hi, everyone, i'm kate snow. >> and i'm aaron gilchrest. "nbc news daily" starts right now. today, tuesday, january 31st, 2023. awaiting charges. any minute now prosecutors are set to file charges against alec baldwin in the "rust shooting." deadly response, a half moon bay shooting that killed seven people may have been prompted by a $100 repair bill. now the suspect is speaking in an exclusive ibt view. drying up, for the second time in six months, states that

need water from the colorado river failed to reach an agreement to share it. what that could mean for millions of people. and hollywood drama. why a best actress oscar nomination for a small film is drawing a ton of controversy. rvelgts. we begin with the latest out of new mexico. >> we expect a district attorney to file charges against alec baldwin and the armorer on the set of "rust." the two are accused of being involved in the shooting death of the cinematographer. >> time behind bars is a serious possibility for those involved. let's bring in our correspondents. what are we expecting to happen today? >> well, once the involuntary manslaughter charges are put against alec baldwin and hannah gutierrez-reid, the d.a. says we can expect the charging documents as well as the plea agreements to be released.

and those will have the facts and findings that led to these charges for the first time. we'll also get the plea agreement. he is the assistant director that law enforcement documents say told baldwin the gun was cold and that is safe before it went off killing cinematographer he had lana helena hutchison. >> so once the charges are made official and filed with the court, walk us through what happens next. >> i think the defense needs to be pro active. i think they reach out. they find an expert. and just in formally talking to folks and maybe you have too, i found that experts in the movie industry come down on each side of this. something baldwin is responsible for, others think no way he's not responsible. so that tells me that the defense should be able to secure an expert in the movie industry whether it is an armorer or stunt expert that will testify

that what alec baldwin did was proper. he didn't do anything negligent grossly negligent f that happens, then they have a battle of the experts. and battles of the experts in trials end up being coin flips. juries tend to go with whoever they like and whoever explains things better for them. >> how long is all this expected to take? do we know? >> i expect it will take some time. because i don't know that the defense will want to waive a speedy trial. they could. there is a constitutional requirement that prosecution bring the case to the trial within a particular period of time. but the defense may want to waive that in order to have more time to prepare. >> thank you both. memphis is preparing to say a final good-bye to tyre nichols. his funeral is held tomorrow morning. we learned that george floyd's brother and breonna taylor's mother will both ab tending. the preparations come as we learned seven officers have now either been relieved of duty or fired in connection to the traffic stop that led to nichols' death.

three emergency medical workers are also fired. our reporter is our reporter from memphis. you've been talking to people across the city there in the time that you've been there. what are they saying about the impact that tyre nichols' death had on the community? >> yeah, he really lived in memphis all that long in the scheme of life. he had been here about two years. he lived in sacramento before here. one thing that is interesting going to some of the vigils and talking to people in the community is how many people feel like even if they didn't know him before this, they know him now. and he's an integral part of this community and their lives. we were at a state shop yesterday evening and talking to the people who work at this state park. it's a shop and park inside. he left the state. he said since this happened, they had people coming in looking at skateboards for their children because they're interested in skateboarding because they heard that tyre nichols liked it. this is a man with a huge impact

on this community and as this community prepares to lay him to rest, to celebrate his life on wednesday, they are also hoping that people don't forget why everyone knows his name right now. and they hope that it leads to change. let's listen to what we heard. >> yeah. it's because of what the country is saying the other night. but that was there something that brought this down? >> i'm afraid. the you know, i don't know if i want to pull over or keep going or what. i don't want to have wrong intentions on my behalf. right now i'm terrified. >> there is a mix of emotion here right now. there are people dealing with the reality of what they feel like is a situation where there are so many systemic issues in policing they don't feel safe moving about anywhere then community. at the same time, they're trying to celebrate who this man was and that his death leads to some

bigger change for them and their children. >> i want to ask about the three medical responders that we learned were fired. what were their roles in all of this? >> so now our understanding is that one of them who had a basic level of emt training, the lieutenant stayed in the fire apparatus when they got to the scene where tyre nichols was. the other two emts went out but didn't conduct a full assessment on their own. instead, they relied on information they had from the officers at the scene. and the initial phone call saying the person was pep -- pepper sprayed. there was 15-minute period where he didn't receive adequate medical attention. intensifying ice storm is cancelling flights making roadways extremely dangerous from new mexico up through west virginia. >> texas has been among the hardest hit states so far. say a look at this road in the dallas-ft. worth area. drivers just could not control

their cars there. first responders in that state report more than 100 crashes since the system moved in. nbc news meteorologist bill karins is tracking temperatures. let's begin with our reporter in memphis, tennessee. what are the conditions like out there? >> aaron, i don't know if you can see it. we have sleet coming down. it is sleeting here in nnessee. we heard about this in dallas first. we had some freezing rain and some of the sleet which creates the dangerous conditions. now here in memphis, the alert was that we have about a quarter inch of ice. i'm going to show you. this is what that looks like. this is a branch from one of the trees. everything is completely frozen. you can see back here. everything is frozen. this leaf falls on the surface. and this is -- this feels like an ice skating rink. you can slide right off of that. on the sidewalks, they're like this. this is what we've been seeing a lot of the roads are dangerous.

