>> and good evening from london. in less than two days, and for the first time in nearly 70 years, this country will crown a new monarch. saturday morning, charles the third, accompanied by queen camilla, will make his way in a procession from buckingham palace to westminster abbey for a ceremony last carried out for his mother, queen elizabeth ii, back in june of 1953. 70 years, in other words for some at least this is literally a once in a lifetime event. people are treating it that way and then camping out along the procession route, some four days, now worrying union jacks,
9:01 pm
royal regalia, and other patriotic knick-knacks. jan, old sleeping under tarps under makeshift camp's. decked in flags, for the occasion. take a look at big ben there. 300 feet tall and about eight centuries of history and has never been seen before. images of the national plants of england, scotland, wales, northern ireland, projected on it. and words dancing over, it including 14, queen elizabeth died, that had not been heard since 1952, god save the king. not far from mayor westminster abby, security tape is it is all around the city, were started warning the king and queen will arrive in a coach built for the kings mother on the 16th anniversary of her coronation. certainly a lot to cover a. bit about the circumstances. we will talk more about pomp and ceremony and the public relations of crowning a king. i'm joined now by cnn's max foster. what is the mood like in london as these preparations continue? >> charles isn't as popular a figure as his mother was, as his children are, but
9:02 pm
definitely excitement about the sense of history that you just outlined there. this is something that we haven't seen it for 70 years. when you talk about pomp and pageantry, something brits are known for, and this is peak pomp. >> peak pomp. >> for more than 1000 years the coronation ceremony for english monarchs has remained largely unchanged. >> king charles will walk into westminster abby in the footsteps of his ancestors ancient symbols, like the stone of schoon, seized from scotland by king edward in the 13th century and used in coronations ever since, brought to london for saturday's event. the palace says he also wants to reflect modern britain and look to the future. the challenge will be how to do both during a cost of living crisis. charles will be crowned with the st. edwards crown, the very same one placed upon previous monarchs. crown jewels will feature,
9:03 pm
including scepters, the golden orb, and various swords, each with their own symbolism. he'll wear robes that had been passed down through the generations. the anointing, the most sacred spiritual part of the service, will be hidden from view by a special screening. one of the only newly-made pieces for the coronation. because charles, who has always been known for his environmental campaigning, has been keen to emphasize reuse. he'll be welcomed to the abbey first by a young chorister, to whom he will say, i come not to be served but to serve. inclusivity is at the top of his agenda. the ceremony will be conducted by the archbishop of canterbury, the most senior member of the church of england after the king. >> it looks round at our society and seeks to reflect us as we are, with joy and celebration.
9:04 pm
>> for the first time, people of multiple faiths will have a role. even the pope has sent a gift. fragments believed to be of jesus's cross, which had been incorporated into this new one, which will lead the coronation procession, symbols the new monarch hopes will be enough to reflect his continued relevance in the modern world whilst honoring sacred tradition. >> along with max, we have kate williams. it is about maternity or tradition? >> it's about both. the starting point was king edgars coronation. i'm checking the date. nine 73. that's where they build from. and so what they want to do is be true to that, be true to the queens coronation, so someone's watching the queens coronation will recognize what they see on saturday, but also making it relevant to some one of indians
9:05 pm
descent, for example. but going back to the queen's father's coronation, their revolution was inviting for members of the working classes to attend. >> that was the big. thing >> if you look at what's happening on saturday, that's going to be a big transformation. it's not just going to be lords and ladies. even the queen's coronation was, you know, you had to be related to someone to be invited. it will be open to public servants, all sorts of different people, young, people crucially, first person is going to meet his young boy, that's really symbolic, bringing young people in, but also essentially to what is essentially a sacred christian event. there will be members, representatives of other religions, judaism, hinduism, all truly involved in the server service. lots of modernization. >> coming from the united states, it's crazy to hear that this ceremony goes back to 973, was it? i mean, that's remarkable. >> it's a credible spectacle. as a historian it's mind-blowing to watch this. because royal weddings and
