announcer: this portion of "cbs this morning" sponsored by toyota. let's go places. ? welcome to "cbs this morning." charlie rose is on assignment. so anthony mason is here. >> good morning. >> good to have you here. investigators at the scene of the deadly train accident outside of new york are looking to the engineer for answers. a new jersey transit train full of commuters crashed into the hoboken terminal yesterday and one woman in the station, fabiola bittar de kroon, was killed. more than 100 others were hurt. >> the train was making its final stop at hoboken across the hudson river. officials say it was going very fast and jumped the barriers and landing on the platform. jim axelrod has more. >> reporter: investigators won't be able to fully inspect the

portion of the damaged roof that still sits on the train in the terminal behind me. trains are supposed to approach the station no faster than 10 miles an hour. the officials don't know how fast this train was going yesterday when it pushed onto the platform during rush hour. the force of new jersey transit train 1614 tore apart the concourse inside hoboken terminal. >> i thought we were going to get out. >> reporter: passengers climbed out of the wreckage after the thursday morning crash amid wires, glass, and toppled beams. >> we tried to clear the way for the people that were bleeding more to get out first. >> the train just didn't stop. >> reporter: surveillance video shows the train approximately 40 minutes before the crash. new jersey transit officials say the train made up of four passenger cars and a locomotive

of speed and it jumped over several barriers at the end of the track. >> it went over the bumper block, basically through the air. >> reporter: fabiola bittar de kroon died in the accident. the 34-year-old was hit by debris in the station. more than a hundred others were hurt, including 48-year-old thomas gallagher, the train's engineer. officials say gallagher is cooperating. the ntsb will interview him and piece together a time line of his actions in the 72 hours before the crash. investigators removed one of the locomotive event recorders or black boxes from the wreck app. >> from the event recorder we hope to get information such as speed and breaking. >> they will examine two cameras on the front and back of the train. more than 15,000 new jersey transit riders pass through the hoboken terminal every day and some of those commuters, along with first responders, helped prevent further tragedy. complicating the investigation

concerns over the building's structural integrity stemming from a water leak. investigators expect to be on the ground here in hoboken for the next seven to ten days. anthony? >> jim, thanks. the head of a trauma center that saw dozens of patients says quick action from bystanders and emergency personnel was crucial. all of the passengers on the train survived. the woman who was killed was a lawyer and a mom who had just dropped her daughter off at day care. demarco morgan is in hoboken also with the details on the devastating crash. >> reporter: ordinary people performed unselfish acts at this train station behind me. despite the unsteady ceiling above them and live wires below them, many sprung into action at the height of rush hour. as soon as the commuter train crashed the work to get people out began. 250 passengers were packed inside the new jersey transit train.

>> i think everybody took probably about a good five seconds after that happened and was just like, okay, what just happened? >> reporter: michael larson entered the first car. >> they were crawling on their hands and knees. and we were trying to get, you know, as many people out. i assisted in maybe three or four. >> reporter: you say america's man, i'm not lying. >> everybody color ran to try to help. >> reporter: 34-year-old fabiola bittar de kroon, the married mother of a toddler was on the platform and killed by falling debris. recently moved to hoboken. she had a husband and a child. >> we are in great sadness over that loss. >> reporter: people left through downed ceilings and live wires and asbestos coated debris. incredible many of the dozens who were hurt were only considered walking wounded. >> for trauma, it's about the golden hour. getting them to your trauma center within the first hour and that is what saves lives. >> reporter: governor chris

by the event. >> regular commuters left the safety of where they were standing to rush to the train to help first responders evacuate injured people off the train. this region has developed a resilience that is admired by the rest of the world. >> reporter: there are 21 people that remain in hospitals right now. governor christie says there is a coordinated approach of investigators, and the new jersey transit system's first priority is always public safety. >> demarco, thank you. we spoke to bella dinh-zarr who is vice chair of the national transportation safety board early this morning when she arrived on the scene. what have you learned so far? >> so it's still pretty early on. but what we are doing is we are finding out how to make the scene as safe as possible so that our investigators can

