>> no kidding. and are we taking a live look at leport? >> we're leaving you with the opening bell. good morning to our viewers in the west. it is friday, may 18th, 2012. welcome to studio 57 at the cbs broadcast center. i'm charlie rose. newly released evidence in the trayvon martin case brings some answers and some new questions. we'll speak with the lawyer for george zimmerman, the man who shot martin, and california governor jerry brown talks about taking on his state's $16 billion budget cries nsis in an interview you'll only see on "cbs this morning." facebook goes public this morning. what does the company do now to keep the investors happy. when i see you at 8:00, sacha baron cohen stops by studio 57. >> millions of tons of tsunami debris headed this way.

is america ready for it? plus, we remember the queen of disco, donna summer. >> we begin with a look at today's eye opener. your world in 90 seconds. >> newly release video shows martin at a sanford, florida, 7-eleven buying skittles and iced tea police later found on his body. >> the guy on top in the black hoodie was throwing down blows on the guy. >> a photo showing zimmerman with a bloody nose and head on the night of the flight. >> he confronted him and he shot and killed trayvon martin. >> facebook founder mark zuckerberg could become the second richest man in the country. >> the stock, $38 for a single share. biggest ipo in this country's history. >> lawmakers in washington are eyeing a recent status update by one of facebook's co-founders. >> they say he's given up his citizenship to avoid paying

taxes. >> he wants to defriend the united states of america. >> police have arrested a suspect in the series of deadly shootings that terrorized drivers across mississippi. >> police are still trying to unravel what triggered two outbreaks of gunfire that sent people running for cover in louisville, kentucky. >> quite the scene at coors field as a swarm of beans temporarily halted the rockies game. >> all of that -- >> that would have been quite something. >> you know jay is watching right now. he's watching every second. >> i'm too big for this show. >> let me tell you, that cat doesn't worry about anything than being too good looking. >> disco was king and donna summer was its queen. ♪

>> all of that and more on "cbs this morning." captioning funded by cbs welcome to "cbs this morning." a special prosecutor has taken the evidence against the man accused of murdering trayvon martin and making it public. >> it includes nearly 200 pages of documents, photos, and audio record. mark strassmann has gone through it all. he has gone through the courthouse in sanford, florida. good morning. >> reporter: good morning, erica and charlie, and good morning to everyone across the west. the case has been so divisive from the start and the evidence file has something for everyone. it confirmed some details and revealed others leading up to the murky seconds before that final gunshot. in the surveillance video, trayvon martin has 20 minutes to

live. he left the convenience store with skittles and iced tea. >> there's a black guy down that looks like she's been shot and he's dead. >> reporter: in this evidence file, details of the fatal fight are in public view. lying on the ground, martin's cell phone. paramedics found him lying on his stomach. the can of iced tea still cold in his sweatshirt pocket. they flipped over his body to perform cpr unsuccessfully for five minutes. >> they are doing mouth to mask. put him on the heart monitor. it showed no activity. >> reporter: the autopsy showed he was shot through the heart. gunpowder burns around his chest wound suggest that zimmerman shot him from no more than 18 inches away. the gunshot's trajectory was

horizontal. diagrams note that martin was hurt in the fight. no eyewitness saw the shot but unidentified one the file calls witness six says he saw martin beating on zimmerman. >> and then the one guy on top in the black hoodie was pretty much just throwing down blows on the guy kind of mma style. >> reporter: officers say three times zimmerman refused to go to the hospital. an early sanford police report maintains the confrontation was ultimately avoidable by zimmerman. if zimmerman had remained in his vehicle and awaited the arrival of law enforcement. >> he could have drove away. he profiled trayvon martin. he pursued him. he confronted him. and he shot and killed trayvon martin. >> reporter: there is no one uh-huh moment in the file. impossible to identify with certainty, confusing, up for