9:06 pm
funerals are similar to weddings and funerals and our usual lives, but we never get a coronation. and no other monarchy in europe has a coronation. you have to go to japan for similar setups. the earliest were going to in westminster abby the winds were in the conqueror. when we watched charleston on the coronation chair the dates from 1300, built to house the stone of school in that was stolen from scotland, yet people sat in their chair, henry the eighth, victoria, elizabeth the first, and they wore wore the equivalent of st. edwards crown, not the original one because that was melted down and civil war by oliver cromwell. but the history, the tradition, of monarchy, charles is the 40th monarch crowned. again same time, as max was saying, trying to make modern. trying to make it open to a world in which there is more questioning about monarchy. >> and prince harry will be here, and obviously william has a big role in this,. >> sir william has a role and
9:07 pm
also george has a role. it'll be part of a procession. that's the first time someone that young has been involved in an actual service like this. harry was invited, and he is coming. megan is staying home. this is our cheese birthday. what, he won't have a formal role, but i do expect to see him being given quite a prominent seat. unrealistic my neck out on, that because he is the son of the king. the bigger question is whether or not he'll come back here afterwards and appear on the balcony with the rest of the family. i think we're not being told from either side whether that's going to happen. i will tell you the whole of the front of the palace is a building site. we have to literally step over planks of wood to get to the balcony. so you do have to think about it. >> and kate, it is remarkable when you think, william will be watching this, knowing that one day he will be in this role, his son, who i think is nine, is that right? we'll also be watching it, knowing that, assuming the
9:08 pm
monarchy continues, he also will have the day the -- >> to think that charles wanted as a four-year-old, his mother being crowned in 1853, and elizabeth herself, she watched it aged 11, watching her father, and of course her mother being crowned, as well. that's what we haven't seen since 1937, the monarch crowned with his spouse. mcqueen was crowned along. there's no role for the spouse of a female monarch. so there's amazing to think that george is going to be sitting there, just a little boy, having is correlations elevations at school like all the school children have across the uk, and those coronation celebrations for him are so different. >> he's been having correlations elaborations like everyone else. >> we have the princess of wales saying the children have been having their coronation celebrity shuns, a kind of things going on in schools, and he's been doing the same. and then, in maybe 50 years time, he will himself be sitting on that chair, just as his father and grandfather did. and it's amazing to think that when charles gets up from that coronation chair and say
9:09 pm
edwards crowns taken off his head, the next person to wear that will be william the fifth. >> what are gonna be watching? for >> the central point of it is the anointing, which is when the they become a representative for god on earth. i mean, that's really what happens. there was a debate early on about whether or not they should televise that. the queens wasn't televised. there is a whole car about whether the queens should be televised. all >> hers was the first to ever be televised when they didn't televise the part, the very religious part of it. >> we thought the progression would be we can see that. charles, after much consideration, is decided that he wants to have a personal moment of thought in the middle of the service. so there will be a screen there. there are a couple of seats in the abbey that we will see so -- >> we are seeing cameras anointing, aren't we? that's a real revolution, i think. not only are we seeing camilla crowned, only in 2020 was the palace saying that camilla was
9:10 pm
still going to be princess consort and now she is queen. she is being crowned. now so we are seeing her anointing. but we're not seeing trousers. >> kate, appreciated, max, thanks so much. a lot to look forward to. the world was also watching, this the aftermath to a pair of drone strikes in moscow with kremlin, which include tense moments today in the skies over kyiv. >> [sound of gunfire] [sound of artillery] >> that is ukrainian defense forces shooting down a drone today over kyiv. they say was not russian but one of their own which malfunctioned and had to be destroyed. no one was hurt on the ground. meantime, circumstances of yesterday's incident, the kremlin remain murky and disputed with the latest being russia claiming american involvement. the white house denies it and earlier today the director of national intelligence said the intelligence community doesn't yet have enough information to say who carried out the attack.
