3:12 am
something that i had such an innocent pure love for since i was a little girl. and that was taken from me. >> reporter: previously unreported incidents between former coach christy holly and a player describe how he invited her to watch game footage and instead showed her pornography and touched her inappropriately. the u.s. soccer president today called the report heartbreaking and promised action, including creating an office to handle allegations of misconduct and implementing background checks for all u.s. soccer staff. norah. >> absolutely sickening. nibathk you. well, overseas now to ukraine, tonight, president zelenskyy says ukrainian forces have retaken more territory in the eastern regions that russia has illegally annexed. this as cbs news has learned a new u.s. aid package will include more advanced rocket systems that have been key to ukraine's recent advances. cbs' charlie d'agata is in southern ukraine.
3:13 am
>> reporter: ukrainian tanks take up position, holding the line in recaptured territory in eastern ukraine, reinforcements after russian troops were forced to retreat from the strategic town of lyman. ukraine's president thanking his warriors saying the successes of our soldiers are not limited to lyman. a reference to lightning advances in the south, this video said to show soldiers raising the flag in a retaken village toward kherson. but after president putin's illegal annexation on friday, many here are bracing for a massive escalation, including the exiled mayor of russian-held malitupol. >> i expect putin to use nuclear weapons. >> reporter: you do? >> yes. i expect it. >> reporter: his forces have already stepped up attacks on
3:14 am
civilian targets. take a look at this crater. it's not exactly clear what the intended target was, but a massive russian missile completely destroyed a home in this residential neighborhood. neighbors tell us a grandmother, a mother, and two small children were killed as they slept. the world may be getting used to scenes like these, not if you lived in this neighborhood, where two school kids went to sleep, unaware of what the night would bring. there are more explosions here in dnipro overnight and this morning. yet, tonight, ukrainian forces are on the move. and there's a real sense of momentum as they claw back russian-held territory. norah. >> charlie d'agata, thank you so much for your reporting. the war in ukraine is just ones intelligence agency is closely monitoring.arrs at
3:15 am
langley to speak with director william burns and asked him if putin is concerned about the advances ukraine's military is making as hundreds of thousands flee russia. >> it's got to be a concern, not just about what's happening on the battlefield in ukraine, what's happening at home, and what's happening internationally. you know, he stood next to xi jinping last february just before the war started and they proclaimed a friendship without limits. well, it turns out that friendship has some limits, too. the chinese have controlled their enthusiasm for russia's conduct of this war. they haven't provided the kind of military support that putin had been looking for as well. so he's got to be troubled by what he sees. but he's also stubbornly confident in his own judgments. he believes he's tougher than anybody else. >> you make it sound like he is more dangerous. >> putin cornered, putin who feels like his back is against the wall, can be quite dangerous and reckless, and we saw, you know, the flawed assumptions he's made before the war. i think he's basing his approach now on equally flawed
3:16 am
assumptions where's he thinks he can toh it out with the ukrainians and with the united states and with the west. >> how closely is china watching what's happening in ukraine? >> oh, i think president xi is watching what's happening in ukraine like a hawk. i think he's been sobered, to some extent, by the poor performance of the russian military. the chinese leadership is also looking at what happens when you stage an invasion and the people you're invading resist with a lot of courage and tenacity as well. so i think all of that has been sobering and in some ways unsettling for the chinese leadership. >> you mean it could sober president xi's ambitions with taiwan? >> i think it could. president xi insists today that while he is firmly committed to unification-- in other words to achieving control over taiwan-- that his preference is to pursue means to achieve that short of the use of force. but he's also instructed his military, we know, to be prepared no later than 2027 to
3:17 am
