testifying. pence, too, had argued he shouldn't have to testify because of his constitutional role in the legislative branch. >> the notion of compelling a former vice president to appear in court to testify against the president with whom they served is unprecedented. but i also believe it's unconstitutional. >> reporter: sources close to the investigation also say the special counsel could be building a conspiracy case against trump and his allies with a focus on a possible plan to obstruct an official congressional proceeding. meanwhile, here in new york, the grand jury investigating trump and hush money payments now might not meet for the rest of this week, prolonging a decision on a possible trump indictment. norah. >> robert costa with those new details, thank you so much. tonight, a second bomb cyclone in the last two weeks is battering california. torrential rains and strong winds are slamming coastal communities while heavy snow is falling in the sierra.

>> announcer: this is the "cbs overnight news." i'm nicole sganga in washington. thanks for staying with us. nashville remains in shock this morning in the wake of the latest school shooting that left six victims dead, including three young children. gun violence is now the leading cause of death among youngsters under 17. nearly 400 have been kill sod far this year, many of them in mass shootings. and although these tragic events capture the headlines, the majority of gun deaths in this country never get reported,

mostly because they're self-inflicted. susan spencer has the story. >> reporter: katrina breeze credits her love of art to her whimsical, talented mother. ♪ for more than a decade, the two worked side by side producing parades in new orleans. >> you have a lot of fond memories. >> just her dancing in the parade. just her feeling the music, feeling the audience, giving love. >> reporter: but the person who seemed so carefree was a tormented soul, in a constant battle with bipolar disorder. >> this is a letter that she wrote to her psychiatrist. dear doctor, it has been nine months since this episode began. i'm not doing well. how long must i endure this? >> reporter: her mother answered her own question just a few days later. >> this is a copy of my mother's suicide note. >> reporter: on june 26th, 2018, she bought a gun and fatally

shot herself. she did it beneath the tree of life, a new orleans landmark. >> it was the most special spot she could choose. >> in what way? >> it's where many of our friends have had weddings. we've had funerals there. the space is so sacred, it feels to me like -- like she laid herself on the cathedral of our community and died there. >> reporter: but more devastating than where she did it was how she did it. >> she didn't like guns. she was scared of guns. there were no guns in our family. it was so unlike her. >> why do you think she chose a gun? >> when you look at tools for the job, that's the best tool for the job. and that's what the information online will tell you. >> most other methods, folks

survive. intention al overdose, only 2% to 3% of folk who's attempt suicide using an overdose die. folks who use a firearm don't get a second chance. >> reporter: which is why any conversation about saving lives has to start with guns, says professor mike anestas. he heads up the new jersey gun violence research center at the rutgers school of public health. >> are guns the main cause of suicide deaths? >> yes. more than half of all suicide deaths in any given year are caused by self-inflicted gunshot wounds. so that's somewhere in the vicinity of 25,000 firearm suicide deaths in the u.s. every single year. >> reporter: even more staggering, the majority of all firearm fatalities in the u.s. are suicides. >> suicide accounts for anywhere from 60% to 65% of all the gun deaths in the united states in any given year. >> whoa. that may be the most shocking statistic in all of this.

>> in 2020, there were 66 gun suicides every day, which is more people than died in the worst mass shooting in u.s. history, and we don't see it. you know, it doesn't make the news. it happens one person at a time unless it's a celebrity. you know, we just don't hear it. >> reporter: but university of alabama law professor fred vars is trying to change that, raising awareness while pushing for new gun legislation. >> is there any correlation between stricter gun laws and fewer suicides? >> yes, absolutely. >> reporter: he's working with katrina breeze on something called donna's law, named after her mother. it would allow potential gun buyers to put themselves on a do not sell list. >> an individual would have the opportunity to suspend their ability to buy a gun, voluntarily, confidentially put their name into the already existing background check

system. and if they attempted to buy a gun, that transaction would be denied. >> do you have confidence that people who are suicidal would voluntarily request not to be sold a gun? >> during a suicidal crisis or a depressive episode, i think it is unlikely that anybody would sign up. but there are a lot of people who have been in that dark place, who come out the other side and know they're a danger to themselves. it's more like an advance directive. here while i'm feeling better, let me prepare myself for that, right, and just get the gun out of the equation. >> reporter: he says the law would be especially helpful to people who, like katrina's mother, have bipolar disorder. roughly 15% of whom die by suicide. but it would help others too. >> anybody, for any reason, can put their name on the list. you could have an anger problem. you could have an addiction. you could have recently lost a job, you know. there are other reasons people

attempt suicide that don't involve mental illness. >> reporter: so far,hae nowhere, and maryland recently held hearings. >> this bill would give people prone to suicidality the agency to make decisions about their own access to guns when they're not actively suicidal. >> reporter: that's mental health advocate brian barks testifying in favor of the law. barks, who struggles with bipolar disorder, says she learned firsthand a few years ago why this legislation needs to pass. >> i remember it being a beautiful season. it was spring in d.c. the flowers were blooming. the sun was out. and i was deeply suicidal. and i had been thinking, what would happen if i bought a gun? i knew every reason why someone who struggles with suicidality should never own a gun. but that day, i didn't care.

