5:01 am
dissed, backlash against the staffer who trashed sasha and malia. rise and shine, we're glad to have you with us. i'm christi paul. >> i'm victor blackwell. 8:00 on the east coast. we're starting with officer darren wilson no longer a member of the police force in ferguson, missouri. >> wilson resigned five days now after a grand jury decided not to indict him for killing unarmed teenager michael brown. his lawyer tells cnn wilson feared for the police department itself which apparently had been threatened with violence had he stayed. >> wilson said he hopes his departure will "allow the community to heal." as protests continue overnight a lot of people are saying it's not enough. >> we want to bring in ed lavandera live in ferguson. was wilson forced out? >> reporter: well, a lot of people did not envision in any way how darren wilson would continue to be a police officer
5:02 am
here in ferguson. we have been reporting for several weeks that there have been talks in the works behind the scenes planning the departure of darren wilson. last night he released a statement "i have been told my continued employment may put the residents and police officers of the city of ferguson at risk, which is a circumstance that i cannot allow." he goes on to say in that statement "it was my hope to continue in police work but the safety of other police officers and the community are of paramount importance to me." darren wilson says he never wanted to be anything else other than a police officer, and his lawyers say now he'll have to try to find another line of work but reaction to this news last night as it came down, you might imagine many people critical over darren wilson over the last few months say it shouldn't have taken this long. >> my reaction to wilson resigning today is he should have been fired and in jail a long time ago for the murder of mike brown. >> it took too long. >> that's 112 days late.
5:03 am
thank goodness, we are so glad. he should have been fired on day one, once all the word came out of him shooting mike brown, i think they should have not put him on leave. i think he should have resigned or they should have fired him. >> reporter: and crisi, darren wilson's attorneys were telling us last night that one of the reasons the timing of this announcement why it was made yesterday, there were these threats coming in to the city of ferguson and the police department if darren wilson did not resign by saturday night, so those lawyers making it clear that that was one of the reasons behind the timing of that announcement, and as many people have been critical of darren wilson and have been critical of the grand jury's decision not to indict him, they also say they're hopeful something might come of the federal investigation into the shooting death of michael brown as well. crisi and victor? >> ed, do we know specifically what the threats were to the city and police department and are those threats now gone since
5:04 am
he is? >> reporter: we don't know what the specific threat was, and we haven't been told or got any more detail on that, coming from darren wilson's attorneys but we do know, officials have been telling us over the last few months that the issues of threats and the issues of threats against darren wilson have been very real for more than the last three months since the shooting happened back in august and that is something all sides around here have been dealing with since then. >> ed lavandera, thank you so much for all the clarity this morning. we appreciate it. maybe you heard, president obama said that better police training and diversity in law enforcement forces is what's needed to build the trust between police and the community. >> so he's sending attorney general eric holder to atlanta tomorrow to hold the first of several meetings to discuss these kinds of issues. >> cnn's erin mcpike is live from the white house. erin, what is the plan for handling the situation, not just in ferguson, but with
5:05 am
communities and these protests around the country? >> reporter: victor and crisi, president obama is looking to the justice department to lead the way in promoting better race relations across the country and with law enforcement and he explained that on monday night after the grand jury reached its decision. listen here. >> the fact is, in too many parts of this country, a deep distrust exists between law enforcement and communities of color. some of this is the result of the legacy of racial discrimination in this country, and this is tragic, because nobody needs good policing more than poor communities with higher crime rates. the good news is, we know there are things we can do to help, and i've instructed attorney general holder to work with cities across the country to help build better relations between communities and law enforcement. >> reporter: now tomorrow for
5:06 am
holder's meeting, he will be meeting with students and religious leaders as well as police and other members of law enforcement to break down barriers between all of these groups. we should also point out these meetings are going tomorrow at the ebenezer baptist church in atlanta, where martin luther king jr. and his father preached and i would also point out that president obama, when he was a senator, also spoke there, crisi and victor. >> erin mcpike at the white house for us, thank you so much. every now and then you see something that stops you in your tracks, right, something that might really help put things in perspective, because we get a bit distracted with things superficial sometimes. that's what a lot of people are saying about this photo putting things in perspective. white officer there hugging an african-american boy during a ferguson protest. this is in portland, oregon. look at that boy's face. this is a story about how this hug came about that's even more intriguing. >> you want to tune in to cnn