9:11 pm
nick paton walsh is in ukraine tonight. he joins us now. as we said the drone shot down in kyiv was a case of intentional bringing down of ukrainian drone and there were multiple air attacks however on kyiv and odessa in the next few hours. what was that like? >> certainly the last wave over the last night was well repelled by ukraine al to since all the men for the capital appears to have been shot down over the south and only three got through and we don't have a casualty read necessarily on that. sometimes a military, and we don't know the full extent of what has occurred. but the relative success of air defenses last night is not something to be said for the horrifying scenes in kherson city, where before even the kremlin made their curious and insupportable announcement that the kremlin had been attacked by drones, there were over 20 people killed by russian shelling at a supermarket railway station in kherson. so we're seeing a pattern here, frankly. night by night. sirens in cities like this.
9:12 pm
the occasional flash on the sky. last night kyiv got away with the air defense protecting it but ukrainians go to sleep every day deeply concerns that russians rage will translate into drones or missiles landing in civilian areas here. >> the kremlin wasn't the only place on russian soil that allegedly came under attack from drones. there were some fires at oil refineries and fuel depots near the russian border, i understand. what are russian authority saying about that? >> russia's investigative committee says they'll be launching an investigation into a uav attack, a drone attack against thewater tower, a drone attack against an oil refinery, and a drone attack in bryansk as well. it is hard to keep track of the number of explosions that we are seeing on the border areas inside of russia. normally against critical infrastructure, oil refineries,
9:13 pm
railways, multiple attacks on the railway system in bryansk. it's unclear whether this is the work of russian partisans operating inside russia, or somehow related to ukrainian activity. they've always denied attacks inside of russia, never more specifically so after the kremlin instant, whatever that was. but a real sign certainly that russia's critical infrastructure is coming under attack as we near the ukrainian counteroffensive, whether or not that has already started. >> ukrainian nuclear safety officials are also accusing the russian military of placing what they say is military equipment, weapons, and explosives in one of the units of the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant. do you know more about that and what the risk of any nuclear incident might be because of that? >> we don't have independent evidence of these claims of weapons, explosive being put inside the nuclear power plant. you remember months ago this was a deeply troubling issue. frankly for all of europe as we saw this nuclear power plant essentially far too close to
9:14 pm
the front lines. caught not in the crossfire but in the rhetorical battle between both sides. it seems again according to ukraine officials that there are concerns russia may again be putting military assets near their, to protect them or to maybe bring the power plant into the new acts of intensified classes. but i think we are going to see in the days ahead a real escalation as ukraine begins to move forward in its counteroffensive. the weather has significantly dried up here. we can't tell you all that we see, due to reporting restrictions, but it is clear there is a lot of movement around and in zaporizhzhia, there is often thought to be the focus of what is counteroffensive may be, and that is indeed where the power plant is. but concerns, frankly, across the board, since the statement about the kremlin yesterday from moscow of what sort of retaliation we may end up
9:15 pm
seeing from moscow, if indeed they have anything left in their conventional arsenal. again, another reason why in the dead of night like now ukrainians are not always sleeping so comfortably. >> nic paton walsh, be careful. next, the trump defamation trial where jurors heard for the first time trump's deposition in which he insults the appearance of plaintiff e. jean carroll's attorneys. also the judge left over the president might still testify in person. later also questions about the killing of a homeless man in the new york subway by another rider in a chokehold. how the incident has shocked and divided new yorkers and people around the country. more ahead. the journey isn't about where you're going, ♪ it's who you'll be when you get there. ♪

like removing that tattoo of your first wife's name. inspire. learn more and view important safety information at inspiresleep.com. breaking news tonight, the trump document investigation, including a leak that the special counsel now is the help of a law mar-a-lago insider. the new york times headline speaks volumes, quoting, justice department intensifying efforts to determine if trump hit documents. the sub headline says, even more, it reads, prosecutors investigating the former trump 's handling -- of classified material, have issued a wave of new subpoenas and obtained the cooperation of a witness who worked at mar-a-lago. the report goes on to say, the focus is on whether the former president attempted to hide documents after justice department subpoena last may. separately today, both sides rested in e. jean carroll's civil lawsuit against the former president. she's alleging he raped her in a department store in the 1990s. the former president testified
9:20 pm
and presented no defense. he talked about taking the stand, something the judge today left the door open to. for more, i want to cnn's kara scannell outside the federal court in lower manhattan. so, what is the former president saying exactly? and how is the judge handling it? >> anderson, after trump's attorney rested their case today, this was outside the presence of the jury, the judge in a real surprise move here, said he was going to give trump until 5 pm on sunday, in case he had any second thoughts about not testifying. the judge said he was doing this as a precaution, because of comments that the former president made on a golf course in ireland. there he said, he was having to return to the u.s. to confront this accuser, meaning, e. jean carroll in this case. that left a lot of questions earlier today about whether he was in fact returning to the u. s., and if he was going to appear in court, so the judge said, he would give him the opportunity. he said, he doesn't mean it would grant this of trump did come back until he wanted to testify. and trump's attorney expressed that this was highly unlikely that he would. but the judge giving him this potential opportunity to reopen the case. and testify.