conduct a successful invasion of taiwan. so the reality, at least as we see it, is that the further you get into this decade, the greater the risks rise of a potential conflict. >> and you can see more of our interview with director burns on cbsnews.com. across town here in washington, the supreme court's new term got under way today. justice ketanji brown jackson made her debut as the first black woman to sit on the nation's highest court. the new term will include a number of big issues, including voting rights, l.g.b.t.q. rights, and affirmative action. now to a disturbing story out of stockton, california. police are on the lookout for a possible serial killer after multiple deadly shootings since july. cbs' carter evans has the details. >> reporter: the crime scene where 54-year-old lawrence lopez sr. was gunned down marks the latest in a string of murders that stockton police now think are all related. >> you could probably very well call this serial killings. >> reporter: chief stanley
3:18 am
mcfadden says all of the victims are men who were ambushed and shot, but not robbed. none of the murders were caught on surveillance cameras. >> we have no evidence to tell us that it's one person, two or three. >> reporter: investigators released this grainy image, a person of interest, possibly the suspect, or just a witness. the murders were all committed in dimly lit areas, the victims between the ages of 21 and 54, all but one are hispanic. a sister of one of the victims too afraid to show her face on camera. >> i hope the son of a ( bleep ) rots in hell. i hope that he gets caught. >> reporter: the first victim was 35-year-old paul yaw. his mother says investigators gave her some details. >> he was walking with somebody, the person turned towards him, or faced him-- whatever-- and shot him multiple times. >> reporter: all of it leaving a community in fear. >> everybody's on edge lately because now people are just afraid of coming outside. >> reporter: stockton police tell us they're increasing
3:19 am
patrols in the area, with more officers working late night and early-morning hours. the a.t.f. and the f.b.i. are also assisting with the investigation. and now there is a $95,000 reward for information leading to an arrest. norah. >> carter evans, thanks very much. >> well, changes could soon be coming to the n.f.l.'s concussion protocols after yet another high-profile player is injured. are you feeling sluggish or weighed down? metamucil's new fiber plus collagen can help. when taken daily, it supports your health, starting with your digestive system. metamucil's plant-based fiber forms a gel to trap and remove the waste that weighs you down, helps lower cholesterol and promotes healthy blood sugar levels. while its collagen peptides help support your joint structures. so, start feeling lighter and more energetic by taking metamucil every day. try metamucil fiber gummies made with a prebiotic, plant-based fiber blend that helps promote digestive health. want to wake up to smoother, brighter skin day 1?

3:33 am
evacuation order work? and should it have been issued sooner? >> we got that message out at the right time. now, whether people listened to it, we can't force people out of their homes. but we can continuously say, "look, mandatory evacuation." >> reporter: today, president biden toured damage from a different hurricane, two weeks after fiona crippled puerto rico's power grid. he pledged $60 million to help in the recovery. >> i'm determined to help puerto rico build faster than in the past and stronger and better prepared for the future. >> reporter: monday, many coastal counties in florida began issuing evacuation orders. fort myers beach that morning started encouraging its residents to get out. by monday night, the town posted on its social media the risk was so great, people needed to evacuate, even though lee county wouldn't make an evacuation decision until tuesday morning. when lee county finally did, it

3:50 am
doesn't mean you should do it. >> bet up to $1,000. >> reporter: but ironically, it's the cost of all this promotion that could ultimately slow it down. most sports books are spending more on marketing than they're bringing in. a gamble that will leave just a couple big winners. many of the companies now taking bets just like the people placing them will eventually be out of cash. uncassville, connecticut. >> the "cbs overnight news" will be right back. want to wake up to smoother, brighter skin day 1? olay retinol 24 recharges my skin while i sleep. no wonder it was awarded best night cream! night mode...activated. olay. face anything.

