7:07 am
migrant families often cross the border there. omar, the details of this story are so upsetting. i guess the question now is, where are the kids? >> good morning. a spokesperson with the office of refugee resettlement told us a majority of the children who were in the facility will now be transferred into their custody. as for the 50 or so children who were not transferred out of the facility, still don't know what is going to happen to them. this all comes as lawyers inspected the clint location last week and described children living in unsanitary conditions. and we spoke to one of the lawyers, laura mckergy, of what she saw. >> many children have not had access to a single shower or bath. they were wearing the same dirty clothing they crossed the border with. their clothes were stained with snot, with breastmilk, with urine. and children didn't have access to any soap to wash their hands.

attorney kim fox, who defended the decision. >> the nature of this case suggests that he was eligible for an alternative prosecution. >> there's elliigible and optional. you could have tried to go to trial with him. >> we could have. >> the backlash against state attorney kim fox continued long after her office dropped those charges against smollett. a judge even ordered that a special prosecutor investigate the handling of the case, which could mean more charges against smollett. >> all right, adriana, thank you. investigators in the bahamas want to know what caused a violent bus crash involving american tourists. more than 30 people were aboard the bus when it overturned yesterday. five were hurt, four of those victims were flown to a hospital in florida. images show the bus on its side and people sprawled out on the road. the outing was part of a carnival "ecstasy" cruise that left jacksonville, florida, saturday. we know more this morning about a missing university of
7:12 am
utah student and where she was before she disappeared more than a week ago. police say mckenzie lieuic was seen meeting an unknown person in the middle of the night. david begno is following this story. what are we learning? >> we have received a host of new information since we first brought this story 24 hours ago. police say mckenzie lewis arrived at the airport last week. she took a lyft to hatch park, 20 minutes from the airport, right off the 15 freeway. investigators say the 23-year-old met an unknown individual, put her bag in that person's car, seemed happy to see the person, and then left. she hasn't been seen or heard from since. >> our detectives have been working around the clock on this case. >> police in salt lake city worked overnight to find the person who met mckenzie at that park the morning she disappeared. salt lake's assistant police chief says investigators have been searching the area for clues, looking for surveillance footage. >> detectives have spoken with
7:13 am
the lyft driver and learned that mckenzie was met at hatch park by an individual in a vehicle. the lyft driver left mckenzie at the park with that person and stated that mckenzie did not appear to be any type of distress. >> investigators have given us this time line, which starts at 1:35 a.m. on monday, june 17. when lueck landed at the airport after going to california for her grandmother's funeral. she texted her mother at 2:01:00 a.m. to let her know she arrived. 40 minutes later, she took a lyft to hatch park in north salt lake city. she arrived there just before 3:00 a.m. >> detectives have interviewed her friends and acquaintances from school, and we have checked locations she was known to frequent. >> doubt says lueck's cell phone isn't ringing. >> no call, no email, no social media, nothing. >> a spokesperson for lueck's family tells cbs news a major
7:14 am
part of the investigation is her dating life and use of dating apps. investigators are exploring whether she had any secret media accounts or an alternative cell phone. >> we don't have any evidence any foul play has occurred, but the circumstances of her just going off the grid is concerning to us. >> our cbs affiliate in salt lake city reports that police have six officers who are working a tip line this morning. we actually posted the number on our website. it's 801-799-4420. keep in mind, she missed her midterm college exam, and she was supposed to fly home to los angeles on sunday, but she didn't make that flight either. >> peculiar circumstances. >> 3:00 a.m. in a park? >> and getting into another car? >> who takes a lyft to get to a car? >> bottom line, she's an adult. if she's okay and wants to go off the grid, that's cool. but they want to hear from her. >> let somebody know. very disturbing. >> too many milestones she missed. >> yeah. >> she's apparently responsible and reliable. >> yeah. >> she hasn't been heard from.