here's nbc news' senior correspondent with more. stretching from the rocky mountains to the gulf of california, the colorado river gives fresh watter to people across seven states. but drought, climate change and a growing population has sh rufrpg the river's water flow to the lowest levels ever. the deadline today for states that rely on the river to figure out how to share that limited water supply. if they don't, the federal government will step in to do it for them. this all started back in 1922. the colorado river compact was signed. dividing the river's water use by something called acre feet. what is that? it's how much water you need to cover an acre of land in a foot of water. the upper basin states, colorado, new mexico, utah, wyoming, were supposed to share something like 7 1/2 million of the acre feet of water every year. and the lower basin states, california, nevada, arizona, alotted about 8 1/2 million per year. mexico, where the river meets the sea, got 1.5 million.

okay, fine. a lot of numbers. here's what you need to know. the math worked as long as the river provided about 17 million acre feet a year. but that number has been going down. and fast. in the last three years, the river's water levels are so low that those original locations are impossible. the states affect ready trying to figure out what the new map should be themselves but so far no luck. everybody's got a reason too. the upper basin states say they cut half the alotment. nevada cut by a third. arizona which receives the least amount of water from the river says more people and agreements with native-american tribes prevent them from making any cuts at all. and california which gets the most amount of water from the river points to its big agricultural industry as one reason why they can't cut back either. without a simple solution and with a water crisis growing, the federal government now set to step in and force these states to cut back quite a bit.

>> yesterday six of the seven states gave the federal government a last minute proposal outlining possible water cuts. water officials say the plan is not an official agreement but a framework. california uses the largest share of the river was not included in that proposal. nearly two years after the attack on the u.s. capitol, a final report was released by the house committee created to investigate the events of january 6. now a team of former federal agents and prosecutors are suggesting that there are major findings that were left out of that financial report. we have more on this nbc news exclusive. the team spent a year investigating the response of various government agos to january 6. talk about what stood out to you. what were the most surprising findings? >> it actually wasn't terribly surprising aaron. private searchers and law makesers have come to the same conclusion. but it's significant that the

most comprehensive investigation into the january 6 attack found that while donald trump was the proximate cause of the riot by giving that speech and urging people to go to the capitol, law enforcement bears some share of the blame because according to this analysis, law enforcement failed to act on reams of available intelligence warning that people were coming to the capitol to do violence. and, therefore, there wasn't a secure perimeter. the capitol was not protected and overrun by a mob. >> so we have the group of people, the investigators who were agents and prosecutors at some point in their careers. why did they think the findings were omitted from the final report? >> we're told by people familiar with the committee's work is that the key lawmakers on the committee including liz cheney and the chairman bennie thompson did not want to detract from the focus on donald trump. they wanted to send a message that was apparent in all the hearings and in the final report that donald trump caused this. and they felt that in order to

focus on law enforcement intelligence mishaps and failures, it would give trump's defenders a talking point, a way to say it wasn't all his fault. the people that spent the year of their lives looking into this are not saying what that conclusion s they feel their findings deserve a chance tore aired, aaron. >> ken, thank you. you can see more of ken's reporting to night on nbc "nightly news." after weeks of defiance, george santos is making his first concession since it was revealed he lied about portions of his background announcing to day he is step ago way from committee roles in the house, quote, until i am cleared. it comes as a new poll shows the majority of voters in his district want him to resign. nbc news capitol hill correspondent joins me now. this is the first concession he made to this point. why not? >> that's right. it appears as though george santos does not want to be a

distraction. at least that's what he said in a statement today. he did make it clear when pressed by reporters to day that he has no plans to step away from his position in congress. >> you hear him saying no he is not planning on resigning. in fact, said in that statement he expects to be cleared. this is not him resigning from the committees. he is just stepping back while the investigations into him continue. he hopes that once all these investigations run their course that he'll be able to be full participant as a member of congress. kate? >> and last night santos met with house speaker kevin mccarthy, fellow republican. does that meeting, did the speaker play any role in this decision today? >> yeah. i don't think there is any doubt that kevin mccarthy played a big role in all of. this you know, santos made it clear he was making this decision on his own. he was voluntarily recusing