5:07 am
later today 3:00 p.m. eastern when the officer and this now famous photograph talks with our fredricka whitfield about what that hug was all about, how it happened, and the feelings and conversation in that moment. again that's 3:00 p.m. eastern today. >> boy, that little boy's face certainly said a lot. >> absolutely. let's get you caught up with some other stories making news with your morning read. >> the u.s.-led coalition battling isis launched at least 30 air strikes overnight in the northern syrian city of raqa. it marks a sharp increase in coalition activity there. recent attacks on isis in syria focuseded on the city of kobani. new hope for an ebola vaccine. scientists say 20 healthy adults received an experimental ebola rack seen, just an experimental one, it's in the first phase of human trials. all of them produced antibodies

5:13 am
finally reunited. >> police went to a home in atlanta area friday after getting a phone tip. they didn't find anything but you know what? they just couldn't shake something, we don't know what happened but they went back a second time >> and while they were there, the boy sent a text to his mother, who was in florida. she told police to look behind a false wall in that house and that's when police found him. the boy's dad and four other people are under arrest. mark wynn of wsb has more for us. >> we opened the compartment where he was and i saw him and asked him to come forward and he was horrified. he was frozen with fear. >> good police work and hard determination by the victim, who wanted to be reunified with his mother. >> he retreated away from us until he knew those people weren't around him. >> reporter: she says the child reached out for rescue. joanne sutherland, police sergeant, says a 13-year-old boy
5:14 am
downloaded a phone app so he could text his mother in florida he hadn't seen in four years. >> we had got a welfare check in reference to a child saying he was beaten. we came here to the home and were able to get inside the home, talk to the people inside, after several minutes of denying that the child was here, that his existence was here, that there was ever any assault or anything like that, we were able to find him in the linen closet. >> police department did an excellent job by coming out here and responding to the 911 emergency call. we have five individuals who have been charged with various charges >> i just can't believe it that we found him, we saw him. it was, to say it was a great feeling was an understatement. >> reporter: what did he say to you? >> he couldn't say enough, he was just like thank you, thank you, thank you, just overjoyed we had found him. >> reporter: the biological father and stepmother faced
5:15 am
charges of false imprisonment, cruelty to a child and obstruction. >> children abused need to reach out by any means necessary, whether it be cell or text to get help and don't stop. we will find you. >> that was wsb's mark winne reporting for us. the boy's father and stepmother are scheduled to appear in court next hour. all right guys, brace yourself for that other thanksgiving ritual, i know, the overcrowded airports if you're there already, we feel for you. today is expected to be the busiest travel day of the year for those of you who are flying according to a group that represents some of the nation's biggest airlines. >> jennifer gray joins us now a weather and travel forecast, so the roads are expected to be better than the skies or vice versa? who has the better end of the stick? >> it all depends on where you are. we know that if there's trouble along the east coast it can mean destruction in airlines all across the country. good news is the east coast is looking fantastic today. we have partly cloudy skies, temperatures in the 50s and 60s.
5:16 am
the south looks amazing. we have very cold temperatures in the northern plains, of course it's not really going to affect your air travel but if you are on the roads, it could make things a little bit on the dicey side. we are looking at rain and snow left over from yesterday. it did snow in the pacific northwest yesterday, not snowing anymore. some of that snow could be on the ground but we are looking at maybe some problems from the rockies and points west so california getting some rain today. they need it, but look at the east side of the country. this is your satellite and radar barely even a cloud in the sky across much of the country. we're looking at temperatures feeling well below zero across the northern plains. 25 below zero in minot, feels like 20 below in bismarck. teens and single digits in minneapolis today and tomorrow, those are high temperatures and looking at temperatures in the mid-70s in the south. so quite a difference there. here is that rain pushing in. you could see delays anywhere
5:17 am
from san francisco all the way up to northern california, because of the rain, a little bit of snow, and some of those higher elevations, that system's going to push onshore, i don't think anyone in california is complaining today because you could get anywhere from three to five inches north of san francisco, points south about an inch or two, even picking up some rain in portions of oregon. so guys, this is excellent news for california, you may have a couple of delays because of it but we need the rain so bad. >> all right, jennifer, thank you so much. president obama takes a lot of heat. >> yes. >> he's got obamacare, isis, immigration and even wearing a tan suit. >> yes but are his daughters fair game? hear how harshly a gop staffer criticized the girl's demeanor and their style.