7:15 am
not a word. >> all right. we'll stay on top of that story. thank you. in his first u.s. tv interview, the head of instagram says the platform is evaluating many things, including how to handle those so-called fakes. you know, phony videos manipulated to look and sound very real. adam rose arrestee took over instagram. facebook owns instagram. we met him yesterday for a wide-ranging interview, including what they're doing about a deepfake video including a video featuring mark zuckerberg. there is one right now with cbs. have you seen that one? >> yes. >> cbs with mark saying something that he didn't really say. >> one man with total control of billions of people's stolen data. >> it clearly is a fake video. >> yes. >> now, in the past, you seem to be against deepfakes and let's get them down. we're surprised you haven't taken that one down. why? >> we don't have a policy against deepfakes currently. we're trying to evaluate if we
7:16 am
want to do that and if so how you would define deepfakes. >> in this particular one, it looks like he's talking to cbs and he isn't. >> yes. >> saying something he didn't say. >> yes. >> that's not good. >> no. >> adam, i've seen it too. it's not good. >> i don't feel good about it. >> well, you can take it down. you know people. >> well, i actually think more than taking it down, i think it's a question about how do we do it in a principled way. we're not going to make a one-off decision to take a piece of video down just because it's o of mark and mark happens to run the place. that would be really inappropriate and irresponsible. we need to be transparent about this. >> but it's influencing people with things that aren't true. that's why it's upsetting. >> i agree with you. >> yeah. >> but if it takes too long to identify it, at that point the damage is done. we can declare victory, but that's not a victory at all. that's totally hollow. the thing we're focused on now is not whether you take it down when you find it but how do you find it more quickly. if you don't, if millions of people see a video like that in the first 24 hours or first 48 hours -- >> the damage is done.
7:17 am
>> the damage is done. so the conversation so very important currently is moot. >> but why leave it up when you know it's a tea pardeepfake. >> right now we try to balance safety and speech. and that balance is really, really tricky. but honestly right now i think the most important thing for us to focus on is getting to the content quicker. once we can do that, then we can have the next debate about whether or not to take it down. >> i'll just say, adam, it's tough to look at that video, knowing it's fraud. >> i struggle with it too. i'm a person too. >> yeah. >> and it's not like i don't have my own beliefs and i don't see stuff that violates or disagrees with me online or instagram from time to time. >> despite cbs asking facebook to take down the video for copyright violation, the company as you see has refused, pointing to the first amendment concerns. so adam and i went back and forth and at the end, i said, well, we're just going to have to agree to disagree on this point. but he's very thoughtful, he's looking at everything. he's been on the job nine months
7:18 am
now. he said that's how long it takes to have a normal, healthy baby. but, you know, i really -- we had a great conversation. and he really is -- he takes this job very seriously and he's very well-liked in the company. he came in very unusual circumstances. >> i agree, these are very tricky circumstances for them. but, i mean, as we were discussing with nick thompson, i think last week, you know, they can take things down in a hurry when they really want to. because it's a business problem. >> yes. >> this video shouldn't be up. >> it's not real. >> and they know it. >> and they know it. >> you can argue, the damage is done, but i don't understand why it's still there. had, anthony. >> yeah. >> we went back and forth. >> he knows people. the ceo of instagram can't do it, who can? >> yeah. >> i don't understand. >> they are looking into it. we will have more of our conversation with adam mosery tonight, and tomorrow, instagram reveals new features to stop online bullying. americans hit with tens of

7:41 am
announcing a major crackdown including 94 actions targeting operations around the country they say are responsible for more than 1 billion calls. >> i think it's an extremely important issue. we feel pressure externally, we feel pressure and responsibility internally and we want to rise to it. >> reporter: the ftc says companies targeted in the enforcement actions were using robo calls to pitch everything from bogus credit card interest rate reduction services and medical alert systems. >> do you think you'll be able to fix it though? what they're doing is illegal. much of it comes from overseas. how do you even stop that? >> so today announcing operation call it quits is part of the solution to the problem. it is not the whole of the solution. it's going to taken gaugement from industry. it's going to take technological development. it's going to taken gaugement from consumers which we at the ftc also try to do. the hope is for all these combined efforts we can help push back. >> our job at ftc is to enforce

7:43 am
you'd think this would be easier. >> it's complex. you have the overseas calls, the domestic businesses they're going after. now they're also trying to go after the people that supply the technology that make it possible for a lot of people to do robo calls as well. >> it is interesting and it is good to see democrats and republics can agree on something. >> they say they're able to. >> that just annoys everybody, i don't care who you are. >> just hearing the rings in your package i was getting anxiety. >> he started twitching. >> oh, no. anna, thank you very much. now to our robo correspondent, but we like him. that's vlad due tear. >> tony, we'll show you who is in the cast and why they translated the 448-page report into a ten-act play. nfl star cam newton offered big bucks for more leg room. denied. he does look pretty big in the

