of this pastor in particular was a diabetic and may need some medical help or treatment along the way? >> they do not know that he is diabetic or at least they do not show any signs that they knew about it. but he was very clear, he mentioned they are like my guests, we're giving them tea and rice and that they are in good condition and they will not be harmed. he also mentioned that during hillary clinton's visit, he thinks maybe this will direct the spotlight to his situation. he mentioned he hope to pressure the egyptian authorities to release his uncle who he claim is falsely detain on drug charges. >> thanks so much for that update. keep us posted. all this taking place while the u.s. secretary of state hillary clinton is in egypt, as you heard mohammed underscore there. there she is deplaning there. she is there to emphasize u.s. support for the country's democratic transition. tomorrow she meets with the head

of the country's military counsel. today she held talks with newly elected president morsi. he is in a power struggle with the leaders who dissolved parliament last month. clinton said morsi is ready to unify his country. >> president morsi made clear that he understands the success of his presidency and indeed, of egypt's democratic transition. depends on building consensus across the political spectrum to work on a new constitution at parliament, to protect a civil society, to draft a new constitution that will be respected by all. >> clinton is expected to address two touchy issues during her visit. women's rights and equality f q capitolic christians.

and it was something no president had done since lyndon johnson won it in 1964. that's why the president is headed to his second virginia campaign stop of the day. a high school in centreville. it is a vital battleground state. at this stop in glen allen, virginia, where it was pouring rain, obama said mitt romney's top down economic approach just simply won't work. romney is taking a few days off the campaign. so one time rival rick santorum actually showed up on mitt romney's behalf at the opening of a campaign office in greensburg, pennsylvania today. this is another battleground state in santorum's home turf. until today, santorum had not campaigned for romney. this may be the first step in the peace making process following their bitter primary battle. now to houston, texas. people are dealing with the worst flooding in more than two years. rescue crews scrambled to save dozens of people from the flash

too. independent investigator louis freeh releases a scathing report. might this open up a whole new can of worms? >> yeah. 267 pages, even the janitors knew, fredricka. will that affect future criminal indictments and problems? we'll see coming up. >> richard? >> in my lifetime, fred, the once great name of penn state university will forever be tarnished due to the cowardly lions, joe paterno, spanier, and others. >> wow! more from you legal guys.

. the worst is far from over from penn state after a scathing report on the response of university leaders to child sex abuse allegations. the school is still under scrutiny by the department of education and the ncaa. let's bring in our law professor from cleveland. good to see you. >> hi. >> thank you very much. a new york criminal defense attorney and law professor joining us from las vegas. good to see you as well. >> hi, fred. >> this louis freeh report is scathing. it involved more than 400 eyewitnesses. very detailed accounts of who knew what when and all this after the conviction of jerry sandusky. however, his sentencing is coming up. you have to wonder how much this is going to impact his

sentencing. richard? >> well, i don't think it will impact the sentencing. the jury has spoken on that. and i think that this man is going to die in prison. no chance of him getting out, seeing the light of day again. this louis freeh report is devastating. it is devastating to the current status of penn state and to the future status of penn state. it is not an admissible document in court. however, it is a road map to discover just how deep this horrific conduct by people at penn state, people in control, including the top dog himself, joe paterno, who could have prevented this 15-year reign of terror by sandusky. it is an absolute abomination. the university will stand to lose federal funds for violating the clery act. and in addition to that, the ncaa could impose a death penalty, take the football program away for a year. they should do that. >> all those things being considered. so when you look at the pictures

of some of the people involved in the investigation, the questioning from the grand jury and now even this report, we're talking about from the president of the university. spanier, the former president, to tim curley, the athletic director. mr. schultz, the names go on and on. we already know that mr. schultz and tim curley will be facing criminal trials for having failed to report the 2001 assault and then lying about it under oath. now as a result of this report, do you see that the criminal investigations, or at least the charges, may be broadening out. not just involving those that i name but others as well. >> i think so. i think the top dog at penn state wasn't joe paterno. it was the president of the university. and at this point, you have two charges against the athletic director and vice president. look, based on the louis freeh report, there is evidence that surfaced including evidence from janitors who back in the late 1990s knew about what was going on.

scared to death about doing anything about it. yeah, i think it really does go all the way to the president. there are e-mails that certainly surface going back to the grand jury. i think the former president also faces issues. frankly of joe paterno were alive, he would be facing conspiracy child endangerment, other very serious felonies. it is the tip of the iceberg. i agree, the clery act is the law that requires reporting these things. nothing is done since the enactment of that law and that's $27,000 per event times hundreds of events. and the poufrt ncaa to actually us is pen the program. we'll see a lot more coming up. the louis freeh report is an absolute blockbuster, it is the beginning of the next chapter of this story. >> we know the criminal cases could expand. it could be over appeared of years. civil lawsuits could come quite quickly as a result of this, the 400 people interviewed in this

document. and we're talking about a matter of week or even months in which we could see some developments from any civil litigation? >> right. plaintiffs' attorneys will jump all over this. litigation, i would expect, would start being commenced next week. there may be statute of limitation issues. penn state will settle these as quick as you can say penn state. they must do that. and look, let's give credit to penn state. >> that's what the lawyers are doing. actually, that's what the lawyers are doing right now. that's exactly right. they are getting these plaintiffs' lawyers in to try to get resolved before it blows up and goes to trial. >> okay. >> they commissioned this report by louis freeh. they turn over all the records that they had in their possession. they want to try to do the right thing here. the problem is it was so devastating and the fact that, don't fool yourself. joe paterno was the top dog at penn state. nobody knows spanier.

