the mother of one of them is speaking to abc news. >> i love you, and get back to where you belong in prison before you get hurt. >> reporter: this after we learn from kind of relationship that employee joyce mitchell may have had with the inmates. >> she was befriended or befriended the inmates and may have had some sort of role in assisting them. >> reporter: sources tell abc news mitchell is cooperating with investigators and want to know whether she played a role in them getting the power tools to bust out and why did she check herself into a hospital on the same day as the prison break. she suffered what has been described as severe chest pains. her son defending her saying she's not the kind of person to help prisoners escape telling us the truth will come outment now the search for david sweat and richard matt include new york and vermont. officials saying that's where they said they might go. >> i want to say to vermonters, this is no time to panic, it's a time to be sensible. >> reporter: overnight, we're

hearing from a former accomplice of richard matt who testified against him for torturing and killing his boss in 1997. the accomplice asking not to be shown on camera as he fears he'll be targeted. >> he's extremely dangerous. he's very evil. i've seen what he can do. >> reporter: and in philly police called that investigation, extremely preliminary. as for the search in new york, well that is happening three miles from the prison. that's where corrections officers live. so, for them, it is personal, george. now we turn to severe weather. intoing from coast to coast of the and more on the way. let's go to ginger. here in tampa. they had 3 inch per hour rainfall rates. more than 126 storm reports in all. pockets from california to ohio.

storms exploding across the country. watch again. lightning, blowing out those transformers in central florida. striking this beach in daytona. almost 7 inches of rain near tampa, falling in just five hours. >> we are literally in about three feet of water. it's coming over our roof! >> hail up to 4 inches in diameter in illinois now. and then this -- >> this is so ridiculous. >> reporter: flash flooding in california, dry creeks now flowing. colorado skies packed with thunderstorms. a dust storm causing an 11-car pileup killing two people and new video out of wisconsin showing us the dangers of driving during heavy rain. in nebraska, water flowing so fast, it's rushing out of the storm drain. 2 inches of rain falling in 30 minutes with 60-mile-per-hour winds blowing over this. louisiana hit hard by the same flooding that made history in

may in texas and oklahoma. the water traveling east, flooding louisiana rivers that are at their highest water levels in seven decades. >> i'd say at least a foot in the house, if it wasn't for this wall. >> reporter: floodwater overpowering this six-foot sandbag wall and forcing families out of their homes. >> all we can do is wait and pray and stay hopeful. [ sirens ] >> reporter: in florida, firefighters making their way through flooded streets, tending to damage caused by an ef-0 tornado. 80-mile-per-hour winds, toppling trees and ripping off roots. so this is the area that will see the danger today looking for afternoon and evening storms right along the low so that's the enhanced threat from iowa into parts of missouri almost to detroit and back to almost denver. you could see damaging wind hail and of course an isolated tornado. flash flood watches in the mountain west and right here in parts of the plains, 3 to 4 inches in the next couple of days. we'll watch not only that but the severe storms today. >> ginger thank you. george, over to you.

we turn now to the massive breach of government computers. chinese hackers may target chinese nationals, for blackmail or retaliation. martha raddatz is tracking all of the latest. good morning, martha. >> reporter: good morning, george. when you deal in sensitive national security for the u.s. government, which requires a high level security clearance, you must list all of your foreign contact, people you know or deal with around the world. those may be friends, diplomats, some who might be helping the u.s. government so the suspected chinese hackers could now have a list of all of those names and use the information to blackmail or threaten their own people and this enormous data breach hit very high levels in the u.s. government including current and former cabinet secretaries. it is a devastating breach and investigators are still trying this morning to find out what more the hackers have gotten and how they are using it, george. >> high levels and it could have gone back decades.

thanks very much. now to a health alert. abc news learned that the cdc is getting ready to issue an urgent warning about the deadly disease called mers as south korea battles a major outbreak. linsey davis has more from washington. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. south korea announced today a tenth person has now died from mers and now american doctors will be told to be on the lookout for people with symptoms of the illness. this tiny little virus is wreaking havoc in south korea causing severe acute respiratory illness including fever, cough, shortness of breath and in some people, death. mers, also known as the middle east respiratory syndrome spreading in south korea in the past two weeks where confirmed cases have skyrocketed to 122. ten people have died, and 2800 more are quarantined. faces covered by masks to avoid contracting the disease which is

believed to be spreading through coughing. saudi arabia has been battling the virus since 2012. they've seen more than a thousand cases. but the virus has spread like wildfire in south korean hospitals leaving scientists concerned. some saying it's possible the first patient there may be a super-spreader, someone who seems to be more contagious than others. last month that patient, a 68-year-old man traveled to several mers-affected countries in the arabian peninsula and returned to korea in may already ill, he visited three hospitals in the nine days it took to receive a diagnosis he may have spread it to more than 20 people who in turn spread it to others. 16 countries have reported cases of mers as a result of travelers coming back from the middle east but this is the first one with a big outbreak, george. >> okay, thanks. let's talk to dr. richard besser about this. we heard about that super-spreader. how unusual is this and what's the threat in the united states?

