in recent years. who were they targeting with these scams? >> reporter: prosecutors say the defendants preyed romance to businesses and the elderly. the investigation began in 2016 with a single bank account and one victim and grew to include dozens of victims in the u.s. and around the world, some who lost hundreds of thousands of dollars. the common thread is that all of these schemes involve the internet to defraud victims. >> reporter: federal authorities took 11 defendants into custody near los angeles thursday as part of what they say is a highly sophisticated crime ring. according to a 252-count indictment 80 defendants are accused of hacking e-mail accounts to convince businesses and individuals to make bogus payments. the suspects would then funnel that money to nigeria. >> the money launderers routinely went as far as registering fictitious business names with l.a. county so they

could open bank accounts in the fictitious business names. >> reporter: prosecutors say the alleged thieves stole $6 million and tried to make off with another $40 million. the suspects also allegedly used online romance scams similar to the one debby montgomery johnson fell victim to in 2010. >> i talked to him a few times. we messaged every day. >> reporter: the widowed mother of four thought she was communicating with a british businessman only to find out it was a nigerian con man. she says she lost much of her life savings. federal officials have warned about the riese in online fraud in public service announcements like this one. >> mr. jacobs just transferred the money for the emerson project. >> what emerson project? >> don't be that guy. >> reporter their hope is the latest bust will send a strong message to criminals thinking of preying on innocent people. >> this case is part of our ongoing efforts to protect americans from fraudulent schemes. >> reporter: if convicted all of the defendants could face decades in prison.

in the days ahead federal authorities will be working with their foreign counterparts in nine countries to apprehend nearly 60 additional suspects, tony. >> jamie, back here in this country what should people look out for to avoid getting scammed like this? >> reporter: that is a good question. the fbi is reminding americans they should never send money to someone they don't know, have not met, and really have no reason to trust. and to never provide bank account information. they also urge people to be cautious of urgent demands for money, tony. >> thanks. >> scary stuff. thank you, jamie. for the first time we're hearing from someone who says he witnessed part of the deadly confrontation between a connecticut man and a worker at a caribbean resort. scott hapgood faces a manslaughter charge for the death of kenny mitchel who died after a struggle with happen gad. now a bellman first to arrive on scene is describing what he saw. errol barnett spoke to the

employee. what exactly did he tell you? >> reporter: he says he arrived at scott hapgood's room moments after the confrontation between him and kenny mitchel began. you can see the luxury resort where this all took place over my right shoulder. what is important is that clarke's story is at odds with hapgood's version of events and is raising new questions about what really took place at this hotel back in april. >> i cannot say what happened initially. i only came there for the aftermath. >> reporter: geshuane clarke is a bellman at anguilla's resort and says he is the first person to find scott hapgood restraining another hotel employee on the floor of his bathroom april 13th. >> i saw kenny on his back and mr. hapgood over kenny. >> reporter: clarke says he saw hapgood's forearm on mitchel's neck and was told mitchel came after hapgood with a knife asking for money. what are you saying at this time? >> well, i keep telling him, okay.

yes i understand what you are saying but you still need to give him proper breathing space. >> reporter: at one point clarke says mitchel tried responding. >> he said, can i speak? then in that same position mr. hapgood came, looked down at him and said, you don't have a -- thing to say. >> reporter: clarke says he and his security manager tried to intervene but hapgood refused to budge for roughly 30 minutes. >> he said he would not move. he would not get up. he would not do anything until the police is present. >> reporter: clarke also says hapgood's wife came in the room after he did and recorded part of the encounter on her phone. how do you know it was video and not pictures? >> no, because i saw when she pressed the record button. >> reporter: an autopsy shows mitchel died from positional asphyxia. a toxicology report also shows he had drugs and alcohol in his system. hapgood's family says scott was bitten and stabbed but clarke says the knife mitchel was allegedly carrying was clean. >> when i checked the knife, there was no blood on the knife.

