he had too much evidence. it is a copout. the system is failing us! >> now at 11:00, her daughter's body was found burned, but the two men accused of killing out the trying are facing charges. the case that led the d.a. to consider dropping charges. >> from kpix, this is the late news with sara donchey on cbs news bay area. >> hello, i am sara donchey. 25-year-old was found in antioch and her body was found so badly burned it was impossible to tell how she died. two men were accused of mutilating her body but now her mother's hopes for justice are gone. the case was dropped and it had nothing to do with the

evidence or the case itself. the contra costa county district attorney is dismissing the charges because of text messages that the police officers who investigated our accused of sending. 40% of the antioch police force has been accused of sending racist and homophobic text messages, now countless cases like this one could be compromised. andrea nakano talked with kayla's mother about the setback. >> reporter: firefighters found her body here last october. she was so badly-burned that investigators had to rely on dental records to identify her. now it is the credibility of investigators that has come under fire, forcing the district attorney's office to drop charges. >> i never walked down there because i just don't. >> reporter: sandra deals with the pain of losing her daughter every day. now she is filled with anger as the d.a.s office drops the case against the two

men accused of burning her body. >> i'm going to see my baby again on the other side point. >> reporter: according to the contra costa county district attorney's office, they had to drop the case because this investigation relied on the work of officers associated with the racist text message scandal within the antioch police department. >> as much as we want to at this time, we cannot proceed, because we just do not have the confidence in the prosecution of the case. we believe the integrity has been compromised. >> reporter: assistant district attorney annie esposito says more than half of the officers who worked on the case are under investigation themselves in the texting scandal. the family says there is plenty of video evidence from surveillance cameras that show d'angelo boone and ashton montalvo bringing her body in a trash can to the location where she was set on fire.

>> justice has not been served, he had too much evidence! michaela was gone before all this came out and now they just come out all of a sudden like that? it is a copout! the system is failing us! >> reporter: the family hopes by speaking out it will bring more attention to the case. her mother admits her daughter was battling a drug addiction but says the two men should not be able to walk away without paying for their crimes. >> michaela was so wonderful. even though she had a bad thing when she got on those drugs, she was a good person, loving and kind and trusting too much all the time! >> reporter: the autopsy did reveal that michaela had meth and fentanyl in her system. the district attorney says that now by dropping the charges it leaves open the possibility of ringing back the charges in the future. now to alameda county, where the men accused in the

freeway shooting that killed jasper wu are no longer facing the possibility of life without parole. that is because pamela price remove the special circumstances murder charge filed by her predecessor, but the remaining murder charges and gang enhancements could still put 24-year-old ivory bivens and trevor green away for the rest of their lives if they are convicted or jasper wu was just shy of two years old wasugthe sfir atbo for and against price ahead of the wu charging decision. we talked to a former federal prosecutor tonight who said that gang enhancements that pamela price allowed could work to her advantage. >> the gang allegation allows a

prosecutor to explain why this happened, what motivated this, what is going on in this gang that left us with this tragedy. >> a third man who was believed to have been the target is charged with felony possession of a firearm. we turn to oakland. look at this. this neighborhood in east oakland looked like a junkyard of stolen and burned-out cars. this is what it looked like just a few weeks ago in may along carey avenue against the railroad tracks with a lot of upset neighbors who said the city was not doing enough to stop this. juliette goodrich worked on the story for a long time, and it looks like, i know this was bad when you went out there, but it looks like there is progress being made on this? >> there has! the city launched a task force to get these vehicles off the railroad tracks. we went back today and i have to tell you, the area was cleaned out. i was blown

