"cnn news central" starts right now.
10:01 am
a suspect in court. the man accused of killing a homeless street artist in new york city is arraigned. his lawyer says the former marine ha his head held high, but prosecutors laid out the case against him in the case that could put him behind bars. the battle forb bakhmut in ukraine is heating up. they claim it's gaining ground in admits to losses north of the city. are the battles part of kyiv shaping the battlefield for a counteroffensive that they hope could end the war once and for all. and now what? title 42 is expire d and border officials are seeing a spike in the number of migrants trying to enter the country while the white house scrambles to patch a broken immigration system. we're following these major developing stories and many more all coming in right here to "cnn news central."
10:02 am
the man that you see here, former u.s. marine daniel penny earlier today walking out of a police precinct in new york in handcuffs. he was just arraigned and charged with second degree manslaughter after this. you can see penny here on a new york city subway earlier this month. he's accused of shoek choeking a homeless man to death. the man who died, his name is jordan kneely. witnesses say that he got on the subway and he was shouting this he had not physically attacked anyone. at which point penny put him in a choke hold and died. his family said he had been suffering from mental illness. here's ab attorney for the family at a news conference earlier today. >> we don't want it where you can kill someone because you thought there was a possibility they could do something to you. there was no attack. he did not attack anyone. he did not touch anyone.
10:03 am
he did not hit anyone. but he was choked to death. that can't stand. >> cnn's is outside of the court where pennies was arraigned. we heard one of daniel penny's lawyers talking about what appears to be a preview of the defense they may use. >> earlier today before this arraignment took place, penny's lawyers were speaking to the media after he surrendered himself to be arrested. and his lawyer was highlighting his military service and stepping in on the subway car. take a listen. >> daniel penny surrendered at the request of the district attorney's office. he did so well. with the dignity and integrity that is characteristic of his
10:04 am
history of service to this grateful nation. >> reporter: penny was arraigned a short while ago. hfs released on a bail package proposed by the prosecution. it was $100,000 in a cash insurance bond. he also has to surrender his passport. we did learn more about the investigation and what happened. what one of the prosecutors said in court was that they have conducted numerous eyewitness interviews, reviewed video tapes and interviewed the responding officers a at the scene. here's what they told us about what happened that day. they said kneely entered f train and there he was making threats and scaring passengers. the prosecutors said that is when penny put him in a choke hold and then the train moved to the next station. while it was at the next station, penny continued to hold kneely neilly in a choke hold
10:05 am
and two additional males joined in and restrined his legs. now the prosecutor also said that he then stopped moving, but penny continued to hold him for a period of time. they did not say how long he continued to hold him after that. but then the paramedics arrived on the scene. they tried to resuscitate him. he was pronounced dead at the hospital. one reason that prosecutors were not seeking to remand him was because penny did cooperate on scene. he's continued to cooperate with their investigation. they did not see him as a flight risk. >> let's go to omar jimenez. the family of jordan has been speaking out. what are they saying? >> reporter: well, this was the result at least the arrest and the handcuffing and charging that the family had wanted and been asking for from the very beginning. it's part of why we had seen
10:06 am
protests because people had not seen what they perceived any action in regards to daniel penny. the district attorney's office had been working behind the scenes to help build the case to bring us to this particular charge, but again, the family was saying that this mugt not even be far enough, but it's something they are going to have to live with right now. take a listen to some of what they said a little bit earlier today just really in the moments when daniel penny was essentially heading into court. >> we need a full cup of justice here. we're asking for us to continue to press forward until that hap happens. now, i do want you to just take a look at these folks here. they represent the family. they represent the whole team. i'm asking you to have a heart, have a heart and continue to
10:07 am
press forward until justice is served for this family. it's about this family. this family is part of our community. >> reporter: a big part of this conversation has been not just about the specifics of this particular case, but what factors in his life basically put him in this situation to begin with. we had spoke ton his friends. to when he got here, his life met multiple points of decline. so all of that part of the conversation as well. >> certainly is. omar, thank you for that report. >> now to the deepening crisis at the border under america's broken immigration system. those words from the head of homeland security. he's now in his first day of policing the border without title 42. that's the policy that let the
10:08 am
u.s. immediately expel migrants and it expired overnight. today like before the pandemic, they have a chance to apply for asylum, but they face much harsh er consequences if they try to enter the u.s. illegally. the rule change helped drive a record rush of migration to the u.s. border. border communities are beyond capacity and several more just today declared states of emergency. let's take you now to the southern border in brownsville, texas, with nick valencia, who has been tracking all the latest developments. title 42 expired as of mid-last night. has it made any difference in what you're seeing where you are in brownsville? >> there's fewer migrants being processed today than this same time yesterday. i spoke to the main nonprofit here that helps out migrants after they arrived in the city. they say at noon eastern, think had processed just one bus of those that had been released on humanitarian parole.
