alabama quarterback brice young as the number one pick in the nfl draft. bama also producing the third and 12th picks in the first round. much more to talk about with that. "cnn this morning" starts right now. >> so i know one thing about the draft last night. >> which is? >> which is not even who the vikings drafted. it's how alabama, the teammates responded when he was the first draft pick. has this never happened before there? >> in the modern era, alabama has not a first round draft pick. the first time that nick saban had which is hard to believe. obviously, brice young is amazing. there is a reason he is the number one pick. but as a human, he has this amazing off the field reputation. and he's very humble and it's just lovely to see him succeed and have that moment that he did last night.

>> i just love your energy around this. this is the most excited i've seen you besides an election night. >> i was on a plane last night. >> it's for you. >> huge news in -- on the political front. historic testimony from mike pence, donald trump's own former vice president. testifying before federal grand jury about the former president's attempts to overturn the 2020 election. this is the first time ever that is a vice president has been compelled to do this. pence is now the highest ranking official from the trump white house to be questioned by the special counsel, jack smith, in that probe. the source tells cnn pence testified for more than five hours. he could be crucial witness, we already know he rejected trump's demands to block the certification of joe biden's victory on january 6. we heard testimony that trump chewed him out in that heated phone call on the morning of january 6th. these are photos of trump making that call in the oval office.

>> hang mike pence! >> then we watched as they stormed the capitol. he was forceded to run for his life, hunkering down in a secure underground location. let's begin with our senior crime and justice reporter. we say historic. what is note sabl after trying resist a subpoena, after court attempts by pence and trump, he had to talk. and this had is a firsthand account. it is not second hand. it is a firsthand account. >> this was not a surprise. mike pence said he was willing to testify and went through the court system. we got the order on wednesday night that said that the appeals court was not going to let donald trump block his testimony anymore. but there was still so much anticipation around this because this is a moment to mark for a

lot of reasons for the investigation. and then also when you look back at criminal investigations around the presidency, there never has been a vice president forced to testify against or about the president that they serve next to. this was really an unusual day. there was a lot of antic anticipation -- around the courthouse specifically. pence came in early, before 9:00. he was there the entire day. we never saw him. we never saw his lawyers. he was with that secret grand jury testifying for more than five hours. they got to ask him a lot of questions. prosecutors got to probe a lot about direct conversations. he would have had with donald trump. and other things he would have witnessed leading up to january 6. so that, is really a significant moment for the investigation itself. they've been seeking this testimony for a long time. >> i know that he said after the court ruled in his argument

that, you know, i was head of the senate. and, so, i can't answer questions because of the speech or debate clause in the constitution. he said that was sort of a win from the court for him, meaning, he couldn't answer some questions. do we know the extent? i know it's a secret grand jury so probably not. to questions he could or couldn't be asked or answered yesterday? >> we do a little bit because of reporting we've done about how the court rulings play out here. we don't know what was asked in the grand jury. it is a secret proceeding. his team is not acknowledging that he has gone in and testified. what we have seen from the court rulings previously is that he is protected when he was president of the senate. what we believe is when he was on capitol hill presiding over that senate proceeding. but, he can talk about any time

donald trump may have been acting corruptly. that is very likely the conversations where they were pressuring him. >> okay. great reporting. thank you very much. and breaking overnight, three american soldiers are dead and one is injured. two military helicopters collided over alaska. it happened as they were returning from a training flight near haley which is about 100 miles south of fort waynewright. that's where the apache helicopters are based as part of the aviation regiment. the second deadly military helicopter collision in two months. late march two blackhawk helicopters with the 101st airborne division crashed during a training mission nearing the kentucky-tennessee border. at that point, nine soldiers were killed. >> thinking of them and their families. >> the legislatures and two very red states failed to advance restrictive abortion bills within hours of one another. it was in south carolina and

nebraska who helped block the bills. look at this. both state bodies dominated by republicans by a 2-1 ratio. both of these areas went for trump by ten points in the last election. but let's take a closer look at nebraska specifically. state senator there posted this video after that six-week abortion ban failed by a single vote after one of her republican colleagues abstained from voting. he raised concerns about the ban being too early for women to know they were pregnant. he warned fellow republicans about political backlash over abortion bans. then in south carolina, the state's five female senators filibustered against a bill that would have banned all abortions there. here is state senator who i should note is a republican. >> abortion laws have always been, each and every one of them, about control. it's always about control. plain and simple. and in the senate, the males all have control. we the women have not asked for