yesterday to build support. president trump says the new york based columnist who accused him of sexual assault is, quote, not my type says the president of the united states. in an interview with the political newspaper, "the hill," the president says this. an encounter by carroll never happened and she's totally lying. >> good morning. e. jean carroll is a prominent reporter. she said mr. trump threw her up against the wall in the dressing room of a new york city department store. he allegedly forced himself on her. she said she fought back in the alleged three-men encounter. in an interview last night, she described what she says happened. >> we were even -- almost even in height. and down go the tights and it was against my will. and it hurt. and it was a fight. >> carroll says she would have
8:04 am
considered a formal complaint against mr. trump with the new york police department, but lawyers told her the statute of limitations had expired. in her new book, carroll says former cbs chairman and ceo lessy moonves sexually assaulted her in an elevator in beverly hills an after interview in the 1990s. in a statement, he denies carol's accusations. he was forced out of cbs last year following allegations of sexual misconduct. he denied those allegations, as well. >> thank you very much. >> it's all just -- i don't even know where to begin on this particular story, but i think it's interesting that e. jean carroll says back in the day she told two of her friends and friends convinced her not to go public with it because no one would believe her, that she would not be believed. >> there's the legal question and then there's the political question. when it comes to trump and these
8:05 am
accusations, it's baked in, as they say. >> the president denies meeting her back in the day. there is a photograph actually that appeared in new york magazine which ran the excerpt of the president shaking hands with e. jean carroll and her husband at the time. so they have been face-to-face with each other. he said it was something in passing. >> to say not my type is an interesting denial. >> because it raises the question if she was your type, what does that mean? we're going to move on to this. the supreme court is about to release two rulings that could shape american politics for years to come. the justices will decide this week whether to let the trump administration ask about citizenship in the 2020 census and they're expected to decide whether congressional district maps in north carolina and maryland are unconstitutional because they are drawn into politically slanted a way. cbs news legal analyst and law professor kim whaley is the
8:06 am
author of the new book "how to read the constitution and why." good morning. >> good morning. >> for those that are not legal eagles, they hear about these two cases about are you a citizen and the drawing of congressional maps. what are the stakes for the average american? >> there's a lot of forces moving away from individual votes counting and corporate money, other sort of interests actually deciding our democracy. so these particular cases could, one, the citizenship could either favor or disfavor counting heads based on race. i think that's the question. that is, if people have to answer citizenship, they might not answer the census at all. there would be fewer heads in that particular state. that state might get you fooer votes in congress and/or less money. gerrymandering is a big one. that's on both sides of the political spectrum. both democrats and republicans carves up districts in ways to make sure they continue to win regardless of what the voters
8:07 am
want. and the supreme court has not stepped in with a standard to test when something is too carved up and when something is insufficient. so we'll have to see if they're going to see it this time. >> go ahead. >> if too carved up, what you're saying is people's votes will not matter as much as they could or people's states will not have the representation they should. >> yeah. the idea is even if you're a democrat, if you're in a solidly updated district that winds along a river in some bizarre way, you will never, ever flip that district to the other side because of the way it's carved up. it will automatically be a shoo-in for that prior candidate. >> you write "in a crumbling democra democracy, the vote really matters." do you think we're in a crumbling democracy? >> yeah. we're in an anterior you ra where we have increasing power in the office of presidency, not just under donald trump, but for deck atd now and a congress
8:08 am
that's not really putting up some stop signs. and human nature, if there's a stop sign but there's no consequences, you'll blow through the stop sign. eventually we have too much power in government, that will hurt the individual. so people have to hi about taking their government back and the best way to do that is at the ballot box. >> let's talk about this with regard to iran. the president says he doesn't need congressional approval to strike iran. what does the constitution say? >> the constitution is in conflict here. congress has the power to raise war, but the president has the commander in chief power. so scholars differ on which -- the chicken and egg, which comes first. does there have to be a declaration of war to sends troops into battle? congress has allowed presidents over and over to send troops into battle. so, again, without a stopgap, without a stop sign, a ticket on the windshield saying mr.

