7:08 am
reporter: f plat down so close to its final destination. >> i don't know anything about what this pilot did or what he was thinking, but it could have been much more tragic, the fact that there is no injuries on the ground is a miracle in itself. >> reporter: we learned the victims were expecting to attend a real estate conference happening here in the orange county area. we've also learned that the pilot had a number of years of experience. in fact, he just renewed his pilot license last year. >> wow, thank you, mireya. a miracle and tragedy too. tough to see instagram pictures or any picture you know was probably last picture taken of the person. the investigation of course continues there. the search for five people on a plane that crashed in the s this morning. the sightseeing plane went down saturday in denali national park. officials say it's near the summit of thunder mountain, about 1,100 feet above sea level. the pilot said all five people

7:11 am
>> in retrospect, i probably would have done things a little differently. again, this is before the russian mania. this is before they were building it up in the press. for me, this was opposition research. >> reporter: in january, the trump legal team revealed in a letter to the special counsel that it was president trump himself who dictated the explanation about adoption. which contradicted previous white house statements about the president's involvement. >> this was donald trump and his lawyers. the president was not involved in that. >> he certainly didn't dictate. you know, like i said, he weighed in, offered suggestion, like any father would do. >> reporter: sekulow insisted that even though the public account of that meeting has changed, the information the legal team has given the special counsel has been very clear. legal experts have said that criminal charges linked to conspiracy are a possibility for the president's son. but sekulow says he is not aware that trump jr. is a target in this investigation.s questions

7:44 am
champlain, are unmanned at night. they help close the security gaps. >> there are thousands of stations like this one that report motion detection and cameras. when they sense someone coming across, the tricky part is getting a border patrol agent there in time to catch them. >> reporter: sometimes entering the u.s. is as simple as crossing a 20-foot spot in the woods or paddling across a lake. and you don't have to check in with anyone. porter fox is author of "northland," a book he describes as the forgotten american border. >> we're more vulnerable to terrorists sneaking into this country. the only known terrorists being apprehended coming into america came from the north. it was characterized as the

8:01 am
>> special counsel robert mueller is examining that 2016 trump tower meeting. >> the president is publicly shifting his explanation for the purpose of the meeting. we're in downtown brooklyn, iowa and it was here mollie tibbetts was last seen running more than two weeks ago. the reward for his case is up to $260,000. police point to progress against gun violence. but some community leaders are calling for the police superintendent and the mayor to step down. >> and carlos gomez is hit by that pitch. >> here the dramatic -- >> he couldn't walk to second because he fell down. >> what do we say when he's oing down. we yell -- timber. >> that was outstanding. i'm gayle king with vladimir duthiers and bianna golodryga. why did he fall like that? was that a joke? i just saw the end of it.
8:02 am
>> i don't know that it was a joke. trulyff hanger. >> we're all baseball fans here. >> i know. >> he's okay. ande're happy to report this just in, he's a-okay. orahegin with this. 98 people confirmed dead and we hundreds more are severely injured after a large earthquake hit one of the most exotic aestinations. the u.s. geological survey said a magnitude 6.9 quake hit an indonesian island of lomboc and rumbled nearby bali last night. it toppled bridges and flattened homes. shas looked through the night for survivors in the rubble. >> stranded tourists are describing the scary moments the earthquake hit. >> we felt big shaking and then just ran and then things started falling down on us. we -- >> i started running to the exit but then everybody in the restaurant was running for the exit. so it was like a big stampede.

thro >> well this was the second deadly quake in a week to hit the popular tourist island. a 2016 meeting involving trump jr. and a russian lawyer is getting a new explanation from trump. in a tweet yesterday defending his son, the president said this was a meeting to get information on an opponent and totally legal and done all the time in aboutcs and went nowhere. i did not know about it. >> >> when it was revealed a year first faid they discussed the adoption of russian children, a abou day later trump jr. said the russian lawyer offered vague ambiguous information that russians were helping hillary elinton. abodays after that, trump jr. released e-mails showing he was offered damaging information on clinton. when the president was asked about the meeting, he down played the political value. >> most people would have taken that meeting. it's called opposition research. i guess they talked about, as i see it, they talked about adoption and some things.
8:04 am
adoption wasn't even part of the campaign. >> two months ago the president's attorney jay sekulow acknowledged mr. trump dictated the initial statement referring to adoption. now he had denied the president was involved in the meeting. and the stories about it a big part of the have russian investigation. paula reid is in alexandria, virginia, covering the trial of former trump campaign chairman paul manafort. virginia, before we take a look ahead to week two of the manafort case, is the president wght when he said that the trump tower meeting was, quote, totally legal, and how big of a deal is this? how important is it? >> reporter: well to special counsel robert mueller it is ncredibly important. he's looking at the trump tower tingsng as one of a pattern of meetings between campaign officials and russian peratives. u.s. campaigns cannot coordinate or receive any larort from foreign nationals. so the question is, was it just
8:05 am
a meeting or was this part of a larger effort to coordinate the release of information about the opponent or in any way meddle in the election. chanow the special counsel has already charged over a dozen russians with conspiring to meddle in our elections. so the question now for these investigators is did anyone in the donald trump campaign participate? now there is other legal exposure for donald trump jr. he has not yet been interviewed y special counsel and that should concern him and his fingly and anyone around him because you're just a witness. if you are just offering evidence, you are brought in much earlier in an you're broion. int if he is interviewed he needs to make sure he tells the truth. because clearly there's a lot of different versions about what happened and while it is not a crime to release a false press release, it is a crime to lie to the fbi. and there are questions about possible perjury. he testified before congress his father didn't know about the trump tower meeting but if that turns out not to be true that is another possible exposure for him. >> all right, day five of paul manafort trial on tax evasion
8:06 am
we charges. wra are you expecting this upcoming week of testimony? >> reporter: this is going to be a big week and the prosecution said they should be able to wrap up the case by the end of the week. they'll continue to urge this jury to follow the money. now last week the star piece of evidence was this $15,000 ostrich coat that sort of came to symbolize manafort's taste in luxury. but this week it is all about his former business associate and deputy campaign chairman richard gates. he's the star prosecution witness and he agreed to testify against manafort in exchange for leniency in his own criminal case. a. paula, thank you very much. first lady melania trump said she's willing to visit ebron james's school for at-risk children after the president mocked the nba orperstar. the president tweeted that don lemon made james look smart. which isn't easy to do. smar followed an interview where domes told lemon he believes the president is using sports to divide the country. the first lady put out a statement over the weekend toying james is, quote, working to do good things on behalf of jr next generation. s> she does seem to march to her
