7:03 am
insurance. >> that's why basketball is my favorite sport. did you see number 14 when he made the shot and it goes in? he's like ah! so good. >> can i say, i love sister jean's rallying cry to loyola. >> sister jean is always very comforting to me. we welcome you here to "cbs this morning." we will begin with miles of devastation in the south from a massive new cluster of tornadoes of extreme weather. take a look at these pictures from lake purdy, just outside birmingham, alabama. at least two dozen twisters were reported across four different states. this is the second week in a row that alabama's been hit by major destructive storms. think about the people there. this time, at least five were killed. omar villafranca is in owe haatchi calhoun county where they died. omar, good morning to you. >> good morning. where i'm standing, this used to be a house but all that's left is debris and pieces of wood and metal and broken trees. the national weather service says at least two dozen storms touched down in the south.
7:04 am
many of them here in alabama. what made things worse, some of the tornadoes spun up in the middle of the night. wave after waft ve spun up duri the night. carolyn woke in time to take cover in the bathroom before the tornado smashed in her birmingham neighborhood. >> i just got in the tub and put the pillows over my head and blanket and just prayed. but i could hear the trees, hear things hitting the house and the house was shaking. >> she survived but her neighborhood was badly damaged. half of her neighbor's roof and wall tossed in her back yard. tornadoes raked across the south, leaving behind extensive damage. dozens of homes reduced to rubble. and lives lost. the calhoun county coroner's office said three of the five people killed here when the tornado struck were family
7:05 am
members s residents tried to quickly clean up the damage during the brief break in the storm. people in tennessee, georgia and alabama are picking up the mess, and sorting through what's left of their homes. for some people in bib county, this was a first. >> i never experienced a storm before in my life this bad. and i did hear, it sounded like a train coming. >> kayla just grateful her family survived. >> the four people i have with me is all i have living in this world. we hunkered down and it missed us by six feet and we're here with god's grace. >> thousands of people in this area are still without power so now that the sun is coming up, they're starting the cleanup process but they will not get a break today because there's a possibility for more storms in the area. >> going to miss think about be missed by six feet. close call, omar. thank you. president biden held his first press conference in office
7:06 am
yesterday. he doubled his goal on vaccine supply, defended his response to the border crisis and addressed new election bills in georgia and other states the democrats called an attack on voting rights. georgia state representative park cannon was arrested last night after knocking on the governor's door dunk the signing ceremony. nancy cordes is at the white house. nancy, what did the president have to say? >> good morning, anthony. the president took questions for about an hour on bipartisan, on voting rights and on the record number of children currently sleeping in overcrowded border patrol facilities. but he made no apologies for changing some of the president trump's border policies. border. president biden insisted it is the cooler winter weather, not his policies, causing a surge in border crossings. >> the time they can travel with the least likelihood of dying on the way because of the heat and the desert number one.
7:07 am
number, two they're coming because of the circumstances in country. >> reporter: some migrants have told cbs that they're coming because they believe president biden will be more lenient. more often they say their motivation is the dangerous situation in their home country. >> the idea that i'm going to say -- which i would never do -- if an unaccompanied child ends up at the border we're going to let them starve to death and stay on the other side -- no previous administration has either except trump. i'm not going to do it. >> reporter: mr. biden grew fire when he asked about republican efforts in states like georgia to restrict voting. >> it's sick. it's sick. >> reporter: republicans in at least 43 states are pursuing changes they claim are necessary to protect election security. democrats say the measures will make voting more difficult, especially for their base.
7:08 am
minorities and young voters. are you worried that if you don't manage to pass voting rights legislation that your party is going to lose seats and possibly lose control of the louse and the senate in 2022? >> what i'm worried about is how un-american this whole initiative is. this makes jim crow look like jim eagle. this is gigantic what they're trying to do. >> reporter: hours after he said that in a closed door ceremony, georgia governor brian kemp signed sb 202, a voting law that critical is have called voter suppression. outside governor kemp's office, georgia state troopers arrested state representative park cannon after she knocked on the office door asking for access. >> are you serious? >> no, you are not -- >> no. she's not under arrest. for what? under arrest for what?