sexual abuse have made it difficult to separate the man from his art. earlier this year, the hbo documentary "leaving neverland" highlighted the story of two boys, now grown men, would say jackson abused them when they were kids. gayle sat down with them in february and they spoke about michael jackson's legacy. >> where does michael jackson sit with you both today? >> i don't think i can answer that. it's -- yeah. i still have really -- i can't -- yeah. a lot of mixed feelings. there's still -- there's still a bit of love and there's still -- it's almost like a guilt for saying the truth, like i betrayed him. >> michael jackson has denied any inappropriate behavior with children. his family says these accusations are untrue. the week before the documentary aired, his music was stream bd 16 million times and just last
8:17 am
week, it was streamed 15.5 million times. michael jackson's estate released a statement this morning stath in part, michael jackson's divine abilities remain the yardstick by which others are measured and against which today's masters still measure themselves. do you think that his talent can and or should be separated from these allegations? >> i think that's a complicated question. >> it is, yeah. >> and i think can it be? some people make that choice, yes. i think you look at a whole person's life so i don't see any reason to separate both talent and legacy. and i think part of these allegations are part of his legacy, too. >> you call michael jackson, i've heard you say this it's the sound track of your life. do you still listen to his music? i don't. >> why? >> because i believe in the story survivors a lot more than feeling the need to be sfwraned by the music he created. >> it seems like you couldn't separate it. >> yeah.
8:18 am
>> how far i would take it and my own separation, he is the sound track from my childhood. his music is in the body of how i think about memory. at the same time, i'm not going to indulge in it now. i don't see the need to kind of actively listen to it now. >> when you hear it, because sometimes you just can't help but hear it, how do you react to it? >> i have an aversion to it now. >> do you? >> absolutely. sexual assault and sexual crimes, deeply touched a lot of people in my own life, in my own family. when i think about what it means to hold the experiences of people over the experiences of some people, there's an easy choice for me to make. >> so janet jackson won't comment on the documentary or the allegations in particular, but says her brother's legacy will continue. pretty vague, pretty up in the air. what is that legacy at this point? >> it's a whole story. it's a whole human story. michael jackson was a child star as much as he was an adult star
8:19 am
and, not but, but he's a man who has been accused of some horrendous crimes. >> it's interesting. you said take out the "but," it's an "and." i think that's an interesting distinction. >> sometimes it takes time for that legacy to be processed. that means for people who grew up with this music, it's more difficult to process because it's in you, as you say. >> for sure. one of my biggest memories is going to a concert halfway across the country with my mom, seeing michael jackson perform and one of the biggest moments that happened was when he came out on stage. a young woman three rows over from me broke down in tears just immediately. and i think it's -- i don't fault people who have a deep investment in what we thought we knew about him as a public figure, but there's a full story to him. >> what, if anything, does it say to you that the streaming is up, 16 million and still 15 million last week, despite all of the allegations.