>> reporter: outside the courthouse following thursday's hearing cbs spoke with mitchel's brother marshall. >> what would justice look like for you? >> you take a life. you understand? >> reporter: hapgood who was vacationing in anguilla with his family back in april says he is eager for a trial where his innocence will be proven. >> some day i will be able to tell the real story in a legal setting. the sooner that day comes, the better. thank you. >> reporter: now, a representative for the hapgoods say they deny most of clarke's account except for the delay in releasing mitchel. mr. hapgood has said through his representatives that he was afraid that the hotel staff were part of some type of plan to attack him and he didn't trust them. anthony, the next hearing in this trial is set for september 9th. >> errol barnett in anguilla thanks.

we learned this morning david koch has died. his brother and business partner charles said in a statement, anyone who worked with david surely experienced his giant personality and passion for life. how important was david koch? >> by any measure david koch was an enormous figure in the business and political world. david koch had stepped down from his role at koch industries in june, 2018, due to declining health, but he still shared majority control of the second largest private firm in the united states along with his brother, charles. david was worth $42.4 billion. that made them the 11th richest company and family in the world according to "forbes." the koch brothers are well known for their political act vich and helped shape right wing politics at the grass roots level in this country for many, many years. they donated money to issues and candidates mostly conservative but also libertarian. along with his political donations david was also known as a significant philanthropist

and was a survivor of prostate cancer and donated $207.1 million to memorial sloan kettering cancer center. he and his wife julia live here in new york city. david koch was 79. >> as much money as he pumped into the political system what do you think this will mean for the political world? >> the koch brothers now, charles koch, he'll remain in politics and americans for prosperity is their grass roots organization, foundational imprint in american politics. they'll stay around. they did not support president trump. they stayed out of the presidential campaign in 2016 and have no intention of participating in 2020. but at the grass roots level, registering republican voters, motivating them on conservative causes, and being welcomed at the white house as part of the broader republican coalition will all remain. now just charles koch, they will continue to be active in politics at the conservative/libertarian level. >> the two brothers worked together? >> indeed. >> he'll be remembered by many for his funding of climate

change denialist organizations as well. >> thank you very much. more than a dozen workers at the new york city jail where jeffrey epstein killed himself have been ordered to answer questions about hi death. sources tell cbs news a grand jury issued subpoenas to corrections officers and staff members in a probe of possible pcriminal wrongdoing at the metropolitan correctional center. the disgraced financeer accused of sex trafficking underage girls apparently hanged himself in his cell nearly two weeks ago. guards were supposed to check on epstein every 30 minutes but records reportedly show they left him alone for hours before his suicide. okay. this is horrifying. scary moments on a hawaiian airlines flight from oakland to honolulu carrying 184 passengers when it suddenly encountered a problem. dramatic cell phone video captures the cabin filling with smoke on flight ha-47 yesterday. air traffic control audio caught the moment the crew prepared for

an emergency landing. >> emergency aircraft. we will be evacuating on the runway. >> flight 47 just want to verify that you said you will evacuate on the runway? >> we plan to evacuate at this time. that is affirmative hawaiian 47. >> the filllight touched down i honolulu without incident. emergency slides were deployed to help. seven people were transported to hospitals for smoke related symptoms. in a tweet the airline said a seal failed in the left engine causing oil to leak citing that as the cause of a problem. i always worry about that when flying over an ocean because there is nowhere to go. >> a lot of parts on those planes. >> incomplee behrgh an emergency landing. they are terrifying. president and mrs. trump will fly to france tonight for this weekend's g7 summit. the annual meeting has highlighted divisions between president trump and some of the strongest u.s. allies.

weijia jiang is at the white house. why do they say this year's summit will be very different than previous years? >> reporter: good morning. for the first time in the 44-year history it will not end with the leaders signing a joint statement. the host french president emmanuel macron said the break in tradition signaled a deep crisis in democracy. last year president trump refused to sign the agreement and left the summit early amid disputes over trade. this year the group will take on several big issues including a weakening global economy. iran tension, and the possibility of russia rejoining the group after it was kicked out in 2014 over the annexation of crimea. president trump has recently said it would be good and appropriate for moscow to come back. macron said that can't happen until vladimir putin agrees to take steps to resolve the crisis in ukraine. there's also a newcomer this year who will likely make the event a little more interesting. new british prime minister boris johnson, who is known for being brash and bold will be there.

