tonight. comedian bill cosby is once again a free man, a u. s. cord today overturned his sexual conviction and ordered his immediate release. he left prison in the state of pennsylvania, and a short time later was back home with his family. cosby was convicted in jail back in 2018 for drugging and molesting a woman at his suburban estate. but pennsylvania supreme court ruled that a prior agreement with a prosecutor bard cosby from being charged in the case cause be served over 2 years of a 3 to 10 years and are just getting katie matthews. now she has an entertain jayla . she joins me from los angeles and k g. i know that many of the united states right now are glued to their screens watching these live images, which were also going to show what bill cosby driving home in pennsylvania. i mean it's reminiscent of the o. j. simpson, stormy this,

these images are almost surreal, aren't they? and you know, what's interesting, you mentioned o j simpson, remember he was in a white bronco and today we have bill cosby going home in a white vehicle as well. so it's a minority is it's interesting that you should mention that, but yes, bill cosby has been released. he is on his way home to philadelphia suburban mansion. this all is happening so quickly. we're learning more and more by the minute the story is still developing. but essentially, not only has he been released, but he cannot be retried. remember the 1st trial against him ended in a hung jury. the 2nd trial into the conviction where he was giving anywhere from 3 to 10 years to serve. he's only served a little over 2 years of his sentence so, so many people were surprised that he was being released and that he was being released so quickly. but what many people don't understand is why. and a lot of this goes back to the fact that his,

his attorneys made an agreement with the prior district attorney in philadelphia back then stating that basically if you come in and give a deposition and tell us what you know and what you've done in exchange for that, we will not prosecute you. we will not charge you. well he did. he came in, he talked about getting certain women drugs. he testified when he was under oath and was honest to the best of his knowledge. and shortly after that he was charged and he was convicted. well, now the fil, they'll saying that was wrong. why do we know k j? how did it was able to get through all the way to trial? then if the deal was made the deal was made, but you know, a lot of this isn't trotted in secrecy because the district attorney that charged him is no longer there. and so a lot of the key key players in the parts have moved on. and so i think what his attorneys were saying, we're going to allow this to move to the proper channels in the appeal process that

they always believe that the supreme court or the state supreme court that is, would rule in their behalf. and they were right. so yes, they were worried about the conviction. yes, they were upset about the convention, but they ultimately believe that if this case, this appeal would move up to the state supreme court that it would rule him, bill cosby space. and so he's not clear to me know what he's saying that he's, he's not guilty. we know that this is more of course that that is a legal that is a legal thing. this is a conviction has been overturn. but that does not mean that he is innocent. remember, a lot of technicalities and how you look at the law between or not, somebody's in an innocent whether they've been convicted and whether a conviction is overturned. so we have to be really careful about how we phrase that and this is one assault, but, you know, i remember dozens of women have accused him of sexual assault over a period of many years. do you expect there to be new allegations?

there could be, you know, but so many women have already come for over 50. women have told their stories to very many public, you know, newspapers and television stations all around the world already. so, so many women have come forward. so many women have told the same story about bill cosby. so there may be some other charges to come, but as we know it now with this particular case, he cannot be tried and he is already $83.00. so i'm not sure how long it would take them to come up with some other case with some other evidence. be able to present that. be able to get a jury to say yes, we think there's enough for a charge and then have that play out. that would take quite some time. so i'm not sure where that would stand. yeah, it's an amazing turn of events that is for sure. keeping matthews in los angeles, k g, as always. thank you. thank you. what we stay in north america. an extreme heat wave sweeping across western canada is causing dozens of deaths and breaking records as temperatures fit. $49.00 degrees celsius, that's

a $120.00 degrees fahrenheit. cooling centers have been set up to give people some relief and the sweltering heat. it is forecast to continue. a prolonged, dangerous, and historic heat wave engulfing western canada has already caused dozens of death . people are being encouraged to go to cooling centers to combat the extreme heat. it's just on bearable. it's impossible to be out. so never seen anything like this . i hope it never becomes like this. her again, it's not really pleasant. this is too much, too much summer for us here. but some are enjoying being out doors. feel like and coover, but it's an interesting experience. yeah, the nice getting outside, but basically been consuming gallons of water the whole time. not surprising with temperatures exceeding 45 degrees in some places, some feeling close to 50 degrees in others because of the human conditions. some

