death christmas eve after he picked her up from work at a mall. they looked for her fiance and sal's big brother to him the worst had happened to the two people he loved most, but he couldn't be found. he had disappeared and that led to rumors of a possible love triangle and jealous rage. a passer smelled anodor emanating from a car. they confirmed it is the body of gianni belvedere. casey, a news conference has just wrapped. what did police reveal? >> the police released more information about a person of interest. a person they called a suspicious male who was seen the night of the first two killings very near this scene. here's the description of this person of interest. >> the person of interest we are
11:02 am
looking for is an unknown race male, 5'10" to 6 feet tall. they have unique white bands around the sleeves in the bicep area. that male is wearing tan want pants and tennis shoes. they are believed to be in the mission center mall on december 23rd and again at the mission valley center mall around 12:15 p.m. a.m., rather. >> as you mentioned, more than three weeks later, the body of gianni was found in a fast food parking lot in riverside, california. the coroner conducted an autopsy on the body this week. autopsy results, the report not
11:03 am
finalized yet. all police will say at this time is that gianni is also the victim of a homicide. >> thank you. winter's arctic grip is holding parts of the country hostage. this is texas. an ice storm and hard freeze blanketing houston, austin, san antonio and nearly a half inch of ice in areas and in the midwest and the east, the cold continues to chill people to the bone. high temperatures still in the neighborhood of 20 or 25 degrees below zero. we will be hovering around that area throughout weekend. the west rema mains hot and dry. if all goes according to planned, pope francis could be coming to the united states next year. the vatican sources said he spends to visit in september of 2015. it would be the first visit to the u.s. for the hope and the first papal visit since benedict in 2008.
11:04 am
this is a big, big news. i'm going to ask you a question. you just have to guess. where do you think he will go. >> the odds on favorite is philadelphia in 2015. philadelphia will host the world meeting of families. that's a big gathering that happens every three years. since i have been sitting here, i got a response from the archdiocese. let me read you this quickly. we are planning as if pope francis will be with us and have no indication that he will not attend. that's about as close as confirmation that you can get. this is a long way away. the vatican has not announced this trip. the pope indicated he wants to come to the u.s. in september. in the this is likely where he will head. it is worth noting that the assembly is every year in september. you could see he made two stops in 2015 in philadelphia and new york city for the un general
11:05 am
assembly. >> we talked about the buzz he created. can you imagine that? >> 3.7 million people showed up for that. you can imagine what it would be like here. >> we heard recently the president will be at the vatican with the pope. the date was march 27th. do we have an idea what they will talk about? >> the white house indicated that president obama is interested in talking to the pope about poverty and income ine kwagity. those are two sim pat coe issues for them there. a number of other of things to talk about, the families and religious protections for communities and lots of social issues which i suspect will come up as well. >> get your hat in the ring for covering the pope in 2015. i'm sure we all will. thank you so much. >> now to some breaking information about justin bieber's dui arrest 24 hours
11:06 am
after he was arrested. the wee hours in miami beach, his breathalyzer test was under the legal limit. that's what we are now learning, but because he is under 21, his blood alcohol level could not be over .02. he took not just one, but two breathalyzer tests. also more information here about the night the pop star landed in south florida on monday. this trio of florida police officers was escorted him around town allegedly to a strip club have been suspended with pay. the officers are from the opa locka police department and that escort is unauthorized according to city officials who talked to cnn. an investigation is under way about everything here. wieber's where knows remain unknown as he was leaving miami-dade jail on that bond. what his high profile attorney
11:07 am
