good morning, america. right now, police investigating a death threat against caroline kennedy, the u.s. ambassador to japan. also right now, robert durst's home in houston raided by police, looking for new evidence, as the suspected killer is moved to a mental health facility. and heroes of that water taxi rescue speaking out this morning. as we say good morning, america. a lot to get to this morning including our big "sound" -- listen to that -- big "sound of music" spectacular. there they are in times square, right now, the new york city children's choir. ♪ brown paper packages ♪ >> we want to sing but we'll spare you. the one and only diane sawyer is with us with a preview of her special with julie andrews and some incredible behind-the-scenes stories. >> it's all coming up tonight. but first, the latest on robert durst.

the millionaire heir charged with murder was moved to a mental health facility last night as police in houston raided his home searching for evidence. abc's matt gutman is tracking the case from st. gabriel, louisiana, good morning, matt. >> reporter: hey, good morning. over that fence and through that field right there and all that fog is the acute mental health facility and that's where robert durst is waking up this morning in this isolated part of louisiana. now, sources are telling me his mental health condition has deteriorated since his arrest. that as his case has taken more twists and turns. the legal vise around robert durst continues to tighten. the 71-year-old appearing disoriented leaving court tuesday rail thin and smiling eerily into a photographer's lens. police raiding his luxury condo in houston overnight, carrying out boxes of potential evidence and here in louisiana an appeals court judge moving him to a facility for inmates in need of mental health treatment. right now the sheriff's deputies are moving durst from this jail facility to a mental health

facility. that's him in that cruiser right there. newly released court documents reveal he takes hydrocodone for pain along with other medication and then there's the marijuana. during his arrest in a posh new orleans hotel over the weekend, police say they found a whopping five ounces of it. but durst's biggest legal challenge remains that capital murder charge out of los angeles for his alleged 2000 execution of his best friend, susan berman, a murder authorities hint may have something to do with the disappearance of his wife kathy in 1982. much of the mystery chronicled in the hbo docu-series, "the jinx." during the show's finale durst muttered what seemed to be an off-camera confession? >> killed them all, of course. >> reporter: durst's attorney implied the show prompted his arrest. >> the basis for his arrest, it's not based on facts, it's based on ratings. >> reporter: also overnight, police in eureka, california,

telling abc news they want to talk to investigators in the durst case about the 1997 disappearance of 16-year-old karen mitchell who they believe met foul play. at that time police released this composite sketch which seems to resemble durst. now, we know that durst lived in that area at that time and this is the second time that this possible link is being investigated. still police say he is not a suspect and caution against overreaching. meanwhile, he'll have to spend the next five days in that facility until his bail hearing on monday. george. >> okay, matt gutman, thanks very much. let's get more on this from dan abrams. we saw durst's lawyer who won a lot of big cases in the cowboy hat and we're seeing the beginnings of his defense. >> and helped durst previously. we are see the defense and that will be pointing the finger at the documentary. the problem with that, of course, is he's saying it's not based on the facts. well, of course, it is based on the facts that were learned as

part of a documentary that did get good ratings, okay, fine, but that doesn't -- it's a nice slogan but it doesn't address the fundamental question of, did robert durst do it? >> now, at the same time, you know, you saw the durst lawyers want to get to california to face the charges right away but he's facing this gun charge in new orleans which could be 10 to 20 years in prison if convicted. >> yeah, i'm sure the california prosecutors want him there. i'm sure the defense attorneys want to move this case over there but there could be a delay. i mean, it could be that they decide in louisiana to move forward with that case and there's an argument to be made that that wouldn't be such a bad thing. >> that's what i was going to ask about. it gives the prosecutors more time and also, if convicted, gets him in jail no matter what. >> i think that the prosecutors in california might want a little distance from this documentary. i mean, right now, there's so much talk and so much buzz about what's happening with the documentary, if i'm the california prosecutors i may say, you know what, we're okay with taking a little time here letting this settle down and allowing us to focus on the facts. >> doesn't appear like the

defense is going in this direction but we hear about these mental health problems with durst and could that lay the groundwork for a future insanity defense. >> no, maybe not fit to stand trial and they somehow argue he doesn't understand the writings, can't assist in his defense but insanity defense would relate to his mental state at the time of the crime. when you're talking about his mental state today it simply can relate to the question of, can he stand trial? very tough standard to say you're not competent to stand trial. >> okay, dan abrams, thanks very much. and switching gears to a dramatic rescue at sea and all of it caught on camera. the fast-thinking crew of a water taxi in charleston, south carolina, racing to pull an unconscious man and his friends out of the water. abc's gio benitez has our story. >> i need an ambulance at charleston harbor resort and marina. >> we'll lift him onto the dock. one, two, three. >> reporter: watch, a lovely day at sea turns into a dramatic race for survival.