are taken to the water to cool down, while others are helping the vulnerable by distributing food and drink to provide relief. officials point to this being part of a wider problem. in this instance, i think the, the big lesson coming out of the past number of days is that the climate crisis is not a fiction. that is absolutely real. and if you look, i had a briefing from the wildfire service the yesterday and again today, the entire west coast of north america from baja to alaska is red hot. this is not a british columbia problem. it's not a candidate problem. it is a global challenge. and we all need to have citizens of the world coming together. school and college classes have been cancelled in british columbia, which means more play time perhaps. but extreme heat. and the search for relief looks like a climate emergency problem that just isn't going away. join now by brian potentially from chiller wack in british columbia. brian,

it's good to have you on the show. i take it that no one is chilling out right now and chill away. no, we really hard. it actually has cooled off a bit. today. it is down into the 30s, but we have pretty tough weekend. and fortunately, i work in the hockey industry. so i spend my weekend in an ice arena so that, that helps with the cooling off. but, you know, here in british columbia only 40 percent of the people that live here have your air conditioning. so our city and cities across the problem have opened up cooling centers in arena and city hall and everything else to help. because what about you, brian? do you have the air conditioning? i have air conditioning in my apartment here and not, and i'm very thankful for it. and it is going 247 right now. you're lucky man. you, you like you were telling is your hockey trainer? but i guess there's not much i talk to being played under these weather

circumstances at the moment. well, you know what, the nice thing was we had a, we had a prospect camp this weekend. so we had 120 players in the last week as well. to try out to see who was going to come to our main campus. so like i said, spending the weekend in an arena, in, in 45 degree heat. it if like i, i've never been to, haven't, i want to go to heaven want to call over, but i'm sure we're close to haven't. i've seen it in my life time. well, i mean, you know, all kidding aside, you know, people have died because of the heat and you know, if they're talking about climate change that we could expect more summers like this, not once in a century, maybe once every 10 years, once every 5 years, what is the government saying about this? i mean, is there any type of official support or response? yeah, actually, you know,

i'm very fortunate. i was telling your your fountain. i lived in frankfurt, germany before i moved to joe last. and i saw how the german government works, and i have a home in the united states. and prior to that, the ministration, i saw how they pass administration sort of why scott, that climate change. i love the fact that canada is stepping right up there, the u. s back in and we, we have to take care of this earth for, for the people that are coming up behind. if i have a 19 year old dial and a 21 year old son, and i want them to enjoy this, and i want to leave this place better than i found it. and fortunately, our government here, your government there. and now the new administration in the united states is taking this very serious and, and you know, we go through the, through, in the, in the summer we go through forest fires here because of the heat. and but, but we're all kind of pulling on the rope the same way so. so i'm expecting to see

greg result. well brian, i can say the world needs more ambassadors like you, but we're going to win this fight against climate change. brian potentially joining us tonight from chiller wack in british columbia. brian, thank you and stay cool. thank you for having me on and and shout. well, the island nation of madagascar is paying a high price for climate change, which of course it had little to do with the worst rounds and 40 years of the thousands in the indian ocean. on the brink of starvation, a organization say more has to be done to prevent a humanitarian disaster from becoming even worse. the. this was one tal farmland, but now is a desert. years of drought have destroyed nearly all of the crops here. strong winds sweeping away the soul of n sunstorm covering what's left entire communities. on the brink of starve ation,

people here have resorted to eating whatever they can find. it took me that in the morning. i prepared the plate of insects and i clean them the best i can without any water damage. for 8 months, my children, i have been eating the land every day so that we have nothing else to eat on the modem and no ran to grow crop. on the 2nd one, the people here on the front line of the global climate crisis, madagascar hardly amidst any greenhouse gases, but it's one of the worst victims of climate change. 2 we're facing the worst drought in over 40 years. and this is an area where people depend on their own agriculture, home grown shoe meals, small holder farmers. this is how they lived down here, but with drought back to back to back. people can't survive, the cycle of drought is having families apart. these 2 boys orphaned after their mother died of hunger. they've been taken in by another family,

but severely mound tuition and they're still not getting in there. with them we have nothing left and left, their mother is dead lot and my husband said, what do you want me to say? are life centers around looking or can just leave a survive island or somebody who nearly a 1000000 people instead of madagascar depend on food aid. some people have walked for hours to get health, but not everyone is healthy enough to make a long journey. have organizations that more be done to help madagascar food to feed the hungry mouth and finally, action on climate change. we look now and some of the other stories that are making headlines around the world. former us defense secretary donald rumsfeld has died at the age of 88. he served twice in the post under president gerald ford and george w bush. rumsfeld oversold the start of the war in afghanistan and the us invasion