9:21 pm
>> the jury heard the infamous access hollywood tape again, and portions of the president's video deposition today. what is he saying those clips? >> anderson, the jury has seen about 30 minutes of trump's deposition today, including a proportion where trump is being forced to watch this access hollywood tape, where he famously says he kisses women, he's the star, they're allowed to do it. he's forced to watch this and respond to it. his demeanor in this video, he doesn't really show any sort of reaction. any kind of response to it. then he's asked questions about it. one of them is trump says on the tape, the access hollywood tape, that when you're a star, you're allowed to do these things. he was asked about why did you think you could do these things? he essentially said, it is, as he put it, historically true, with stars, they can do that sort of thing. he was asked if he considered himself a star, he said he did. and then he was also asked about the key defamation claims in this case. and trump owned those
9:22 pm
statements. he's eddie personally wrote them himself, he did not know who e. jean carroll was, she was not his type, and he called her allegations of the rape in the mid 1990s, a hoax. he went further than that. he was saying that he did not mean it as an insult to carroll, saying, she was not his type. and he looked at carroll's attorrney and said, you're not my type either. that was part of the deposition was play today, anderson. >> another friend of e. jean carroll's took the stand today, what did she have to say? >> yeah, this is the second friend of e. jean carroll's testified in this case. carolers have called them to corroborate her testimony, her story. this was a friend of hers who said that carole did tell her in the mid 1990s, she put it between 1994 and 1996, she said that she recalled they were in her kitchen and carol told her that, quote, trump attacked her. she said that carroll was frenzied in recounting the story, and that she remembered unsolicited, this is the friend, the friend said that she told her not to go to the police, because trump was too powerful, and that he would bury her. it's an important witness for
9:23 pm
carroll's team in trying to get someone to corroborate her version of events. these allegations that the rape in the department store dressing room in the 90s, anderson. >> kara scannell, appreciate, out to get some perspective on the trial, what the jury and might make of what they heard they saw, cnn anchor unseen illegal in an analyst and former federal prosecutor, laura coates, joins us. how problematic is that video deposition of the former president? apparently, backing up what he said on the access hollywood tape, just saying that is something that celebrities often have been able to do. >> normally, you wouldn't have hearsay statements, right? statements made outside of the courtroom admissible. this is an exception that admitted here in a civil case. because essentially it's a statement against his interest. more importantly, although this has been a hollywood tape that's been out there since at least his first presidential campaign, it now gives even greater weight to that testimony. because now, he is not the one testifying, he did not appear
9:24 pm
at trial, he does not have to appear at trial in a civil case, which is very surprising to many people, but because he did not do so, because he has yet to testify and may not ever testify now that the defense has said he will not, it gives greater weight to what was said. so, he's not going to counter it. he will not clarify the statement. that just rests there before the jury to consider, well, is there more credit to be given to e. jean carroll's testimony? >> -- just mentioned this, i want -- helsinki lead back to new york after the trial. >> i have to go back for a woman that made a false accusation about me. and i have a judge who is extremely hostile. i'm gonna go back and i'm going to confront this woman, she's a disgrace, it shouldn't be allowed to happen in our country. >> i mean, it's not really clear, as with many things, what he saying.