the canopy is actually collapsed on to the train and it's a push/pull configuration where there are three passenger cars with a locomotive at the end. and with that, we're -- we were able to get the recorder out of the locomotive, but we are going to have to wait to get parts of the canopy removed, and so that we can safely access the rest of the cars. >> when do you hope to have some answers? >> we gean what we are doing today is we are having our organizational meetings with all of the people who will -- all of the groups that will give us factual information. so we get technical information from various different organizations, and with that factual collection of data, then we take all of that back. we will be on scene for about seven to ten days, and then --

once the on-scene part is done, we go back and we keep using that information to do our own independent analysis. >> bella dinh-zarr, thank you for your time. >> thank you. in our next half hour, kris van cleave looks at why the train in hoboken didn't have the appropriate train technology that could prevent accidents. >> one of the most-read newspapers is breaking tradition and endorsing anyone but donald trump. "usa today" is taking a stand the editorial board is telling voters not to vote for trump. the paper does not endorse any candidate and has critical words for clinton. but the board says trump is, quote, by unanimous consensus, unfit for the presidency. the election is 39 days away. people in 11 early voting states are already casting ballots. nancy cordes is in ft. pierce, florida, where both candidates are battling for votes. >> reporter: good morning.

theater several hours from now but a crowd has already began to gather. florida is a handful of battleground states where the clinton camp is hoping to use its organizational edge to get supporters like these to the polls well before election day. >> it's a great honor to have her sporting me. she is going to go vote early today. >> reporter: ruly stein decked out her walker and cast voting on the first day of voting in iowa. that is the reason i vote early. i'm not taking any chances. >> reporter: she and other clinton supporters were escorted from a rally in des moines to a polling place and a highly orchestrated effort to run up clinton's vote totals in battleground states, six weeks before election day. >> are you ready to go to the polls. >> reporter: later on her campaign plane, clinton was asked about her favorite world leader.

>> reporter: she was expecting the question one day after it stumped her libertarian opponent gary johnson. >> who is your favorite foreign leader? >> i'm having a brain -- >> reporter: name anybody! >> clinton named angel merkel. >> she has been an extraordinary, strong leader. >> reporter: in new hampshire, trump fielded the same question. >> well, i think merkel is a really great world leader, but i was very disappointed that when she -- this move with the whole thing on immigration. >> reporter: trump has been highly critical of merkel saying at one point she is ruining germany. >> hillary clinton wants to be america's angela merkel. >> reporter: his inconsistencies prompted "usa today" to announce not that they are endorsing clinton, but, quote, disendorsing trump. in an eight-point take-down, the editorial board called trump a dangerous demagogue who is ill equipped to be commander in

and who traffics in prejudice. on clinton, the board split are some expressing reservations about her sense of entitlement and lack of candor and extreme carelessness. "usa today" did allow trump's running mate mike pence to issue a rebuttal to that disendorsement in the paper. he called donald trump a bold leader, comparing him to ronald reagan who, pence said, also made some republicans uncomfortable initially with his unique style. donald trump is not letting go of the controversy over his comments about a former miss universe. he lashed out on twitter overnight to attack alicia machado and her support of hillary clinton. trump has been outspoken about the beauty queen's weight. major garrett is here with the trump's latest attacks. major, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. early this morning, about 5:15 a.m. precisely, donald trump fired off a trio of tweets personally attacking former miss universe alicia machado.

using her as, quote, a paragon of virtue shows bad judgment and trump urges his some 12 million twitter followers to look into a sex tape and ask, did crooked hillary help disgusting alicia m become a u.s. citizen so she could use her in the debate? this, of course, all began when hillary clinton brought up trump's own words about machado at the first presidential debate and reminding he referred to machado as, quote, miss piggy. as owner of the miss universe competition, trump sougha weight loss campaign for machado. she was implicated in a 1997 murder case in venezuela and accused of threatening a judge, but never charged on either county. this episode, once again, underscores there is only really one person running the trump campaign, donald trump. but those around him are trying to rein him in and bringing in new jersey governor chris christie to try to help trump

giving him attack lines because trump respects the way christie took down marco rubio before the new hampshire primary and his advisers hope trump can do the same thing in preparation for round two. >> what kind of a difference will it make? everybody says chris christie is a very good debater. >> he is but it's all about the focus that donald trump brings to the task and he didn't bring a requisite focus the first time around' those who wish he would. it's entirely up to him and whether he believes the lost the first debate, which i'm still co does, does he need to change his methods? until trump changes himself, those around him only struggle with the topic. >> we did learn today he likes to get up early and likes to tweet. >> early morning tweeting, no doubt about that. >> at 5:15 precisely, you say. got it. world leaders said good-bye to israeli former president and prime minister shimon peres.

