is definitely a person of interest. because it is a closed case on jason, because they believe, the police believe it was an overdose, i was able to obtain the photos of the crime scene where jason died. i went to the motel, laid the photos out exactly as they would appear. jason was a skilled addict. it didn't look real to me. the drugs were laying out in the open. nyad district would have hid them in a vent.
5:40 am
he would have hid the drugs in the trunk. i believe jason went to that motel to die. i believe he took his own life. i was questioning hard nancy fisher was questioning him. i think he realized what happened and went there to die. >> charlie parker, again, you have been so good to talk to us about this film and give us further insight. thank you so much for joining us. again, you are the one that opened that case wide up.