the president has reportedly told aides his meeting with johnson is the only bright spot of the trip. now, after the g7, president trump will head to poland to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the start of world war ii. as we've been reporting he was supposed to move on to denmark but abruptly canceled that leg of the trip because the prime minister said it would be absurd to talk about the u.s. purchasing greenland, which is something the president wanted and tony selfishly that means we had to suddenly unpack our bags to copenhagen, too. >> all right. weijia jiang, thank you very much. attorneys general from every state in america are joining forces with major phone companies to fight the rapidly growing problem of robocalls. an estimated 4.7 billion robocalls were placed in july, alone. many of those are from scammers. consumer investigative whats t n for all of us consumers? >> hopefully it will help stop the cars, right? that is the idea.

consumers lose millions of er 12 major telephone companies say they've been worki for nearly two years to implement a new, voluntary, nationwide, antirobo call agreement. the companies say they will offer free call blocking tools to customers. that includes blocking unwanted calls and deploying a system that labels fake calls. they also agreed to dedicate sufficient resources to investigate suspicious calls and patterns, which all sounds good. >> very good. finally some relief because i'm not even answering the phone sometimes if i don't recognize the number. >> i know. >> will everything be free? you mentioned some of the cell call blocking services will be. when will we see relief? >> this is for free. however, not all of the companies are part of this. the agreement does not cover those who use old copper land line phones. there is no timeline for the 12 major companies to make good on these voluntary promises.

this agreement targets scam robo callers, so legal robo callers like debt collectors are still allowed. they can still call you. >> anna, thanks. environmental organizations say humans are to blame for fires devastating the amazon. a region vital to our planet's climate. more than 74,000 fires have begun in brazil this year with roughly 40% in the amazon area alone. manuel bojorquez is on his way to brazil and joins us from miami. how do these fires compare to those in previous years? >> reporter: scientists are telling us there has been an 84% increase in forest fires this year and many believe deforestation is partly to blame. brazil's leadership argues that some of the environmental laws protecting the amazon could actually be hurting the brazilian economy. regardless of the impact, these fires could be devastating in the fight against climate change. the amazon rain forest, the so-called lungs of the world,

are now filling with smoke. the forest, which accounts for an estimated 20% of the earth's oxygen, is burning. earlier this week, smoke blanketed sao paulo, brazil, the fire so large they can even be seen from space. some blazes have been linked to an increase in deforestation from logging and the rise of industrial farming. to understand the environmental impact -- >> this tower allows us to measure how forests breathe in and out. >> reporter: our vladimir duthiers visited the amazon earlier this year. >> that tree is probably three or four tons of carbon it is storing. >> reporter: what happens if the trees are cut down and the carbon released? >> the carbon goes into the atmosphere and contributes to that. >> reporter: as the fires rage on so does a political battle. the brazilian president jair

bowls leonardo suggested that environmental groups could be responsible for the fires, a claim he later walked back. but the groups and protesters blame him. >> his government is inviting this destructive behavior in the amazon. >> reporter: this is a direct result of the -- >> this is a direct result of the government undermining protections. >> reporter: the dry season in brazil could last until good morning. it's going to be a beautiful weekend and a beautiful friday. let's take a look at what our highs are going to be today. it's going to be in the 90s in those inland areas. cooling off the closer you get to the water. 72 san francisco. you're going to be about the mid 80s in the far north bay as well as the south bay this morning. take a look at our 7-day

how she forgot her baby was in that car. that is a shockingly common answer when these things happen. time and time again the parents say they simply forgot the baby was there. it is something that has turned deadly at least 85 times in the last two years alone. >> i forgot her. i don't know how we forgot her but we just forgot her. >> reporter: this is the moment 37-year-old stacey holly realized she did the unimaginable. >> i honestly don't know how it happened. i don't. i'm freaking out. i'm sorry. i just don't know how it happened. how do you forget your baby? >> reporter: holly forgot her 5-month-old baby daughter inside her car parked in the hot arizona sun while she shopped at a target with her sister and 6-year-old daughter. >> i love you. i'm sorry. i know. i know. i'm sorry. >> reporter: surveillance video shows holly walking inside the store then nearly an hour later she heads back to the car, realizes what's happened, and calls 911. >> you're lucky on this one, man.