he also said peres' dream of peace in the middle east is not over. holly williams is in jerusalem at the funeral. >> reporter: good morning. shimon peres was a giant of israeli politics. a man who made israel stronger by building up its military, but also a tireless peace maker. they came to jerusalem from all over the world. presidents and prime ministers to pay their final respects to a man who tried to bring peace to his people and to the middle east. >> shimon accomplished enough things in his life for a thousand men. he understood it is better to live to the very end of his time on earth with a longing not for the past, but for the dreams that have not yet come true. >> reporter: palestinian leader mahmoud abbas was also here today shaking hands with israeli's prime minister benjamin netanyahu. as israeli's foreign minister, shimon peres opened secret negotiations with the palestinians, which led

signed in 1993 on the white house lawn. the first agreement between israel and the palestinians aimed at ending their conflict. it won peres the nobel peace prize but didn't deliver lasting peace in the middle east. >> now he is gone. leaving only a blessed memory and a powerful example. that's more than enough. >> reporter: bill clinto friend. >> shimon was being interviewed by charlie rose and he looked at him sort of saying, i'm going to serve a softball up to you. and watch you hit a home run. what do you want your legacy to be? and he said, i'm more concerned about tomorrow than yesterday. >> reporter: shimon peres was

along with other israeli leaders. >> holly williams in israeli, thank you. a teenager accused of shooting three people at a south carolina elementary school is due in court this morning. the officials have not named the 14-year-old because of his age. a judge will decide if he can be freed on bail. he is also accused of killing his father at home before shooting two students and a teacher on wednesday at townville elementary school. jacob hall is still in critical condition and authorities are trying to determine a motive. >> hurricane matthew strengthened to a category 2 storm overnight and could be stronger today. it hammered puerto rico yesterday with heavy wind and rain and triggered floods and landslide. a teenager was killed in the nation of st. vincent. matthew is heading west across the caribbean and could turn north. the national weather service says it's too soon to determine

difficulties with installing it, the deadline was pushed back. investigators will try to determine if positive train control could have prevented the speeding new jersey transit train from smashing into the hoboken station. >> that is absolutely one area that we always look into for every rail accident. as you know, the ntsb has been recommending positive train control for 40 years. >> reporter: they remain on gps satellites and radio towers ground sensors. if it detects a train is going too fast or operating unsafely, on-board computers will kick in to slow it or stop it. in january, amtrak showed us how the technology works using this simulator. when it's beeping, you take over. >> if you don't brake action it will take over control of the train. >> reporter: nationwide it is

track miles. as of last may, commuter railroads have spent nearly a billion dollars installing the pricey technology. new jersey senator cory booker is frustrated by the slow progress. >> we don't need any more warnings and we don't need any more accidents. it's a matter of getting it done. >> reporter: back in 2011, also in hoboken also, at least 30 people were injured in an accident involving a p. train. two years later one derailed in the bronx killing four people and in may, 2015, eight died and more than 200 were hurt when this amtrak train derailed in philadelphia. investigators say p.t.c. would likely have prevented them all. the american public transportation association says commuter railroads are 100% dedicated to ptc but estimate it

has set aside to implement ptc. it's not expected to be in use at least 2018. gayle? >> maybe they will rethink that one. thank you, kris. the associated press investigates find confidential police databases have been used by some police officers to obtain information that has nothing to do with daily police work. the findings show some police run searches on romantic partners and business associates and journalists and family members. don dahler is here with the details. >> reporter: good morning. the databases give police instant access to a wide range of information, including a addresses, phonenumbers, criminal histories. and driving records, which is all critical information when used appropriately. but as the investigation uncovered, there are sometimes illegitimate searches that remain unchecked. after being harassed for nearly a year, 30-year-old alexus decany said she was violently attacked by her ex-boyfriend, a former sergeant with the akron, ohio, police, named eric paul.

