trump overnight and the latest on the devastation in maui. our gio benitez is live with incredible stories of survival including the couple who told them about the one left turn that saved their lives. we'll hear from gio coming up. first the sweeping indictment of president trump. it came in georgia. he's facing four different felony trials as he runs for president. overnight trump along with 18 associates were indicted on charges of conspireing to overturn the election results in the state. our team covering all the angles. senior investigative correspondent aaron katersky starts us off in atlanta. good morning, aaron. >> reporter: good morning, george. the indictment is expansive and encompassing. it charges 19 people with 41 counts and puts donald trump at the top of what prosecutors call a criminal enterprise. this morning criminal case number four. the state of georgia versus donald john trump. >> the indictment alleges that rather than abide by georgia's
7:04 am
legal process for election challenges, the defendant engaged in a criminal racketeering enterprise to overturn georgia's presidential election results. >> reporter: fulton county district attorney fani willis charging trump and 18 others, including some of his closest allies with racketeering, calling them a criminal organization that knowingly and willfully joined a conspiracy to unlawfully change the election in favor of trump. the grand jury handed up the charges after dark. the indictment delivered to the clerk at 8:54 p.m., nearly 12 hours after prosecutors began presenting their case. minutes later it was handed to the judge for inspection. >> everything went as it should have, in front of the grand jury. >> reporter: trump is charged with 13 counts in a sweeping and detailed indictment that cites acts in georgia and beyond. in addition to racketeering, he's charged with soliciting a public officer to violate his oath, conspireing to committed forgery and file false documents.
7:05 am
before the vote, the grand jury heard testimony from several witnesses, georgia's former lieutenant governor jeff duncan said he was one of them. >> there's been a lot of misinformation for many year. this is our opportunity to get the real story out. my hope is that americans believe it and republicans believe it. that this election was fair and legal. >> reporter: the indictment said trump made multiple calls to georgia republicans including a senator, governor, secretary of state, whose phone call with trump prompted the 2 1/2 year investigation. >> look, all i want to do is this. i just want to find 11,780 votes, which is one more than we have. because we won the state. >> reporter: on that call, raffensperger pushing back against trump's claims. >> you should want to have an accurate election and you're a republican. >> we do believe we do have an accurate election. >> no, you don't.

7:07 am
president trump's first amendment right to free speech. the district attorney has given all 19 defendants until noon time a week from friday to surrender. otherwise she will seek to have them all arrested. >> seems like such a tense and chaotic situation down there. >> reporter: it seemed that way, but really the atmosphere is almost calm. a lot of anticipation, but no sign of protesters. still, the da did express concern about security. the former president on social media attacked the prosecutor and some of the witnesses, so they wanted to get this done. now the d.a. said she's going to be pushing for a trial for all 19 defendants within six months. george? >> aaron, thank you very much. let's bring in dan abrams for more on this. dan, lot of overlap with the last case brought by the special prosecutor around the january 6th investigation. but there are some key differences as well. >> yes. this is a much more sweeping indictment here.
7:08 am
it's much more fact based, based on what happened exactly in georgia as opposed to every other state in the country. and in one sense, this is a more dangerous indictment. it's in effect pardon proof. if he wins the election in a federal case, he can kind of make it go away. this case he can't do that with. but on the flip side of it, there are more sort of political attacks that donald trump and his team can make with regard to this case. there have already been issued with fani willis, for example, with a critical potential defendant. and fund-raising, which he's done. that's gotten her into trouble with the judge in this case. so again you have to look at this as law meets politics. how will the defense attack the case? >> one of the first things they're probably going to get it to do is move into federal court.
