7:34 am
part of the body, i might not have gotten -- i might not have gotten that upset but when he started putting his hand up my skirt and that was it. >> the trump campaign immediately responded saying, quote, this entire article is fiction. this truly is nothing more than a political attack. this is a sad day for "the times." over overnight, trump's lawyer asked the times to retract their will leave my client with no option for action and remedies. michael barbaro and megan twohey wrote the story and in studio 57 for their first tv interview about this article. tell us about these allegations made in your story, megan. >> jessica leeds is a woman who shared her story with us and
7:35 am
ago she was on a plane seated next to donald trump when he proceeded to grope her and put his hand up her skirt, forcing her to fleet to another seat in the plane. >> that allegation comes forward, it's from 30 years ago. how do you verify it? how do you know that something like that is worth putting in the paper? >> we can also -- we are heavy to discuss that, but the second allegation was made, dates back to 2005 from a young woman who was working in trump tower at the time. she was a 22-y receptionist for bay rock, a company located there. she said she bumped into trump outside of an elevator and that, you know, she introduced herself. they shook hands. he kissed her on the cheek and proceeded to kiss her on the mouth and she felt uncomfortable about it. what do you do when two women come to a newspaper and tell stories like that? >> did they reach out to you all or did you put out a call to them? >> they reached out to us. >> back to norah's question. how do you verify it?
7:36 am
once to make sure what they told us in their e-mails and lined up with what they told us in interviews. then we also, in both case, these are women had shared their stories with friends and family. in the case of the 22-year-old, she immediately made a phone call to her sister right after this happened. she went home that night and told her boyfriend, you know, so we talked to the boyfriend. we talked to the sister in the case of jessica we talked to other people she had told as well. >> did you talk to donald trump? we did. >> before we get to that, we talked, not just to the two women who went on the record' used their names, we talked to the people around them who went on the record and uses their names. there are no anonymous quotations in the story. these are people who are putting their names and their reputations by the claims that were described in these stories. i think that is important. >> at the time they allege these assaults, they had told close friends and family who recall similar stories? >> in the case of rachel crooks,
7:37 am
about a year and a half ago she had to tell a widening circle of people, including her son, her nephew and more than two friends but we talked to two friends as well as the nephew and son who recall the details of what she told them, which lined up with what she told us. >> megan, you talked to donald trump, you said? >> yes, absolutely. publish these accounts without talking to the presidential candidate himself. so on tuesday night, he got on the phone with me and i smelled out know, gave him a chance to respond. >> what did he say? don't leave that out! >> he insisted that all of the allegations were a fibuabricati and "the new york times" made them up and he increasingly agitated as i continued my questions and started to yell at me and told me i was a disgusting human being. >> what did you think of that? have you had anyone speak to you like that in the past? >> that -- i have not had that
7:38 am
but -- >> what do you say to that, okay, thank you very much? talk to you later? you keep talking? >> you keep asking questions. you keep asking questions. once again, these women, i think, were inspired to go on the record, especially after the debate on sunday when trump was asked about this. as we all know on friday, there was a recording released in which he in his own words was describing kissing women and groping women without consent. anderson cooper asked him about in the debate on sunday directly. you were caught talking about this behavior on tape. have you, in fact, done this? he looked at cooper and said, no, no i haven't. which was, you know, i think for the women that we spoke to, you know, part of a motivation to speak out. >> they were watching the debate. >> they reached out to you after the debate? >> jessica leeds were watching the debate and she and her friend turned to each other and mouthed -- and they contacted "the new york times" the next
7:39 am

7:45 am
counterproductive to punish everyone for the bad behavior of just a few? corona del mar's high school's football game went on as scheduled last week, but this past weekend's homecoming dance was cancelled, a casualty of alleged student drinking at a recent game. >> let's go! >> the behavior of many of our student were despicable and deplorable. >> that is just out of control. when you're under age you shouldn't be drinking any ways. >> reporter: the school decided to send a clear signal. >> as a consequence of extremely inappropriate and totally inexcusable behavior, the homecoming activities have been cancelled. >> you're punishing everybody because of a select bunch of idiots. i mean, come on!
7:46 am
school student drinking forced them to cancelling everything except for prom. their principal issued a statement to cbs news, we are working together to move forward and addresses age-old but increasing pervasive issue head-on. >> i think some of the responsibility has to go to the parents. >> reporter: the national institutes of health says the percentage of high school students engaging in binge drinking has actually declined over the past decade. but the percentage of students drinking at levels far beyond the bench threshold is concern. rob pickell and his daughter who attends the high school understand why the homecoming dance was cancelled. >> i think sometimes actions, as big as that, are necessary, even though it's a real bummer for, you know, the students who weren't participating.