5:21 am
a senior gop staffer harshly criticized the nation's first daughters, malia and sasha. >> now she is getting slammed right back on social media and she's apologizing, we understand, but we're talking about elizabeth lawton, the communications director for tennessee congressman steve pitchinger. she criticized the teens for looking bored at wednesday's turkey presidential pardon and put a long post on facebook which we have for you. >> "dear sasha and malia, i get you're both in those awful teen years but you're a part of the first family. try showing a little class, at least respect the part you play, then again your mother and father don't respect their positions very much or the nation for that matter so i'm guessing you're coming up in a little short in the "good role model" department.
5:22 am
nevertheless, stretch yourself. rise to the occasion. act like being in the white house matters to you. dress like you deserve respect and not a spot at a bar. and certainly don't make faces during televised public events. let's bring in cnn senior media correspondent brian stelter the host of "reliable sources." people on twitter accuse lawton of cyberbullying the obama daughters. they are furious. is an apology enough here? >> i would be surprised if they go any further. we haven't heard from the congressman that she works for but this is another reminder that what happens on facebook does not stay on facebook. you know, what she was saying, lots of other people in the country feel. lot of folks who support that congressman also feel that the president doesn't respect the country and that the first daughters, you know, should have put a smile on their face or something, but that's outrageous to say on facebook, especially when you're working for a member of congress. so i don't think she's going to lose her job.
5:23 am
i think they're probably going to stick with this apology but it's just another example of social media's risks as well as rewards. >> it's gone viral obviously on twitter and some tweeting she should be fired usin using #fireelizabethlawton. should children of presidents or politicians, should they be off limits at the end of the day? unless they do something criminal or something but should they be off limits? >> historically they have and that has continued to be the case with the obama daughters. we don't see them very often. we don't see where they go to school. they don't see them with their friends. the press, the white house press corps is very respectful of them in the same way they were respectful of the bush daughters and many others before them and that's the way it should work. they didn't choose to be living in the white house. their parents did, but they didn't. that's why it's such a breach of protocol and why so many people are outraged by it. some people may agree with the
5:24 am
criticism of the parents but of the children, that is a different matter entirely. >> so lawton apologized, she says that after "many hours of prayer" she can see how hurtful her words were. some are saying the apology is not sincere. we've got a tweet here and this person tweeted "i know i'm late, but just read elizabeth lawton's comments and the so-called apology and i am so mad, those public comments are unacceptable." so we'll just have to take her for her word on that apology. i want to move on to something else, an interesting conversation about bill cosby coming up on your show. >> on "reliable sources" we spoke to a writer who wrote about the sexual assault allegations in 2006. one of the interesting stories to me why the women weren't taken more seriously much sooner. we live in a different age than decades ago but that can't be the reason why it suddenly became a big national scandal this month but not many years ago.
5:25 am
we'll talk to the writer about that. even though as you all know ferguson dominated the news in the past week, the bill cosby news sort of faded away a little bit, continues to be repercussions from that story, other universities have severed their ties with bill cosby, some of his performances have been scrapped. he's actually performing here in new york next week and they're going to offer refunds to people for that one. it's the kind of story that continues to develop even though we're not hearing as much about it anymore. >> brian stelter, thank you so much. >> thanks. >> be sure to join him for "reliable sources" at 11:00 this morning on cnn. we see a lot of disguises when bad guys commit crimes. nothing like this. so if you look closely, this guy's wearing a werewolf mask and price to trying to figure out who this gunman is who shot up a check cashing business. was just named gof motor trend's 2015 car of the year. so was the 100% electric e-golf, and the 45 highway mpg tdi clean diesel.
5:26 am
and last but not least, the high performance gti. looks like we're gonna need a bigger podium. the volkswagen golf family. motor trend's 2015 "cars" of the year. ugh... ...heartburn. did someone say burn? try alka seltzer reliefchews. they work just as fast and are proven to taste better than tums smoothies assorted fruit. mmm... amazing. yeah, i get that a lot. alka seltzer heartburn reliefchews. enjoy the relief.