10:09 am
at the same time, they had about five. in the last hour, we did see a second bus. you see some highmigrants did w up on the streets this morning, but there are thin crowds here. this mornings there was several dozen migrants sleeping on the street. that crowd has obviously woken up and gotten on with their day. we have been bringing you migrant stories all week and want to continue to do that. family members have been separated at the border and people like that are waiting for loved ones. you are waiting for your daughter who is pregnant. on sunday they were entering custody. she said she was traveling with her daughter who was pregnant and her husband aez wl. they have been separated. you're coming from ecuador, right? she said her name is betty.
10:10 am
she says it's great disfortunate she had to leave ecuador. what are you running from? she says she's running from the violence there. what do you want here in the united states? security, princically. she said she was a target of violence there in her country. it's great sadness she had to leave her family behind in ecuador. for that reason, she had to bring her family here. how long did it take you here? she said it took her six days to get here. we'll continue to talk to you.
10:11 am
so betty is one of the many nationals that are waiting here for news about their loved ones, but very thin crowds here. even the main nonprofit that was aligned yesterday out the door, that is not happening today. >> thinner crowds in br brownsville, texas, for the situation that his president himself acknowledges will be chaotic for some time. nick valencia, thank you so much. title 42 lapsed just about 13 hours ago. but the biden administration already facing legal challenges over new rules to handle the swelling influx of migrants. they are getting it from both sides. folks who want stricter rules and those who want less strict rules. 150,000 people in northern mexico alone are waiting to try to enter the u.s. white house reporter priscilla alvarez is covering this today. she's covered the issue for some time. tell us about these two cases. one from florida, they certainly have a few of this.
10:12 am
>> the easiest way to break this down is in florida, they are going after the operational plan. what the administration is trying to do to alleviate the border facilities. then the aclu is going after the new policy. what does this look like? immediate effect. the administration cannot release migrants without a court notice, as of now, for 14 days. until there's a hearing. so that is difficult for the administration because what it means is that they are strip pe of a tool to alleviate these facilities, which by the way, are akin to jail-like conditions. the aclu is going after an asylum rule. that barred migrants from claiming asylum in the u.s. if they pass through other countries. and they find that too strict and say it violates u.s. and international law. so those two happening at the same time. asylum rules still in place. we haven't heard from the court there.
10:13 am
>> as possibly could the judges issue a stay while they are deciding this issue and then, therefore, hold things up, like freeze things where they stand. >> in florida we had that come in overnight. that's the pause for 14 days on releasing of migrants. i just want to say, i spoke to a source this morning. they have baked into their planning that litigation was probably going to happen. that's been the case for the biden administration on border policy. but it gives them an extra thing to contend with. officials are saying this could be harmful while trying to process record numbers of people at the border. >> you could address these issues if congress were to sit down and come to an agreement and change the law, address it in that way. you could do that. >> that's the question for d.c. and so far, there's not been movement on that front. >> priscilla alvarez, thank you. shaping the counteroffensive, how ukraine is laying the ground work to take back territory.

10:19 am
nick paton walsh is live for us in ukraine. the head of the wagner group, which has been russia's main presence in bakhmut today, acknowledged they exceeded territory. pz. >> that was echoed by the statement that said they had taken more useful or more advantageous positions to the northwest of that particular city. there's been the ultimate goal really of russia over the entire winter. the wagner head saud he basically in the city proper and since this dispute he's been having with the russian top brass over the last week in public had emerged. he had begun to see russia's military continue to take the flank positions.