? ? good morning. it is thursday, october 13th, 2016. welcome back to "cbs this morning.? there is more real news ahead, including the wife who saw her husband killed by charlotte police. only on "cbs this morning," gayle talks with rakeyia scott about that day. first, here's a look at today's "eye opener" at 8:00. >> willing to accost or intimidate women whenever the mood struck. >> he got on the phone with me and i spelled out the allegations. he insisted that all of the allegations were a fabrication. he got increasingly agitated and started to yell at me and told me i was a disgusting human being. >> wikileaks says it has 50,000 of john podesta's e-mails, enough to create a steady stream
8:01 am
>> it looks like there will be a sort of steady, almost daily, batch. and sounds like the trump campaign is very, very happy to use it. very simple to send the message that anybody who takes a pot shot at a u.s. navy ship can expect to pay a price. >> since 1851, bermuda has only had seven major hurricanes come close. number eight has just arrived. bob dylan has won the nobel prize for literature. >> maybe he'll do an interview. >> with david rimer, probably of "the new yorker." >> or th >> john boehner still plans on voting for trump even though he said, quote, donald wasn't my first choice, wasn't my second choice. for that matter wasn't my third choice. who was your fourth choice? whisper -- jeb. >> i'm charlie rose with gayle king and norah o'donnell. multiple women say this morning donald trump made unwanted advances towards them.
8:02 am
kissed them or made them physically uncomfortable. trump has denied all of the allegations. cbs news has not confirmed any of their claims. "people" magazine reporter who interviewed donald trump back in 2005 writes we walked into that room alone and trump shut the door behind us. i turned around and within seconds he was pushing me against the wall and forcing his tongue down my throat. we spoke earlier with "the new york times" reporters who published accounts from two other women. one woman told "the times" trump sitt touch her. >> the accuser spoke out after a 2005 video showed trump making sexually aggressive comments about women. they say they were angered during sunday's debate and trump denied touching anyone. >> are you saying that what you said on that bus 11 years ago that you did not actually kiss women without consent or grope women without consent? >> i have great respect for women. nobody has more respect for women than i do.
8:03 am
things i said. i was embarrassed by it. but i have tremendous respect for women. >> have you ever done those things? >> women have respect for me and i will tell you, no, i have not. >> the times got trump's reaction before the article was published. quote, none of this ever took place said mr. trump who began shouting at the reporter who was questioning him. you are a disgusting human being, he said. we asked the trump organization to provide someone to talk to us but it was unable to do so. for a retraction to "the new york times" last night. the lawyer said the article is reckless and defamatory and constitutes libel and said it is nothing but a motivated attempt to defeat mr. trump's candidacy. reports that donald trump is thinking of suing the paper now. cbs news legal analyst rikki klieman is with us and joins us at the table to discuss. where do we begin? if he sues, he could sue on what grounds? doesn't it open him up to all sorts of other things?
8:04 am
lawsuit in and of itself. it's a suit for libel. he is saying it has defamed him and cast him in a light that is uncomfortable. obviously, a sexual assault or unwanted groping or kissing would do that. however, he is a public figure. and "the new york times" knows well, because the seminole case that every law student has ever heard about is called "the new york times" versus sullivan. and what we learned in that case and it teaches us in theed also about the law, is that if you are a public figure, the standard is higher for a newspaper in that it is reckless disregard for the truth. it's what we call actual malice and actual malice doesn't mean hatred. it means you acted recklessly or the times would have acted recklessly in its publication, so you had the reporters on in the last hour.