part of the phased withdraw all the international forces that totally bon tara group has already overrun much of the country and afghans left behind or afraid of what might happen next. there was in the way of fan fat as germany's military mission enough going on came to an end the families waiting for their loved ones to return. it was a day of joy and relief. when my mother up, i'm picking up, my husband said he's been enough. get this done since february, and i've come to collect or show up the one. how are you feeling? they really excited and happy. after nearly 20 mission and 150000 troops deployed, these are the last german soldiers to come home. mission accomplished the hop sailed your assignment. the orderly meant of the german resolute

support mission. contingent has been successfully completed but european troops quietly return. and the us prepared to complete its withdrawal. the situation of left enough gonna stand remains precarious. the germans were heavily involved in the north of the country and cities like condos and my gosh, i leave and, and other cities around the north. and if you look at it, those are the cities that are really in danger right now. and those are among the cities where local people are arming themselves to fight back against the taliban case of the germans. you know, it's another question of another country leaving and what did they really accomplish in 20 years later, the city that they were supposed to be in charge of fuel so unsafe. and the people either have to flee or take up arms for themselves. and as a question of, what did they really end up doing, how much should they really change for the average person? during the 20 year nato military operation,

there have been some gains in education, women's rights and infrastructure. but corruption and violence remain as huge obstacles already controlling large parts of the country. the taliban has begun. retail king provinces as foreign troops, slave to see. and now is that any games made during the last 2 decades already being lost? authorities in a jury of said they've arrested the leader of a break away. independence group. number con, new will stand trial in the capital. a boucher conduct heads up the outlaws. indigenous people of be off removing a group campaigns for a separate state for ethnic if both in se, nigeria, the mainly christian if both say they are marginal lives by the government. they see as pro islam, the movement denies stoking violence. connie was tried in 2015, but he disappeared while on bill i for more now we are joined by

d. w. corresponded. why, his interest in boucher it's good to have you on the program. can you explain exactly the charges brought against nom de con, new and then be can new is fussing 11 count charge, which include present shell. i need inciting violence using television. read you on online when he was abroad. and then several changes which deny geron government is trained to allow him to face court because he, john dam i left and julia the court has ordered that he should be reminded in the custody of this test security side these to the 27th of next month. do we know where he is right now? yes, he is in the hands of this test security service shows as or that bed and jury. i'm

calling because when he was brought in yesterday he appeared in the court to face the 11 count charges which he was facing before. he jumped bell and left an idea. and what has been the reaction there in nigeria to this data different are actually some see what the government did by bringing him back to 5th trial as legal issue. because he was this in trial and he was on bill and he john bell. so they are supporting what the government did, what especially people from his on area. the south is few of them. i seen that you didn't been kidnapped. why should the government bring him back? why she didn't then i general government says what he's been agirri and the issue of insecurity instead of concentrating on numb the candle. there is concerned around the world that nigeria is on the brink of having this,

this separation between muslims and christians in the country. is nigeria or are nigerians? are they aware of this concern outside of the country about what's happening inside they are very aware because they did been following what is happening. of course, there is a wide line between those who dictate to import the suppression the government came out to see or key. i am ready to negotiate those who i speaking to educate into separate from the country. although the northern part has said, allowed them to go, we want them to go and we know they're right. international communities who are supporting this agenda. that is why in them to come see would you give us a call the my left foot for g t is getting support not only from nigeria, but from outside. because if he's not been supported outside, he wouldn't have been doing what he was real according to what many nigeria see.

schmidt feed in mid field, but they also had their fair share of disappointment to it. and torsional, when you slow but us these and i think that this team and then some of the players that will be with us in the years to comes and some of them have a very bright future. it's yes if it's so concept forces hard. hopefully they achieve the success for they were all hoping for disease oliver and conventional to the oh my, they were hands flick, my successor. this whole the very best want and much success. my heart continues to be blind, red, and gold. that's what called great police were celebrating the recovery of a picasso painting stolen 9 years ago from the national gallery. but then this happened, the painting flipped and fell to the floor as it was being shown to the media watch this. picasso presented the painting woman's head to the greet people after world