7:09 am
one, that will take time. it could get it past the elections. two, if it's in federal court, if they succeed, the president could find a way, if he were elected again, to put the case away. >> right. i think it's going to be hard for them to get it into federal court, but i think the argument they're going to make is, you can't prosecute this at all. they're going to say this is action taken by the president during his time as president. if that's the claim they will argue, that kind of case should only be prosecuted by a federal court, not by a state prosecutor. i think it's one of the first arguments they're going to make. they made this sort of argument in new york. it didn't work in that case. but remember, in that case he wasn't president when the actual conduct occurred. here you're talking about the period in december and january when he's president and he will undoubtedly argue that that sort of conduct should be tried in a
7:10 am
federal court. i'm not saying it's necessarily a winning argument, but it aoepb undoubtedly an argument he's going to make. >> president has been making a free speech defense as well both in the special counsel's case and he'll try to make it here as well. one big difference though with georgia law. georgia law explicitly makes it a crime to have false statements. >> yeah. and i also think that it goes beyond that. that you've got -- the fake electors here, which i think is a critical piece here, right? you're talking about people who literally signed a document, who held a meeting, who declared they were the dully elected representatives of the state when they weren't. that's very different from simply just advocating for, you know, saying that the election should be overturned, etc. then you've all got the tampering with the election equipment after january 6th. that's not a free speech argument. that's a question of, what were
7:11 am
you doing going and taking all the data off of these election machines? those are some of the more difficult areas to defend that don't just deal with advocacy. >> every time this happens i find it astonishing that we're even having this conversation. dan abrams, thank you very much. >> all right, george. former president trump's trials are set to collide with the political calendar as the 2024 presidential race fast approaches. rachel scott has the latest. good morning, rachel. >> reporter: hey, michael, good morning. in the short term, these indictments have had little impact on trump's campaign as the front runner, but in the long term, campaigning will only be more challenging for the former president. take a look at this. trump is now facing roughly half a dozen trials in four different states all while running for president. this is just the legal calendar as it stands now. let's add in the political calendar and this now sets the stage for an unprecedented election cycle. prosecutors in georgia put trump on notice. he must surrender by august 25th. that's just two days after the first republican debate.
7:12 am
his trial in the january 6th case could begin as early as january 2nd. that's two weeks before the iowa caucuses. it continues. just a few weeks after super tuesday in march, a criminal trial in new york over alleged hush money payments and in may the start of a federal trial in the classified documents case. prosecutors in georgia, you heard it from aaron. they want that trial to begin in the next six months. so the bottom line here, trump will fight to delay all of this, but it is very likely he could be spending more time in the courtroom than campaigning. robin? >> as you said, rachel. unprecedented. thank you. now the other big story. the latest on the wild fire disaster in hawaii. the death toll rising to at least 99 people, with the governor warning it could double in the coming days. gio benitez is live on maui. good morning, gio. >> reporter: hey, robin. good morning. we know about 25% of the area has been searched so far. they hope to get to 85% by this weekend. but only three people have been identified so far.
7:13 am
this morning the devastation mounting, and new concerns in the deadliest wild fire in modern u.s. history. new video of people taking cover fleeing to the maui shore line. >> people had to jump over the sea wall and into the water there. some made it. some didn't. >> reporter: shalia and her husband, a pastor, recounting how one left turn may have saved their lives as they evacuated lahaina. >> very sad. >> usually i'm hard headed with my wife. >> i said, lord, direct our steps. and my husband turned left. >> turned left. >> i am so thankful. >> thank you, jesus. we would have ended up -- >> just like everybody else. >> reporter: at least 99 people confirmed dead, and the governor said that number could double. the chilly scope still coming into full view. officials saying at least 2,200 structures were destroyed, 86 percent of them housing.
7:14 am
the family of joe schilling, known locally as uncle joe, says he chose to stay in his apartment complex with five elderly residents who were unable to escape. his loved ones now believe that he most likely died in the fire, sharing these last photos of him. >> there isn't anybody in the family who knew joe that would be surprised that he would put himself at risk to help somebody else. >> reporter: the governor telling us the grim reality is now settling in. >> people are going to realize they lost the person they used to grocery shop with, or their old teacher, or a teenage class member. it's going to be emotionally catastrophic. >> reporter: the demand for answers growing. veteran maui firefighters told our whit johnson they lost their home in the blaze as they were fighting it. saying as firefighters, we're rushing to put out the flames, the hydrants were running dry. >> i felt the hose line coming in from the hydrant, the intake line. it was soft.