forecasters predict an above normal hurricane season which is devastating news for one

community in louisiana that's already disappearing under the water. a small island off the coast has lost more than 90% of its land over the last 60 years. in our eye on earth series, mireya villarreal got a look at the huge challenges facing the islanders. please tell us there is a plan in place to help these people. >> reporter: there is no doubt this island is disappearing quickly. both federal and state governments are stepping in to help resettle the less than 60 people still living there but the project is two years in and not a single family has agreed to move because they just don't trust that this is the right thing to do. the history of isle de-jean-charles is as rich as the oil siphoned from louisiana's gulf coast. once home to hundreds of native american families it's now quickly disappearing and so are the tribes that once lived here. >> you can see the water line right up here. >> reporter: people are still cleaning up after hurricane

barry hit in early july as a weak category 1 storm. >> people are going to need a lot of help to rebuild and stuff. it's just heart breaking. >> reporter: when barry blew through this area the road was completely washed away. all the residents decided not to evacuate had to be rescued by coast guard. the island's natural barriers are being eaten away by intruding salt water from the gulf and the state's levy project protects most of louisiana's southern coast but leaves the island out. why were you guys left out of that? >> we have no idea. >> this is the only business. >> lora ann chiasson belongs to the huma tribe and owns the only business on the island. a grant worth $48 million was awarded to louisiana for a resettlement project to move anyone off the island to a new community nearly 40 miles north but not everyone is happy that this is the only solution. do you feel like there's distrust in how the project is

happening? >> definitely distrust. i mean, you are talking to native people and government and so i've never known them to have a trusting relationship. and it's no different with this project. >> reporter: when you hear people refer to the tribe and also to the island as america's first climate change refugees -- >> that is such an insult. >> reporter: why? >> the word. we're not no refugees. our people have been discriminated over and over again and to say that is just so disrespectful. >> everybody used to live back here. >> people were living back there in the '70s. >> reporter: steve billiot a local shrimper took us out on the bayou and we saw what was once louisiana land. now a lost world surrounded by trees, stuck in the sea like forks. >> this all used to be land. the land is sinking. >> reporter: and this is part of it. this land right here. >> it is. >> reporter: we took the 40 mile trip inland to see the proposed site. pat forbes is the executive

but they can't make improvements or money on them. meanwhile, a storm system could develop in the gulf this weekend bringing half a foot of rain, which could bring more flooding to the isle de-jean-charles. >> it is just so horrible what these people have to face every day. i know a lot of the concern also is on dredging from the oil and gas industry, which is huge there, and that is something that is compounding the climate change problem, too. >> it definitely is. look, we're look ath climate change here, salt water intrusion and rising sea levels. there was a levy project constructed there that leaves them out and that is part of the issue and also the dredging. yes it is compounded on this poor island. >> the clock is ticking for those poor folks. thank you. david begnaud is lookingt ie you'll be talking about today. >> we just got word russia's president wants to respond to a recent u.s. missile test. wildfires are burning in california as thousands of home owners are losing fire insurance. an nba legend got one of america's top honors.

this morning people from people from around the country are expected to gather hampton, virginia, to commemorate a pivotal moment in american history. this month marks 400 years since

the first documented enslaved africans arrived in english north america. the weekend events kick off at the tucker family cemetery, believed to be the burial place of some of the descendants of some of the first enslaved africans to be here. jericka duncan visited that cemetery and the tucker family. how unique is their story? >> very unique. it is rare for african-american families in this country to be able to trace their lineage back to 1619. the tucker family believes it has. the family cemetery is ground zero for where life ended. as we learned, it is also where the story begins. >> reporter: tucked beneath the trees in a quiet neighborhood in hampton, virginia, is a piece of american history that is rarely seen or told like this. >> so we had a ground penetrating radar done, and it went down six feet. >> reporter: what did you find? >> we found over 104 unmarked