calls a standard bond. black said prosecutors did not ask for higher bail because of bieber's celebrity. then this. cnn obtained video of bieber's arrest captured on cell phone and posted on instagram. >> oh, my god. justin got pulled over. >> drugs, booze, fast cars, alleged street escorts to see strippers. one of the question, where are the parents here. his mom, patty, has not spoken out about this. some reports indicate his father was there when he was arrested. he is an adult, keep in mind. in the eyes of the law, he is 19, but under the age of 21. digital correspondent kelly wallace joins me from new york. first of all for the parents, we heard the girls squealing, there many justin bieber fans out
11:08 am
there. how do parents explain what's happening to their kids? >> there a ton of them out there. this was the question. we asked a lot of moms and dads about this. a lot of them say number one, this is sort of a conversation starter. an opportunity to talk to kids about drinking and drugs and about doing both behind the wheel and appropriate behavior for teenagers. if they have a friend in the same trouble, what to do. there is also that question of sometimes i think we think that if our girls and boys idolize someone like justin bieber, they think they can do everything that justin bieber does. many people i talkeded to said we need to give our teens more credit than that. they can look at him and like his music and voice, but they can recognize he is not the model of good behavior. >> not at the moment at all. to justin bieber's parents themselves, i remember interviewing the mother. she raised him more or less as a single mother and here are the reports about the dad being
11:09 am
there as they were drag racing. the word that am cans to my mind is enibler. >> this was a big question as i was talking to people. we are not in the home. we don't know what kind of parenting is going on behind the scenes, but it raises questions and also if you are a child star and if you feel your family is really benefiting and needing you to continue to be that star, there is a concern about that. again, also you raise the point, he is 19. one therapist i talked to said he is 19. he makes millions and millions of dollars. he can move out and buy all the houses he wants. how much parental control could parents really have? that is another question out there. >> thank you. coming up next hour, we will be talking to former child star who has experience with a number of issues, mckenzie phillips who will join me next hour. do not miss the conversation. rolexes, clothes, the former
11:10 am
governor of virginia accused of accepting illegal gifts and this. he rejected a plea deal that would have saved his wife. in arizona, giving inmates bread and water. hear what he said they did in their cells. the state department warning american athletes, don't wear team usa gear outside of russia's ring of steel. this as we are two weeks away from the winter olympic games. that's next. i have low testosterone. there, i said it.
11:11 am
see, i knew testosterone could affect sex drive, but not energy or even my mood. that's when i talked with my doctor. he gave me some blood tests... showed it was low t. that's it. it was a number. [ male announcer ] today, men with low t have androgel 1.62% testosterone gel. the #1 prescribed topical testosterone replacement therapy increases testosterone when used daily. women and children should avoid contact with application sites. discontinue androgel and call your doctor if you see unexpected signs of early puberty in a child, or signs in a woman, which may include changes in body hair or a large increase in acne, possibly due to accidental exposure. men with breast cancer or who have or might have prostate cancer, and women who are or may become pregnant or are breast-feeding, should not use androgel. serious side effects include worsening of an enlarged prostate, possible increased risk of prostate cancer,
11:12 am
lower sperm count, swelling of ankles, feet, or body, enlarged or painful breasts, problems breathing during sleep, and blood clots in the legs. tell your doctor about your medical conditions and medications, especially insulin, corticosteroids, or medicines to decrease blood clotting. in a clinical study, over 80% of treated men had their t levels restored to normal. talk to your doctor about all your symptoms. get the blood tests. change your number. turn it up. androgel 1.62%. and our giant idaho potato truck is still missing. so my dog and i we're going to go find it. it's out there somewhere spreading the good word about idaho potatoes and raising money for meals on wheels. but we'd really like our truck back, so if you see it, let us know, would you? thanks. what?
11:13 am
. >> the winter olympics two weeks away. today we are talking about terror. the u.s. state department telling our american athletes to go easy on the american guard and a wade wearing team usa gear. mom of an olympic skater telling about the measures for athletes there. >> he said he is concerned. he's got concerns, but never said no, i you should stay home. they are cocooned in with the olympic village and security.
