donald trump actually understands that it's probably smarter to get in front of this and he is actually trying to make this an asset. >> now at 11:00, after years of investigations, donald trump has been indicted, why some experts say it could actually

bolster his 2024 campaign to retake the white house. >> from kpix, this is the late news with sara donchey on cbs news bay area. >> good evening. i'm juliette goodrich in for sara tonight. former president donald trump could be arrested any day after a years long investigation into allegations that trump paid hush money to an adult film actress and he's facing arrest in the middle of his presidential campaign, another first, and the reaction is huge. let's get right to michael george live in manhattan. thanks so much for joining us right now. what can you tell us about the sealed documents and what other information we have? >> reporter: we're in unchartered territory here, unprecedented historically, politically and so making predictions is definitely tough at this point. here's what we can tell you. sources tell cbs news the trump legal team is in

negotiation with the d.a.'s office for an arraignment to happen tuesday. that means trump would come here, be fingerprinted, have his mugshot taken and the charges would be read against him. a manhattan grand jury voted to indict former president donald trump on thursday making him the first former president to face criminal charges. the indictment confirmed by his attorneys remains under seal. the district attorney's investigation is related to hush money payments made to adult film star stormy daniels in the runup to the 2016 election and whether trump falsified records to hide it. >> they have nothing. >> reporter: in a statement trump said he is a completely innocent person and that this is political persecution and election interference at the highest level in history. >> the fact that he may be indicted now does not have any effect whatsoever upon his running for president. >> reporter: the current

presidential candidate will be treated like any other person facing charges. >> he will be processed, get a mugshot, a booking number, get fingerprint, albeit electronically. >> reporter: trump is expected to surrender next week at the manhattan criminal courthouse where the nypd has stepped up its presence. >> all of the law enforcement will be joined with the secret service to accomplish this mission. >> reporter: trump is facing several other investigations, including his handling of classified documents, his role in the january 6th capitol attack, and his alleged attempt to overturn the 2020 election results in georgia. remember it was last week trump suggested there could be death and destruction if he's indicted. the nypd has a lot of people on hand tonight and will the next week as a precaution. live in manhattan, michael george, back to you. >> i have a question for you

abprure. so tus msel. he ge oktakes thatis he free to go? >> reporter: well, the next step would be he would make a court appearance. it is possible that he could be in handcuffs for that. that is up to the discretion of law enforcement. it's expected to be a quick arraignment, about five, ten, 15 minutes, no longer, and it's very likely he would be released until his next court date. >> we'll follow this, appreciate your live report tonight. the former president has previously predicted "potential death and destruction" if he was indicted. california congressman adam schiff became a household name after leading the prosecution against trump during his first impeachment. we spoke with him live earlier today. >> sadly, though, this is right out of the trump playbook, which is to threaten to unleash some kind of hell if he is held accountable, but we can't allow

that to intimidate or interfere with the application of the law. if the justice system is to work in this country, it has to have only one standard for the rule of law. anything less simply isn't democracy. >> in new york city people waved signs saying lock him up and trump lies all the time outside of the d.a.'s office. over in palm beach people gathering outside of trump's mar-a-lago estate waving trump 2024 flags. political analysts say his supporters view this indictment as politically motivated and it could increase their resolve to back him in the 2024 primary. san jose state lecturer donna crain said the indictment came down as she was heading into class today and said trump is already using it as a tool with supporters. >> donald trump actually understands that it's probably smarter to get in front of this and he is actually trying to make this an asset. he's trying to use this, today events, as

evidence that he is a threat to the deep state. i actually have seen a fundraising plea from the trump campaign and they're selling t-shirts today stamped with donald trump type of sort of indictment day t-shirts. >> professor crain telling us even though trump has been indicted, he can legally still run for president. it doesn't matter if you've been arrested or are a felon. andrea nakano shows us what could come next for trump in the days ahead. >> reporter: the grand jury's decision to indict mr. trump has sent shock waves across the country as many wait to see what will happen next to the former president. he is expected to be arraigned tuesday. >> bail will be set and court dates will be set at that point. i think that's when the indictment is going to be disclosed and the charges will be disclosed. >> reporter: carlos singh was a federal department of justice lawyer for 20 years and says

it's common for grand juries in high profile cases like this one to seal the files. >> in this particular case my sense is since there's so much publicity they're trying to keep a calm note, a calmness in that sense, because one of the issues is going to be can they select a jury that will be fair to both sides? there's already a lot of pretrial publicity. >> reporter: there should be more clarity on the exact charges at the arraignment. one big question, what elevated this case from a misdemeanor to a felony? >> there's been a lot of discussion in terms of this relates to hush money that allegedly the former president paid to stormy daniels to keep an affair quiet. as i understand new york law, that may be a misdemeanor and one of the issues that i hear is that they've been trying to -- how do they link that charge with another charge, for example, a campaign finance charge or a