graves. >> reporter: those unmarked graves, according to the tucker family, are likely the remains of their relatives who were among the first enslaved africans to arrive in english north america in 1619. colonists john recorded the arrival of 20 and odd negros brought to the shores of the old point comfort, virginia. carolita jones cope said that connects them to captain william tucker, whose plantation was a quarter mile from where the tucker family cemetery lies today. >> captain william tucker was the commander of point comfort, and he kept two of those serve ants, anthony and isabella. in 1624, it lists that anthony and isabella had a child, william, and that he was born and baptized. that was the start of our family

and legacy here in virginia. >>. >> reporter: when you look at this history your family has been able to preserve, what is the significance of knowing where you came from and having the pictures, having the genealogy? >> well, one thing, it's a nice looking family. >> reporter: not bad, not bad. >> not bad, not bad. and to look at the way that they are dressed, they walk with their heads up, you know, with pride, dignity. >> they were smart people. they were strong people. they were hard-working people. and that just gives me so much pride knowing that that's stock that i come from. >> reporter: the tucker family will be featured in a new exhibit honoring the first africans landing at point comfort. the site was later renamed fort monroe. >> when i started off i was just a young man who was looking at this space as a very special space, and i just didn't thi the nation would pay attention.

>> reporter: terry brown is superintendent of fort monroe. why do you think it's finally getting attention? >> well, i think slavery and race is a very difficult subject for this nation, but i want to remind the entire nation that a great country remembers its history and embraces the complexities of it. >> reporter: for the tucker family, connecting back to where they came from means embracing where they are today. >> we are not going anyplace. we are here. this is where we belong because our people helped to make america what it is, regardless of whether they try to push us out or tell you to go back home or whatever it is, we are home. we are home and we are here. >> efforts to commemorate fur hundred years of african-american history have been embraced by the obama and trump administrations. president obama named fort

monroe a national monument in 2011, recognizing this landmark's role in american history, and last year president trump signed a law establishing a 15-member commission to plan, develop, and carry out programs highlighting the contributions of african-americans in this country. >> jericka, were there other people visiting when you were there, or only the tucker family? >> this is an area for those who are visiting for that reason. they know to go to this cemetery. it's 2.2 acres. it is so rare to have a family that has helpd on to this history, to be able to go and find out that there were more bodies than they expected. shout out to tony furlough and dexter lyon, who were the soun photographers. they did an outstanding job. >> that sign that says first africans in virginia looked a little lonely. like it could use some improving. people don't know about the significance, it seems like?

>> i don't think so. i am planning a family reunion this year and there is so much rich history there. you wouldn't know that unless you are educating yourself. a lot of people don't think about 1619 as the start. and i think commemorating this year is very important. >> i love what terry brown at fort monroe said, a great country remembers its history and embraces the complexities of it. >> it is complex. we have to learn from the bad stuff and celebrate what's good. an incredible story for the family to trace its roots so far back before most people got to this country. tell us a little bit about the story of how those africans came to virginia on a ship that was actually bound for another country. >> it was pirated. it sort of ends up here at point comfort, which is now point monroe. this family was so gracious to share their pictures, their documents, and hopefully others will be encouraged to look up their history and maybe give hampton, virginia, some love. >> you should do your family

reunion there. >> i think you guys will be getting an email shortly from me. >> thank you. taylor swift's brand new album dropped overnight. before that she spoke with "cbs sunday morning." next, what she said in that candid interview about the double standards women like her face in the music industry compared to men. you're watching "cbs this morning." before discovering nexium 24hr to treat her frequent heartburn, marie could only imagine enjoying freshly squeezed orange juice. now no fruit is forbidden. nexium 24hr stops acid before it starts

for men and women in the music industry. >> give me an example. >> a man does something, it's strategic. a woman does the same thing, it's calculated. a man is allowed to react, a woman can only overreact. >> and you've had these labels thrown at you. >> oh, yeah. it goes on and on and a man does something confident and bold. a woman does it the same way and she's smug. a man stands up for himself, a woman throws a temper tantrum. >> even before it's released "lover" sold nearly a million interview on "cbs sunday morning" coming up this weekend. ahead, what a cbs and original documentary learned about the pressures facing child bloggers and youtubers. plus how parents should respond. your local news is next. this is a kpix 5 news