7:09 am
>> reporter: people who were there to protest the voter law demanded to know why cannon was being detained. >> give me a reason why you're arresting her. >> reporter: if a statement, georgia state patrol said cannon was repeatedly asked to stop knocking on the door and disturbing what was going on inside. they say she was warned she would be arrested if she did not stop. >> all we want is for her to see a bill that is signing our rights away. >> reporter: cannon wawas charg with obstruction of law enforcement and preventing or disrupupting general assembly sessions for other meetings of memembers. senator raphael warnock, also as pastor, was at the jail when she was released hours later. >> this is democracy in reverse. rather than the people being able to choose
7:10 am
>> as for the president's own political future, i asked him whether he plans to run for re-election in 2024. he said yes, that is his intention. tony, on another issue, gun control, interestingly, he declined to give any kind of timeline on his plans to introduce proposals. he said he's going one priority at a time and the next priority up is infrastructure. >> nancy, thank you very much. let's talk about that georgia voting law. here's what's in the law that was signed by governor kemp yesterday. for mail-in absentee voting, you will now need an i.d. number which would be a driver's license or state i.d. that replaces signature checking. the law limits the use of ballot dropboxes, including the number of dropboxes is nech county. it's now a misdemeanor to hand out food and beverages in voting lines -- and some of those lines can be long, mind you. despite some of the restrictions, it actually expands early in-person voting
7:11 am
for primy and general elections. let's go to cbs news law expert david becker in on this. you have been following these election laws. what's your take on this one? >> good morning, tony. it's important to note first that all of these efforts in the states like georgia are based on the big lie, based on the lie the election lacked integrity when in fact this was the most secure and transparent election we ever had. the rush to pass these laws does raise concerns. president biden was absolutely right yesterday when he called the effort anti-american. but this particular law as it ended up was kind of a mixed bag. as you to pointed out, there are things in there that are bad and there are things in there that are not so bad. for instance, there are limits on the ability of third parties to give people who are waiting in line food and water. there are limits on dropbox locations and dropbox availability to drop a mail ballot off.
7:12 am
the driver's license number requirement on a mail ballot is actually -- it could be a net good. it's very similar to what they do in minnesota. it means they don't have to check signatures anymore, which could mean fewer ballots get rejected, particularly because georgia has a very good automated -- automatic voter registration system. and it also -- go ahead. >> i was going to say, david, in the weeks leading up to the passing and signing by governor kemp, there were major concerns about the restrictive aspects of te law that did not make it in. what are those? >> there were at least three big things that didn't make it into the law that i think it's great that they weren't in the law. one is a rollback of the ought moated voter registration system. there's also significant rollback proposed about mail voting. that's not in the law. there are still ample opportunity for ballot options in georgia. finally, there's really
7:13 am
difficult-to-understand limitations around early voting, specifically around weekend days, sunday days, when african-american churches push voters out to go souls to the polls. that's not in the bill, currently. early voting is expanded in the current bill with two saturdays and options for sundays as well. >> david, as a matter of fact, this is a solution in search of a problem. there's not widespread fraud in this country or in the state of georgia, and yet we have 43 states pursuing similar restrictions on voting. what does this passage in georgia mean to the other efforts? >> well, i think we're going to be keeping an eye on some laws in other states, particularly states like arizona and texas and even florida, where mostly republicans actually are passing laws trying to restrict voting, trying to roll back things that will be in place for decades that voters like and actually lead to integrity. their early voting, mail voting, it helps election integrity. gives you an early warning