tax charge that may elevate that initial charge to a felony? >> reporter: if mr. trump is convicted, he is looking at about four years behind bars, but a prison sentence is not mandatory. >> you can head to kpix.com for the latest updaonthis historic indictment and we're streaming 24/7 on cbs news bay area. the nashville school shooting renewed the national debate over gun control. there will a funeral tomorrow. dealing with a trauma is hard enough, but having to do it without a place to live is unimaginable. that's what the farmworkers are dealing after the shooting that left some dead. >> reporter: it's been a dizzying past few months for the families of those killed in january's mass shooting in half

ief of losa lod ition to the ny re nabletoreturn tothe shoo ever since. >> it's hard. it's very hard out here on the coast, especially with -- there's not much low income housing. there's different types of housings out here and it's just hard overall. >> reporter: vanessa rodriguez works for the local nonprofit that's been at the forefront of getting aid and assistance to these families. she told me none of them felt comfortable talking on camera, but the hardest thing for them all right now is finding more long term temporary housing, especially for their children. >> i feel like the little ones, it's very traumatic. i feel like it's something different. they were used to just living on the farm having everything there and just moving on from house to house, it's been a bit complicated for them. >> reporter: earlier this month the city of half moon bay put out this call to the

community asking for help in finding more vacant housing. vice mayor joaquin jimenez told me it helped. >> that's how we found places for some of the single farmworkers, some of the families and still looking for more. >> reporter: vanessa says they're still looking for housing for many of the larger families. >> there's big families and there's a family of three to a family of six. so we got to accommodate from all that. yeah, it's been hard. >> reporter: the city has plans to build more affordable housing units in the future, but that project won't be done for years. vice mayor jimenez says for now, the community is doing everything it can to support these families and find them someplace to stay, at least through the end of the year. >> that's just the type of community we are. we are here to support each other and everybody is trying to help the best way they can or the best way we can. >>

>> reporter: vanessa told me the families feel the support but have a long way to go towards feeling settled. >> definitely an emotional impact on them as well as a family. they have each other to rely on and now they have us definitely to advocate for them as well and coastside hope and the city. we haven't left them alone, but it's something they have to deal with on their own at the end of the day once they get home. >> reporter: that's why vanessa says it's so important these families have a place to call home. >> another challenge, the san mateo county coastlines got hit hard by the storms and people are still trying to recover from the damage. still ahead, a peninsula woman was walking her dog in broad daylight when she was abducted in mexico, what the fbi is doing to fiher. and the crowd goes wild, a brave teen boy fighting cancer in the spotlight on opening

day. plus, it's the paintings coming to live on stage, where you can see this unique performance this weekend. also brooke shields, clint smith, tonight's guests on

tonight the fbi is trying to reinvigorate the search for a woman kidnapped four months

ago in mexico. monica deleone barba was kidnapped walking to home from work jalisco. the case has gone cold and the feds hope the new reward can generate leads. the executive director of the san jose police officers, association is due in court tomorrow accused of being in an international drug ring. she used her work computer to order controlled substances from abroad and the pos account to ship illegal opioids all over the u.s. authorities say the director ordered thousands of pills to her home and office imported from various countries, including canada, spain, and the uk. it's alleged the deliveries were marked as wedding gifts and food supplements. the union released a statement saying no one else at the poa is involved or had

knowledge of the alleged acts. let's get to our first alert weather, paul, one storm after the other. we're not are not. ranym we >> we're out of the woods for now. >> we'll see what else we can find to worry about eventually. all the rain has had a very positive impact on the drought situation. obviously it's had other very negative impacts, but let's focus on the positive. a new update from the u.s. drought monitor today, the entirety of the bay area is out of drought condition. the yellow indicates spots running a long term over the course of years rainfall deficit. statewide data, it's good news. we're down to 2% of california that is in severe or drought conditions, just 28% in moderate drought conditions. the 2% number at the beginning of the water year october 1st , 94% of california was in extreme drought or even worse. what it takes to get from 94%

to 2% is an exceptional rainy season. we rank in the top 20 for the wettest water years on record and we're only six months into the water year. obviously our rain chances taper off significantly in april and first half of may, but we'll probably add up a little bit more rain. we're basically in the same territory as we were six years ago, but nowhere close to the top three, which are all over 45 inches of rain. this is way above where even the past couple years. last year was middle of the pack thanks to the big october storm and rainy december, but two winters ago was one of the dryest on record ranking third from the bottom with just 9 inches of rain overall. we're dry tomorrow, a mix of clouds and sunshine in store for us on friday, another nice day, a bit cool. the next storm system mostly misses us to the north but close enough to send a chance of a shower, maybe a few sprinkles into the bay area saturday. let's look at futurecast. a little fog to start the day tomorrow, won't last long. we'll see a mix of