and i found myself actually googling, where can i buy a gun? i imagined how that gun would feel in my hands, cold and heavy, and i knew that it could easily end my life. >> reporter: she doesn't remember exactly what stopped her, but she ended up hospitalized, under psychiatric care. >> that moment really haunts me because i know that a lot of people in the united states have googled that exact same thing and not had the same outcome that i did. whether i feel i can be safe -- >> reporter: barks, whose journals chronicle years of struggle, says she will put herself on a "do not sell" list immediately if her home state of maryland adopts donna's law. >> i don't want the version of myself who doesn't see the value

of my own life to be able to buy a gun in those moments. i want the version of myself who is thinking clearly to be able to preempt that crisis and say, no, she doesn't need to have a gun when she's at her most suicidal. >> i think this is an easy way to save lives. nobody is having their gun rights taken away. certainly no one's having their gun taken away. we're just allowing people to exercise in advance, you know, and protect their decision not to have access to a gun because they know they're not safe with one. >> reporter: and katrina breeze says stopping even one suicide would make her uphill fight for donna's law well worth it. >> it's such a horrific, debilitating thing to have happen, and i can't imagine any other way to process it other

than to change it. >> that was susan [♪♪] did you know, unless you treat dandruff regularly, it will keep coming back. try head & shoulders shampoo. dandruff is caused by irritation to a germ that lives on everyone's scalp. unlike regular shampoo, head & shoulders contains zinc pyrithione, ' and provides up to 1da otection. try head & shoulders shampoo and conditioner. for best results, use with every wash. this has been medifacts for head & shoulders. paradontax blood when you brush could lead to worse over time. help stop the clock on gum disease now. parodontax toothpaste... ...is 3x more effective at removing plaque bacteria, one of the main causes of bleeding gums. parodontax. the gum experts.

legally purchased seven firearms they were hiding in their home, three of which were used in the school. also nashville police have now released body cam footage of those officers stopping the attack. obbya note of caution here, the >> reporter: these are the moments nashville police responded to the call of an active shooter. >> the kids are all locked down. we have two kids that we don't know where they are. >> reporter: with a teacher's guidance and without hesitation. >> it's upstairs. it sounds like it's upstairs. >> reporter: taking out the shooter with a burst of shots just minutes after entering the school, and 14 minutes from the first 911 call. >> shots fired, shots fired, shots fired! move! >> reporter: likely preventing further loss of life. they are rex engelbert and michael collazo, two of five officers who responded. >> i was really impressed that with all that was going on, the

danger, that somebody took control and said "let's go, let's go, let's go," and went in. >> reporter: nashville police also released haunting surveillance video from inside the private christian school as the shooter gains access by firing on locked glass doors, two assault-style weapons and a handgun, shooting at officers' cars from a second-floor window. police say the shooter is 28-year-old audrey hale, a former student who had a map of the school and a drawing of how to enter. the shooter did send an old friend an ominous message on social media just before the shooting. >> just unbelievable. that's speechless, like when i initially received it, i was -- i do not respond in comfort. then i screen shotted it to my dad, and i was like, uh, do i need to say something? >> reporter: she did alert authorities, but it was too late. as flags flew at half-staff today in nashville and across the country, we're learning more

they have interviewed the shooter's parents and they are combing through the writings left behind but have not learned a motive for the carnage left behind. janet shlian, thank you. i want to turn now to a major development in one of the federal investigations into former president donald trump. a federal judge late today ordered that former vice president mike pence will have to testify in front of a grand jury about trump's efforts to try to overturn the 2020 election. cbs's robert costa has more. >> reporter: a major ruling with potentially historic consequences. sources say former vice president mike pence has been ordered to provide testimony to special counsel jack smith's grand jury about any illegal acts committed by former president trump. and that private exchanges between trump and pence are not off limits. prosecutors are focused on conversations the two men had in the days before and on january 6th. >> it's hard to imagine a more important witness than the vice president himself telling a

grand jury and potentially a jury, if there were an indictment, about what the president was doing on january 6th. what did he say? what were the plans that he communicated to the vice president or to others in the presence of the vice president? >> reporter: trump's lawyers had tried to block pence from testifying. pence, too, had argued he shouldn't have to testify because of his constitutional role in the legislative branch. >> the notion of compelling a former vice president to appear in court to testify against the president with whom they served is unprecedented. but i also believe it's unconstitutional. >> reporter: sources close to the investigation also say the special counsel could be building a conspiracy case against trump and his allies with a focus on a possible plan to obstruct an official congressional proceeding. meanwhile, here in new york, the grand jury investigating trump and hush money payments now might not meet for the rest of

this week, prolonging a decision on a possible trump indictment. norah. >> robert costa with those new details, thank you so much. there's a lot more news ahead on the "cbs overnight