7:14 am
system if there's a problem. so states should be really looking for ways to expand the franchise and let people vote conveniently over a great number of days. it's unfortunate to see states trying to roll back those measures in this kind of rushed environment based on an entire lie. >> i think turnout would be something all americans can root for. david becker, thank you very much. the university of southern california has agreed to a record payout by a university to settle sexual abuse claims. we learned yesterday that usc agreed to pay $852 million in a case involving more than 700 alleged victims of the school's gynecologists. its users claim usc knew for decades about the complaints against george tyndall but failed to remove him. usc's president said she's deeply sorry for the pain and hopes the resolution provides some relief. audrey nassinger said she was one of tyndall's first victims when he allegedly abused her
7:15 am
during an exam. >> they're a very powerful institution, usc, and the fact that they didn't care and threw us to the wolves is so disgusting. >> he faces 35 criminal accounts of alleged sexual misconduct between 2009 and 2016. he pleaded not guilty and is free on bond. the suspect in the deadly shooting in boulder, colorado, has been in court for the first time. al aliwi alissa was brought in court in a wheelchair and spoke only once to acknowledge the charges. his defense attorney immediately requested a mental health evaluation. this comes as we learn more about the ten victims of that attack, including 61-year-old kevin mahoney. he was a father of two. his daughter erica shared this photo from her wedding. our lead national correspondent david begnaud spoke to the mahoneys in boulder. >> this is how the world first found out kevin mahoney was killed, when his daughter erica posted this photo on twitter
7:16 am
that has now gone viral saying, my dad represents all things love. i'm so thankful he could walk me down the aisle. >> that expression he has in faces that i have seen my whole life and that represent so much pride but also holding back tears. >> why did you pick that photo? >> we knew he was gone but if there was a moment i could share with the world that captured who he was and also my relationship with him, it was that moment. >> how would you describe your husband's love for your daughter? >> kevin is a sweet soul. at that moment in time, he embraced the feeling and reflected in his faice towards his daughter. he loved to ski, he loved to hike, he loved to travel. announced her father's death, she revealed that she was pregnant with the first grandchild of the family. >> this little baby girl is
7:17 am
what's getting us through this time because like i can feel her kick, and every kick is telling me to be strong. and of course my dad even though this is so devastating and so strong. >> kevin mahoney was survived by his daughter and son. he was doing the shopping for his family because he didn't want his wife have to do it in the middle of the pandemic so he did it. he was shopping right over this fence, doing what we all do in america. we don't think twice. we go shopping. and he died doing it. >> we never think twice about it. that's why this is so hard. i heard stories about someone just going to buy mushrooms and when i look at the mahoney picture, i'm so struck at erika's expression, the way she's looking at her dad, honestly, it gets me every time i see it. you look at her face and then you look at his and you can see the bond between the two of
7:18 am
them. it's a lot. to know now a granddaughter is coming, i'm so glad that is still going to proceed in their life. it's just -- this is very tough, david. very tough. >> they wanted to speak, gayle. >> i'm glad. i'm glad they did. nice to get to know them. thank you, david begnaud. coming up in our next hour -- what david learned when he sat down with survivors and people personally affected by three different mat shootings in colorado, including the
7:19 am
border patrol. test.
7:20 am
ahead we'll take you to ellis island, the point of entry for millions of americans, to find out what was so different about immigration then compared to immigration now. one surprising discovery before 1924, there were no strict national rules. nearly everyone who showed up got in, including a member of my own family. makes you think about what the right way in really is.