as the senator from orangeburg pointed out yesterday, nor do we want your protection p. we don't need it. >> quite blunt words there. south carolina legislation there failed on a 22-21 vote. next, we want to talk about another case for president trump. lawyers grilled the woman accusing him of rape asking her why she didn't scream or report the assault to police. columnist e. jean carroll took the stand for a second emotional day in court yesterday. this time for cross-examination. ca carroll told trump's attorneys she was too panicked to scream in the moment. i'm telling you, he raped me whether i screamed or not. i don't he need an excuse for not screaming. carroll is suing the former president for battery and defamation. she says he raped her in a dressing room in the mid 1990s. trump denies the claim calling it, quote, a scam and hoax.

cnn's reporter is here. kara, you've been watching this closely. what else did the attorneys try to focus on during this cross-examination? >> the screaming is the most intense part of the cross-examination. they asked her repeatedly why she didn't scream. she said you can't beat me up for not screaming. some women scream, some don't. it was a real intense moment. >> that is a good approach in terms of cross-examination of a rape victim. >> right. that's the thing that stood out here. it was clear he was going for it. he was going to challenge these details. he wasn't going to wear kid gloves. he was respectful. it wasn't beatinger h her up tyf thing. he was trying to dissect what happened step-by-step during this alleged rape asking, you know, how did you push off the man who weighed twice as much as you wearing four inch heels and holding a band bag and not ripping your tights? really trying to question the entire validity of this.

trump's defense is this never happened. he also is going after her motives. asking her and she agreed, she only went public with the story -- she said this happened in 1996. he is saying why can't you give us an exact date? you're not allowing him to have an alibi. you only went public when you z decided to write a book about this. >> what was her demeanor like on the stand? >> yeah. she is somewhat of a, you know, has a theatrical way of speaking. she is very fullsome in descriptions. she remained composed throughout the whole time. the only time that we have seen her become emotional was when she was pushing back on, you know, why she -- the feeling of being attacked because why she didn't scream. but she does dig in at times. when asked, you know, why now? you are coming forward? he's the most powerful man in the world in 2019 as the president. you wouldn't do it in the mid 90s when he was just a businessman. she was inspired by the women that came forward in the me too

movement. at the time is when the hafrvey weinstein victims came forward. that inspired her. >> thank you so much. >> thanks, care why. home owners in the florida panhandle are waking up to see the damage hleft behind from a tornado. this is east of tallahassee with large hail, powerful winds and drone footage. 12 homes were wiped out, flattened. another 20 were damaged. witnesses say that one person was also struck by lightning in the middle of this on the pier in panama city beach. >> there were two men walking down the pier and lightning struck first time behind them and missed. they hunkered down. and then within about five or ten seconds, the second one hit and it actually struck one of the men. >> officials say the man remains in critical condition at the hospital this morning. also this morning, you have 40 million people under the threat of severe storms.

>> 14 people killed including a toddler after russia unleashed a barrage of missiles across ukraine. we're tracking the latest developments. >> and the university of alabama set a new nfl draft record with bryce young. >> you're the highest player drafted out of alabama in the dmon draft era and number one overall pick. how does it sound? >> it's still crazy. ♪ the biggest ideas inspire new ones. 30 years ago, state strereet created an etf that inspired the world to invest differently. it still does. what can you do with spy? ♪ ♪ before... and bath fitter. now's the time to call bath fitter to get a beautiful “after.”

with the first pick in the 2023 nfr 2 2023 nfl draft, the carolina panthers select bryce young, alabama. >> no surprise. an amazing moment as bryce young was taken first in this year's nfl draft. the beginning of a very big night for the crimson tide recruits and nick saban. young is the first of three alabama players selected in the top 12 of the first round. further cementing alabama's dominance as a destination for future pros. i can say this with no bias. joining us is investigative reporter and cultural critic who is also a former sports columnist at the "new york daily news." thank you for being here. i promise this whole segment is not about alabama. >> she'll not be able to stick with that promise. prepare yourself. >> but, i was like going on a spree last night watching. this i was so excited just to

see bryce young. no surprise. but still amazing to watch this. isn't it crazy? the first time that nick saban had a first round draft pick since he's been at alabama? >> that is something else. >> i know. thank you for coming on. it's been great. >> talk about this spectacle, right? nfl still has huge tv ratings. football is the main sport and what was this like? >> you know, the nfl draft is weird. it's a party where not everyone is having fun. i mean, he was fourth best quarterback prospect and he is, yes, still waiting. that is not fun for him. but we're making memes about it. i'm always kind of mixed about drafts. of course, i'm so happy to see these men who worked, you know, since boyhood to get to where they are. >> and that's stortthe story li the night.