11:14 am
for lack of a better word, body guards. they have people watching their backs. >> back to the athletes. how safe are american tourists? the search continues on the ring of steel. many seem to have faith in this area. mid-romney who presided over the winter olympics in salt lake city is one example. >> would you go to sochi? >> the answer is yes. i believe the games are safe. that doesn't mean there is a 100% guarantee, but this is a dangerous corner of the world. the threats suggest that this is going to be an area that could be targeted and therefore there is a degree of risk associated with life today in a world where terrorism exists. >> here at cnn international
11:15 am
anchor and correspondent. we know about the memo for the team usa athletes. what about tourists or a mother of an athlete? >> the state department issued a warning to ordinary americans going to sochi to be on the look out. there is not a specific thread against americans, but if you are there, it would be smart not to stand out and wear a baseball cap with an american flag on the front. it's just basic security. basic precautions in a part of the world and mitt romney said it, it is sometimes dangerous and especially the olympic games in russia where you have insurgencies being wamged. it would be smart not to stand out. it's not just russia, but the it is east and parts of africa where americans are not popular. >> they keep talking about the
11:16 am
black widows focusing on the women. do we have an update on the search in. >> they are out there with the black widows. we saw the flyers handed out to other venues in sochi for people to be on the look out. this is all part of a wider fear and concern. we saw e-mail threats that were hoaxes and people have to take those seriously because of the concern for these insurgent and terrorist attacks. the black widows are out on the loose and the question is for the united states. one are they getting cooperation from the russian authorities. an official told reuters a few days ago, no, we are not. if there is, worst case scenario, there is an attack, how do you intervene and evacuate? all are contingency plans being thought of two weeks ahead of the games. >> just two weeks? >> no, now is two weeks ahead,
11:17 am
but it has been in the works. we have known sochi for a while. part of the reason that people are concerned, the state department is saying especially gay americans. you have the anti-propaganda laws as they are calling them. not to propagate gay propaganda. anybody advocating for equal rights for gays and straights in russia can be targeted. that can be something to keep in mind. >> two ways to go. thank you very much. >> coming up, jamie diamond got kwiz a raise this year. a whopping 74%. the bank paying millions in fines were asking the question why. former virginia governor bob donald and his wife pleading not guilty. they value at least $140,000. how do authorities say this whole thing began? we are learning it could have started with a single dress. more on that right after this. [ male announcer ] the new new york is open.
11:18 am
open to innovation. open to ambition. open to bold ideas. that's why new york has a new plan -- dozens of tax free zones all across the state. move here, expand here, or start a new business here and pay no taxes for ten years... we're new york. if there's something that creates more jobs, and grows more businesses... we're open to it. start a tax-free business at startup-ny.com.
11:21 am
first up, another ugly day on wall street. take a look at that. the dow down in the triple-digits that could be the worst week in 18 months. the big reasons, weak earnings here at home and slow downs overseas. jpmorgan chase didn't have that great of a year, but the ceo is being richly rewarded anyway in a government filing. top executive jamie diamond will get $18.5 million in stock as his bonus. they had to pay billions in fines or pose the raise. he was the highest paid in 2011 before a huge trading loss led to a pay cut. in the case of one arizona county bread and water is not just a prison cliche. the well-known sheriff there is punishing 38 inmates by feeding them only bread and water for
11:22 am
seven days. their offense? he said the prisoners defaced the american flag which was placed in their cells as part of his push to bring more patriotism into the county jail. procter & gamble, listen to this one. they blame movember for shaving its profits. they expel they have raised $433 million to help fight prostate cancer and a bright side for p and g, man scaping could be growth. they use one raise for for their face and you can use your imagine for the rest there. a rising star was arraigned in federal court. prosecutors charge the former governor that he was on the tape. they say his wife maureen also took illegal gifts and she like
11:23 am
her husband pleaded not guilty. there seems to be when you read into this, a lot of innuendo that maureen donald was enjoying living large and led her husband down the primrose path. you need to know this. even though they were holding hands this morning, they hired secret lawyers. before we chat, let me pull up an e-mail that seems to have everyone in the puntit world crowing. maureen mcdonnell said this. bob is screaming about the thousands i'm charging in credit card debt. we are broke. we have an unconscionable amount in credit card debt and this inaugural is killing us. that's where this whole thing started. maureen donnell needed a dress for the inauguration and reached out to a wealthy donor for help. from what you have seen of this indictment, is it unfair to
11:24 am
suggestion that this wife was her husband's undoing? >> i don't think that that is an unfair inference. i read this 43-page indictment and it is full of all these kinds of details. what is interesting to me the gifts made by the governor's wife and not necessarily by the governor. that is going to be important because we know she was not a government official. she was not the governor. she was the governor's wife. if the defense and we know that they have two defense attorneys, but if the defense in this is mrs. mcdonnell did a lot of these things and her husband didn't know anything about it, i think that's a pretty significant defense that would resonate with the jury. how many husbands on that jury are are not going to say i don't know what my wife buys.