welcome back to welcome back to "cbs this morning." the surge in people arriving at our southern border comes as the biden administration hopes to overall an immigration system described for years as broken. the number of foreign-born people in america has quadrupled since the 1960s and at least 11 million are here without documentation. under the biden plan, many of them would now qualify for a path to citizenship and that is stirring a fresh debate about what america represents and who america is for. is for. some of us remember every detail about how our families arrived
7:31 am
here. >> i came in a raft. escaped from cuba in a raft 29 years ago. >> moved to u.s. as a refugee. >> from australia to los angeles and no problems. >> reporter: for others, the stories have been told and retold through generations. >> my great grandfather was a stonecutter from italy. >> my family originally is from spain. >> my oma and opa are from germany, and they came over through ellis island. >> for families like these, the legal details may be a little fuzzy. do you remember what the rules were, what the process was like back then? >> only from what i've read. they didn't talk about it much. >> i'm not sure. >> i don't know about that. >> the fact is if you're one of the tens of millions of americans who can trace their ancestors to early settlers or later arrivals through ellis island, there's a good reason you can't remember the national rules back then -- there were none. >> we just showed up. you didn't need a passport, you
7:32 am
didn't need a visa. there's no such thing as a green card. if there's no restrictions, everybody's legal. >> mae ngai is a history professor at columbia university. she says prior to the first immigration act in 1924 almost everyone who made it to america got to stay in america. 98% of people who pass through ellis island were allowed in. as i discovered on a recent trip, one of those arrivals was my own great grandfather. >> w a researcher showed how he came from italy in a situation not so different from the border stories we hear today. wow. >> he was young. >> he was young and alone. >> unaccompanied minor. >> unaccompanied minor. >> unaccompanied minor, right. did he become a citizen? >> he did. he became ape citizen, fought in world war i, his children fought in world war ii. it ends up what people call a classic american story. >> right.
7:33 am
>> it makes me think what are the important differences if any between him in the early 20th century and that same 15-year-old on the border today. >> right. color of their skin. >> in her book "impossible subjects," she writes about the little-known and uncomfortable origins of our national immigration policy which began with quotas that favored immigrants from predominantly white european nations. >> kind of pure american. and it's absolutely white. >> in fact, when those more favored european immigrants entered the country illegally, exceeding or avoiding the quotas entirely, they were very often forgiven. between 1925 and 1965, at least 200,000 undocumented europeans were given a path to citizenship according to ngai's research. >> the mindset was one of if you're here, if you are making a contribution to society, we're
7:34 am
not just going throw you out. >> reporter: most people still seem to agree. polls show three quarters of americans support a path to citizenship. but for decades, both democrats and republicans have failed to find one. >> we don't have enough resources. >> reporter: we heard again and again that america just can't handle this new wave of immigration. >> because we're overcrowded already. >> i don't think it's right, and i think they're taking people's jobs away. and if they're illegal, they shouldn't be let in. >> reporter: but on the way to ellis island, we also met alex barraza whose parents brought him here from mexico as an infant. >> it was dangerous because they had to cross to el paso, texas. >> reporter: he hadn't realized that many families like my own arriving through ellis island were at one point as undocumented as his parents. did you know millions before the 1920s also had no documents? >> i didn't know that. >> reporter: do you think it's fair that the people who came through this building could come
7:35 am
with no paperwork and not live in fear? be welcomed in? and your parents are in a different situation. >> i don't think it's fair. >> reporter: now he can only hope that eventually families like his who came with much the same dreams will also be welcomed much the same as americans. >> they wanted to see us happy, just to live a life of freedom. and -- it's hard. it's hard because they came here to live a better life. but like i don't see the difference between us and them. >> so i actually have an important clarification and an update which is sad. so the clarification is that the exception to the generally open border policy of america to the 1920s is the chinese exclusion act of 1882 which set asian americans in general on this path of otherness that continues to this day. and overnight in fact, professor
7:36 am
ngai, chinese american, the professor in our piece, emailed to say that she was the victim of what she believes is a hate act. she was targeted. rammed on the streets of new york. she describes it as sudden, aggressive, and over in a flash. she says it was clearly opportunistic. if i'd had pepper spray or a two by four, it wouldn't have been quick enough. i was lucky but how do we defend ourselves? >> when was that? >> last night. rammed. with other people. she's the one targeted. she feels singled out. and i think what it all points to is the way the definition of an american, a true american has been written into our laws over time. and the way it's now part of our culture and the way some people see the world. we have to learn a new way to go forward together. >> yeah. we can't -- we've been trying to underline this in recent days. but how fearful many asian americans are about just this thing happening. it's happening all over. >> i think about asian americans, i think about black
7:37 am
americans, how we got to this country is not pretty either. >> no. >> it's very complicated. and very layered. i'm very sorry to hear about the professor. >> yeah. >> she okay? >> she's okay. she's shaken. >> of course she is. >> of course she is. >> puts a fine point on these things. >> you can always get the morning's news by subscribing to the "cbs this morning" podcast. hear the top stories in less than 20 minutes. next, how engineers plan to move a massive cargo ship stuck sideways in the suez canal, and what this blockage could mean for trade with the u.s. we'll be right back. i'i'm david cocollado i chosose the sparark cash cad fromom capital o one. cause i eaearn unlimitited 2% cash back k on everyththing i . last yeaear i redeememed $21,0 in casash back whicich i used for new w equipment,t, to expand d productionon. what's's in your w wallet? when i i get a migigraine, i hide in n the dark.. bubut then i f found nurtetec. don'n't take if f allergic to nururtec.

