the priest cannot be prosecuted because of the statute of limitations. lynch was acquitted of the attack. he told the "mercury news" he does not believe 18 statute of limitations for victims of abuse. now wishing to put the issue to voters. the governor wrote statutes of limitation are tight tool preserve the fairness because over time evidence could be lost, memories can fade. under current law victim who is turn 26 before 2003 are unable to file lawsuits against private employers, governor brown also said that bill failed to hold the public entities equally accountable. >> an investigative unit, a nation wide problem, prescription drug abuse. our unit found that more die from painkillers and heroin and cocaine combined. right here in california there is a new approach to curb the

would give part one more day, 24 more hours to try and reach a deal. also a group of state lawmakers stepped in and said that they asked b.a.r.t. workers not to walk off the job but also asked b.a.r.t. to withdraw its last best and final offer presented and keep on talking. as i mentioned the talks ended for 3:00 in the morning here and b.a.r.t.'s gm stood firm giving the unions two weeks to decide whether to take it or leave it. earlier b.a.r.t.'s chief negotiator said they were make some progress, this offer was presented about 4:00 p.m. but he says that they waited and b.a.r.t. got no response and said he's frustrated by that. this is similar to what was said last week when the unions said they wanted more time to look at the offer. early optimism quickly started to fade. >> if the district rescinds its last best and final offer, and continues to negotiate with us in good faith, then we will be

optimistic. but at the moment we're not optimistic. we would advise the riding public to take precautions and make sure they have alternative transportation. >> i really hope that they are going to take it seriously and look at it. we're open to ideas over the two weeks they might have. we'll try and keep the conversation open but it's trying to bring this to a close t the bay area of tired of going to bed at night not knowing sbart going to be open or not. >> reporter: the union of course says there are concessions, according to b.a.r.t. 3% more near, 4% going to pension and 9.5% to medical contributions. we'll keep an eye on things for you but again, b.a.r.t. trains rolling but the new deadline means the trains may not be rolling tomorrow.

in each other's agenda and not the riding public. >> i'm hoping that they get it together and get done. it's kind of hard on people when -- i don't think they are thinking about about everyday people. >> again t the trains are rolling this morning but tomorrow could be another story. we'll take you back out live. you'll see the workers here that from the transportation agency, they are passing out pamphlets to commuters giving them options in case there is a strike tomorrow. they are telling them about the ferry, bicycling, carpools. again, people are certainly gearing up for a possible strike tomorrow afs right now we just don't know. riders want this to come to an end. they say they are just fed up. reporting live, jodi hernandez.

hill now with the latest. any breaks, any sign of a breakthrough? >> reporter: therl morning we heard senator bob corker say he hopes that they will have something by the end of the day today. that doesn't mean the government will reopen or will lift the debt ceiling that quickly but the beginnings of a compromise. frustration is mounting and we saw it spill over in washington at the world war ii memorial. conservatives and veterans took the barricades, dumped them in front of the white house. it caused a confrontation with officials. how frustrated people have become. today the house and the senate are both back in later this afternoon but before that the six democrats and republicans in the senate are now the pivotal focus of what if any compromise may come out of congress to get the government working and prevent an historic default.

>> the clock is ticking. thanks. >> an interesting day on wall street as well. from the shutdown to the big weigh-in the best along the west coast. massive gourds for the bay area's pumpkin weigh-off. >> bob is in half moon bay sizing up the competition. i know you don't know this but any sign of a potential record? >> reporter: actually, yes, there is. this will be coming off this weekend when there was a record world record set in morgan hill by this guy, tim mathison. good morning. congratulations. your pumpkin, a different one, set a record at what? >> the heaviest pumpkin. >> what was the weight. >> 2 twour,032 pounds. >> what do you estimate this? >> i'm estimating around 1900. i'm not sure. ilike it to go -- you know who

knows. >> could this be the next -- you think? >> if it goes 12% heavy like i did a few weeks ago in elk grove it will beat my own world record. >> this is interesting because you've got a $16,000 prize on top of the weight prize for morgan hill if you hold the world record until november 1. if you break your own you -- if that gets broken you lose the 16,000. if you're the one who breaks it you make up for. >> yes. $30,000 prize money. >> if someone else breaks it. >> 16,000. >> you got a lot riding on today. >> it's is not much the money, it's bragging rights. our napa club, we have a great club and it's bragging rights. >> what is your trick? >> you know, we think about it a lot. weather, genetics with our seed, soil. and a lot of devotion.