unconscious. he made known in writing, via text message and social media that he was coming to kill me. >> reporter: using confidential police databases, she says paul had access to private information that made the stalking even more relentless. >> i tried changing my number several times. and he would just get this other app on his phone where he could call me from his phone, but it would come up different numbers. i would try to go hide and stay at friends' houses or my mom's and he would find me. four-year probationary sentence after pleading guilty to charges that was the unlawful use of a law enforcement database. a crime that can be difficult to track. >> it is often difficult to distinguish a questionable search from the millions of legitimate searches that law enforcement officers do every day. >> reporter: an investigation by the associated press found that between 2013 and 2015, law enforcement officers and employees were fired, suspended,

for the misuse of police databases. they received lesser punishments over 250 times. chuck gallop is a former police officer who was disciplined for database misuse. he says officers were encouraged to practice searching on innocent subjects. >> i have spoken to officers who went through that training at the time and they were told pull out your high school yearbook and start running people and get it's new in this and use it. >> reporter: no single agency monitors the use of databases but in the case of alexus decany, it's often when a crime has been committed that such incidents are revealed. >> there needs to be some sort of checks and balances, some sort of way to hold these officers that have complete discretion accountable for this information they have at their fingertips. >> reporter: because eric paul accepted a plea deal, he could be released before his four-year sentence is up. as for alexus, she started a go fund me page to pay for relocation should her former

a popular and for some of us, terrifying tourist spot in china reopened this morning. this glass bridge was closed earlier this month for safety upgrades after tourists flooded its span. it's nearly a thousand feet above a gorge and is considered the world's highest and longest glass bridge. adriana diaz spoke with tourists who dared to take the view below. >> good morning!

both at the same time! for the 8,000 people who paid to come each day, it's a view they will likely never forget. it's got everyone acting like they are kids again. china's newest tourist attraction is a selfie dream come true. that is if you can handle it. it's okay, it's okay. the grand central china is now the world's highest and longest, stretching more than 1,400 feet. turning stomachs. i'm trying to rationalize with this and tell my brain it's safe. just doesn't feel right. and leaving visitors amazed. are you scared? no, i think it's great, said this man. >> i feel a little scared that, you know, i'm strong enough.

>> reporter: this scenery inspired the floating mountains in the blockbuster "avatar." the bridge could have been an inspiration for hitchcock's vertigo. for protect the glass booties are required and high heels are banned and tickets are limited. after opening in august, the bridge closed for a month because of overcapacity. last year, a different glass walkway in china shut after a panel shattered. >> once you get used to it, it's not that scary. >> reportehe manager joe chen says they are not taking any chances. >> there are three layers of the glass panels and each layer can actually withstand more than 40 tons. >> reporter: to prove it, this summer, officials had visitors try to smash the glass with a sledge hammer and ride a car over it just to "drive" home the point. but chen says the bridge is more than just a tourists attraction. it symbolizes an ascending

like all blood thinners, don't stop taking xarelto without talking to your doctor, as this may increase your risk of a blood clot or stroke. while taking you may bruise more easily, and it may take longer for bleeding to stop. xarelto may increase your risk of bleeding if you take certain medicines. xarelto can cause serious, and in rare cases fatal bleeding. get help right away for unexpected bleeding, unusual bruising or tingling. if you have had spinal anesthesia while on xarelto watch for back pain or any nerve or muscle related signs or symptoms. do not take xarelto if you have an artificial heart valve tell your doctor before all planned medical or dental procedures. before starting xarelto tell your doctor about any conditions, such as kidney, liver or bleeding problems. to help protect yourself from a stroke, ask your doctor about xarelto. there's more to know.