debate and remember the special prosecutor held back about 10% of this case because she thought the information was too sensitive for the public to know. >> mark, thank you. also in sanford is george zimmerman's attorney mark o'm a o'mara. good morning. >> good morning. >> the police have said that this incident was ultimately avoidable. do you agree with that? >> very hard to say right now. we only have partial discovery out. they are entitled to their opinion. we need to look at what all of the evidence says in one full picture. >> does it change your case? >> some of it is out. it helps focus me and my team. once we get the rest of the evidence we can wade through that and get discovery and depositions done and plan on what pretrial motions may be appropriate. >> how would you characterize what this evidence means to your argument and to your case? >> it is sort of important that not only my team but everybody wait until all of the evidence

is out. looking at it piece meal has caused problems in the past with the case. i rather not comment on partial evidence. deal with it all once we have it in a courtroom. >> there is this question that has been since the beginning of the 911 call and who was calling for help. part of the evidence released, trayvon martin's father in the report says he doesn't believe it's the voice of his son. >> i understand that to be part of the evidence. it's going to have to be a lot of forensic workup done to see if we can throw light on that issue. i know that's an issue for a lot of people to consider. >> what would you say about it? i mean this in a general sense, the mental state of your client at this time? >> he's anxious to get the process moving. frustrated by the fact that he's basically living in hiding. his spirits are good. >> what's the biggest challenge for you in representing george zimmerman? >> doing it properly in a courtroom. there has been a groundswell of emotions on this case.

some for mr. zimmerman and some against him. all of those opinions are incomplete or partial because i don't even know all of the evidence. my greatest concern is this case seemingly has already been tried in the media and public with completely incomplete information and i'm worried that people will have their minds made up and that they will react with incomplete information. >> mark o'mara, thank you. >> sure thing. biggest day ever atbo facebook. about half an hour ago, mark zuckerberg rang the nasdaq opening bell. at $38 a share, the social media giant is raising $16 billion in its initial public offering. in menlo park, california, they have been up in anticipation all morning.

>> reporter: good morning across the west. here at facebook's silicon valley headquarters, this is a dawn of a day of riches. facebook ceo stands to become a billionaire several times over today and many early employees of the company will become multimillionaires. but just to prove that they are still in touch with their computer hacker roots, a large group of facebook employees spent all night here taking part in what they call a hack-a-thon. facebook set up a huge stage for a company tradition. an overnight computer engineering session. the message perhaps is that a company valued at more than $100 billion can't rest. facebook workers have their work cut out says cnet's paul sloan. >> challenge is not to get more users but find ways to get money off the many users they already have. >> reporter: facebook had revenue just over $1 billion in the first three months of 2012. 80% of its profits come from ads

aimed at more than 900 million users. what does facebook know about those 900 million people? >> what does it not know? it's a goal mine. they haven't figured out how to change it into a cash machine. >> reporter: stock offering is more than a huge cash machine for facebook's early investors and employees. at the madera restaurant near menlo park, the restaurant fills up and the parking lot with expensive cars. the wealthy here aren't shy about spending says michael casey. >> to the degree that ipos can be a rising tied for many industries, we've benefited from that. >> reporter: the facebook wealthy will join plenty of others with money here. banks of the success of google and apple. it can all raise questions about a tech bubble. >> facebook is making money. facebook has a huge audience. it's been around eight years. this is not some fly by night

operation. >> reporter: for a young company, facebook is already incredibly popular but anticipation over future profits that will drive strock trading today and whether or not an up or down day on the overall stock market it will be an historic day for facebook. republicans dug in their heels again over increasing the federal debt ceiling. many states across the nation have their own serious debt problem. >> california faces one of the worst. a $16 billion budget deficit. this week california's governor unfailed his plan to deal with it using a combination of spending cuts and tax hikes. california governor jerry brown is with us from sacramento. good morning, governor. >> good morning. >> when you look at california and you look at the ninth biggest economy but you also look at a state that mirrors problems not only around this country but around the world. people who want to cut spending but do not want to raise taxes. people who want to raise taxes