9:25 pm
he saying he's going back, he saying nothing's gonna testify, just gonna go back and confront whatever, that means, in terms of trump speak. >> whatever that means, of course, it does have a legal definition, you have the opportunity, and the right to confront an accuser, and confront a witness testifying against you. if he meant it in a legal sense, well, his attorney has contradicted that and said he's not going to put on the case, he's not going to present evidence, he's not going to be the person to actually do so in a courtroom in a court of law. the judge, however, is being very prudent here. those statements seemed to contradict what his attorney is saying. and there is an abundance of caution that is really demonstrated by judges to ensure that somebody who otherwise has a right to confront one's accuser, who has a right to testify in a case, will have every opportunity to do so. why? because most judges are afraid of being appealed in a way that says the judge did not do enough to secure and protect the rights of anyone accused, even in a civil context. but, as the judge noted, unless
9:26 pm
he says he will intend to do so by sunday, that ship has sailed. frankly, the fact that he already said he's not going to do so would be in that ship is well along the horizon at this point in time. without abundance of caution, given the stakes of the case like this, the actual person who's being accused, a former president, i suspect he's trying to extend that abundance of caution here. >> i want to ask about the new case involving the former president. the new york times, as we mentioned, is reporting tonight, the prosecutors investigating mar-a-lago documents have obtained a confidential cooperation of someone who worked at mar-a-lago. the person's identity hasn't been disclosed. potentially, this sounds like it could be significant, depending on what access that person may have had. >> absolutely, anderson. think about this, remember, it's not just that documents were no longer in the white house or that they were transported to mar-a-lago. it's also that there was a whole lot of intervening circumstances where the actual government was saying, we'd like these back.
9:27 pm
the archives, we know that you have something, please return them. and was able to actually delineate certain things that were there. so, if there was a moment in time where documents were one, where they were not supposed to be, they came after a subpoena, and knowing that there was a subpoena, after they tried to retain and return these documents, documents removed, documents were put from one place to another in some effort to try to conceal documents. or their existence or to keep them out of the rightful hands of the owner. well, that now thickens the plot here. any cooperating witness, although the identity we do not yet know, i don't wanna get ahead of my skis, the fact that you have somebody who might have some insight as to what happened once there was actual notice given that documents were knowingly on that premises and were not returned? what happened in the interim? that is the heart of jack smith's case.
9:28 pm
>> yeah, laura coates, great have you want, thank you so much. in another, quote, high profile case, a federal jury in washington, found a proud boys chairman enrique tarrio guilty of seditious conspiracy. a fifth was acquitted on the charge, however, all five are convicted of a variety of other serious charges, all in connection with the january 6th attack on congress. just ahead tonight, the story of a homeless man in new york who witnesses say, yelled in a violent language at passengers on the subway, about being hungry, thirsty and tired, and having nothing, and about how we didn't care if he went to jail. a witness said, despite any aggressive and flattening any behavior, jordan nearly did not attack anyone, he died after another writer put him in a chokehold, reaction in the investigation, next. s tracks within 2 hours. do not take with strong cyp3a4 inhibitors. most common side effects were nausea and tiredness. ask about ubrelvy, the anytime, anywhere migraine medicine.

governor kathy hochul today said the family of a homeless man killed on a new york city subway train after another writer put him in a chokehold, quote, deserves justice. jordan neely had been a michael jackson impersonator on the streets and subways, but had fallen on hard times. a witness told cnn, he had been, quote, acting erratically on the subway train monday, possibly frightening those on the train, he hadn't attack anyone at the time, he was put in the chokehold. medical examiners office says the manner of death is homicide, manhattan d. a.'s office is now conducting an investigation. the story has provoked protest, gained national attention as it touches on a number of high-profile issues, including homelessness, mental health,
9:33 pm
race.omar jimenez has the story, we warn you, new video taken of the encounter is disturbing. >> witnesses say, it all started when jordan nearly was acting a radically, as he reportedly said, he was fed up and hungry. >> he started yelling. violent language. i don't care if i die, i don't care if i'm going to jail. i don't have any food, i don't have any beverage. and then he put out the jacket, he hit it on the floor. >> this man was there. and says despite any aggressive and frightening behavior, neely had not attack anyone, even if he was making passengers uncomfortable. not long after, he says, another passenger came up behind neely, and put him in a chokehold. vázquez says he didn't hear any interaction between the beforehand, he just heard them fall to the ground. he shot this video minutes into
9:34 pm
the altercation. >> we arrive at the station, the doors open, the people runaway. the guy stays in this position about seven or eight minutes. >> another passenger appears to be helping restrain neely, it's also unclear, how long in total he was in the chokehold, since this didn't capture the start of it. neely later lost consciousness, and pronounced dead at a nearby hospital. the medical examiner's office says, he died because of compression of the neck, calling it a homicide. no charges have been filed, the manhattan district attorney's office says, they are assessing all photo and video footage to identify and interview as many witnesses as possible. >> people are dealing with mental health illness, should get the health they need and not live on the train. i'm gonna continue to push on that. >> last year, new york city's mayor, eric adams, was criticized for directing first responders and nypd to enforce a law allowing them to involuntarily commit people experiencing mental health crisis.