4:03 am
that is a fishing boat on top of an s.u.v. and perhaps somewhere in all of this mess, people. tonight, new images of the devastation near fort myers beach as search-and-rescue teams sift through the widespread destruction. going door to door looking for survivors, or those who perished in the storm. >> fire department! >> reporter: the city's mayor says perhaps more than two dozen remain unaccounted for. >> lifting up holi ru, listg, sending hat theytr ortehrloga lyons rode out the storm on his boat. the 65-year-old and his load of shrimp came out unscathed. the next time a hurricane's coming, would you think about riding it out on the boat? >> no, no. i wouldn't even ride it out on land. if they say evacuate, i'm going to evacuate. >> reporter: but as residents struggle to pick up the pieces, there is mounting criticism over the decision not to issue an evacuation order for lee county
4:04 am
until tuesday, the day before ian made landfall. that's despite warnings they were in the storm's path since friday. today, the sheriff defended the county's response. you said 800 rescues, which is a huge number. it raises the question, did the evacuation order work? and should it have been issued sooner? >> we got that message out at the right time. now, whether people listened to it, we can't force people out of their homes. but we can continuously y, ook," >> reporter: today, president biden toured damage from a in t recovery. >> i'm determined to h nd songer and better he prepared for the future. >> reporter: monday, many coastal counties in florida began issuing evacuation orders. fort myers beach that morning started encouraging its

soon becomes clear. but it's by air that you get the full scope of ian's wrath. block after block of sanibel island with roofs blown off, homes damaged or destroyed. the scenes here on sanibel island are almost apocalyptic. you don't see a soul-- trees knocked down, sand all over the streets. one of the few people we ran into were luke jankauskas and his brother who returned to check on their house. what are you seeing? >> man, the devastation is unreal, you know. it's just-- it's kind of sad to see. >> reporter: more than 200 households remained as ian crossed over sanibel island. so far, almost 500 people have been rescued, including lacy mcclary, a local artist, who was airlifted to safety. >> i thought this-- we need to make peace. this may be the time. but god, please, save all of us. >> reporter: she recorded the storm as it created a wind tunnel in her friend's house as they rode it out. today, she asked us to check on her house.

this is the "cbs overnight news". >> we want to turn now to a scathing new report which detailed systemic abuse within the u.s. women's professional soccer league. the yearlong, independent investigation found that sexual misconduct, emotional abuse, and verbally abusive coaches are rampant throughout the sport. we get more now from cbs' nikki battiste. >> reporter: today, some of the complaints and allegations from players in the national women's soccer league detailed publicly how they were ignored and overlooked in favor of keeping coaches and owners in jobs. >> the sexual misconduct varies here from really inappropriate,
4:11 am
misogynistic-type comments to unwanted sexual advances to actual coercion by coaches. >> reporter: former u.s. deputy attorney general sally yates led the probe. the report says abusive coaches moved from team to team. those in a position to correct the record stayed silent. in a circumstance like this, under the national women's soccer league, is there such a thing as a consensual sexual relationship? >> not between a player and a coach. there is such a power differential in that relationship it is by definition not consensual. >> reporter: last season, five of the 10 head coaches in the national women's soccer league either were fired or stepped down amid allegations of misconduct. sexual misconduct accusations against coach paul riley ignited protests among the players, who last year paused games for moments of silence. sinead farlley is one of the players who spoke out against riley.
4:12 am
>> soccer for me was my safe space and my world, and something that i had such an innocent pure love for since i was a little girl. and that was taken from me. >> reporter: previously unreported incidents between former coach christy holly and a player describe how he invited her to watch game footage and instead showed her pornography and touched her inappropriately. the u.s. soccer president today called the report heartbreaking and promised action, including creating an office to handle allegations of misconduct and implementing background checks for all u.s. soccer staff. norah. >> absolutely sickening. nikki battiste, thank you. well, overseas now to ukraine, tonight, president zelenskyy says ukrainian forces have retaken more territory in the illegally annexed. this as cbs news has learned a new u.s. aid package will include more advanced rocket systems that have been key to ukraine's recent advances.