11:25 am
my husband doesn't know everything i buy. >> let's keep it that way. >> let's say that more evidence against maureen donnell, the former first lady. the prosecutor. would it not be tempted here. try to nail the former governor since as a prosecutor, that's where you make it. right? >> that's not going to work in this case. they are a married couple. married couples can't be compelled to testify and their communications during the marriage are protected as well. i have to tell you, my understanding is that he reflected a plea offer to do exactly. and no charges against his wife because they think they have a good chance of beating this and looking at it even though this is in virginia, a place where i have some ties and connections or had some. it's a very good prosecutor's office, but this is not going to
11:26 am
be an easy case. >> sunny hostin. thank you very much. coming up, the gop is making an historic move announcing they will hold the republican national convention in june. why? coming up next, one of my favorite interviews of the day. one of the few people who is not afraid. come on out here. he tells it like it is. charles barkley. we will talk about everything. about richard sherman and the debate over the word thug. and video i'm sorry my friend. it's fun. don't miss this. charles barkley in studio 7. okay. let's train like it's race day. what's up ted?
11:28 am
i think i forgot to pay a bill. yep, paid that one. what about your mortgage? yep, paid that too. alright we're good then. man i feel like i'm forgetting something. eh, it's probably nothing. you worry too much ted. alright, hammer down! bank from almost anywhere with the citi mobile app. citi, with you every step of the way.
11:29 am
just about the bottom of the hour. you are watching cnn. i'm brooke baldwin. this is the guy who helped his team get into the super bowl. we have been talking about the 49ers. he made it into the game sunday and he went ballistic. i know you have seen this. >> don't you ever talk about me. >> who was talking about you. >> don't you open your mouth about the best. i will shut it for you real quick. >> i want you to watch the end of the game more time. making a great play against michael crab tree. you may have heard the two kind of have this history and i want
11:30 am
you to watch as richard sherman is about to run over to crab tree. here they were. sherman offered his hand. you can see it that way. saying nice game. michael crab tree blew him off and sherman went off a matter of seconds later. he said today his client stands to make a lot more money in endorsements and tonight cnn's rachel nichols unveiled her interview with sherman. we saw a piece of it earlier this week. good teams. >> thank you very much. as you said, the agent told cnn that richard's endorsement opportunities increased since this all happened. in fact, he said his client who by the way is a fifth round pick and defensive player. not they the kinds of people
11:31 am
with five million this off season. interesting to is sit down and catch the wave of reaction to him. there was a huge backlash against him after the outburst. there was a backlash against the backlash and making a point and saying how much they supported sherman. i was able to sit down and talk to him not only about the differing reactions, but how quickly race started to enter into it. some people throwing at him racial slurs and use of the n word and also that racial language as he put it, trying to put him in his place. he had a lot of smart things to say about that. take a listen. >> i think it used to be the n word. now they are using thug instead of the n word. as a more accepted way of saying it. it's sad. what was thug about what i did? i said something about guy, about a football game.
11:32 am
i didn't go talking about him like fighting the guy. i'm going to go blow his car up or anything like that. >> you can see the stanford education. talking about this and a lot of subjects. also just his journey. he started out in comp and went to stanford and made it in the nfl. it's really fascinating. >> the full interview with richard sherman as sit down with him one on one. talking about going the nba commissioner. 10:30 p.m. eastern. rachel nichols, as always, a pleasure. do you need an introduction. the legendary charles barkley. nice to see you. fresh off a plane. thank you for coming by. talking about richard sherman, so many times we watch the
11:33 am
post-game and the guys say great game did you think it was refreshing hearing a guy really speak his mind? >> that doesn't bother me at all. i thought it was in the heat of the moment. he said something earlier this week about he was glad he had a microphone on. that changed the dynamic of the relationship. that is going to make you mad. >> he wasn't going to shake his hand. he said good game in a different way. you think he meant that? >> you saw it on the tape. good game. good game and held his handout. that to me is i think people overreacted. it bothered me for the simple fact that a guy can go from class and go to stanford working on his masters and the 15 sound byte. people can get like that.