5:29 am
bottom of the hour now and so grateful for your company as always. i'm christi paul. >> i'm victor blackwell. pleasure to be with you. [ speaking in foreign language ] >> five things you need to know this morning starting with number one in egypt, one man has been killed during protests after a court dropped all criminal charges against former had the hosni mubarak. mubarak had been convicted in 2012 of issuing orders to kill peaceful protesters during the country's uprising, but he appealed and was granted a new trial last year. the prosecutor told state media that he will appeal this verdict. number two, in qatar an american couple convicted in the
5:30 am
death of their adopted daughter has won an court. they were charged with starving her to death but the couple said their daughter suffered from an eating disorder. they were convicted and sentenced to three years in prison. a woman shot by her former boyfriend in a chicago nordstrom's store has died. nordstrom confirmed her death and posted a message for the family on their facebook page. the store was packed with shoppers when the man shot the woman and turned the gun on himself, that was friday. the shooter died at the scene. number four, look at this werewolf mask-wearing gunman because there's a massive manhunt in southern california for him right now. police say he went through the rear door of a check cashing business that was closed for renovation at the time and he shot a construction worker. the bullet grazed the 58-year-old victim who has since been released from the hospital thankfully. >> number five, the officer who shot and killed michael brown has resigned from the police department in ferguson,
5:31 am
missouri. darren wilson said he feared staying on the force would endanger his fellow officers. now the grand jury decided last week not to indict wilson in brown's death, a federal investigation, two federal investigations are ongoing. >> in his resignation letter wilson says he hopes his departure will "allow the community to heal." some say wilson's departure 112 days after brown's death is simply not enough. we'll talk to harry jackson jr. from hope church in maryland and member of the high-impact coalition leader. thank you for being with us. >> thank you for having me. >> of course. what is your reaction to wilson's resignation and is it enough to help this community heal? >> well, i think it's a good first step that he gets out of the picture, but there are long-term problems in ferguson. i was there last weekend and for
5:32 am
the aunnoment of the grand jury's decision, and i believe that a bridges to peace program that is just beginning with numerous churches around the metro st. louis area will be part of the answer. they're going to have a community engagement process where black, white churches, hispanic churches come together and they reach out to the poor. they've got generational poverty there. the amazing number of dropouts from high school and people who only have high school diplomas are huge, and they have in the greater region well over a third of the people are at or below the poverty level, so educational problems, economic problems, historic injustices are part of the landscape. so mlk gave us six principles of nonviolence, and he really
5:33 am
called for a group, the church has got to be the bridge to bring reconciliation and peace, and then befriend your enemy, quote/unquote, is what king said as a way of beginning the process of healing. those are just some initial thoughts that we've had in this bridges to peace initiative is, was conceived right before the grand jury and they're having a major organizing meeting this next weekend. i'm quite excited about that. >> well, we know that underlying all the fear there and the anger is most likely a sense that people don't feel they're being heard. >> yes. >> if you were in that community, what did you hear from them specifically and how open do you think they are to this bridge program that you're talking about? >> well, i think that they were very concerned just as you say that the average person wasn't
5:34 am
being heard. young people especially want to change their options, their opportunities, jobs, upward mobility, and it seems like the specter of racism was what most black people in the region were dealing with, and i think this season that violence was unfortunate, but that venting of the pent-up anger was what you saw, and i think that they're going to be opening positive train tracks can be laid out so that we could have forward motion toward real peace. i think that's critical. there have to be groups like this that give specific steps of interaction or we really won't see anything positive come forth and we will and looking for the next trayvon martin, michael brown shooting in the future, unfortunately. >> well, we know attorney general eric holder is going to be in atlanta tomorrow.