? good morning to our viewers in the west. it is friday, september 30th, 2016. welcome back to "cbs this morning." there's more real news ahead, including the hard hitting presidential race. donald trump launches a new attack this morning targeting a first, here is today's eye opener at 8:00. >> investigators won't be able to fully inspect the damage until contractors remove a portion of the damaged roof. >> despite the unsteady ceiling above them and the potential for live wires below them, many people sprung into action. >> it is not new, it is a government mandate, all railroads have it installed by the end of last year but the deadline was pushed back. >> the campaign is hoping to use the organizational edge to get

>> what kind of difference do you think it will make, everybody said chris christie say good debater. >> he is. but it is about the focus that donald trump brings to the task. >> shimon peres was laid to rest here in jerusalem. >> instant access to a wide range of information, but as the investigation uncovered, there are sometimes illegitimate searches that remain unchecked. >> breathtaking and terrifying at the same time. >> i don't want to do anything th i terrifying at the same time. >> america online founder steve case endorsed hillary clinton for president today. though the last thing hillary wants to hear is -- >> you've got mail. >> oh, no. oh, no. get rid of it. get rid of it. i'm gayle king with norah o'donnell and anthony mason. charlie is on assignment. investigators are looking

that killed one and injured more than 100 people. it derailed in hoboken, across the river from lower manhattan. >> fabiola bittar de kroon was struck and killed by debris on the platform. she had just left her young daughter at day care. jim axelrod is at the scene with the latest on the investigation. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. we have a vantage point we want toha we're about eight stories up, just across from the hoboken terminal. you see the two trains, obviously not moving. imagine train 1614 just inside of that, barreling into the final 100, 130 yards of the hoboken terminal, all the way down until you can see where that sort of reddish brownish building is. that actually is where the track ends and the train jumped the barrier and into the platform area.

and just underneath that, that's where the train engines are. that's where the investigators will be focusing. couple of concerns they have, one is the structural integrity of the building, there was some water damage after the crash yesterday. have to be very careful moving in and around there. that's why the terminal is still empty right now. investigators also need that roof damage, they need to actually have that roof removed before they can get to parts of the train that they need to look at. there is a thought that the train was moving miles per hour, maybe even more as it moved in here. trains of course not to be -- shouldn't be going any faster than 10 miles an hour. next seven to ten days investigators will be here trying to figure it all out. anthony? >> jim. jim axelrod, thanks. donald trump walaunched a twitter attack against alicia machado. in one tweet, he urged his followers to look into a sex tape and wrote, quote, did

alicia m. become a u.s. citizen so she could use her in the debate. >> he called this woman miss piggy. then he called her miss housekeeping because she was latina. donald, she has a name. >> where did you find her? >> her name is alicia machado and she has become a u.s. citizen and you can bet she's going to vote this november. >> okay, good. >> machado says she was of cameras after she gained weight after winning trump's beauty putte beauty pageant. "usa today's" editorial board has taken a stand for the first time in its history. they said they could not support donald trump and don't want voters to either. it urged readers to resist the siren song of a dangerous demagogue.

saying, trump is in a league of his own when it comes to the quality and quantity of his misstatements. the paper did not endorse hillary clinton but said some board members have serious reservations about her entitlement, her lack of candor. peggy noonan is a columnist for "the wall street journal" and a cbs news contributor. good morning. i don't know how much newspaper, you know, editorials have an impact, but this is pretty strong in terms of this editorial. >> i think it was. i think it was -- i think you have to take seriously when a great newspaper breaks a roughly four decade tradition to take a stand on a presidential race. i don't know what kind of impact these things have. it was interesting that their

strong, and yet their reservations about mrs. clinton were so stated. >> what do you make of this early morning twitter barrage from donald trump, that started before 5:00 a.m. >> the first one was at 3:00 a.m. >> 3:00 a.m., right. against the character of alicia machado. does he have anything to gain from continuing this conversation? >> don't we all wake up in the morning and send enraged tweets? >> at 3:00 in the morning, 5:00 in the morning. the kind of story, look, if you just look at political strategy, you don't want to emphasize a story like this. you don't want to call people fat in america. it's not the best way to win votes. if he did that, keep walking. he shouldn't be relitigating this in a sort of enraged way at 3:00 or 5:00 a.m. i don't know why he is. i don't know who gave him his