>> this would be the first time there's any hint of a super-spreader outside of the middle east. that has the cdc concerned. you know, mers can look like a number of respiratory infections, fever, cough, shortness of breath. they want to make sure that hospitals and clinics are on alert, that anyone with those symptoms are asked about travel to the middle east or south korea, and if they have those systems and traveled, they're isolated and workers are protected. >> meanwhile, there's another big health headline this morning, a big study showing common heartburn medications may actually be linked to high risk of heart disease. >> this is getting a lot of attention. researchers at stanford, they looked at more than 3 million electronic medical records and wanted to answer the question, is there a connection between heart attack and a particular type of heartburn medication called protein pump inhibitors and found a small increase, 16% increase in heart attacks in people taking those medications. >> so what should people who are taking those medications do right now? >> this kind of study can't

answer the question definitively as to whether there's a risk. possible the people taking those medications had more medical problems. it's also possible some people who were truly having chest pain were taking heartburn medications for that instead but it points researchers in a direction where they have to do more research but no one is saying anyone should stop taking their medication because of this. >> you'll take questions on twitter all morning? >> i will. >> to paula faris now with today's other top stories. >> good morning, george and amy. we do have crucial testimony resuming this morning. the ex-girlfriend of movie theater shooter james holmes is on the stand speaking publicly for the first time since that massacre. she says her first date with holmes was at a horror movie festival. it was his first romantic relationship but she ended it testifying, quote, he liked me more than i liked him. prosecutors argue the breakup was a catalyst for the shooting in aurora, colorado, five months later. new details in the d.c. mansion murder investigation. a bloody baseball bat was found inside the home.

that mansion was set on fire killing a couple, their son and housekeeper and authorities revealed they found a water bottle with fingerprints on it and arrested daron wint, but they believe he had help. and look at this in mississippi, and suv came crashing through a restaurant pinning one patron under the bumper. apparently the driver suffered a medical problem before the crash. and we have a passing to note. british arkter christopher lee has passed away much playing count dracula. and recently you remember him playing the wicked wizard to "lord of the rings" and for star wars he'll be known os the count. he was 373 years old. a major meltdown in the major leagues.

torii hunter of the twins ejected for arguing a strike call then he was -- yanked off his elbow pads, shin guards and gloves and threw them toward the batter's box. he's not done. he took off his jersey and threw that as well before retreating to the dugout. in his defense, that was not a strike. [ laughter ] and finally these were no hungry, hungry hippos. i did love that game, by the way. watch what happens at a zoo in europe when a duckling falls in. can't get out. the nervous family watching nearby. he tried and tried. couldn't scale that ledge. looks like the hippos are going to have lunch. watch. they work together and lift the little duckling up with their snouts raising him over that ledge. the baby duck takes off to his momma. safe and sound. later one of the hippos -- >> running for her life. >> but one of the hippos let out a big yawn exhausted. but thankfully that had a good ending. the circle of life. >> the children's book. >> i love it. >> favorite game, hungry, hungry hippos. i could take any of you down. >> thank you. >> nice to know, paula.

well, now to that dramatic rescue caught at sea. the coast guard saving the crew of a sinking fishing boat lifting all four on board to safety. abc's tom llamas is here with more on that story. good morning, tom. >> reporter: good morning to you. the coast guard had just minutes to rescue these fishermen. when you see the video you'll understand why. making things even more challenging, one of those didn't know how to swim. dramatic video of a race against time for four salmon fishermen off the coast of alaska. >> one guy just went over on the starboard side. >> reporter: a coast guard helicopter launching into action rushing to answer the mayday call of the quickly sinking 73-foot fishing vessel. >> probably end up putting our swimmers into the water to pick you up. >> reporter: the coast guard capturing final moments as the ship began its final descent into the abyss. >> i've got one man that's pretty old and can't swim. >> roger that, captain. >> reporter: the pilot instructing the men below wearing immersion suits, waterproof suits to protect from