8:05 am
news organization whether it would be "the new york times," "the washington post," "wall street journal," or cbs news, we have lawyers. we have lawyers which vet things. you just don't throw something into print or put something on the air without vetting it. your "times" reporters noted that these stories did occur originally contemporaneously that other people had heard >> donald trump has threatened to sue "the new york times" in the past. just recently when they published his -- part of his tax summaries, up to this day he has not sued them yet and not sued them yet on this particular article. if he were to sue them, what would the discovery process look like? >> well, this is the question that you and gayle both want answered and charlie does, too. anyone who files a lawsuit for defamation in a case like this involving allegations of sexual misconduct is asking for
8:06 am
this is when we say, be careful what you wish for. in the discovery process, he has said i didn't do these particular things. you said to anderson cooper, i never kissed or groped a woman against her will. we might find out in a lawsuit more. not only in a deposition to him but also looking and casting about for other women, this would be a nightmare. >> so if you were donald trump's lawyer, you'd say, look, we can send this letter threatening and saying withdraw it, but what? what would your counsel be to mr. trump? >> well, my counsel would be that he could demand the retraction, which he has already done with a letter, because it is too late to catch that train. it's gone. but i would not tell him to sue, because i do think that opening
8:07 am
i have "never" done this. so the discovery process, i think, would be horrendous for him and if we think some people came out of nowhere, just wait if there were a lawsuit. >> could he see the people that are cited in the story? >> yes, you can. and he may want to threaten to do that or, in fact, do that for the idea that it may deter others from coming forward. >> thank you. >> thank you. >> nice to see you. >> nice to see you, mrs. bratton. >> indeed. say hello to bill. the longest serving monarch in the world died a short time ago. thailand's king pondanyadebt was 88. a palace spokesman in bangkok said he died peacefully. he was on the throne since 1946 and suffered from multiple medical problems in recent years. the death has plunged the nation into mourning. you can see people on the street sharing their grief. his 63-year-old son is expected

charlotte man killed by police confirms that keith lamont scott died from gunshot wounds in the back and abdomen. officers fired at 43-year-old scott last month. he was sitting in his car waiting for his son to arrive home. police say he was armed with a gun. his family say he was not. the video was captured by police and scott's wife. we sat down with rakeyia scott for the first time of what she remembers about that day and an interview you will only see on "cbs this morning." when d problem? when did you know this was a bad situation? >> when i came out the door and two officers were pointing their gun at my husband in the car. >> reporter: what is your husband doing at this point? >> he is sitting in the car. he's just sitting there looking forward. he is confused. i know he was. he had just taken his medicine. >> reporter: we hear you come to the scene. >> keith! don't do it! >> reporter: and you're saying, "keith, don't do it." >> don't you do it. >> reporter: keith, don't do it.
8:15 am
>> i'm not talking to keith. i'm calling keith's name for him to hear me. i'm talking to the officers. >> don't do it. that i actually see changing their stance, their positions. >> reporter: did they know who you were? >> no. >> reporter: i'm sure in the heat of the moment, they are trying to figure out who is this woman standing here? >> no, they wouldn't have known me personally, but i was the only one out there. i'm yelling at them. i'm loud enough for them to hear me. keith! keith! no, they probably didn't know i was his wife but i'm somebody of importance. >> the police report says they encountered your husband, that he was in the car, that they saw marijuana, and that they saw a gun. what did you see? >> no gun. >> reporter: you didn't see any gun? >> no gun. >> reporter: and let's assume he had the marijuana and that he had the gun. at the moment of the shooting is what i think people are focusing on and to that, you say what? >> he had no gun.
8:16 am
and -- and he had just -- he was just not a threat, period. he didn't have a gun. he wasn't a threat. what is your purpose? what was your reasoning? why? you saw him backing up. why didn't you just say give him a command then? >> reporter: the police also say the videotape is inclusive. >> i was there and i saw this incident unfold before my face. what people don't understand, they are trying to bring in our past, but prior to -- i mean, after november the 2nd, after this accident, after his motorcycle accident and when he returned home in january, he was a totally different person. >> reporter: let's talk about that for a second, because there has been a lot of publicity about the fact you had taken out a restraining order against him. >> that is correct. >> reporter: that he had pulled a gun on you, that there had been violence in the marriage and to that you say what? >> all of it is correct,
8:17 am
understand our marriage. >> reporter: does that have anything to do with this case? >> had they known him, then i would understand why they would be in, you know, in defense mode. they didn't know who my husband was. they didn't know nothing about him. >> reporter: i heard saw i he has tbi, traumatic brain injury. he has just taken his medication. >> he had tbi and not do anything to you guys. he just took his medication. he takes 11 different medications. you have to give i if not -- if you start a conversation with him, he's not going to remember the conversation once the medicine has kicked in. don't you do it! [ bleep ] did you shoot him? did you shoot him? >> reporter: what do you think the role race has played in the shooting of your husband? >> 100%. >> reporter: but people say officer vincent is black and your husband is black. >> officer vincent i don't believe shot my husband. >> reporter: what do you mean
8:18 am
husband? >> because of the positioning when the shooting actually occurred. officer vincent was to my left further. my positioning was to where i could see the officer with the white shirt, my husband, the police -- the officer with the dash cam, and the officer right here with the red shirt. >> reporter: you did not see officer vincent at the time, or did you? >> no, no. i did see him but he's at a distance. he is not a part of the interaction. >> reporter: i see. so, to you, it doesn't make sense that officer vincent was the one that pulled the trigger? >> correct. >> reporter: what does the police department have to gain by saying it was a black officer who shot your husband? >> i'm not sure what they have to gain. i'm just going by what i recall and believe that day. >> reporter: and how are your children?