but are restricted in whose spending they want to cut. what can the governor of california do? >> unlike the federal government, the state of california has the initiative process. and while last year i tried to get the legislature where they required two-thirds vote to let people vote on new taxes, i couldn't get that. i went to the people myself. i got over 1.5 million signatures so on the november ballot will be a proposal to raise income taxes on the very affluent and a slight quarter cent tax on everybody else. combined with that, we're making some very drastic cuts in almost every area of state government. so we are going to start living within our means, something that hasn't truly happened for the better part of 30 years. >> suppose they don't vote for this? what do you do then? >> this will be built into my

budget that i hope to be able to sign by the end of june and that will be something called trigger cuts. so the people will either vote to bring in somewhere between 8 billion to 10 billion in new taxes principally from the most affluent people or they'll vote no and that will automatically impose some pretty drastic cuts because one way or the other, we got to balance our budget. >> so to understand you, if they don't vote for the tax hike, there will be automatic cuts that will be deep. austerity budget that no one has seen in california in a while. >> that's exactly right. the reason we have to have trigger cuts is that we have to have a budget that is truly balanced. that's just the way it's got to be. the people do get to make a choice. i'm going to campaign hard for the yes vote. one way or another, we are putting our books in balance. >> you predicted early in january that the budget deficit

would be only $9 billion. what happened? >> very simple. we're not fortune tellers. the economy didn't generate about 3 billion i thought it would. in addition to that, we got federal courts who blocked billions in cuts that i'm proposing and then we have the national administration that has not yet given us waivers on medicaid cuts that i proposed. >> you're relying on people giving you more tax revenue and you are relying on them giving you more tax revenue because of the fear of the automatic cuts which will go right to the bone. government is a nurse, teacher, highway patrolman, someone working in a mental hospital, when we cut, that's where we cut. that's why you are in terms of philosophy of the moment. >> where we are is you have to live within your means. it's a day of reckoning. government does a lot of good things. when it does more good things than it has money to pay for them, it becomes a bad.

we're going to have to cut some good in order to avoid some bad. and that's called putting our fiscal house in order. it's not easy. last several governors have faced difficulty in achieving that. i feel at this stage of my life, this is what i've been called upon to do and god willing i'm going to do it. >> what's the argument you make to the people who believe that you were a governor that would not be cutting not only what they expected to cut in terms of what government does but also cutting the ability of california to be competitive in the future. >> if you don't have it, there's an old latin phrase, no man gives what he does not have. california doesn't have the money that people who expect it to spend. so this is a matter of just putting both sides of the equation in balance. that's what it is. if you live in unbalanced life,

you pay. i don't think people ultimately when they understand the facts want imbalance. they like sustainability over time. that's what i'm bringing. >> you have put everything on this ballot. >> they say no, we'll have more cuts. say yes, fewer cuts. either way, california is growing. this is not europe. we're not the european society with its regimes and economy and social structure. we're entrepreneurial and innovative and people are still coming here. they invented facebook here. not in texas, not in arizona, not in manhattan and certainly not under the white house or the congress. this is still the wild west and we're going to prove to the rest of this country and the world that we know how to do it. >> facebook was invented in cambridge, massachusetts.

>> well, this is where they are. they might be do a bit in laboratory but they learned fast to get on a plane to california where all of the other innovative people are and that environment and that laboratory is creativity and then you get stuff done. >> they do live in silicon valley now. that's for sure. let's assume this fails and the people say governor brown, we listened to you, sorry, we don't think raising taxes and cutting is the way to go. we believe it's only cutting which is what you told us. how will that be different than what republicans want to do now? >> that would be a more republican idea. we're a democracy. i made a proposal. there's more than one way to skin a cat. many roads to calcutta. we'll take whatever one will get us there. >> that's the jerry brown attitude. there is also this. suppose a voter comes up to you