they do the little biographers. >> people in the nfl, they've come from really, really hard lives where they've, you know, had economic disadvantages that forced them into football and saw football as a way out. it's unfortunate that football has to be the way out for so many young black men when we consider the cost of the labor that the nfl extracts from you. that's what always makes me feel a little bit tense even as i'm happy for these people in their individual situations. >> now this is going to be a moment, obviously, people are going on to fame and wealth and fortune ideally. i want to actually talk about brittney griner. one of the reasons why she was playing overseas in the first place is because of the pay gap, right, for women athletes. can you talk about what kind of effect her imprisonment by russia will have going forward? will other athletes be reluctant to go abroad? >> not that i would ever be in the shoes of an incredible athlete like brittney griner or any other women that are

entering into wnba, i can't imagine the value of going abroad, particularly in countries that may be politically risky. that would be terrifying, honestly. i think that there is going to be a much more -- much stronger fight domestically to make sure that there is, you know, a true pay equity between women and men or at the very least, i should say the women's league and men's league. the very least, something that doesn't force people to have to go out abroad to make the most of the talents. >> that's what the wnba commissioner is pushing so hard for and calling on media partners saying, look, we need more equity here. the ratings are going up. they're getting there. could we listen to what brittney griner said. this is the first time we've heard from her in this press conference yesterday. here she is. >> i can say for me, i'm never

going overseas to play again unless i'm representing my country at the olympics. you know, if i make that team, that will be the only time i would leave the u.s. soil. >> you point out how meaningful it was to hear from her, talk about her love of the game. >> yeah. of course. that was the part that affected me the most emotionally. she started talking about how she missed, like, the exercise and training. she missed doing planks. if you have ever done a plank, no one misses doing planks. but that shows how much was robbed from her in, you know, being incarcerated in russia. i can't -- that gets me. i'm so glad she is speaking out and speaking forcefully about what it means to be detained. what prison, what jails do to you. because there are so many people, not just those wrongfully detained in russia who are also struggling to maintain that kind of hope that they can, you know, that she was

miraculously able to cling on to that they can see families again, they can go back to things they love. whether it is sports for her or whatever, you know, job or passion you have. i'm glad that her testimony is allowing us to see what prisons everywhere do to people. >> yeah. >> and she said it was her pictures of loved ones that helped get her through that time. >> thanks. good to have you. >> thank you for having me. >> especially early on a friday. >> we're getting new reporting on the 21-year-old that leaked that trove of classified documents. what we're learning about the red fla red flags that were missed ahead of this. also, watch this. >> call 911. >> he stood up and assessed the situation and saw that driver had passed out. >> the kid you see there is only in the seventh grade in michigan. he took charge when his bus driver passed out while driving. the bus was filled with kids yesterday afternoon. the 13-year-old dylan reeves quickly hit the brakes, steered the bus to a complete stop in

the middle of the road. we'll show you more in a moment.

good news out of ukraine this morning. 14 -- news out of ukraine this morning after 14 people were killed including children. this happened south of kyiv. a wave of missiles took out an entire residential block of apartments. at least ten high-rise buildings were hit. many people missing as they're working through this and uncovering this. the number of dead expected to climb as rescue teams are searching through the rubble that you can see here. of 17 people have been rescued so far. a 31-year-old woman and her 2-year-old were killed. another series of strikes, despite that damage, ukraine's military also says that it has intercepted at least 21 of the 23 missiles that were fired. for the first time in modern history, a vice president was compelled to testify about the president he served beside. former vice president mike pence testified before a grand jury for more than five hours in the criminal probe investigating trump's actions after the 2020

presidential election. pence's testimony marks the end of a long drawn out legal bad will by trump to block the testimony citing executive privilege. joining us now is cnn political commentator and political anchor for spectrum news earl will you is. -- lewis. you can't talk about what happened in the white house. and then pence tried to cite, like, congressional privilege. how did he end up here? >> neither of them prevailed. neither of the arguments prevailed, nor should they have, by the way. >> pence was claiming a little bit of victory there. >> they were kind of playing for time is really what they were doing. and in the end, he did have to come in and testify under oath about a very important grave matter before the entire nation. and, so, he had to speak to a grand jury and tell them tr truthfully, we presume, about what happened. he's being asked to explain a day in which his life was threatened and people were