clouds and sunshine. we'll freeze the maps early saturday morning when most of the moisture is up to our north, far northern california and most of it up into oregon and washington. as the system skirts by to our north, it squeezes the atmosphere enough to send showers into mendocino county and maybe a few into the north bay and right along the coast. that will be late saturday afternoon into saturday evening, barely more than a trace, a few sprinkles here and there. that's the kind of rain chance we'll see the next several days. a dry second half of the weekend, all the moisture staying north. the highest rain chances in the entire seven-day forecast are in the 20 to 30% range again by monday and tuesday next week. that system will be accompanied by gusty winds. we'll have to keep an eye on that. in terms of additional rain, there's not a lot in the long range data. temperatures are cooling off now, mostly 40s, clinging to 50 degrees in oakland. temperatures tonight dropping to the low to mid-40s with a

few upper 30s in the inland valleys, especially in the north bay. temperatures are going to warm up a couple more degrees than today, but that leaves us5 to 7 degrees below normal, mid-50s along the coast, low 60s in the santa clara valley, up to 62 in san jose, right around 60 degrees in the inland valleys of the east bay, upper 50s in san francisco and oakland and for the north bay. you won't be quite as mild as other inland parts of the bay area. the coolest spots, farther north in lake county, low 50s in lakeport and clearlake. temperatures warm up another couple degrees saturday. that's about as far as we go. that system that brings us a chance of sprinkles saturday will bring more cool air into the bay area through the middle of next week. we'll leave a slight chance of rain showers in the forecast monday and tuesday, but even if we get some showers, we're talking less than a quarter inch total rainfall and not much more in the long range data after that either. a little chilly the next several days. we can get

used to that. they had to deal with it at the a's opener this evening. we've got a story telling tale ofarea baseball clubs, today, this day one of big league games. the a's, what a way to start it off!

all the fans went home, but it's opening day for baseball tonight, so the brightest stars took the field in oakland. >> i was there, saw a bit of it. >> over 26,000 at the coliseum tonight for opening night, a strong showing of angels fans looking to get a glimpse of superstars shohei ohtani and mike trout, but a's fans did not disappoint. many arrived early to get familiar with some of the new faces on the team. >> with the oakland a's, you never know if they'll move or not. >> wherever they go, we'll be there. we'll see them wherever they go and it might not be many games, but you know what? i'm still going to see them. >> what's going on with the a's and the business part of it, i

don't care. there will be baseball somewhere in the bay area and if not, maybe we'll move out of the bay area. i don't know. baseball comes first. >> the sentimental moment the top of the ninth, gabriel de la cruz diagnosed with leukemia last year at age 13. tonight he threw out the first pitch at the a's game. the league granted his wish of attending the mlb all-star game this summer and i think he gave them some good luck. >> e didn't even know that was coming. he just thought oh, i'm going to throw out the first pitch. now he's going to the all-star game. >> well deserved. >> i will say this. it's only day one, okay? but it sure is nice to look at the al west standings and see the a's at the top and the astros and angels at the bottom. >> we'll savor this moment. >> you know what? regular season is here. we'll start you off in our own backyard at the

a's after a 102-loss season, a game like tonight at home can give you some hope. look what or who they had to overcome tonight. shohei ohtani, the two-way star on the mound, swung the bat, too. he kept the a's in check, struck out ten over six innings, allowed just two hit. look at this. he'll earn reportedly $65 million this season, including endorsements. ohtani was lifted after 93 pitches. the turning point, the eighth inning. the a's tied it and the a's against the angels bullpen scored two runs. the a's have beaten ohtani before and they did it again tonight 2-1 the final. the a's have friday off and get after it again saturday. meantime, giants fans, all you can say is it's just one game. four hits was not going toda good ufthoughthe yankees

dud in the webb sit down 12 yankees batters, a career high 12 strikeouts. the bad? aaron judge. came close to signing with san francisco, but remained in pinstripes, second pitch he saw today gone. remember, logan webb was one of the guys who tried to recruit judge to the giants and the giants couldn't do damage to yankees ace, gerrit cole. cole struck out 11 over six scoreless innings and struck out his brother-in-law, brandon crawford. yankees won it 5-0, same two teams tomorrow. >> for me personally, this is very much a story of two excellent starts, a couple home runs for them. we weren't able to get the ball in the air and hit those home runs. that's why they came out on the winning end of this. >>you know this is the

first time since 1968 all 30 teams played their first games on the same day? timing, giants game, two hours 33 minutes, a's game, two hours 30 minutes. you got to love that for sure. >> that's amazing. all on the same day. >> pitch count, they sped up the game. >> all right. thank you. coming up, she's going back to her roots for some homecoming concerts after a grammy win. we'll be right back.

the snow filing up in the sierra causing a lot of frustration obviously for those hungry bears. they are waking up from their hibernation and -- >> to this. >> you're hungry. >> to that and it's spring, but it still looks like winter. so they're a little concerned and confused. black bears may become desperate leading to more human encounters in their search for food. people are om down bad feeders because 500-pound legend hank the tank was blamed for ransacking homes a couple winters ago. hank is a