hypothermia to abandon ship. >> they got a good system going straddling that thing for stability. >> reporter: a life raft is deployed at the stern, followed by this heart-stopping moment as one of the fishermen jumps off the boat struggling to get if. >> he looks like he made it in. >> reporter: that's the coast guard's rescue swimmer now in the water. >> they need to get away from that boat. >> reporter: assisting the men into the raft the fishermen transported up to the chopper in the rescue basket. >> coming down to 35 feet from here. >> reporter: one by one with just one man left on board the ship is listing and has just seconds left before sinking but the coast guard whose motto is always ready proves just that pulling up the fourth fisherman before the sea took them like it took their boat. and this morning all four fishermen are doing well and great the coast guard got there when they did, george. that water 40 degrees or colder, the waves six feet high. >> oh, my goodness. thanks very much. now to game four of the nba finals. they are tonight, king james and

the cavs lead 2-1 thanks to this year's surprise breakout star matthew dellavedova. his crazy hustle has them on the brink of their first championship ever and sage steele sat down with him before tonight's big game. she joins us now from cleveland. good morning, sage. >> reporter: good morning, george. you know, all this began exactly one week ago when cavs all-star point guard kyrie irving went down fractured his kneecap out for the next three or four months. he is crucial to the cavaliers' success, which is why, when most experts were asked their prediction after the injury they said no way. cleveland has no chance to beat the warriors. however, not so fast, an unlikely hero has emerged. the cleveland cavaliers' win on tuesday was thanks in large part to the gutsy play by matthew dellavedova, the scrappy guard. >> look who is on the floor. who else. >> reporter: the 6'4" australian played so hard he was hospitalized overnight for severe cramping and dehydration.

how are you? how are you feeling? >> i'm feeling better today. >> reporter: some say this tough titan plays a little too rough. people call you a dirty player. are you a dirty player? >> no. >> reporter: how do you describe yourself as a player? >> tough, competitive. just trying to win. >> all: delly, delly. >> reporter: his a cinderella story of sorts. known as delly averaged less than five points per game during the regular season as a backup then turning up the heat in crunch time scoring 20 points in the last game holding his own defending current league mvp, steph curry. >> dellevedova and one. >> the australian government has the power to knight citizens of our country. would you endorse sir dellevedova? >> whatever is in favor of good for delly, i'm all for it. >> only people that matter is what people think of you inside that locker room and to have their respect means a lot.

>> reporter: and while dellevedova might be one of the lowest paid players in these finals, earning in one season what king james makes in just three games, together, they're only two games away from winning the championship. >> all: delly, delly, delly. >> reporter: i'm telling you they absolutely love matthew dellavedova here in cleveland and apparently across the country because in the last week since the finals began, more delly jerseys have been sold across the country than in the entire six months of the regular season leading up to the finals beginning. pr is here for the nba. they told me good luck. i wanted to have a prop for you. i have no delly jerseys. you can't find them anywhere. >> sold out. >> that's how popular this kid is. >> i think delly is getting a raise. >> let's hope so. sage, thank you very much. >> he's hoping he gets a ray. >> the game will be tonight right here on abc. 9:00 eastern and the rest of sage's interview will be on "nba countdown" before that. but now we have to get to

>> that's right. only a tiny am of shrimp coming into the country, less than 4%, are ever inspected or tested for filth, bacteria or illegal chemicals from the food and drug administration and now some fear the situation is about to get worse. america is on a shrimp binge, fried shrimp, barbecued shshmp, shrimp cocktail. 90% of this country's shrimp comes from overseas, and now there is concern from food safety advocates that a vote tomorrow in congress about a new trade treaty could lead to lower u.s. inspection standards for shrimp coming in from southeast asia. >> our standards will be lower. that is what the risk is. >> reporter: as it is, there's a problem. according to "consumer reports," 55% of shrimp from southeast asia they purchased at leading american supermarkets and then tested had some amount of bacteria. >> so a lot of bad stuff potentially is getting through. >> that's correct. >> reporter: the negotiations for the new pacific trade treaty

have been conducted in secret but food safety advocates believe it will require u.s. and asian safety rules to be standardized or harmonized. >> the problem is that when you negotiate your standards and lower them in order to achieve that harmony, you are, in fact, undermining the integrity of your standards. >> reporter: the white house claims the agreement will not lower u.s. health standards but will instead raise them for the farms in asia which ship hundreds of tons of shrimp to american consumers every year. the white house has pledged to eventually make the trade agreement public, but not before congress votes on it tomorrow to give president obama the authority to broker the secret deal, george. >> a lot of controversy over whether the trade agreement will make it better or worse. in the meantime what should people do when cooking shrimp. >> cooking shrimp will kill most of the filth and bacteria. when you handle raw shrimp be sure to wash your hands because