and says, listen, governor brown, i hear you loud and clear. you have a project that's near and dear to you which is $100 billion high speed railroad. why not make a decision to not commit to that project because that's the kind of spending california cannot afford. >> well, you can say the same about fixing our roads and expanding our airports and ports and you got to build to accommodate the growth. the high-speed rail over the next 40 years, won't be 100, we can bring it in for a lot less than that. that will be half of the price of building new and expand airports and new and expanded freeways. >> they would say is it more important to invest in high-speed railroad or education. you say we have to cut education. why not cut your railroad. these are hard choice that have to be made. >> i'll also propose a $14 billion water project to make sure we have a reliable water

supply. we're also investing tens of billions of dollars by the private utilities in moving to renewable sources of electricity. california is not stopping. we're not some tired country in europe. we're a buoyant society that will discipline itself on a daily basis but on the long-term it will plant the seeds of growth. >> how big a bet is this for you? >> how big a bet? >> yes. in other words, your future and your reputation is on getting this bill passed? >> i don't have that much of a future. i got more of a past than a future. i'm not betting anything. i am coming to work every day. i am enjoying the hell out of it. i'm going to do the best i can. whatever way the people go, i'm going with them. >> thank you for this opportunity to talk with you. thanks. >> governor jerry brown,,,,

>> reporter: from a harley davidson motorcycle to barrels of chemicals, tsunami debris is already washing ashore on the west coast. in march, the u.s. coast guard had to sink a 160-foot fishing vessel that had floated all of the way from japan. >> many people said we wouldn't see any of this impact until 2013 or 2014. >> what we're hearing is it's here. how do we deal with it? >> reporter: at a hearing thursday, senators from western states grilled a top u.s. environmental official. they want eed to know how his agency is going to deal with the field of trash headed this way quicker than expected. >> we do not have the funds to mount a cleanup especially in areas as remote as alaska. >> david kennedy is with noaa, the national oceanic and atmospheric administration. he says it's not clear whether all 1.5 million tons of debris

will make it across the pacific. >> how much of that is going to be floating and available to come ashore? we don't have a clue. >> reporter: another thing no one seems to know is how the debris field will affect marine life. fishing is a multibillion dollar industry in the pacific northwest. >> what you're most worried about is that it will affect your economy. >> reporter: senator maria cantwell of washington state wants to know who is going to coordinate the cleanup of potentially hazardous trash. >> we want to plan to see exactly how they're going to deal with it. >> reporter: it won't be cheap. the cost to remove one small sail boat that washed up was $1.2 million. nancy cordes, washington. good morning. >> good morning. >> how bad is this? some way it's worse than exxon

valdez. >> the people are saying that are really talking about the geographic extent of it and tonnage of it. oil floats so it's not that hard to imagine this 1.5 million tons of debris is really heavier than that. is it a serious issue? it's a serious issue. exxon was concentrated in a small area. impacts of exxon in that small area were very much greater. >> the danger comes from toxicity and not from radioactivity, correct? >> that's right. the shipping boat that was just sunk, scientists got on that boat. they looked at radioactivity and it was background level. it was normal. i'm not particularly worried about radioactivity but toxicity is a real issue. >> what specifically are you worried about in terms of toxicity? is it gas? is it oil? >> it's hard to know. basically think about everything in your garage and now imagine that dumping in the ocean. and some of it is going to make it out here intact. a barrel might contain something. if it is punctured it would have

been diluted by now. that's what i think people are worried about is it showing up on a beach. >> put that in perspective for us. how much garbage was already floating out there that this now added to? >> well, that's what's really interesting about this. it's great that people are concerned about this one particular issue but to put it in perspective, there's probably over a hundred million tons of garbage basically floating in the pacific ocean alone. this represents 1.5% of what's out there. >> how do you clean it up? >> that's a big question. probably two things. the first is you have to stop stuff getting in. 80% of what we find in the ocean comes from land, not from ships. so you've got to stop it going in particularly single use items. single use plastics. some cities try to ban it. it creates people who want it and that's the problem. and then there are new ideas out there to scoop some of it up and make things out of it or convert