11:34 am
it's a learning lesson. you people they want to you stay in your place. it's like we like you as a player and you are all right, but i like the other things you said about when people throw the term around, thug, calling and him monkey and thing, that's pseudothe n word. >> we heard he said that is pseudo for the n word. >> of course it is. every black person knows that. a couple of people used that as a slur, but people also do say street things. >> think of tupac in the 90s, saying thug was cool. what changed? >> we have this great debate. i ooze the n word. we are not going to stop using it. i don't care what anybody says. we are going to use it. i know the difference when my
11:35 am
friends use it and somebody is trying to insult me. it's fascinating when we go back to no disrespect to pauley deen, people used the n word and they turn it on us. we know what it means towards each other. >> do you say thug? >> not really. not really. i'm not sure the context i would use it in. they use those terms and that's what they mean. >> what about the fact that there a lot of young kid who is want to be charles barkley and richard sherman and see what this outburst on the field did and it may change their perception of them. they said it was wrong and he reminded me of this chip of you 20 years ago.
11:36 am
>> i am not a role model. i'm not paid to be a role model. i'm paid to wreak havoc on the basketball court. parents should be role models. just because i dunk a basketball, doesn't mean i should raise your kids. >> all of the years later, do you stand by that? >> of course i do. the greatest thing i have done in my life. for some reason, i saw terrence on your show the other day and he doesn't have a clue what my commercial is. the only guy that got criticized are going kids to listen to their parents. that's how you know a lot of the parents are full of it. the reason i made the commercial. i knew it was going to start and i stick by that. for some reason, we got these black kids that are brainwashed. they told us we can only play
11:37 am
sports and be rappers. we can be doctors and lawyers and engineers and policemen. our only role models don't have to be jocks and entertainer. we famous black celebrities make so much money for the system, they pump us up and then when we screw up, they crucify us. i want these young black kids to know they don't have to be jay z or charles barkley or richard sherman. he went to stanford. they may not play in the nfl, but i want all of them to be like richard sherman. i am not sure i am smart enough to drive by stanfort. that's the reason i made the commercial. all our role models don't have to be jocks and entertainmenters. that's why i made it. i saw that and terrence doesn't have a clue. >> this is a long time sports california um nift. >> to a certain degree.
11:38 am
if your rids have success like me, you should be counting your blessings. i know i'm successful and so is richard sherman. not because he's a great football player. he seems like a good kid. >> stay with me. i'm not finished with you. i would love to talk celebrity culture and tempation. david stern is out with a question about the nba and a video you have to see, next. i bo
11:41 am
i want to continue. a fascinating conversation with you, charles barkley. let me pick up with celebrity culture. you lived the ups and downs. this week, the last 24 hours, have been inundated with the justin bieber news. knowing what you know now as a more mature self, what would you tell the charles barkley of 22, 23, 24. ? >> it's different now with the social media and cell phones. everything is out there now. everything is out there. guys try to break stories on celebrity and whether they are true or not rveths, it doesn't matter. everybody is making money. you are making money too now, don't get me wrong. everybody is making money. let's take justin bieber. he sells a lot of roars and they make money, he makes money.
11:42 am
when he does something like in miami, they make money also. fame is a very interesting thing. it's a big money maker for everyone. >> have you ever hated it? >> no because i think the pros outweigh the cons. when you grow up poor in alabama with a single mom and grandmother and two younger brothers, i didn't know what it entailed. my life has been amazing. i don't take anything personally. no social media. i don't worry about what everybody said. i will not do twitter and i don't do facebook and instagram and any of that stuff. i will never do it. i don't feel the need. the thing that has been more interesting, it doesn't matter what you say. half the people agree and half the people disagree. it's like you are a politician and a democrat. you can't make everybody happy.