to the maze. no stalls or crashes to report but it is slowing you down as you are headed in that commute route. eastbound starting to get a little bit easier as well. we are backed up at the richmond san rafael bridge and it's a slow approach there as well. underneath those sunny skies. once you get halfway across you're in a much better shape. as for the weather you can see it's sunny and beautiful out there with our live traffic camera with our live camera here. you can see just a little bit of that marine layer but that's all going to start to disappear by the afternoon hours with the exception of along the coast. 59 degrees in san francisco. santa rosa 61 degrees. 67 in concord is our warmest temperature at the moment. our highs for the day are going to be in the low 90s in those inland areas. concord 90. 86 in santa rosa. 87 san jose. cooler around the bay and 60s along the coast. it will be a similar story throughout the weekend where it

will be warm inland. mid 70s around the bay and cloudy along the coast.

welcome back to "cbs this morning." time to bring you some of the stories that are the "talk of the table" this morning. >> this is where we pick a story to share with each other and all of you. tony? >> i have a special story for members of fraes if thcongress. they should pay attention. it's about traffic in this country. every major city in america, according to texas a&m who looked into it, has seen their traffic problems get worse in recent decades to the point where they are now saying that rush hour itself is an outdated term. >> no such thing? >> there is no such thing. the roads are so clogged that anytime you try to get on them, you are suffering setbacks. in the last 30 years that the urban mobility report has been tracking this, traffic delays have tripled.

>> my gosh. >> we are now losing annually 54 hours of our productive time sitting in traffic. so why don't i say congress pay attention? the answer according to the report is roads, bridges, infrastructure, infrastructure, infrastructure. >> we have been talking about it a lot. >> there are so many cars on the street. in beijing they have people who can use their car on certain days based on their license plate number. >> americans would rebel if that happened. you're right. it's headed that way. >> back to school time. a new study suggests public school teachers spend an average of $459 on classroom supplies for which they are not reimbursed. this touched a nerve with me because my wife is a teacher. she is a literacy specialist. i spent an hour in a thrift shop with her sitting on the floor combing through kids books. she walked out with 25. too many schools don't have the

money to buy the things they need and the teachers end up buying tm. the head of the american federation of teachers said there is no other profession where workers as a matter of culture and practice are relied upon to subsidize an employer's cost. >> everyone supports education. but then when there is an opportunity to raise your own taxes to fund it, people are like, well, maybe not. >> it's shameful. these people are teaching our kids in that country and they are paying out of pocket to do the best that they can. >> absolutely. education for kids is more important than ever. what do you got? >> somebody in high household really wants a dog. >> this could be the new husband? >> this is the new husband. we just got married. >> your first husband. >> hopefully my last. actually, he will be my last. >> good. >> i know his mom is watching. so, okay -- >> keep moving here. >> yes. so there was a study out by the mayo clinic proceedings that linked cardio vas ca lar health

with owning a dog. if you own a dog, yre morelike activity, better diet, ideal blood sugar levels. there is an argument out there. one of your kids wants a dog, too? >> yes, kids want dogs. >> always. they just don't want to walk them. >> do you have a dog? no, for that very reason. >> it's something to consider if you want to get out more. you have to walk the dog. it encourages outside activities. but experts say you have to keep in mind the welfare of a dog. if you are not going to be home, brian, if you are not able to really take care of the dog, give the dog the attention it needs, it may not be your answer. >> this is your message to your husband? >> did you hear that, brian? >> very good. the growing popularity of so-called kid influencers is raising questions about the potential impact of sharing children's lives online. they promote programs online and

make vlogs. a recent study found one in three american kids between the ages of 8 and 12 aspire to be a vlogger or a youtuber. forbes reports the highest paid youtube star last year was 7-year-old ryan who earned $22 million in 12 months, people. he hosts a toy review channel on the site. kid influencers, few rules, big money. it looks inside the estimated $4.6 billion influencer business. it includes interviews with the families of the young influencers. >> it's a lot of work. a full-time job. it's not really a job because they are having fun. my mom is here because we are shooting on the east coast. she is from the east coast. she comes along. but she is skeptical because it's brand new, like it was for us. >> fourth or