it back into fuel but that's always going to be a miniscule portion of the budget. the main thing is don't let single use plastics get in the ocean. >> how do you clean it up and how long does it take? >> once it's there, to be honest, most of it is going to stay there. people think this garbage stays around like an island. if it was an island, we could get it. it breaks down into almost mi o microscopic particles. bait fish have plastic in their stomach that makes its way up the food chain. once it is in, you have to wade it out which is a long, long time. hundreds of years. best solution, prevent it from going in in the first place. >> thank you so much. >> thank you, charlie. tributes to donna summer are pouring in. quincy jones says her voice was heartbeat and soundtrack of a

don't sound terrible but we can tell. >> i feel great. >> you look good, too. it's 8:00, welcome back to "cbs this morning." i'm gayle king. >> you are? >> charlie rose, with erica hill. one small step for man but one giant leap for the privatization of space. tomorrow morning a company called spacex plans to launch a rocket headed for the international space station. >> it is loaded with cargo, groceries for the most part, and astro physic neil de grasse tyson is director of the planetarium in new york and author of by the way, "space chronicles facing the ultimate frontier." hello, to you. >> great to be back here. >> your very spacey tie. >> got to go with the tie thing. >> i'm thinking tomorrow, neil, you're going to be doing the happy dance at your house, are you not? >> i think it's a long, overdue event that the participation of private launches of our frontier in space is under way. >> what's happening? when they say they're taking groceries what does that mean and how are they getting there? >> previously we got to the

space station with the space shuttle that had a cargo bay as well as four, five, six, seven astronauts and you don't really need the astronauts if you're just going to be delivering supplies. so spacex, the company founded by elon musk, who created the -- tesla -- that's how he got rich. >> the car. >> famous for saying how do you make a small fortune in space? start with a big fortune. it's not obvious at all this will reap huge money for him but it's an important first step in getting private enterprise to participate in the sort of the routine activities that nasa, in my judgment, really shouldn't be doing. we should reserve nasa for advancing the frontier, part of what its charter established for itself in 1958. >> there's been criticize for that about neil armstrong and other astronauts who have said that perhaps this isn't the best route, and actually recently scott pelley on "60 minutes" spoke with elon musk about that. >> i was very sad to see that, because those guys are, yeah,

you know those guys are heros of mine, so it's really tough. i wish they would come and visit and see the hardware that we're doing here and i think that would change their mind. >> they inspired you to do this, didn't they? >> yes. >> and to see them casting stones in your direction? >> difficult. >> that was -- >> wow. >> asking specifically about their concerns over the safety of things like commercial space flights. >> yeah. of course, you know, if you're doing something you haven't done before, there could be accidents but that's why you test things. in this particular launch, the falcon 9 is designed just for cargo, not for people, but spacex is in competition for bringing people to the space station as well. and nasa is -- has several contractors competing for that birth. so you would want to test it and make sure. if there's anything that shouldn't be dangerous, it's

getting to low earth orbit where we've been going since 1961. yeah, it's dangerous, but still you test it and it works and you do it and it's cheaper because the private enterprise, as we know, in a capitalist system, cares about profits and they know how to do it cheaper, better, faster. the postal service doesn't use their own airplanes to move mail. they buy space on cargo from a commercial carrier. >> they have the resources to do it? >> oh, yes. >> and if they do -- >> inventing them if they don't. that's the good part. >> and if they do it, it's the first step to manned flight? >> so the next phase is something called the dragon, which is a -- the dragon? the next sort of generation spacecraft that will carry humans to the space station and nasa just pays for that. we're already paying to hitch a ride with the russians. hitch is a free ride. we're paying hundreds of millions to take a seat with the russians to get the same thing done. so let's go for it.