11:43 am
one thing about the lime light is about being homecoming queen. all the ugly girls hate you. people dislike you for no reason. you don't have to give a reason. >> they hate you because they want to hate you. >> when i was in high school, me and my friends didn't like the smart kids. we didn't realize it's not their fault they are smart and doing well. it was our fault for not doing better. we were not jealous at the time. you are not sure what you word is. we don't like them because they have been chipper every day. i'm older now and it was not their fault we were not doing better. you don't be jealous of other people's accomplishments. that's the way it is in the lime light. people are going to take shots at you and i choose to not ever look at my computer and what everyone is saying. >> some are guilty themselves. you are not on social media.
11:44 am
they give the gifts on the platforms and that's fodder for everyone talking. let me switch gears because i want to talk basketball. we know david stern and the nba commissioner is almost finished. i'm curious would you want the job? >> no. i don't ever want a real job. i will be in a couple of weeks. i never had a real job. let me say this about commissioner stern. i faced his wrath five or six times for doing stupid stuff. he's an amazing man. he came into the nba the same year together. as he leaves 30 years later, the average salary is $5.5 million. we are a global game. we have hundreds and hundreds of countries. he has done a remarkable job. to look in the 80s, they looked at the pseudo, a bunch of thugs doing drugs and blah blah blah. they started the ripple effect
11:45 am
and michael jordan took it to a new level. you have kobe and lebron and those guys. what he has done, like i said, they take the average salary of 400 players in the nba. you take the average salary from $250 thousand thousand to 5.5 million is remarkable. >> the one thing if change it, what would it be? >> for kids to stay in college longer. i think we bring a lot of guys who were not mentally or physically ready. college is a good time and it's not always just about the money. i don't hate on people for wanting money, god bless them. we are not putting a good product out there. the nba is not where i want to be. i'm a fan first and foremost. >> have you seen the reports. my own alma mater. specifically reading at a
11:46 am
remedial level in college. >> brooke, that's the thing. listen, i'm not going to hate on basketball. basketball has given me everything in my life. we have a system in place. we have a lot of young kids making billions and billions of dollars for the people up top. they are not getting educated. that's what i talk about. i don't want them thinking they are going to be charles barkley. the schools have not done a good job. >> what are about the teachers and the parents? >> listen, i tell the parents are the role models. i'm glad you showed the whole thing. most people said i'm not a role model. >> we are seeing it. come on. >> i told the kids, listen to your parents. your parents are the most influential people in your life. they are under tremendous stress to win, make money and win. you can graduate all your
11:47 am
players. if don't win, you are going to get fired. it's the unique dynamic and the bottom line is these colleges have to do a better job educating the players. less than one% is going to play. i'm not worried about that 1%. i'm worried about the 99%. >> this is getting deep. >> i like deep. >> before we go, just for fun, roll the video. >> oh, my goodness. >> what? charles, what is that? >> i got -- >> play it again. pause, pause, pause, and wait. boom! >> i don't know what's worse. my golf swing or how fat i was back then. >> where did you learn that? >> it's not learned. it's a subliminal screw up basically. it's a subliminal screw up.
11:48 am
i love playing golf though. >> this is my -- my form post swing. i'm not great. this is the biggest difet ever. i took a chunk out of the grass. >> as long as you play golf, people know i play golf and fish a lot. those are the places i can get peace and quiet. i love fishing and golfing. i don't worry about sucking at gulf. >> there bigger things. bronches ones or seahawks? >> i haven't decided. i'm going to bet on the game, but i haven't decided. broncos started off as an underdog and now they are a 2 1/2 point favorite. i will study how everything goes. i haven't made a decision. >> you are betting on the game? >> what do you think football is for? >> how much does charles barkley bet. >> i can't tell you. my grandmother -- it's going to be at least a couple ofs. you have to make it worth your while. i love football.
11:49 am
football and boxing and mma are my three favorite sports because it takes courage to get out there. it takes tremendous courage to do those sports and they are my favorite sports. >> fishing, golfing, and charles barkley, such a pleasure. we should do this weekly. let's have a date weekly. >> come on. >> thank you so much. >> thanks for having me. >> on that, we will be back after this.