5:35 am
dr. martin luther king's former church, for this first in a series of meetings that will be focused on policing in communities of color. what do you think he should say? how should he approach this conversation? >> i think he should approach the conversation by saying that justice is going to be served when individual citizens are treated with love and respect and proper protocol by the police, but also there have got to be some community forums in which the community is given an opportunity to interact about what their rights are, and i think that that spirit of reconciliation should try to permeate what he says. i think it's a good move that he's going to talk to the police and talk to policemen about how they conduct themselves. i think also they should use, commute groups and churches, to educate people about what their
5:36 am
rights and their responsibilities are. i think those are some great beginning steps. >> all righty, bishop kerry jackson jr., so good to hear your voice today. thank you for being part of the conversation. >> thank you for having me. >> certainly. the pope and the leader of the world's orthodox christians say they cannot resign themselves to a middle east without christians. >> they say christians are being persecuted and they're calling for tolerance among all religions. we're taking you live to istanbul next.
5:40 am
persecutions of crustihristians the middle east. >> in a joint declaration the pope and the head of the world's orthodox christians said they're worried about the situation in iraq, syria, and the middle east. let's bring in senior international correspondent arwa damon in istanbul. tell us more about this declaration, arwa. >> reporter: well we have to look at the current situation of christians in the middle east to reallied and appreciate what it is stemming from. the levels of persecution are something that we haven't seen arguably in the last -- first by al qaeda, then isis and iraq and syria, forcing the vast majority of christians from their homes directly under threat, having been attacked numerous times. the two issuing this statement coming from the pope and the patriarch, they're saying we cannot resign ourselves to a middle east without christians who have professed the name of
5:41 am
jesus there for 2,000 years. many of our brothers and sisters are being persecuted and have been forced violently from their homes. it seems that the value of human life has been lost and the human person no longer matters and may be sacrificed to others' interests and tragically, all this is met by the indifference of many. they then go on to say that they are concerned not just for the plight of christians who are in the middle east and that notion that this is indifferent to many. that's something that we have been hearing echoed time and time again from refugees from iraq and from syria, from christians, from muslims and from everyone, who have been suffering the brunt of the violence, whether it's violence brought on by isis, by the assad regime, by rebels, by various different sects. this is a region that has been mired in violence and this persecution of the christians is just one of the many devastating consequences. >> all right, arwa damon reporting for us in istanbul,
5:42 am
arwa, thank you. there are alarming, new discoveries about the number of drones that are in the sky and not just how many are there but how close they're getting to passenger airlines. >> take a look at this, between february 22nd and november 11th of this year, the faa says there have been 193 reports of drone sightings during flights. in october alone, 41 pilots reported seeing a drone or unmanned aircraft in the sky. >> cnn's candy crowley joins us from washington. you hear this, what a risk to travelers. what is the faa doing about it? >> they're studying it. in 2012, congress passed a law that said we need to set up regulations for these drones, how high they can fly, who can fly them, what they need to know before they can fly them because they're remote controlled. as far as the faa is concerned,
5:43 am
the federal aviation administrati administration, they will have regulations put out for public comment by the end of this year, but in the meantime, as you can see, you see sort of an increased awareness and increased if not alarm, at least concern from pilots both commercial and private about the number that are up there and the close calls that are happening and i keep thinking do you remember what caused sully sullenberger to have to land that plane on the hudson was geese. >> yes. >> so you know, a drone about this big, you know? >> yes. >> some of them, and the biggest fear obviously is taking off and coming down, because that's, you know, landing and taking off, because drones can, you know, are flying at that height. >> yes, exactly. very good thought. listen, we understand that you're interviewing some of the top police chiefs in the country, that brimminging the trust gap between police and the communities they serve, this in the wake of ferguson grand jury decision. what do you hope to hear from them? >> i want to talk about that
5:44 am
whole black and blue dynamic, and it's minorities as well, hispanics and latinas. we're talking to police chiefs from dallas and detroit, the former commissioner of new york city, bernie kerik, as well as the police chief from montgomery county just to say, so one thing we know is there is huge mistrust in minority communities for policemen. what do you do? you know, without trust, what have you got, nothing, right? so how do you do that. that's what i want to talk to them about. >> good conversation. candy crowley, thank you so much. >> thank you. >> sure. stay here for "state of the union" with candy, starts at the top of the hour, 9:00 a.m. eastern right here on cnn. don't anybody step up here until i walk out of here! >> it's just a tv. it's a television. calm down. if the black friday insanity is not for you, maybe this is. >> you can snag the best deals right from your couch. you don't need to deal with this.