get the phone out of his hands, bury it. let him not know where it is. give it to him at 7:03 a.m. >> he's not giving up his phone. where do you think the race is now, peggy, and what shouldtain? >> monday night, the debate, in my view hillary clinton won. she was happy. she's got the whoosh. she's out there on the campaign -- >> define the whoosh. >> the feeling of pleasure, happiness and this is going to work and i just crushed it. and you go into your next big event knowing you've got the whoosh and you're good. and the crowd sees it and they really react and then you know i've got the whoosh, it is really with me. it lasts for a while. she's taken the wood to trump right now, she's kind of beating him up as a rapacious businessman, doing what was done to mitt romney, the rich guys don't care about you. >> he says he won the debate too. but -- >> there you are.

help himself, he's going into junkyard dog mode. and he's having these arguments and sending sex tape stuff out. >> isn't it playing exactly into hillary clinton's hand? she set a giant trap, it was so obvious, and he stepped in it and now he keeps stepping in it. >> she knows what his weak spot is. he doesn't like it if you bring up things that he feels he can defend himself on, but ladies and gent, we got aboute weeks before the election. it is an epic election. this is a great nation with many troubles. they, both of them, should be talking about entitlement spending. they should be talking about war. >> thank you. >> they should be talking about where america should be strategically in the world and what they want for the next eight years, which is that they're asking us for. eight years of leadership. instead, she's doing rapacious businessman, he's doing look at

worthy of a great nation, i would say. sober up. we're voting very soon. >> you're blaming them both. >> i guess i am. >> you've also written and blamed in part the media for the discussion. >> yes. i have. i think things have gotten pretty shallow and pretty low. >> peggy, thank you. new developments in the investigation of the mysterious death of two two sisters were found unresponsive last week in their hotel room. we told you yesterday how 37-year-old annie and her 42-year-old sister robin were found dead last thursday in their villa. they showed no obvious signs of trauma. >> they were staying at a luxury resort on the island off africa's east coast. the sisters allegedly needed help to their room the previous night after drinking. police said a preliminary examination of their body shows

aggression. >> very mysterious. half the world's population could be nearsighted in just a few decades. we'll talk to a top eye doctor about what is behind theclouds now... and a light breeze in the palm trees. ....................... warmer temps today and to start october... then after the cold front sweeps through monday morning... a significant drop in temps - both daytime and overnight. .............. become our daytime highs by monday. ................... today we'll be reaching low 90s today and then a very windy weekend before a big cool down next week.

it's a real thing, as you said, by 2050, maybe half of the world will be myopic or nearsighted which is dramatic. it's rapidly rising in kids. and the theories have been several. one, genetics. if both of your parents are near-sighted a chance you will be too. a lot of concern kids spending too much time indoors and reading and iphones and that might be part of it. what is supported the most in the study they are not spending enough times outdoors getting enough sunlight and running around outside. >> what is the time recommended? >> likely anywhere from one to three hours outdoor activity per day is reasonable. >> beyond what they are getting? >> right. >> what is the physiology? >> a great question and interesting. a neurotransmitter called

the dopamine controls the elongation of the eyes. if you have dopamine, it doesn't grow as much but if you sit inside the longer the longer the eye the more nearsighted. >> they say if you spend so much time inside with the library you need glasses? >> if i got really great eyesight and at what point should i start to worr >> what is it like coming here? >> amazing. >> go for it. >> you have a great answer, doctor. >> i will try my best. the one fallacy people say i see well and i don't have an eye problem. that is unfortunate. there can be things going on inside the eye that are asymptomatic. glaucoma is one of them. if you're a young adult and you can't remember your last eye exam, it's probably time to see

over age 65 every one to two years for an eye exam and kids should be screened regularly at school. >> starting at what age? >> kids have a screening test early in school age and screened regularly at school and at the pediatric office and eye doctor as well. >> squinting is not good? >> that's a good sign you're op were waiting in line to get the tests and i sat down to read and all of my friends were laughing and giggling because i got all of them wrong. that's when i knew i needed glasses. >> you were probably squinting. >> thank you, doctor. >> thank you. a new way to hear this broadcast every single day. we are excited to announce the cbs podcast launches today and you will get the news of the day and extended interviews and