it is here, friday, march 26th, 2021. we welcome you back to "cbs this morning." i'm gayle king. that's tony dokoupil. that's anthony mason. sharing the morning." i'm gayle king we'll talk to survivors and relatives from three colorado tragedies including the latest one in boulder sn boulder. the busiest airport in america. and the ncaap image awards for the eighth time anthony andersen host. he'll say how it feels different this year in a time of upheaval. >> first, here's today's "eye
8:01 am
opener". miles of devastation in the south from a massive cluster of tornadoes and extreme weather. look at the pictures. >> the two dozen storms touched down. some of the tornadoes spun up in the middle of the night. >> we're told kevin didn't want his wife to have to worry about doing the shopping in the middle of the pandemic so he'd do it. why did you pick that photo? >> if there was a moment i could share with the world, that captured who he was, and also my relationship with him. it was that moment. >> reporter: >> the president took questions for about an hour. but he made no apologies for changing some of president trump's border policies. >> there's a new soft drink just in time for easter. pepsi is teaming up with peeps to launch this pepsi by peeps beverage. >> i don't work in marketing, but i do feel like if it's a combination of peeps and pepsi,
8:02 am
should it not just be called peepsi? >> yes. >> very good, james corden. and you've got to apply online to get it. they have a contest and you have -- >> have you applied? >> i do like peeps, yes, i do. i like pepsi too. so maybe. maybe, anthony mason. help, tony. help. >> this is not the last word on the peeps, pepsi combo, but we'll begin with a serious note. a wave of deadly weather that tore through the south. look at this drone video showing the massive devastation in alabama just outside of birmingham. that was one of the hardest hit areas. tornadoes and extreme weather damaged or destroyed dozens of homes and killed at least five people. search and rescue efforts are underway and we are in calhoun, county, alabama where the people
8:03 am
were killed. what's it looking like as daybreaks, omar? >> reporter: now that we're getting sun, they're getting a bet picture of the damage. there used to be a home here. this national weather service says at least two dozen tornadoes touched down in the south. mostly in alabama. and one actually touched down here where we're at. and it killed four people. look at the destruction. homes reduced to piles of wood. three members of the same family among the dead. yesterday we were in birmingham, west of here. trees were snapped like twigs and homes levelled. i spoke with one homeowner whose house was badly damaged. >> i had a metal garbage can. i said let me run to my utility room. i put the garbage can over my head, i stayed no more than two minutes. i came out, i couldn't believe it.