billionaire businessman, the man behind the virgin empire is offering some of his workers a year-long parental leave including men and rebecca jarvis is here with the story. >> good morning. this is from a man who dropped out of high school then went on to create one of the most valuable companies in the world. now richard branson says take care of your employees and they will take care of your business. he's giving them an extremely rare benefit. a full year off for both new moms and new dads. >> make sure that there's as much flexibility in the workplace as possible. >> reporter: billionaire businessman sir richard branson, the maverick behind virgin records, a sleek airline company and a champion of space tourism now trying to revolutionize the workplace. >> whoo! >> reporter: in a statement released late wednesday he announced one year pay for parental leave saying that he's proud virgin is leading the way on workplace well-being. >> we've got quite a lot of

exciting new projects. >> reporter: critics say that the new policy will only let about 140 people who have worked in upper management for at least four years take the full paid leave but even so, the announcement immediately made headlines hailed as an important step forward for families everywhere and very much in line with branson's view of business. your one piece of advice to people who want to change the world like richard branson has? >> the most important thing is to start and, you know, if you have an idea that can make people's lives better, that's the business and just get out and do it. and if you manage to spend 50 years in business, you will have created the next virgin. >> reporter: in the u.s., less than 15% of all employers report offering any paid leave at all. branson's move at a global company sure to spark fire here across the atlantic. >> and, rebecca is here along with tory johnson.

this is really something, rebecca. it's got to be, though, pretty expensive for the company in a lot of different ways. why is he doing it? >> it's expensive but it's about loyalty and competition. he creates loyalty among employees and creates competition with all the other employers out there. if you say, hmm, i'd be interested in working somewhere else he can turn around and say, come work for me, i am offering you this benefit and keep the best and brightest. >> that said, tory, do you think it will spark change in the united states? we're seeing a trend like this around the world but not necessarily here in the states. >> not so much here at all. it would be great if all big bosses wanted to be just like branson. but the reality is, in this country something like only 14% of employers offer any kind of paid time off for parents and so forget even about a year, how about we just start the six weeks for everybody, even just that and i think, though, that something like this brings more men into the conversation and more men in the conversation can only be a great thing for everybody. >> agreed. >> so that's great. >> including dads is a big deal.

>> as a working parent how does this time off allow you to be more successful at the office. >> in two specific ways. one is when you work for a company that you know treats you as a whole person not just as a little worker bee, but they care about you as a whole you are so much more dedicated, devoted, loyal to that specific company and i think most of us know that when things are good at home you're so much more capable about focusing on work when you're at work. >> it's about balance. but there are companies that have really generous policies and people still opt out of these. why? >> they do. i think, you know, people opt out partially because there's a stigma attached to it. uh-oh, he's on the mommy -- he's on the daddy track. she's on the mommy track. how serious are they about being here? >> there's that fear of career advancement and unfortunate even when companies are saying, this is available people are opting out because they want to advance

in their own career. >> part of what richard is thinking. he's offering a full year but people might not necessarily take it all. >> he cares about his kids and grandkids taking time off when he was young was important. >> it might change the perception among other co-workers changing what people think about where your priorities are and how good of a worker you can still be. >> especially when you see executives doing it. when you see leaders doing it within the company and think, he's doing it, she's doing it and that's okay? maybe it's okay for me too. >> even though you may not take it it's great to have the option. >> incredible. >> i came back from maternity leave and one co-workers asked how my vacation was. not really a vacation. had a baby and had to recover. >> coming back to work is a vacation, right? >> exactly. >> all right. thank you, tory. thank you, rebecca. next up on our "gma heat index," jessica alba going from the big screen to the cover of "forbes" magazine. the actress who now runs a billion with a "b" dollar business is speaking out about how she proved a lot of people wrong along the way.

but the gordons have taken their heartbreak and turned it into a call to action. their quest, taking them literally around the world to researchers in new zealand. >> we believe that we found the scientists and the doctors who can cure our girls, the unfortunate problem for us and for everyone afflicted with batten's disease is funding doesn't exist. >> reporter: it's a race against time for a cure so the family has started a foundation and are harnessing the megawattage powers like channing tatum and jennifer garner and so many others flooding social media to raise money and awareness. >> it gives us hope that not only are we going to be able to hopefully save our daughters but we're going to be able to save these other children. >> reporter: so do you believe in miracles? the gray family is counting on it. >> we're never going to give up hope so we're going to keep fighting every day to find a cure. >> one, two, three. wee! >> reporter: for "good morning america," juju chang, abc news, new york.

emotional honesty and there's a certain physical nature to the work so the combination of those two elements have led us to understand that it's actually quite effective and can be transformative in their lives. it gets them to deal with their emotions in a more honest way and the way i put it, it's a public safety issue. all these guys in prison, most guys 90% of them are getting out at some point and they're going to be moving to your neighborhood. wouldn't you want them to have better tools coming out than when they went in? and there's a shocking lack of rehabilitative services in the prison system in america. >> such important work. thanks for doing it.