>> do you think this is going to work? >> yeah. i don't see why not. i mean, you know, it's hard because the space station is moving 17,000 miles an hour and it's got to catch up with it and dock accurately and it's hard enough to parallel park on earth, so this is a delicate thing but it's not something that's never been done before. >> the late walter cronkite always wanted to go up in space. do you? >> had here's the thing if you shrink the earth down

>> yes. there's a freedom in playing these, you know, extreme characters, but, you know, you're not just being outrageous for the sake of it. in "borat" and "bruno" and "the alley g show," the first aim is to be as funny as you can but occasionally, we end up uncovering some unpleasant truths and people end up really opening up. >> exactly. >> behind all the madness is truth. >> yes. your friends say, the friends who know you well, say you've always since the time you were a little kid had no chutzpah -- you had put chutzpah and no fear. nothing scares you? >> no. i think, you know -- listen, there's been things that i've done in "borat" and "bruno" where you're going into a scene and you know there's a chance you'll get injured, you know, for example, in the cage fight in bru"bruno" with this 1200 ve angry people in there and i'm bound to sort of make out with

the guy and there's going to be a riot and i know there's going to be a riot. it's not that i'm not scared. i am scared. i'm able to overcome the fear. that's what i'm good at. >> where do the characters come from, like most recent t"the dictato dictator". >> the inspiration for t"the dictator" was colonel gadhafi. >> oh. >> it's a mixture of various different characters and an old face of a character. colonel gadhafi was the most absurd of the dictators, obviously vicious but would dress unintentionally like a 65-year-old woman, often broke wind during interviews with the bbc. >> yes. >> had 15 guards who protected him at all times, very few who remained -- coming up with mohammed al fayed, the father of dodie, who knew gadhafi and i said did you ever have any interaction with him.

he said before the days of viagra, he said i used to supply him with genital suppositories so he could extend his sexual performance. gadhafi would send someone to al fayed every three months for these special sue pos tors in the pre-viagra days. >> so he could do what again? >> these dictators, the one thing that links them together is they have many women. the most powerful man in the world do, he gets women. parties -- don't want to talk about it. >> we definitely get the joke. do you ever wonder or ever worry about offending someone or do you just think, look, people it's a joke, just stay with me please? does that ever cross your mind? >> not really. i mean the idea is that, you know, comedy should be free, you know. and, you know, to single out a particular group and say, we can't make a joke about them is almost a form of prejudice, you know.

it's kind of pat pay tronnizing. >> this is the first time i've seen you not in character. >> me too. >> because? other than the fact that we asked, because we wanted to see you -- >> it's a different kind of movie. this movie i'm not undercover, it's not with real people, it's not a documentary. it's a story, it's a kind of, you know, if you imagine colonel gadhafi, you know, out of power and working in a vegan health food store in brooklyn, that's the kind of thing. so in order to convey that. >> your mother and dad wanted you to go to cambridge and law school. >> they must be proud. >> are they surprised about anything that has come out of your movie career? >> i did go to cambridge and ended up not going to law school. when i grew up in london, you know, in the suburb of london, there were no sort of people who went to hollywood and started making movies. when i told my parents i wanted to become an actor they assumed it was a live performance. >> didn't know anybody in television. >> exactly.

>> seems absurd and -- >> but you gave yourself five years to make it. why five years? how did you come up with five? >> five years to make enough money to kind of feed myself, you know. that was it. and at the end of five years, actually, i landed the job as, you know, playing this reporter which i had made up the character of ali g. >> what you do in character is not unlike some of the things you would do in which you would take on character to get admitted to things even at cambridge, and to back stage and into theaters to do things? >> yes. >> pose as a waiter or as part of a crew? >> yes. well listen, at cambridge, the thing about it is, because i didn't work very hard, i was mainly acting, one of the things i had to realize is how to fake it, my way through university. there was training there. >> you've had some great writers who not only are writers but actors like seth rogen and jonah hill have written with you? >> yes. well seth rogen, who's obviously