9:35 pm
as part of an attempt to address concerns about homelessness, and crime. protests in support of neely have called for answers. >> could've been somebody there to help him, stop the situation. it's like, at the same time, he doesn't deserve to lose a life. just for being on the train. >> i think he should still be alive today. >> that last part is the main controversy here, that people feel, no matter what happened beforehand, this should not have ended in death. now, as for the person who did the chokehold, we reached out to who we believe is him, and when identified myself as a reporter over the phone, and he told me i'm, not interested in anything any of your questions. and then hung up. sources have told cnn, he has spoken to police, and then he was released. we are awaiting any announcement on potential charges. anderson? >> omar jimenez, appreciate, i'm joined by cnn chief law enforcement john miller, who's
9:36 pm
a former nypd deputy commissioner, also cnn legal analyst and criminal defense attorney, joey jackson. so, john, as you know, medical examiners office ruled this a homicide, and said that neely died from compression of the neck. do you expect the man who put him in a chokehold will be charged? i'm guessing a lot of it will depend on what witnesses on the train said, whether he appeared to be on the verge of violence, whether there was people felt threatened? what will go into that? >> the individual who put him in a choke hold is a 24-year-old former marine, indicated in his interviews with police that he thought the man was getting ready to attack people when he threw his jacket down and put his hands and fists but hadn't hit anybody yet. and that he felt his actions would prevent that imminent assault. this is a case where mr. neely should not be dead, certainly wasn't need of help, certainly in need of more help than he was getting. but the circumstances from a legal standpoint, and i'll defer to joey jackson on this,
9:37 pm
is going to be weather this man intended to kill him or should have known his actions could have led to his death. and that is more likely to be a decision made by the district attorney about whether to bring charges and then whether a grand jury will indict on those charges, and there's a couple of ways to go about that. >> joey, the witnesses in omar 's report said nearly was saying things i don't care if i die. i don't care if i go to jail. taking off his coat. from a legal perspective, is that enough for other passengers to believe that mr. neely might do something violent? even though he had not done attacked anyone, and the same witness says he did not see a weapon? >> yes, that's part of, it. anderson obviously, you have to look at what was stated, what was said, what he was doing. what was he communicating that could be perceived as a threat. but it goes beyond that. it's not only what a person is saying, it's what you believe and how they are actually acting. was there any gestures that he was making towards any
9:38 pm
passengers? were the passengers led to believe that they were in immediate fear of an attack? based upon the immediacy of that attack, did the person who subdued him, did that individual, because you are allowed, under the law, to protect yourself, or to protect others, what did that person believe to be occurring at the time? were those actions reasonable? and then when you get to the issue of the chokehold, anderson, the issue is going to be, was that chokehold so sustained as to be disproportionate, and when he was in the chokehold, that is mr. neely, was he representing a threat of any kind at that point? there's a lot to be parsed out and i think it will be a focus on the witnesses and what they specifically believed or felt. you don't have to be attacking anyone to use physical force, the issue then becomes, was there an immediacy, such that you felt that he was about to use physical force? that will all be assessed by prosecutors and police. >> john, this strikes a chord, especially for people who live in big cities.