>> the republican party approved a plan to hold their big convention in 2016 in june. it's normally late in the summer. here he is right here. he said the change will put republican voters in the driver's seat, not the liberal media. gloria borger joins me now from washington. gloria, the obvious is why do this. maybe you can tell us what he is talking about, this contest out of what he is calling the hands of liberal media. >> what he is trying to do is exert control over the process by which they nominate a candidate. there was a widespread feeling among republican that is the primary process was way too elongated and the convention was
11:53 am
too late. mitt romney could not spend enough money. there a couple of things going on. condensing the primary process. instead of months to about four months. that mean fewer debates. he is probably talking about debates and he is probably talking about stories that can be written about republicans attacking republicans. when have a long primary process. the reason they moved up the convention to june as opposed to august is that they can have access to general election money. if you will recall last time, mid-romney was betting hit on bane capital and he couldn't get access to his big pile of general election monuntil right after the convention. he went all summer without being able to answer the ads in the
11:54 am
way he wanted to. it was a big problem. >> what else? it was a big loss for the republicans in 2012. how else does this moving it outfit with what they have? >> so part of it is the mechanics of moving it up so republicans don't form circular firing squads and hurt themselves and the party. that's what people believe occurred last time during the primaries. the other part -- you have the mechanics. the other part is the policy side. what he is trying to do is start reaching out to those minority voters and the younger voters. they haven't been able to reach out to. he has minority outreach plans in 16 states. for example, what he can't prevent though is a potential presidential candidate like mike huckabee talking about women's libidos as he did yesterday.
11:55 am
he can't control the language of candidates. he did say we have to be careful, but there things he can control and that's what he is trying to do. he is saying i will make this easier for a republican to get elected president. >> so they hope. thank you very much. back in a minute. kibble blend. with 20% fewer calories than purina dog chow. isn't it time you discovered the lighter side of dog chow. purina dog chow light & healthy. mayo? corn dogs? you are so outta here! aah!

12:24 pm
specifically. >> so soon after the season started and i signed this legal contract as you say, i started having feelings that maybe things were not so legal. i was working three times a week with practices and going to events and paying so much money out of pocket. at that moment, i realized this is a lot different than the nba. i didn't have oust pocket expenses when i danced for the golden state warriors and paid an hourly wage and it didn't matter if it was practice or photo shoots. i received a paycheck every two weeks. my husband said lacey, let's get a second opinion on this. at that moment when i sat down with this great team of lawyers, they said this contract has the most illegal provisions i have seen in an employment contract. we have been working in employment law for 25 years. when you say it's binding and all that, when you take into

12:26 pm
is not cheap. is there any one thing that the oakland raiders we will give you this to take the lawsuit away, what would it be? >> i don't know. it's not about money. it's about them paying everyone on the team for the hours that we worked and to change the contract to where next year's raider ets get paid every two weeks. >> so it is about making more money? >> i'm sorry. what was that? >> it is a little bit about making more money. >> obviously we are working really hard and we are extremely talented and it is a competitive job. it is a job whether it's a part-time or full time job. any hour you work in a week, you expect to be paid under the law. >> we will follow this with you and see if you get what you want. lacey t, thank you so much. oakland raider et. it's a controversial case making

12:31 pm
all over this with texas, we know the hearing is in about 45 minutes. me about the developments. >> just here as you mentioned in a few minutes, the moment in this case that has been going on since late november, in court filings that were filed a short while ago, attorneys for the hospital and for eric mun oez filed paperwork stipulating to the facts that they will agree to in today's hearing. two significant portions of the documents include the hospital acknowledging for the first time what the family said all along. she is brain dead and has been brain dead since november 28th, two days after she collapsed of an apparent blood clot this her lungs in her house in the middle of the night. the paperwork said a paramedic was able to revive her, but two years later, she succumbed and
12:32 pm
has been brain dead. the hospital official also agreed with what the attorneys for eric mun owes has been saying. the fetus about 22 weeks along is not viable. it does not appear any chance this fetus will survive in any way. attorneys for the family will argue as well that that is regardless, beside the point in this law and regardless of the condition of this fetus that because she is dead, this texas law that the hospital is citing does not apply to her and the family should have been allowed to turn off the ventilators and let her go. what they are asking the judge for and what they will have an answer for in this case is the family wants her disconnected from the vendilators. she is a few miles from where they are in the intensive care unit. they want the ventilators turned