everybody knows the legendary coach. he himself, the ra-ra ethics coach, he was the one -- >> that's exactly right. >> he's the one who did nothing to protect these young boys. he is the one -- >> yeah. >> that's why penn state has to wrap this up and -- >> if it goes to trial, it is explosive. >> perhaps some at penn state among the board of trustees and others maybe didn't even realize this report would be as explosive and damage as it has to your knowledge out to be. don't forget, you can catch our legal guys every saturday at noon eastern. you do not want to miss them ever. i've got a picture that you just have to see. take a look at this jaw-dropping x-ray. a knife going through a man's neck. guess what. he survives! you'll find out exactly how this happened. plus -- tomorrow, dr. sanjay gupta introduces us to a man who is part mcgyver, part hacker on

an autistic man is recovering after wandering for more than three week in utah's desert. rescuers found 28-year-old william martin lafever thursday starving and dehydrated but alive. >> in all honesty, we didn't necessarily expect the outcome that we had. so the river is pretty windy. as we came around that fateful turn, i was pretty shocked to see him sitting in the river waving his arms at us. by the time we got him, he was unable to stand, walk or even crawl. he was down to rolling. it was about the only form of motion, locomotion that he had. lafever's journey started in early june when he ran out of money while hiking. his father told him to go to page, arizona, where he would wire william some cash. well, he planned to walk nearly 50 miles in the desert which

local officials describe as some of the most unforgiving terrain oerth. but at some point, he ran out of food and water. he says he survived on frogs, roots, and river water. a massachusetts prison guard is lucky to be alive today. nate is recovering after an inmate stabbed him in the neck with a hand made knife. inmates call it a shank. the experts show how, the x-ray shows how close it came to killing or paralyzing him. the wife credits the doctors and their faith. >> they will me it missed his spinal cord by half a centimeter. we have strong faith in gov god and i knew it was a miracle. i knew how close he came to dying but seeing that took my breath away. the handle happened to break loose and he kept stabbing and punching but the knife was not attached to the handle anymore. >> two other guards were monitoring 93 inmates when he

was shanked. coming up, a very close encounter with something else very menacing. try a great white shark. i get to talk with the fisherman who had that close encounter and caught it all on videotape.

president barack obama on a roll today on the campaign trail crisscrossing virginia. this time he is making a stop in centreville. unlike earlier today when he was in another city, it was a heavy

downpour of rain. now at least he is dry. dry shirt and everything but he is trying to appeal to the voting public there in virginia. not taking for granted the fact that he won the red state of virginia back in 2008. he is hoping that it will be blue again for him on his re-election campaign. you might think this next guy is a little crazy. an australian fisherman came face to face with a great white shark who says he is not afraid to get back in the water. in fact, he did get back in the water today. he went snorkeling. nathan podmore and his friend dave richards were off the course of western australia south of perth when they were circled by a 12-foot long shark. nathaniel captured the whole thing with a mini video camera. so you and your friend dave were spear fishing in an area where there had already been some reported incidents of great white attacks. why did you decide to go spear

fishing there? >> there had not been any reports in the area we were. there have been sightings and a couple of attacks in the state. a few people had said one is likely in the area but it was never, it was probably the last thing on our minds when we went out. >> take me back. you and your buddy, you're fishing. you're in, you're at depths fairly shallow and we can see that you have a mounted camera so you're videotaping it all. you've got your spear fish rod there. then what happens? >> um, i turned the camera on ready to do my second dive of the day. and i was, my body was facing the opposite direction to me and i was taking my final breath,

ready to do a dive. and i just heard him scream and i turned around and i was face to face. >> so you've said that you always wanted to encounter a great white but now that you have, it is the scariest thing and you don't ever want this to happen again. what were you thinking at the time when you saw this great white? which by estimates was about 12 feet long. >> yeah. i always said i would like to see one. i couldn't have gotten luckier with the camera that we did have. i never want to see another one in the water. it is nuts. what can you say? >> how close did this shark get? did you actually have contact with it? did you actually poke it with that spear? >> yeah. i had to fend it off twice and my buddy will to fend it off twice as well. >> why did you do that?

what did your instincts tell you at that time? did you feel like it was in attack mode? or did you feel like that you could actually scare it off? >> no, it wasn't in attack mode. it was more curious. but when you're face to face with that, yeah, you don't want to let it get too close. and i suppose to let it know that we knew it was there. we wouldn't let it get any closer. >> did it just go away on its own? you can see in the background from your images that your boat was a pretty good distance away. >> yeah. the boat. we were just over 15 meters from the boat when it came in. and it followed us the whole way back. circled us a couple time, came in a little closer.

we got back to the boat. my buddy jumped right in. as soon as it was just on the edge there, i was turning and we never sawett again. >> wow, lucky them. he describes the whole incident as life changing. that's quite the understatement. we'll have a look at the top stories next. i upgraded to the new sprint direct connect. so i can get three times the coverage.