10:20 am
now he's accusing them of abandoning those. that's been confirmed by this russian ministry of defense statement. this is small amounts of territory, flat open spaces around the city changing hands. the second instance we're aware of the last 48 hours. it marks a sea ching in the narrative around bakhmut. that was a place that made its entire focus seen like it might be about to surround. now we're seeing this remarkable change happening. in terms of public display of this unity amongst the military elite, slamming the top brass daily. but it also forms part of the increased uncertainty amongst russian forces as we near what seems to be ukraine's counteroffensive. senior u.s. military official believed shaping operations have begun. you might see some of that in the explosions that appear to be
10:21 am
hitting key targets inside the areas, we have been seeing that over the past few weeks. but the tempo rising here. ukraine does appear to be bracing itself to launch this counteroffensive. we have seen parts of it already and russia in complete disarray, particularly around the city it's held in such high value. >> bakhmut a microcomp of the dysfunction in the russian forces and their efforts in ukraine. nick paton walsh, thank you so much for that report. the biden administration is looking to create high value russian prisoners in exchange for two americans who are wrongfully detained by the putin regime. there's just one problem. the u.s. doesn't have any detainees to offer up. so cnn has learned the biden administration is scouring the globe for any countries that have high profile russians in custody to see if a third party prisoner swap could be worked out.
10:22 am
kylie atwood is at the state department for this story. where do things stand? >> reporter: what the biden administration is doing here is casting a really wide net, going to allies around the world, particularly those who have recently arrested russian spies. because as you said, the united states doesn't have any high level russian spies in their custody. they know that that is what russia is going to want in terms of a potential prisoner swap for paul whelan. so their outreach extends to brazil, germany, norway, a former soviet state, and we have learned that those discussions are really ongoing right now. the case of germany, we know that the united states went to germany. it was last summer. he is a russian spy who was in enggerman custody charged with murder. but obviously, those efforts didn't really go anywhere in terms of germany playing ball to offer him up. that was essentially more than half a year ago. we don't know the status of the
10:23 am
conversations with the other countries right now, but it's also important that the administration is also going to allies who don't have russian spies and essentially try to see if they have anything to offer on the table to give the united states leverage at the negotiating table. to essentially gin up some creative officers to russia as they try to come up with some deals that could secure the release of these two americans who are wrongfully detained in russia. >> what sinsent i haves could te u.s. offer up to one of these third party countries? >> that is such a great question. i think that really gets at the detail of these ongoing negotiations. we simply don't know what the united states is offering right now. in the case of some of these countries, the united states does have an extradition treaty with these countries. so they have actually requested the extradition of some of these russian spies to the united states. that is following all legalities. then they could potentially trade them with the russians
10:24 am
once they are in u.s. custody. if they are willing to play ball, they don't necessarily have to be extradited to the u.s. for this to happen pz. >> we'll see. thank you. coming up, round two of negotiations between president biden and top leaders in congress has been pushed back. is the delay a good thing or a bad thing for any potential deal? and later, a judge has ruled 18 to 20-year-olds should not be barred from buying handguns. reaction to that ruling, what it means, just ahead. so we're hard at work, helping them achchieve financial freedom. we're investing for our clients in the projects thatat power our economy. from thehe plains to the coast, we help americans invest for their future. and help communities thrive.

a big meeting postponed. president biden will not meet with congressional leaders today as planned to discuss some sort of debt ceiling deal. the clock keeps ticking toward what would be a catastrophic default if they don't reach an agreement by june 1st. big stakes for the country. lauren fox joins us now from capitol hill. i see delay and think, well, they are not talking to each other. that's bad, or at lower levels, they are trying to work on something before they put them together. why what do we know? >> we know it was because of the latter. there have been staff meetings
10:30 am