8:19 am
just why. why did you have to take keith? give us your reason! the real valid reason as to why my husband -- my husband's life was taken that day before me. >> now there are seven children, guys, that range in age. they have been together for 25 years and seven children and range in age from 9 to 23. and she said, you know, they are taking it day-by-day, but the officer she is talking about, his name is brently vincent was identified by the rakeyia said ballistic tests could clear this up and no results have been released. that is why they did an independent autopsy because they have gotten no information about the autopsy or ballistics and the whole encounter lasted three minutes and police had gone there to execute a warrant on someone else and had nothing to do with keith lamont scott. they saw him and engaged in an encounter with him but she said beginning to end was three minutes. >> how did the police answer her
8:20 am
>> she said no one has given her an answer and to this day, no one has talked to her and said we're sorry or had a conversation with her about that day. she's in a lot of pain and you could feel her pain and you could feel her anger. she really held it together but as soon as the interview was over, she burst into tears. she said i wanted to get through this and i didn't want people to see the pain that i'm in and i wanted to tell my story today. >> was there a gun or not a gun? >> the policsa gun. the family still say there was not a gun but the police say, yes, there was a gun. >> you could hear the fear in her voice almost anticipating. >> that is why she pulled out the phone. she said that's what you have to do these days. >> the presidential election could have an impact on your financial future. ahead we will bring you the results of a new survey from the world's largest investment firm and that is here on "cbs this morning."

future. so people are sitting in cash at a very, very bad moment when interest rates are so low and globally some rates across the world are actually negative, so they need to invest this money into the market today. and i think there are many, many opportunities for them to do that but it's so critical that they get this money invested or they won't have enough for retirement. >> what is the safest thing to be in? >> well, thif in ti think in th people say after the election they will focus 20% more of their portfolios in equities and 20% more in bond.
8:37 am
dividend and dividends have always been a large portion of the total return of a stock, are very important. these are large cap companies, open your refrigerator, see the companies that represent different product that pay a good dividend. you can get 4% to 5% dividends versus being in cash at 25 basis points. i also think, charlie, because there is over 50 trillion, 50 trillion dollars of cash that is sitting in banks earning next to nothing and some places, negative. >> right. >> that when that money starts to get allocated, it's going to keep rates lower for longer and it's actually going to buoy the stock market to rise. so i think there is some really good opportunity in income generating equities, municipal bonds, no matter who wins the election, and short term maybe high-yield bonds that give people some income because that
8:38 am
future. >> the federal reserve minutes were released and indicated, once again, we are expecting interest rates to rise, probably after the election. what impact do you think that will have? >> well, it really is not going to change people's lives the next day. so if interest rates rise 25 or 50 basis points, it may beginning the signal of rises in interest rates, and that is why i would say people should be in shorter term bonds so they will get the opportunity to invest their coupon at higher rates later. but like most people in t survey, they realize in the election and also in the federal reserve, that the economy, today, is not going to change the day after the election and a day after interest rates rise. >> does blackrock bleach the federal reserve will raise interest rates in december? >> well, there's a 50% chance and what janet yellen is looking at, the jobs. >> does blackrock think it's a good idea to raise interest rates?
8:39 am
it would be a good idea to begin the process of raising rates. it's hard for people to live off of the incomes they have today with the higher tlif er cost of. if you look at where short-term rates are, this changes people's lives. in a sense, it's a self-tax on the future. they need higher interest rates so that the money that they have deposited in banks or in money market funds gives them some income so that they can take that income, pay down their debts, and have som over to invest in the future. >> thank you, rob. >> we always like it when you come up to the table. >> a pleasure. >> thank you very much. restaurants in the nation's capital are about to get some international recognition. ahead, and first on "cbs this morning," jan crawford finds out what it takes for restaurants to earn a coveted michelin star. it's hard to do. we're off to a chilly start