shouting "hang mike pence" and people were rampaging through the capitol and running for his life with his family and he didn't want to tell the truth about what happened. that's a real politician. that's a person so dedicated to political objectives that even simple human ideas like let's protect my family, let's talk about the person who tried to have me killed was somehow something he had to sort of be dragged into court, literally, to talk about. >> he has down played it some. he's down played the fact whether trump committed a crime that day. i don't know if it is criminal to take vice, bad advice from attorneys. i think it's interesting to hear what trump people say about this. i was talking to some of them yesterday. at the beginning when the fight was happening, they were very worried about. this pence can reveal something that no one else can. the one-on-one conversations he had with trum thap that day. they're less concerned about it. i don't know if that's what they're saying publicly.

>> they have a the lot of legal issues on their plate. how damaging do you think it could be? >> look, i think it is mostly defensive. you don't want in the middle of a subsequent proceeding for mike pence to pop-up and say i was. there i was critical. i was in the middle of all this and you never even bothered to ask me what happened. they really needed his testimony. that's what it was. i don't know that he revealed anything that wasn't in the book or already revealed by the january 6th committee or by any -- >> they have so much access to other witness testimony. they have things they want to ask from other people. >> including aides, as a matter of fact. by the way, that is one reason you do it. make sure that everybody who was in the room at a given time is saying the same thing. make sure you have a good solid account. i think the prosecutor was doing a very, very good job of staying on top of it and making sure they got this testimony. it really buttons up the case in a lot of ways. >> we talk about nikki haley who already said anyone over 75 that wants to be president should

have a competency test. this is what she said about president biden yesterday and the second run. >> if you vote for joe biden, you're counting on a president a heiress. the idea that he would make it to 86 years old is something that is not likely. we have to have mental competency states starting at 75. >> she den douthen doubled downt with this tweet this is sad for gentlemen biden, embarrassing for the media, a scar on the country -- scary for the country because kamala harris is waiting in the wings. she is talking about controversy over if biden got this question ahead of time from the "l.a. times" reporter. why is she doing this? >> i think that is a little foreshadowing. i think that, like manufacture t -- many of the other candidates that want to be president. she knows she can't get past president biden. i think we're getting

foreshadowing trying to move kamala harris up. she is a more inviting target. she's going to be somebody who i think they're going to sort of push forward as a specter. oh, i'm really running against kamala harris. >> him not going to make it is like a whole other -- >> like mccain and pallen. that did drive away some voters. >> every poll looked at, academic studies and reality we watched over several presidential cycles, people do not vote for the vice president. that person is part of an internal conversation usually within the party. but it's not in the general election going to make the difference. again, i think of it as them -- by this i mean republicans. she's not going to be the only one who does this. i think they're looking for a talking point. if you can't argue against joe biden, you have to find another argument. and that's, i think, where they're going. >> did the white house, they said they forgot nikki haley is running when asked about that comment. >> yeah. nicky who?

right? look, she is studying for the wrong test. the person she needs to guest past is not kamala harris. it's not joe biden. it is tim scott. she's got senator -- a popular senator from her own state who actually is in office. he doesn't have to chase after headlines the way nikki haley has to do, say something outrageous because she's an exgovernor. she's an exambassador and somebody not in the news unless she says something outrageous which is what she did yesterday. >> thank you for this insight. >> glad to be here. >> have great weekend. ahead, how ai, artificial intelligence, can be a game changer in policing. watch. >> what percentage of body camera footage gets reviewed now? >> a fraction of 1%. >> and trulio could look at what percentage of body cam video? >> 100%. >> wow. the fascinating report ahead.

police department as cross the country are using artificial intelligence technology to evaluate officers in the field. the program uses ai to scan body camera footage and then analyzes whether or not a police officer handled a situation professionally or not. we see how this technology works firsthand. >> officer dan janita is on patrol. he has his bod y worn camera. >> you first? >> absolutely. >> 20 videos a day, over 100 hours a week. his final invisible piece of equipment, artificial intelligence. >> did you have fears about what it meant to have artificial