>> announcer: this is the "cbs overnight news." there is one thing that nearly every mass shooting in recent history has in common, and that's the kind of weapon used in the attacks -- an assault-style weapon. the same holds true for yesterday's shooting. cbs's jeff pegues has more. >> reporter: the nashville school shooting hit home for lee evans, principal of magruder high school in rockville, maryland. >> does a school community ever get over something like that? >> i don't think so. >> reporter: last year, one teenage student shot another in the bathroom of this school, a

shock for many of the 1,600-plus students. >> what is the most important aspect of security specifically? >> prevention. >> how do you prevent it? >> you know what the evils of society can bring, so you do everything you possibly can to educate, you know, people who are vulnerable. >> repisr, among 376 since columbine in 1999. more children now die from gun deaths than car accidents. today president biden once again called on congress to pass a ban on assault weapons. >> the last time we passed this law, violent shootings went down. mass shootings went down. >> reporter: the ban expired in 2004, and in the decade after, one study found mass shooting deaths went up nearly fivefold. calls for the ban to be reinstated have been stymied by the gun lobby and mostly republican opposition.

tennessee republican andy ogles posted this christmas card on facebook in 2021. his gop colleague tim burchett said this after the nashville shooting. >> we're not going to fix it. criminals are going to be iminal >> reporter: today the senate chaplain prayed for senators to end what he called paralysis on the issue. >> when babies die at a church school, it is time for us to move beyond thoughts and prayers. >> reporter: president biden was asked today why he continues to call for an assault weapons ban. he said, to expose the people who refuse to take action. washington's inaction comes at a time when a clear majority of mass shootings involving assault weapons are resulting in a higher death toll -- on average, four or more deaths, norah. >> i read that a pediatric

trauma surgeon in nashville that treated some of these victims said that wounds from these kinds of firearms are, quote, almost unsurvivable. jeff pegues, thank you. today a second bomb cyclone in the last two weeks is battering california. torrential rains and strong windar communities while heavy snow is falling in the sierra. that same storm will bring severe weather to seven states later this week, including possible tornadoes from iowa to mississippi. cbs news has learned that the u.s. border officials are planning to allow migrants injured in a horrific fire monday night at an immigration facility in mexico to enter the u.s. for medical treatment. at least 39 were killed and 28 others injured in the fire at a holding facility in juarez. that's across the border from el paso, texas. mexico's president says the fire was set intentionally after the men learned that they were going to be deported. turning now to the war in ukraine, russia attacked kyiv overnight with more than a dozen iranian-made drones.

ukraine says all but one were shot down, and it comes as we learn that the front lines were fortified with new tanks. and that's where cbs's ramy inocencio is tonight. >> reporter: ask and receive. ukraine hyped the first british and german tanks to arrive. >> marvelous. >> reporter: britain matching the publicity. ukrainian soldiers trained in the uk the past several weeks. far from me spin and halls of power, these walls of dirt are the homes of ukraine's 209th battalion, serving in the kharkiv region. on the border, the zero line with russia. weary soldiers watching the tree line, waiting for movement. >> the more trenches you have, the more lives you save. >> reporter: their commander's call sign is lynx. >> how concerned, how fearful are you this might escalate to nuclear war? >> i think they don't use nuclear weapons because if they

do, it's obvious end for russia. >> repr:ers in for three to five days, enjoying few human comforts save for resting in close quarters and keeping warm through nights that still dip below freezing. the 209th has crisscrossed ukraine, fighting russia's forces. >> how did russia's invasion change your opinions about russia? "i used to think they were my brothers. i have relatives in russia, but the invasion changed it all," says this sergeant. with an expected ukrainian counteroffensive, this relative quiet may be the last days before the next storm. and as british and german tanks have just arrived, ukrainian soldiers told us that they are now looking forward to u.s. abrams tanks to arrive too. they thanked president biden, but they also said they need more weapons faster. norah. >> ramy inocencio, thank you so much. the "cbs overnight news" will be right back.