>> someone's unconscious. >> reporter: when this charleston water taxi typically used for sightseeing and dolphin watching becomes an emergency lifeline for a 28-year-old man unconscious in south carolina's charleston harbor. the man wishing to remain anonymous tells us he fell off a sailboat while having a seizure. his friends jumping in after him desperately trying to keep him afloat. >> we pretty much put the hammer down and got there as quick as we could. >> let's go! >> reporter: with eight passengers on board his water taxi, captain matt balassome decided to take the dramatic detour. then with time running out, that water taxi hearing the sailboat's mayday call on the radio. >> sos, i've got three men in the water here at the dock. at patriot's point marina. i need help immediately. >> reporter: arriving at the dire scene even before emergency response crews. two passengers and captain balassome's trained crew helping too including robert schultz who just started his first day on the job. >> it was go time. >> stay with him.

now a push by starbucks to tackle the touchy issue of race relations. after events like the shooting in ferguson, the coffee giant is encouraging baristas to get the conversation going with customers, but there is major

backlash this morning. abc's neal karlinsky has the story. >> reporter: for most of us a conversation at your friendly neighborhood starbucks is about as heavy as a scene from "sex and the city." >> i would love a career in fashion. >> oh. >> this is not nonfat. >> oh. >> reporter: but this morning starbucks' ceo howard schultz hopes to change that taking on nothing short of america's racial divide one cup at a time. >> what if we were to write race together on every starbucks cup and that facilitated a conversation between you and our customers. >> reporter: #racetogether in ads and coming soon written on the side of a frappuccino near you. the idea is to encourage people if they feel comfortable to talk about race relations. do you think that's a good idea to try to get the discussion going? >> i personally just don't want to see it on my coffee cup. that's just me.

>> just encouraging the conversation, not really driving it towards any certain direction. that sounds like a good idea to me. >> reporter: but social media is lighting up with skepticism, snark and even anger. "how long do you think i could discuss reparations in a starbucks before everyone gets nervous and i get tasered," tweeted one. "a daily show" comedian tweeting, "before they write race together on cups, can starbucks just spell my name correctly?" and there was this, "there are people who have the time and training to facilitate discussion about race, but they are not starbucks baristas." starbucks' own vp of communications temporarily deleting his twitter account under an avalanche of criticism saying he felt personally attacked. in a cascade of negativity. schultz himself seemed to anticipate some pushback. >> some said, howard, this is not a subject we should touch. i reject that completely. >> reporter: coffee talk. heating up the national conversation just maybe not the

another person's account with just a couple of taps on your phone but are they keeping your money safe? "gma investigates" one of the most popular apps called the venmo and abc's becky worley explains. >> reporter: on college campuses. >> venmo. >> reporter: it's how they split the bill or handle shared rent. >> venmo. >> venmo. it's very useful. >> venmo. >> venmo. >> reporter: venmo is a smartphone app that lets you send money to your friends instantly. and then it holds that money in a virtual account that links to your bank or credit card account so, for example, if you need to split a $20 taxi ride you can transfer $10 with venmo instead of handing over cash. >> for 2015 they're doing about a billion dollars a quarter. >> reporter: and experts say you may soon be using venmo but as the company grows so do concerns about it keeping your money safe. >> there's no notification on my phone. >> reporter: mosin says a hacker cracked his venmo password and

changed his primary e-mail account and stole $2,000 and he says venmo didn't notify him of any account changes. >> i was dumbfounded something like that could happen. >> reporter: the top complaint emerging on social media what mosin experienced. when he tried to contact the company, venmo offers no phone or live support. you can only submit complaints through an online form. were you ever able to talk to a real human being on the phone? >> no, no one ever contacted me on the phone. >> reporter: mosin says he eventually got his money back but only after he took to twitter to complain. the california department of business oversight cited more than 20 unsafe practices by venmo last year. today the department tells us we continue to work with venmo to obtain full compliance with the order. the day after we contacted venmo about this story, it added a feature that lets users know of any account changes. >> sure enough, i get an alert straightaway that my e-mail address had been changed.

but, if my account had been taken over the way mosin's was there's still the issue of no live customer service. venmo, which is owned by paypal tells "gma investigates," "we're working to be more responsive to your support inquiries. we've made significant progress and will continue to improve in this area." >> even with the issues that are happening, they really are more secure than a lot of other payment methods. >> reporter: for "good morning america," becky worley, abc news, san jose. >> and becky sent us some more tips to keep your money safe. starting with using a password that's strong and unique, not used for any other account and also change your password frequently and cash out often to keep your venmo account sum low. >> that makes a lot of accepts sense right there. we're going to move on to our "heat index" and now to a new study that finds it's never too early to take care of your heart. what you feed your kids now could create serious health risks later, so mara schiavocampo took a look at what you can do to bring those risks down. >> reporter: kid food faves. >> mac and cheese. >> doughnuts. >> french fries and burgers.

>> reporter: picky palettes can make healthy choices tough. >> it's very hard to get my son to eat health y. if he had it his way he would eat pop-tarts and doughnuts all day long. >> reporter: this morning a new study that suggests kids who eat their heart out today could develop heart disease tomorrow. finding nutrition in early life may have long-term influences on cardiovascular health in adulthood. is it ever too young to start thinking about heart health? >> oh, never. it's never too young to start thinking about heart health. >> reporter: the study looked at 9,000 kids and their body mass index, blood pressure, cholesterol and diet, finding 40% of kids 6 to 11 had intermediate to poor cholesterol levels and fewer than 1% of children 5 to 11 had ideal diets. >> kids are eating too much sugar, too much fat and too much salt. and what does that do? that increases their risk of diet-related chronic illnesses as early as 2 years old.