8:20 am
and people really now are very much aware and they've heard these two survivors speak. >> i hear those numbers and i hear there's 15 million different stories in that, right? i don't know if we can say there's a singular conclusion we can draw. i think some people are looking to, like, make some sense out of what they understood to be this public figure. and then the man that he was. i think there's some people who defiantly want to say this music still makes me feel good. i think a lot of us are tethered to the memories of what music and his image has meant to a lot of us over the generations. >> there are a lot of people who reacted very angrily to these two men coming out and saying -- >> and blame the men. they didn't want to hear it. >> that's misplaced anger. it's frustration of, look, i have a whole collection of this music and the guy is not here to talk about it, so you get upset. but i understand completely. trey jackson, thank you for helping us think through all this. we appreciate it. spacex just saw the spectacular launch of its falcon

beatles music, wings music, to see which ones we're going to do. and to learn them. >> what do you mean, you've forgotten them? >> yeah. >> really? >> too many. too many words. too many notes. they're very hard. i mean, you know, it's not like they're all three chords. >> hard when you write so many great songs. we assume those songs are unforgettable, but paul mccartney told sharon they are not. they had 20 number one singles and they remain one of the most influential bands of all time. a new movie "yesterday" set in a different world where an aspiring singer is the only musician who remembers the beatles who becomes famous pretending all those great songs are his. ♪ yesterday all my troubles seemed so far away ♪
8:44 am
♪ now it seems as though they're here to stay ♪ ♪ oh i believe in yesterday >> when did you write that? >> i didn't write it. paul mccartney wrote it, the beatles. >> who? >> john, paul, ringo, the beatles. >> good morning to you both. welcome. this is such a great premise. i imagine, i mean, casting the lead must be very difficult. you get a singer who can act, an actor who can sing. you basically said, himesh saved you in this case. >> yes, you narrow the field down quickly because it's not like horse riding. actors will promise you they can ride a horse. you can't test it. but he turned up, and it was extraordinary. you anyhknew he was the guy strt away. >> how? >> soul. he sang with soul. you can't manufacture it. you can ruin it if you're not
8:45 am
careful, but you can't manufacture it. he had that special quality. >> that's you singing, himesh. we heard paul mccartney saying how hard it was to remember the words. were you a fan before this? >> not as big of a fan as now. going on this journey made me a huge fan of them, but i kind of knew what we all tend to know and had a couple albums. >> you sang those songs live in the film. >> everything you hear in the movie is me singing live and playing the guitar live. >> not only are you singing beatles songs but you're doing some of them in front of ed sheeran. what was that like? >> strange. the first time we met ed, danny made me sing long and winding road in front of ed with no instruments. i had to sing a capella, five minutes after meeting him. >> like cooking for julia child. >> yeah. >> your performance of that in the movie, by the way, is terrific. really terrific. >> yes. >> and ed sheeran is one of the surprises of the film because he's quite a good actor. >> he is. he came to rehearsal. p>> was he your first choice fo
8:46 am
the role? >> we asked chris martin first. >> did you, oh? >> and -- >> i have to be honest. >> i think ed is perfect. you ask chris. >> he wasn't available. so then, of course, we went to ed and lied and said ed, you're our first choice. and he said no i'm not. you just asked chris martin. i think all the pop stars have a facebook private page that they all keep in touch with. >> danny, i have to know, what was it like negotiating with the beatles catalog, and you talked to paul and ringo and their widows. this is a story about them being forgotten. how do you get approval for that? >> i think that's their sense of humor. it's not a straight biopic or life story like so many films these days. i think they liked the idea of let's do one where we're erased from the world's consciousness and see what happens. that appealed to them, i think. >> it's not easy to get approval of the beatles because each of the four members of the family
8:47 am
have to sign off. >> one for all, all for one. >> i like when you said, himesh, the movie makes a point of not addressing the character's ethnicity, which i also thought was a very interesting way to do it. has it been difficult to find roles like that? >> i have actually been quite lucky in the last few years of kind of being out there auditioning. i think there's been a change in the narrative. people are speaking up on new platforms and being listened to in different ways. >> you did that on purpose, danny? >> it's just quality. i mean, it's just talent. i wouldn't have cast him if i had found somebody better. a terrible thing to say, but you know, it's true. he was the best. and it's a triumph of talent, really, over kind of other systems of, you know, stardom or what some people might think are appropriate. >> one of my favorite lines in the movie is a world without beatles is a world that's infinitely worse, which i think is so true. it made me want to go and play
8:48 am
all the beatles songs i have. >> unimaginable to me. >> i agree with you. were you just a huge beatles fan? how did this premise come about? >> one of our leading writers is a beatles -- is a crazy beatles fan. don't let him trap you in an elevator. and start talking about the beatles because you would never leave. >> i actually would probably like to take that ride. >> he borrowed the idea. interesting because so much of this is about borrowing other people's -- he borrowed it off jack barr, who wrote this wonderful script. it does have the joy of their work in it. it's a joyful -- there's some solemn moment in it and very tender melancholy moments, but it has joy in it like the songs do. >> a lot of joy. i really enjoyed it. thank you both. and bravo. bravo. danny boyle and himesh patel. yesterday is in theaters this friday. we thank you. you'll be right back. we'll be right back.