7:15 am
i was like, there's no pressure. there's no water. >> reporter: fema telling us they have more than 300 people on the ground to help. there's a lot of criticism on that response calling it slow. what do you say to that? >> the state attorney general is looking into the matter. at the local level, there is interest in lessons learned. >> reporter: here at kings cathedral, they opened an emergency shelter, turning church pews into beds, directing food, clothing, and giving people a place to stay. >> there's so many people that need even just a hug, comfort. >> we just get through it through faith. >> reporter: yeah. here at this church they are not turning anyone away. just one of the many locations here on maui opening their doors to so many folks. now, still here on maui, so many, hundreds, are still unaccounted for. overnight we heard 60 were found alive, all safe in one house together.
7:16 am
michael? >> that is some good news in all of this, gio. thank you for being there for us. we're going to turn to an incredible survival story in the moment four divers missing were found in the waters off north carolina after a 12 hour search. will reeve has details for us. good morning, will. >> good morning, michael. it was a calm day on the open ocean. everybody in the boat were experienced divers. all was well. but when they got to the bottom, they were in the wrong place. they surfaced and their boat was football fields away and the people on it couldn't see them in the water. thus begins the survival story. this morning four divers rescued by the u.s. coast guard in the open ocean. >> the current just kept taking us further and further away. >> reporter: the four were reported missing 63 miles off myrtle beach, south carolina, sunday when they didn't resurface after a dive. >> we decided the four of us all dive at once. that was probably the mistake.
7:17 am
>> reporter: coast guard crews in the area jumping into action, searching the atlantic in the dark for any signs of life. >> whenever a diver goes missing, it's like trying to find a needle in a giant hay stack. >> reporter: then 12:45 a.m. monday, 50 miles south east of cape fear river, north carolina, a coast guard airplane spotting a strobe light in the water blinking a distress signal. >> i saw this flashing light out of the corner of my eye and i alerted the crew. we turned to go check it out. we immediately called north carolina and relaid that we had found the four divers. >> reporter: u.s. navy destroyer ship conducting an unrelated exercise nearby raced over to help. >> they came by. they threw out a flare. >> reporter: just before sunrise, the four stranded divers safely brought on board with no reported injury. the divers reunited with their grateful families. >> all you could do is grab people, hug, cry and celebrate life.
7:18 am
>> reporter: wig begins is a former navy diver so his training and expertise came in handy when things went sideways. the group's morale stayed high throughout the deal. he told the group, no negative comments and praying that we will be rescued. >> that's what happened. >> i like that. no negative comments. thank you for that bud. >> positive attitude at all times. >> that's what you need. thank you for that. coming up, we have the former nfl player whose life inspired the blind side, says he was never adopted and the family actually exploited him for money. body cam footage showing the con frontation between the georgia mother and the husband she's accused of trying to kill just days before she was arrested. and a new ftc warning about rental scams and how to spot fake listings. but first, good morning, ginger. >> good morning, robin. we've got the lookout fire. there are evacuations in place. 1200 acres burning. they were hot. portland, oregon, broke its all time warmest august temperature at 108. houston was 104.

7:33 am
>> tony here is your quarterback. all right? you protect his blind side. when you look at him, you think of me. >> reporter: it was the story behind the oscar winning film, "the blind side" about a homeless black teen taken in by a well to do white family in the south and eventually becoming a first round nfl draft pick. >> where were you taking him, mike? >> to the bus. it was time for him to go home. >> reporter: but this morning the real life inspiration behind that story, michael oher, asserting he was actually blindsided by the family who calls him their adopted son. >> how can i help you? >> i would like to become a legal guardian. >> lord help that child. >> reporter: writing in newly filed court documents that sean and leann tuehy tricked him into what he said were adoption papers but it was a conserve conservatorship, therefore enriching themselves at his expense. adding they only saw him as a gullible young man whose talent could be exposed for their benefit.