8:04 am
it went so fast. >> it did happen fast. another, no reports of any injuries in the other one. the national weather service says a tornado went through shelby and tall day ga counties and may have been on the ground for about 100 miles. >> wow. >> that's hard to imagine. >> that's incredible. thank you very much. immigration, the pandemic and whether he'll run for reelection. those are some of the topics president biden addressed during his first news conference since taking office. the president announced a new goal of 200 million covid vaccine shots in his first 100 days which doubles his previous goal. he also discussed the surge of migrants at the border. he said despite record numbers of unaccompanied minors in u.s. custody, he will not leave them to fend for themselves. >> the idea that i'm going to
8:05 am
say, which i would never do, if an unaccompanied child ends audiotape the border, we're going to let them starve to death and leave them on the other side. i'm not going to do it. >> he said. the massive covid vaccine rollout is requiring the use of big a spaces. delta partnered with the state of georgia to create free vx sites inside in atlanta international airport, one of the busiest in the country. more than 3 million doses were administered across georgia including 39,000 people at the airport. we got an exclusive look inside the airport site and joins us from delta's nearby museum. wherever you can get the shots, let's do that. good morning to you. >> reporter: that's the idea,
8:06 am
gayle. good morning. any other year this would be the main attraction. right? visitors wanting to get up close to the spirit of delta. now that's a bonus in one of three locations the airline is using to get the life-saving shots in the arm to employees and the general public. >> follow me. >> reporter: after 36 years as a pilot, captain bill barns knows the importance of punctuality. >> this is quick and convenient. >> this delta veteran is among thousands of airline and airport staff getting vaccinated inside hartsville jackson concord gate c. check in to a number system and the long awaited shots. airport employee roderick jackson got vaccinated while working. he says the benefits are immense. >> i'm afraid of the other animals. i'm not afraid of this. the other end is death.
8:07 am
why would you not want something to give you more of an opportunity, a chance at life? >> outside in the shadow of an old 747, delta's providing even more space for any georgian to get vaccinated. sherry runs this operation, the state's busiest outdoor vaccination site. >> so we're averaging right now about 2200 doses a day. and starting monday we'll go 3,000 doses a day. and currently we're right around 39,000 total doses in about five weeks. >> reporter: how long can you keep this up? >> a minimum of 13 weeks we'll be here and that might be extended depending on what the governor says. >> reporter: delta's first chief health officer. >> i think we're ready to reclaim our lives and our joy. and we'll get there by ending this pandemic with the vaccination. >> reporter: and for most, the step toward joy took mere minutes. >> i may have been here eight minutes. >> reporter: eight minutes isn't even a lunch break.
8:08 am
>> that's what i'm saying. it's a bathroom break. >> reporter: look, delta won't say what this costs but certainly it cannot get back to a full schedule until everyone is vaccinated. there is some self-interest here, but i can tell you beyond the joy that i'm seeing, and all the locations, there's another measurement of how well things are going. the man who runs the state's emergency agency told me that he received a complement he's proud of. even the home grown food chain chick-fil-a would be proud of the efficiency happening here. >> that's a high bar. thank you. i'm curious. i happen to be a delta diamond member. how did delta get involved in this and not another airline? >> reporter: well, here's the deal. this is delta's hub and base. and the state reached out to an organization that could provide the space needed to vaccinate so many people. the head of state's emergency agency said they needed to connect with an operational expert. delta knows how to run things.
8:09 am
so that still set and that partnership is now resulting in roughly 40,000 doses administered already, and there's no plans to stop this any time soon. >> all right. >> that's a great shot. >> thank you very much. >> that's a great shot behind you. i love the shot of the plane, and it shows they know what they're doing. i'm fascinated by the guy with the eight minute bathroom. what are you doing in the bathroom for eight minutes? >> it's a combination of pepsi and peeps is all i'll say. >> okay. >> okay. a kidnapping in colorado more than 35 years ago. >> 48 hours. a former candidate for governor of idaho is arrested on charges of kidnapping and killing a 12-year-old girl. wait until you see why police say he did it. that's
8:10 am
8:11 am
a survivor of the boulder, colorado, mass shooting says a simple choice may have saved his life. >> and a moment before i made a decision to not get ice cream. and that would have put me right in the path of the shooter. so just a stupid random choice to get potato chips instead meant all the difference. >> wow. coming up, our conversation with him and two others who were personally affected by different mass shootings in colorado. how they'r all coping, and their words of support for each other. you're watching "cbs this

as the investigation into the mass shooting in colorado continues, it's hard to truly understand the shock and the grief that survivors are feeling. we spoke with three people in the state who know that pain all too well. zac cartaes survived the shooting at columbine high school in 1999. he was just 17 years old at the time and hid in a classroom. heather dearman's cousin was hurt during the aurora movie theater shooting in 2012, and her cousin's young daughter was
8:17 am
killed. and ryan barowski was indiana king soopers grocery store on monday when he heard the gunshots. our lead national correspondent david begnaud met with them at a bark -- a
8:18 am
anded third shot i knew was
8:19 am
gefr. >> i can't imagine i'm hearing things again and that heme have to go about their regular daily lives having to worry about getting shot at and i'm still in shock. i was just at the memorial before i came here. >> what happened to your dada? >> it was a big hug waiting for you there when you're ready. there are so many people there, so many people putting flowers, praying. >> what do you want to happen now? >> i want everybody to take responsibility for themselves, from the bottom, and i want the government to do some common sense stuff from the top. they know what that is. >> heather, i see you shaking your head. >> i don't want to be pessimistic, but i lost all hope back in 2012 after we had just laid a 6-year-old to rest and in october and then just two months later sandy hook happened and then after nothing happened after that, i stopped listening.