>> reporter: experts say expect to expose kids to new foods about ten times before they'll try them. start with mild flavors like cucumbers, bell peppers and grapes and be creative. you're just making it festive and fun. >> yeah. festive and fun. that's really the key, right. fun and festive so that it gets eaten. >> reporter: healthy snacks today for a healthy heart tomorrow. for "good morning america," mara schiavocampo, abc news, new york. >> thanks to mara for that. we're joined now by our medical contributor, dr. jen ashton and daphne oz from "the chew" and, jen, you're also a nutritionist, you're studying nutrition, as well. this is important. >> yeah, here's the study right here. we know that heart disease is the number one killer of adult men and women. well, we didn't really know how far back we had to search to see the development of the risk factors that we know stack the deck for heart disease so the good news based on this study, most kids start off as a blank slate pretty healthy. the bad news is is that at very

early ages we're starting to see those risk factors pile up with obesity and high blood pressure and it starts with the food choices that they make. >> so let's take a look at some things we can do to prevent that. you start out with juice and you think, boy, that's great for kids. >> yeah, not so much. this is what we call medicine a sugar bowl-less. it has very little nutritional value. we're not saying never drink it. for most children, they can have six ounces a day but in this study over 50% of children drank way too much sugar-sweetened beverage. >> so, daphne, what's the best way to fix that? >> look, i'm going to say water and parents out there are going to be like, have you met my child? but my thought is growing up around my dinner table when we were thirsty that's what you got and got a sugary beverage as a special treat. as a smaller portion. if you want to ease your kids into it, pour half the glass here with juice and fill the rest up with water. >> that's what i do. it really works. >> sparkling water and eases them into it. let them flavor it with some of their favorite fruits.

that's how all of us make healthy choices a priority. >> all kids love pizza. >> all adults too. >> exactly true. we're not saying never. one slice of pizza is not the worst thing but when you're talking about young children, again, it carries a lot of sodium, a lot of salt, a lot of fat in the form of saturated fat and oil and, again, if it's white crust, just the carbs that are not so beneficial so there's definitely healthier alternatives. >> and we see one right there. >> we see one. yeah, i think the single greatest thing you can do trying to get your family on the path to health is to cook one more meal a week at home. and with pizza we probably have a recipe for whole wheat delicious pizza crust on the chew.com, mario batali's, and make it at home or buy it ready made at the store and that way you can control cooking at home from scratch the only way you control what's in your food and also again let your kids have fun. pile some veggies on top. that's a great alternative. if they go for one slice of regular pizza, like you said, it's not going to kill them. >> it is a giant slice. >> exactly. >> i'm always happy when my kids

have cereal in the morning because it means at least they're getting some breakfast. >> okay, but these technicolor -- >> paula. >> but the technicolor cereals we know these are not colors found in nature. again, it's a lot of sugar. it's a missed opportunity to supply healthy things like fiber and, again, if you start off your day loaded with sugar and empty calories, it's only going to go downhill from there. so -- >> i know what it's like to have the fight trying to get out the door. you don't have time to make a healthy breakfast. one thing that i love to do is i'll put all the ingredients for a homemade oatmeal into a container the night before. it soaks overnight in the fridge and then you cook it and shaves the cooking time in half so setting yourself up for success in those tricky ways to quicken the cook time is a great way. >> or maybe once a week. >> once a week. >> thanks, guys. you can watch daphne on "the chew" every weekday on abc at 1:00 eastern. 12:00 central. you'll be taking questions all morning long. tweet her at dr. jen ashton. let's go to amy.

>> you're beautiful. >> who gave boxes to families in need. >> all of this came from the donation of one single person. >> i hear that little person might be standing right next to you. >> did you hear that? >> yeah. >> so it was rihanna that did the donation. [ cheers and applause ] whoo! >> we were so inspired by the work we've seen you do in your community that we wanted to jump in. >> if you can't feed 100 people -- >> feed just one. >> come on now. come on. jim, the cans are upside down. presentation is everything. yes. >> when we announced cheryl had won the grand prize, dreamworks surprised her donating 25,000 meals to her food pantry. and they're not stopping there. >> they'd like to donate another 25,000. [ screaming ]

>> you have to get two girls to wipe that off. >> we got a premiere to get to. ♪ >> finally, the moment cheryl has been waiting for. >> they're bringing the movie to us. >> that is so cool. >> we wanted to shine some light on her today and make her feel special because she makes so many people feel special. i'm a part of cheryl's heart now because she's a mom. >> rihanna just said i'm the mom. i got some real friends in high places now, y'all. >> for "good morning america," rachel smith, plano, texas. >> ah, we are so happy for cheryl, and the runners-up, by the way, to our "gma" brings "home" to your hometown contest also got to join in on the fun and dreamworks also surprised them with donations to their charities. coming up, will ferrell and kevin hart. here live, stay with us. here live, stay with us. and kevin hart. stay with us.