7:34 am
oher, who in recent years has spoken out after being less than pleased with his on screen portrayal saying when the movie studio began negotiations to the rights behind his life story, he was paid nothing for something that would not have existed without him. while the tuehy's negotiated for themselves including their two birthed children allegedly getting paid $200,000 each plus a percentage based on the movie's success, the film would make more than $330 million at the box office. leann and sean tuehy have not responded to a request for comment but in the past denied making much money from the project saying they only received a flat fee and anything earned was shared with oher. but the couple's son, sean jr., speaking out to barstool sports saying this legal action was no surprise to the family. >> this is not the first time. couple years in the making. i'm surprised it happened the way it did, but no one was --

7:36 am
oher, sean tuehy said, quote, we didn't make any money off the movie saying we are devastated, it's upsetting to think we would make money off any of our children. but we are going to love michael at 37 just like we loved him at 16. george, you had a chance to interview them back in the day. this was a huge movie. >> huge movie. they've had a huge impact. he's had a pretty consistent story over time. >> not pretty consistent, very consistent of how he was not portrayed correctly. he was here last week. he has a new book. it's how much he has worked. how much hard work he put into it. he knows that he had people who helped him. he barely mentioned the tuehys. he is respectful because of the time, he kept saying, i don't want to dampen the story about adoption. he thought he was adopted. conservatorship is totally different. >> he definitely worked really hard. and definitely not a hollywood ending. >> not at all. >> he was the one who got blind sided. >> i know. >> thank you, demarco. see you on gma3.

halloween time is back in disneyland and disney california adventure parks! we are back with scam u and new ftc warnings for renters looking for new homes. trevor ault is here to tell us how to spot the scam. good morning, trevor. >> reporter: good morning, george. this is a particularly vicious scam. we have people arriving to what they thought was their new home only to find out it's not in their name and may never have been available for rent. so you have people out thousands of dollars, sometimes out of a home. here's how it works. when it comes to renting a house, everyone is looking for a deal. that's just what vicki king of texas thought she was getting. but she told our affiliate ksat it turned out the house her family started moving into was never up for rent.
7:44 am
>> my heart just sunk. >> reporter: king said her family found the rental on craigs list and called to see it. >> he talked us through it. >> reporter: they were told they could use a self-tour using the owner's lock box. >> say going to take a tour, now, yes, unlock the door. it was quick. >> reporter: here's how the scam works. scammers are stealing pictures of homes from other sites, houses that offer the post covid convenience of self-guided tours, where potential renter or buyer can quickly sign up for an account and unlock an electronic lock box. the scammer pretends to be the owner, guides you through the lock box tour and then asks for payment when a victim says they want to rent. >> we're seeing this on our scam tracker. in some cases it's for vacation rentals. but now we're seeing it pop up for residential residences. >> reporter: marilyn morris and the ksat 12 on your side team searched for rentals that seemed too good to be true and googled the address. within minutes ksat found dozens

of hijacked lists. this house was listed for $1,945 a month for its rightful owner but on craigs list this identical listing was just $1,000 a month. 12 on your side team texted the number. the man said he was the owner and could arrange a tour of the property using a legitimate service that provides lock boxes for self-tours. >> okay. we have a key. >> reporter: soon after came a request for money. >> you paid your security deposit. you paid your rent. so you can move in as soon as possible. the property is vacant. it is ready for you to move in. you have the keys in your hand. >> reporter: that legitimate lock box company said it's heavily invested in software and people to reduce security incidents. >> one of the biggest things if you can go and check out the property without the landlord, maybe do a drive by, see if it actually exist. >> reporter: we did reach out to
7:46 am
craigs list for comment. we have not heard back. but we do have tips to avoid the scam. you should google the listing and the address to see if it's the same price anywhere else online. you also want to try to meeted with the landlord or manager in person before you send them any money. if you can, try to pay by credit card. it will be easier to get your money back if you get scammed. >> ksat 12 on your side? >> they did a good job. >> a great job. thanks so much, trevor. >> yep. coming up, fit for a king. we're taking you to king charles private estate. next, we have our play of the day. the real batman. day, the rea batman. ♪ ♪ ents in high-needs schools can't afford essential school supplies. subaru and our retailers are there to help by giving millions of dollars in funding along with school supplies students need. we call it “the subaru love promise” and we are proud to be the largest corporate supporter of