8:20 am
i stopped paying attention. it has to go back to starting from just you as a person, just being kind to one another and treating people like human beings. >> is counting on kindness enough? >> it is not but our hope is all we have. >> i have hope. i'm also terrified. i have hope because over the past few years i have learned so many self-care techniques, starting with meditation and yoga and i'm a massage therapist, but i've also wanted to kill myself before, so, um, i'm either hopeful to have my struggles with that feeling have prepared me for future feelings and that i can always remain
8:21 am
curious about the future enough to get to the next wave, whatever it feels like. >> i'm so proud of you. i believe in you. it is going to be up and down, and i hate to even think it, but the next time this happens, it is going to take you right back to where it is. but just go back to your grounding, i mean, love your family. >> should i leave the country? >> right. >> you're asking that seriously? >> yeah, he is. >> we've thought about it before. there are a lot of parts about this country that are absolutely wonderful, but there are other parts that are hard to tolerate. >> and what i identify to you, is the helpless become the helpers. you'll find something beautiful in yourself, too. as a result of something so terrible, you'll find something beautiful in yourself. find that beauty in yourself and let that helplessness make you a
8:22 am
helper. >> you know, ryan, who survived the boulder shooting said i wan my car. it had been kept inside of the crime scene here at the grocery store and he said i wanted to rescue myself and i said well what do you mean. it is one thing that you could do inside of your car, you could scream as loud as you want because he said that is not something that you could doo around your loved ones. gayle. >> david, my heart goes out to ryan. number one, you could still feel his pain, really appreciate his candor in this conversation with you. thank you. thank you so much. i like what zack said to ryan, that the helpless become the helper, you could see clearly he's still struggling with it and what others said, the next time it happens, because we all know there is a next time you could see how triggering this is for everybody who has been through this. >> and you could see how much heather is still struggling. >> thinking it will happen again. >> it makes no sense. we'll be right back. it will hap again.

welcome back to this morning welcome back to "cbs this morning" this morning. and tony is going first. >> i'm talking about a deal that has been reached to legalize recreational marijuana in new york state. recreational is such a funny word for marijuana. it sounds like ping pong. sticking points remain. they struck a deal to allow adults 21 and over to buy, sell and consume cannabis. the agreement calls for a percentage of the tax revenue to be reinvested into minority communities every year. these are communities that were hardest hit by the war on drugs.
8:31 am
this cannabis market in new york is estimated to be, get this, $4.6 billion. supposed to be voted on next week and if approved, this is also surprising, new york will be the 15th state to allow use of recreational marijuana. a weird word. >> that is a lot of money goes back into communities, tax revenue, if that is how big the market is. >> in the beginning this moving i was skeptical and i thought it would be overmarketed and i'm impressed the way that states have run it in a way that takes it out of the criminal justice system and doesn't plaster it on every billboard in the city. >> i've never tried it, and people say step outside of your box. >> you're drinking too much peeps pepsi. >> no, never. mine is about this. many people have been asking what is the next chapter for o, the oprah magazine, it is called oprah daily, the site went live
8:32 am
yesterday morning at 6:00 a.m. oprah's life work has been to inspire all of us to live our best lives and in her welcome message, she talked about what to expect from the new oprah daily platform. >> a new destination with thoughtful digital story telling, a quarterly print he had ilgs -- edition where you c connect live with me and all things in the oprah universe. with oprah daily, my hope is that you will take the time out of your day, how little time is required, just to give something back to yourself, every single day, to connect, to listen, to celebrate yourself and what matters most to you. here's to not just living your best life, but living it well. >> living it well. for oprah living well means getting a covid vaccine. she shares what it was like for her. she got the moderna, by the way.