himself if the positions. but we're told that kevin mccarthy did suggest this as an option for santos. and, you know, this is a way for kevin mccarthy to have it both ways. show that he is taking some level of action against santos with all these investigations that are swirling around him. but it does still allow kevin mccarthy to have santos' vote on the floor of the house of representatives. he'll still get that vote. and that's important because republicans only enjoy a four seat majority right now in the congress. so mccarthy needs every single vote he can get. santos has proven himself to be very loyal to mccarthy throughout this entire process. so it's not a surprise that when mccarthy made this suggestion that santos agreed to take this step. of course, it could take some time for all these investigations to run their course. there is an ethics committee investigation here in washington. will investigations at the state and federal level back in his district in long island. before all those get resolved though, santos will remain a

member of congress and still be able to vote on the floor. >> thank you. coming up, why there's hollywood drama over one of this year's oscar nominees. you're watching "nbc news daily."

with reliable covid-19 results in just 15 minutes,

everyone is making room for binaxnow in their medicine cabinet. do we still need these pregnancy tests? (kids yell and giggle, a dog barks and a vase breaks) yeah, no. out with the old, in with the #1 covid-19 self test in the us. with the same technology doctors use to test for covid-19. binaxnow a low budget indy film is kicking up controversy ahead of the academy awards. >> it is called "to leslie." it flew under the radar but the

star is running for best actress. at the center of an investigation. nbc news now anchor is here to break it down. there is a lot of drama today. >> they're meeting to day. one item on the agenda is reviewing campaign procedures oren this nominees and exploring if the guidelines need to change in this era of social media. now the academy did not name any one specifically but this controversy seems to center around one of the nominees. >> tell me i'm good. >> an academy investigation is under way after this surprising oscar nomination. gasp ps could be heard after andrea riseboro nominate the for her performance in "to leslie," a drama about an alcoholic woman that wins the lottery. but little known indy movie is only grossed about $27,000 at

the box office. in the film and riseboro failed to get nominated for most other major awards including the golden globes. >> is that your best effort? i'm not going nowhere. >> right before oscars voting, a star studded word of mouth campaign began to surface with a listers all promoting riseboro's performance. some even used the same language in their posts. almost all of them calling to leslie, a, quote, small film with a giant heart." even the best actress front-runner mentioned her during one of her recent acceptance speeches. >> it is extremely arbitrary considering how many performances there have been by women not only in this room but, you know, andrea wiseboro and couple way. >> they wouldn't have done this if they didn't like the

performance. i don't want to take anything away from that. but to say this is organic and grew out of nothing is misunderstanding how oscar campaigns work. >> at issue dshgs the social media campaign violate the academy's rules against lobbying for votes? in a statement the academy's board of governors announced it is meeting it us to review, quote, campaign procedures around this year's nominees to ensure that no guidelines were violated and to inform us whether changes to the guidelines may be needed in a new era of social media and digital communication. the rules are the rules. the way the rules are written right now is you're not allowed to lobby people or disparage other campaigns. >> adding to the nomination's blowback, two black actresses who were heavily favored to score best actress nods were left out. the woman king's viola davis -- >> some things are worth fighting for. >> and hill's daniel deadwhile. >> this was my boy. >> herself even expressed shock

telling deadline after the nominations, i'm not entirely sure how this happened. >> never speak to me again. >> it is rare for the academy to recind a nomination. in 95 years, it only happened nine times. >> i don't think that she will lose her nomination. and the most important thing is they will probably put a rule in place giving better guidance for what is okay and not okay on social media and to make outreach to people in the community during voting. >> we reached out to riseboro and her managers for comment but did not hear back. >> we saw cate blanchett in the piece making name. are there any others speaking out? >> recently a comedian came to her defense. kristina richy in a comment captured by deadline. she says this academy review was elitist. one director argued that getting this nomination through a grassroots type of campaign was

fair and touching. i don't think they're going to take away the nomination. i think that will get a big backlash. it is an interesting conversation especially in this new era. >> yeah. >> work on the rules for next time. >> exactly. >> thank you so much. there is more news ahead. >> you're watching "nbc news daily." ♪ ♪ [ cat purrs ] [ phone vibrates ] introducing astepro allergy. steroid-free allergy relief that starts working in 30 minutes, while other allergy sprays take hours. now with astepro fast allergy relief, [ spray, spray ] you can astepro and go. ubrelvy helps u fight migraine attacks. u rise to the challenge. u won't clock out. so u bring ubrelvy. it can quickly stop migraine in its tracks within 2 hours... ...without worrying if it's too late or where you are. unlike older medicines, ubrelvy is a pill that directly blocks a protein believed to be a cause of migraine. do not take with strong cyp3a4 inhibitors. most common side effects were nausea and tiredness. migraine pain relief starts with u. learn how abbvie could help you save. ask about ubrelvy, the anytime, anywhere migraine medicine.