happening over the course of the last three days. and one thing to keep in mind about the staff negotiations is they are trying to figure out what the parameters of these talks are going to be. and we know that sounds it's in an infancy and really is, despite the fact that the president and the speaker met on tuesday. that meeting was really just a reiteration of everyone's positions that they have been publicly putting out there for the last three months. the work now of the staff is to decide what are we talking about. what are we willing to actually negotiate on. and a couple areas are potential. this is far from being finalized. they are not close to a framework. but what they are looking at is some kind of budget caps agreement. that is how much money they are going to spend over the next several years. that's potentially on the table. they are also talking about whether or not to do permitting
10:31 am
reform as part of this negotiation. that is something that republicans and democrats have both looked at as a potential. they are looking at clawing back some of the unused covid funds, given the fact that that declaration has ended in this country. i think there's a question of what to do with some of that unspent money. that could be a way to have some government savings. so that gives a sense of what they are talking about. but time is running short. there are about four days when republicans in the senate and democrats -- or excuse me, democrats in the senate are all going to be in washington. that's not to say that people can't stay behind or staff isn't going to continue negotiating until this is done. but that gives a sense of just the timeline that we're operating under. >> the unused funds seem like tl could be some agreement there. i suppose a rule of washington is once money has been spent, it's hard to get back. lauren fox on the hill, thank you. a federal judge in virginia has struck down federal laws that prevent 18 to 20-year-olds
10:32 am
sfr from buying handguns from gun dealers. the judge ruled the laws are unconstitutional and violate the second amendment. he wrote because the statutes and regulations in question are not consistent with our nation's history and tradition, they cannot stand. security correspondent josh campbell is joining us now. break this ruling down for us. >> this is just the latest flash point in the debate over gun rights and public safety following that supreme court decision last year involving the state of new york. now with the high court had ruled then was that any law restricting gun rights must face a so-called historical test the question being is the law consistent with tradition and law at the nation's founding over 200 years ago. this federal judge in virginia ruled that federal laws banning 18 to 20-year-olds from buying handguns from licensed dealers is unconstitutional because there was to similar law on the books when the united states was founded. now part of what that judge said
10:33 am
in his ruling, he wrote the government has not presented any evidence of age-based restrictions on the purchase or sale of firearms from the colonial area. getting to that historical text, many groups celebrated this ruling. 18 to 20-year-olds can buy guns legally from private sellers in many states and this ruling will ensure that young buyers go through federal background checks when they buy from a licensed dealer. gun safety advocates are disturbed by this ruling. i'll read you one statement. not only are guns the leading cause of death for u.s. kids and teen, but research shows that 18 to 20-year-olds commit homicides at triple the rate. they go on to say the ruling will put lives at risk. it must be reversed. finally as far as what happens next, the justice department is expected to appeal this ruling, we'll wait and see how this hot

walking out of a home incarceration program in lexington. now to the fda's rules that paised the way for more gay and bisexual men to donate blood. for the first time in 40 years, the agency is recommending a major change in evaluating the eligibility of donors. our medical correspondent is here with the details. what are the changes? >> these guidelines that focused on gay and bisexual men had been in place since the beginning of the hiv crisis in the '80s and had changed over time. what has changed now is that the fda is recommending individual risk-based assessments that will be the same for everybody regardless of sexual orientation, sex or gender. this it brings the united states into line with other places like the uk and canada. and this really had been an evolution since going back to 1985 when the fda enacted a lifetime ban on gay and bisexual
10:41 am
men from donating blood because of concerns about the spread of hiv through the blood supply. that changed in 2015. they lightened that up requiring a period of ab stet innocence. then during the pandemic, they shortened that to three months. now finally, they are unifying this across all doerns. >> what has the response been do to this shift? the american medical association have come out in support of it. you have heard from places like glad. but they also point out there are still things that they don't agree with like restricting people who use the antiviral drug to prevent hiv infection from being able to do naught. they say that's still continues to have barriers to donors. >> how is this going to potentially affect the blood supply?