8:33 am

i have been there for the last eight years an hopefully i'll be there for a little while longer. >> could we talk about blash-ish for a second. because both clips that we ran, everybody was cracking up because that is what the show does, but it is so relatable and relevant, you tackle mental health and police brutality and talk about everyday life, what is it about this show and how do you navigate that because right now we're living in dicey, troubled waters. >> well the creator of the show and my partner, we both had a vision when we sat down and conceived this together. but it is been doing what it is doing because of the authenticity of which we tell the stories and our writers and our executive producers led by courtney lit courtney littlely, they hit on the social topics in a comedic way that doesn't beat the audience over the head but gets

and d keep the p public safe. this week, "48 hours" investigates the kidnapping and murder of a girl in colorado more than 35 years ago. jonelle mathews of just 12 when she disappeared in 1984. the case remained cold for decades until her body was discovered in 2019 and police began to question a new suspect. "48 hours" correspondent richard schlesinger looks at how the suspect came to the attention of investigators. >> reporter: on july 23rd, 2019, a crew digging a pipeline near greeley, colorado, discovered what appeared to be human remains. gloria and jim matthews had

spent nearly 35 years wondering what happened to their 12-year-old daughter jonelle. >> everywhere we went, i was always looking for her. >> reporter: it was 1984, just five days before christmas, when jonelle vanished from the matthews' home. the only physical evidence discovered by police were a stranger's shoe prints all right in the snow. shoe prints someone tried to erase using a garden rake. >> right out of my garage. >> reporter: it wasn't until 2019 that police were suddenly questioning a person of interest hundreds of miles away. >> i humbly ask for your vote -- >> reporter: a former candidate for sheriff and governor in the state of idaho and a onetime rea resident of greeley steven pankey. >> we had never heard the name before that. >> reporter: he said the same to cbs affiliate knvt. >> i had never met jonelle
8:45 am
matthews. >> reporter: but it points to statements indicating pankey by paykey himself. he allegedly volunteered without being asked what he claimed were details about when jonelle died. he told police not to give the family hope, and he drew up a list of persons of interest with his own name on it. >> he's a talkative guy, but he's not a murderer. >> reporter: pankey's defense attorney, anthony viorst, says his client is a true crime fan who simply craves attention. >> mr. pankey wanted to be a person of interest. mr. pankey could have laid low, nobody would ave charged him. mr. pankey loves the limelight. >> and richard schlesinger joins us now. this is a shocker. good morning. what's the best evidence that police have against richard pankey? >> well, the only physical evidence that we know of is that collection of footprints in the snow outside the house. the police never mentioned that to the public.
8:46 am
but the indictment in this case alleges that pankey told police about the rake and the footprints, and they're wondering how he would have known that. so we should say the defense lawyer has an answer for that. but you know, that's going to be a big issue at trial. >> the talkative part i'm sure was not particularly helpful to mr. pankey. richard schlesinger, thank you so much. you can watch "the kidnapping of jonelle matthews" on "48 hours" tomorrow at 10:00, 9:00 central here on cbs. we'll be right back. this is a a no-nonsensnse messe from t three. smalall businessss insurance usualllly forces y you to piecece togetherr multipiple policieies. that's whyhy three wasas creat. it's onene policy ththat coves everytything you n need... leavaving those e old policis in t the dust. three.e. no nonsenense. jujust common n sense.