4:13 am
cbs' charlie d'agata is in southern ukraine. >> reporter: ukrainian tanks take up position, holding the line in recaptured territory in eastern ukraine, reinforcements after russian troops were forced to retreat from the strategic town of lyman. ukraine's president thanking his warriors saying the successes of our soldiers are not limited to lyman. a reference to lightning advances in the south, this video said to show soldiers raising the flag in a retaken village toward kherson. but after president putin's illegal annexation on friday, many here are bracing for a massive escalation, including the exiled mayor of russian-held malitupol. >> i expect putin to use nuclear weapons. >> reporter: you do? >> yes. i expect it. he's crazy. >> reporter: his forces have
4:14 am
already stepped up attacks on civilian targets. take a look at this crater. it's not exactly clear what the intended target was, but a massive russian missile completely destroyed a home in this residential neighborhood. neighbors tell us a grandmother, a mother, and two small children were killed as they slept. the world may be getting used to scenes like these, not if you lived in this neighborhood, where two school kids went to sleep, unaware of what the night would bring. there are more explosions here in dnipro overnight and this morning. yet, tonight, ukrainian forces are on the move. and there's a real sense of momentum as they claw back russian-held territory. norah. >> charlie d'agata, thank you so much for your reporting. the war in ukraine is just one of the issues the central intelligence agency is closely monitoring. the cia is marking its 75th anniversary this year, so we visited the headquarters at
4:15 am
langley to speak with director putin is concerned about the advances ukraine's military is making as hundreds of thousands flee russia. >> it's got to be a concern, not just about what's happening on the battlefield in ukraine, what's happening at home, and what's happening internationally. you know, he stood next to xi jinping last february just before the war started and they proclaimed a friendship without limits. well, it turns out that friendship has some limits, too. the chinese have controlled their enthusiasm for russia's conduct of this war. they haven't provided the kind of military support that putin had been looking for as well. so he's got to be troubled by what he sees. but he's also stubbornly confident in his own judgments. he believes he's tougher than anybody else. >> you make it sound like he is more dangerous. >> putin cornered, putin who feels like his back is against the wall, can be quite dangerous and reckless, and we saw, you know, the flawed assumptions he's made before the war.
4:16 am
i think he's basing his approach now on equally flawed assumptions where's he thinks he can tough it out with the ukrainians and with the united states and with the west. >> how closely is china watching what's happening in ukraine? >> oh, i think president xi is watching what's happening in ukraine like a hawk. i think he's been sobered, to some extent, by the poor performance of the russian military. the chinese leadership is also looking at what happens when you wellof courage and tenacit so i think all of that has been sobering and in some ways unsettling for the chinese leadership. >> you mean it could sober president xi's ambitions with taiwan? >> i think it could. president xi insists today that while he is firmly committed to unification-- in other words to achieving control over taiwan-- that his preference is to pursue means to achieve that short of the use of force.
4:17 am
but he's also instructed his military, we know, to be prepared no later than 2027 to conduct a successful invasion of taiwan. so the reality, at least as we see it, is that the further you get into this decade, the greater the risks rise of a potential conflict. >> and you can see more of our interview with director burns on cbsnews.com. >> across town here in washington, the supreme court's new term got under way today. justice ketanji brown jackson made her debut as the first black woman to sit on the nation's highest court. the new term will include a number of big issues, including voting rights, l.g.b.t.q. rights, and affirmative action. now to a disturbing story out of stockton, california. police are on the lookout for a possible seria details. >> reporter: the crime scene where 54-year-old lawrence lopez sr. was gunned down marks the latest in a string of murders that stockton police now think are all related. >> you could probably very well
4:18 am
call this serial killings. >> reporter: chief stanley mcfadden says all of the victims are men who were ambushed and shot, but not robbed. none of the murders were caught on surveillance cameras. >> we have no evidence to tell us that it's one person, two or three. >> reporter: investigators released this grainy image, a person of interest, possibly the suspect, or just a witness. the murders were all committed in dimly lit areas, the victims between the ages of 21 and 54, all but one are hispanic. a sister of one of the victims too afraid to show her face on camera. >> i hope the son of a ( bleep ) rots in hell. i hope that he gets caught. >> reporter: the first victim was 35-year-old paul yaw. his mother says investigators gave her some details. >> he was walking with somebody, the person turned towards him, or faced him-- whatever-- and shot him multiple times. >> reporter: all of it leaving a community in fear. >> everybody's on edge lately because now people are just afraid of coming outside.
4:19 am
>> reporter: stockton police tell us they're increasing patrols in the area, with more officers working late night and early-morning hours. the a.t.f. and the f.b.i. are also assisting with the investigation. and now there is a $95,000 reward for information leading to an arrest. norah. >> carter evans, thanks very much. >> well, changes could soon be coming to the nfl's concussion want to wake up to smoother, brighter skin day 1?