10:42 am
i imagine it's going to boost it. >> i looked this up from the red cross. only 3% of age eligible donors every year in the united states are actually donating blood. so really opening up the pool to more people could be tremendously helpful. >> thank you so much for walking us through all of that. as the u.s. continues to face ab unprecedented medicine shortage, a new report shows cancer treatments are among the hardest hit. there's a shortage of about two dozen chemo drugs, 9 out of 10 oncologists say drug shortages left them unable to proper ly care for their patients. elizabeth cohen is joining us. you have spoke to cancer patient who is needed drugs and then they were not able to get them. that must be devastating for them. >> absolutely. i spoke to a mother whose child had cancer, a little girl. she was supposed to get a
10:43 am
certain regimen and they said we can't do it today or tomorrow. they couldn't do it for a long time. they didn't have the drug. i spoke to a man with prostate cancer. they said we know if we could give you the full treatment, it would add years to your life, but we can't do it. so it's obviously very devastating to hear that. it's not just cancer drugs. if you look at data from the university of utah, more than 300 drugs have been in shortage in just this year. in the past five months, the last time it was this bad was in 2014. now it's interesting. the university of utah asked pharmaceutical companies, what's the reason for this shortage? 56% of the time they didn't give an answer. the answer is unknown. so here are people who can't get their cancer drugs. fpharmaceutical companies, we don't know why there's a shortage or won't say. >> i'm not sure how you fix the problem when you don't know what

this is a jury of seven men and five women, and they began deliberating yesterday in the afternoon. they went home and they resumed those deliberations this morning. this has been about a month of this jury listening to arguments and to witnesses, and what's interesting here is that the prosecution put on about 60 witnesses while the defense, well, they did not put anyone on the stand. and so now is jury is left to figure out what exactly they want to do here. it all started in september of 2019, when lori vallow daybell's children were last seen. these were children from a previous marriage, it was 16-year-old tylee ryan and 7-year-old j.j., and shortly after the children went missing, she went and got married in hawaii to a man named chad daybell, also known for these religious beliefs. his wife actually died in her sleep just weeks before these
10:51 am
two got married. the couple vanished and then they were found in 2020, and while the country looked for her children, a reporter was able to ask the questions that everyone was asking. >> can you just tell us where they are? chad, where are lori's kids? what happened to tammy, chad? can you tell us what happened to tammy? why have you guys been in hawaii for so long? listen, just tell people what's happening. there's people around the country praying for your children, praying for you guys. why don't you give us answers? >> that's great. >> that's great? that's great they're praying for you, praying for your kids, what? >> reporter: she never had those answers as to where her children were. they were found -- their remains were found in chad daybell's property. they were charged with murder. in this case she didn't take the
10:52 am
stand. they both have pled not guilty. these are two separate trials. but in terms of her, well, the prosecution here says they used that religion to essentially justify and to encourage those killings, and so now we'll have to wait to see if the jury does believe them and what they point to in terms of what happened here. but it is a crazy case, jim. >> awful case, awful story. camila bernal, thank you so much for covering. how far would you go to sell something on social media? i hope it is not even close to as far as this guy went. u.s. prosecutors say a 29-year-old california pilot intentionally crashed his plane so that he could grab a bunch of youtube views and make some money in the process. we have aviation correspondent pete muntean here with us. you're an experienced recreational pilot here, right? walk us through how he managed to pull this off. >> reporter: this was pretty brazen, because pretty experienced pilots, even not experienced pilots, could tell
10:53 am
pretty much right away that this was staged. this video was called, i crashed my plane. 3.2 million views on youtube. trevor jacob is the guy who posted this video, and now, according to the plea deal with the department of justice, he intentionally bailed out of this tail taylor craft here wearing a parachute. these are the tell-tales. he's wearing this parachute that's usually used for skydiving. the engine quit, he said in this video. usually you glide a plane, you don't bail out right away. and then he bailed out with a selfie-stick. so the department of justice says this guy went back to the wreckage of this airplane to retrieve the video, but in the process he sort of filmed this video on the ground, and i want you to listen to the sound bite here where he really tries to pass this off as a legitimate emergency. >> i'm just so happy to be alive. i'm just kind of taking in what
10:54 am
just happened. where the [ bleep ] am i going to land a freaking plane? i'm going to die. that's why i always fly with a parachute. thank you, god, thank you, universe, thank you, higher power for watching over me. i'm going to start walking out of here. >> reporter: one more thing we've got to point out, this was in all the youtube comments, jacob appears to have a fire extinguisher back there tucked into his pant leg. you can see it by his boot. typically not something you would do in a small airplane. so the department of justice says in this plea deal that jacob admitted to essentially trying to cover up that this was an intentional act and he misled investigators, sending them on this goose chase, essentially saying he didn't know where the wreckage was, even though it's clear here he did. jacob lied to investigators that he did not know the wreckage's location, according to the plea agreement. in fact, on december 10th, 2021,
10:55 am
two weeks after this incident took place, jacob and a friend flew by helicopter to the wreckage site and hoisted the wreckage with the helicopter and then the plea deal says that jacob essentially cut up pieces of the airplane and put them in trash bins around an airport. he really try to obfuscate this. he's scheduled to appear in court in about two weeks. it will be his first appearance. they say he lied to the national transportation safety board, he lied to the faa. the faa has yanked his pilots license. he could spend up to 20 years in jail for trying to obstruct this investigation. it's a felony charge. >> he disposed of an airplane in different trash bins. i mean, i've heard of cutting up a credit card, but it's an airplane. that's different. pete muntean, wild story. thank you for takes us through it. boris? still ahead, charged with