intelligence tracking your day-to-day? >> i did have apprehensions. it is ai technology can sometimes have drawbacks. it's not perfect. but at the same time, i've seen things play out enough where technology helped us. >> reporter: that is what trulio's co-founder and ceo is aiming for. >> we started trulio after george floyd was murdered in 2020. how do we prevent this from happening again? >> reporter: what percentage of body camera footage gets reviewed now? >> a fraction of 1%. >> reporter: and trulio could look at what percentage of body cam video? >> 100%. >> reporter: the ai was trained by humans to detect five million key tirmz. -- terms. profanity, noncompliance or explanations. the goal is detecting early problematic police behavior before it turns deadly. >> i get an e-mail alert every day at 6:00. >> reporter: dan's chief in

pennsylvania has been using trulio for a year. he's also an adviser. these are the key words you put in? >> they are. stop resisting. custody. arrest. anything to do with pursuit. i'm looking for high-risk things. >> reporter: trulio pin points the exact moments that need review. >> stop resisting. just relax. just relax. >> not a lot of resistance. it was giving me exactly what i was looking for. >> reporter: so for you this is a good interaction with one of your officers and a civilian? >> it is. >> reporter: the police department in california has been using trulio for a little over a year. it is seeming 36% drop in use of force by officers. the ai pointed out risky interactions with civilians giving officers the chance to review and change their behaviors. what would trulio's involvement fwhn a situation like tyree

nic nichols. >> i feel strongly that trulio would have recognized the vent of the murder of tyree nichols but the hundreds of events that took place prior to that. i believe trulio would have prevented the death of tyree because it would have detected the deterioration in the officers' behavior. >> reporter: there are 18,000 police departments in the u.s., just 20 are using trulio with 20 more signing on this year including aurora pd in colorado. >> it will be an early warning system that will help save careers and ultimately save lives. >> reporter: in 2019, three aurora police officers were charged with the death of a man using excessive force during his arrest. >> we see just a little change in the officers' performance, we'll be able to actually intervene early on. get them hechllp. get them counseling. get them training, whatever it takes to get them on the right

track. >> reporter: chief trooper says technology has only proven what he also suspected about his officers. what has this changed, anything? >> no. and i don't think that's bad thing. i want to catch something before it happens. i don't want to be reactionary. we want to be looking ahead to make sure that we stay ahead of the game and ahead of any issues and i don't think that is a bad thing. >> now the seattle police department was one of the first to adopt trulio. in recent months, they canceled their subscription with the ai platform because they had concerns over citizen privacy. obviously we asked trulio about this. they said all the data and video lives on the department's server. the department is the one in control. and trulio said there are ways to protect privacy, redacting certain information, making sure citizens feel like their footage is being be looked at safely and information is not going outside

of the police department. >> you would need to know the identity of a person, like he brought up tyree nichols. you need to know the identity of the person to get involved in a situation. so many questions. so fascinating. how expensive is it? can departments afford this? >> deposits can afford it if the municipalities and cities are willing to pay for it. it's $20 to $50 month per month per officer f you're a larger department, it is more expensive. there are federal funding programs that you can certainly apply for to help offset the costs. this technology is being use bid a small group of police departments. obviously, the goal for this founder is to get it to go nationwide. >> yeah. made a good point about it, too. the. >> yeah. of course, it will prevent lawsuit costs. >> correct. the cost to pay for this could be at the end of the day maybe cheaper, more affordable for some departments who could face lawsuits in the futures. >> great report. >> the chair of the federal reserve duped.

wasn't done. these days paramedics are trained not to just answer calls but to prevent the next one. so dylan texted colleagues at the fire station. and he showed up at judy's door again. this time with ten other volunteer firefighters ready to help her move the stacked boxes. so judy wouldn't get hurt again. >> i just -- i was dumb founded. i thought, you know, that is above and beyond the call of duty. >> reporter: these are strangers to you. >> they are. but it didn't take long that they weren't strangers. we got to laughing. and having a good time, really. >> reporter: with laughter and memories shared, she says it was almost like a party. >> well, they found a box of booze. >> reporter: since then -- >> hey, miss judy. >> hey. >> reporter: her new friends and neighbors made repeat phone calls. >> i'm very stubborn. very independent. but i have learned to have patience. and this back deal has really made me aware that i'm not a

spring chicken anymore. and, i have to rely on other people. >> reporter: the moving boxes are long gone. but their bond still growing. >> i don't know how to put it other than just close friends. >> oh, yeah. >> yeah. >> reporter: isabel rosales, cnn, atlanta. lovely story there. also this morning, news, legendary tv host jerry springer died. we'll take a look back at the rise to his top -- his time at the top of day time tv. that's next.