away. they got in the d the jo that area are just so thankful for our story, for what the city did, and for what community activists did as well. take a listen. >> even though we were calling 911 and everything, we were just not getting anything done! after talking to you and can't and everything, it got done in a month! in a month! i can't believe it! >> did you sleep better last night? >> yes. >> pretty amazing. nice to see you getting results. i know this is a big problem in this part of oakland and this neighborhood, but what about other parts of oakland? >> so we were at carrie and yves and it is a big problem, but there are problems all over the place. they are going to each individual area day by day. they used to have 150 cars taken off the streets and they are upping it to 300 per month. i said we will keep following you around, so we will keep doing that and find out if neighborhoods are getting cleaner. >> thank you for joining us

tonight! taking a live look at sfo, where a bay area-bound flight that ended up stranded in russia is about to land in about an hour . the story is crazy. take a live look. this is flightaware tracking the air india flight. this is what happened. the boeing 777 took off from new delhi , but there was a problem with one of the engines, so the plane was forced to turn around and land in siberia, in eastern russia. since the war in ukraine started, a lot of airlines don't fly over russia, but air india still does. when the plane landed, they needed to get an entirely different plane, so the passengers were taken to a hostile, and this is the video shot on cell phones. pretty bare-bones accommodations, as you can imagine. they were said they were not allowed to leave the hospital and they could not even use their credit cards because of the sanctions over the war in ukraine. the oakland a's have taken a lot of flak here in the bay over there planned move to las

vegas, but it looks like nevada may not even want them. state lawmakers have been in a special session all day and evening over whether to allocate taxpayer money to help build the billion-dollar ballpark on the strip. some of the lawmakers are not convinced this is a good gamble for the state. one had some choice words about the team's chances of paying off. >> that money is supposed to pay back the bonds, but that is dependent on attendance, and are the worst team in the nation, and i think the projections that they will sell out every game are rosy estimates at best. >> tell us how you really feel, assemblywoman. if the vote gets pushed back it could throw a wrench into construction plans and jeopardize plans to play in the stadium by 2027. in napa county, two men are facing murder charges after a 17-year-old overdosed on fentanyl. 20-year-old luis are

accused of selling fentanyl to monica florez twice last may. she was found dead in her bedroom that same month. in san francisco, sheriff's deputies are about to join the fight against open-air drug dealing in the tenderloin with fentanyl being a big part of that. normally these deputies are charged with projecting jails, and city and county facilities in san francisco, not street-level enforcement. the sheriff will lay out details tomorrow with police chief bill scott who spoke about the crisis at the police commission meeting. >> the offices have been instructed that when they see open-air drug use, to engage, intervene, and some of that has resulted in citations and arrests. >> b.a.r.t. police have given out multiple doses of arkansas since yesterday because of overdoses at the civic center and mayfair stations. how about this? it looks like a scene out of mad max or some kind of post-apocalyptic movie, but this is new york.

place. it goes beyond their award-winning pies. it is about the people. in fact, everyone in this kitchen owns an equal slice of the business. >> we are a worker co-op, which means all the owners and workers work. >> reporter: six years ago he turned this into a co-op by selling the business to his staff as a leveraged buyout. >> the people here are the owners and they are incentivized with how the business grows. >> reporter: the employee-owners are now paying back a business loan with the profits of the company and they all run the shop as a board of directors. >> we created our rspto policy, vacation policy, 401(k) plan. we have a family leave plan. >> it is not just a job. it is our baby. >> reporter: this was colin

webster's first job. he now chairs the board. >> i tell people , i own a business and i make more money than some of my friends who went to college. >> reporter: after the pandemic wiped out several small businesses, a bill to create a co-op hub passed unanimously and became law in california this year. >> it creates stability in the community. the businesses are owned and operated by the people living there. >> reporter: co-ops can also be a good option for the tens of thousands of business owners who want to retire. >> it takes care of the business owner, pays them, takes care of employees and gives them a wealth-building opportunity, and it takes care of the community. >> reporter: one customer called it a better experience. >> this model works from a customer service level in terms

of employee retention. >> reporter: but it wouldn't work for anyone unless the end product is good. in these long lines at dinner time, it means that consumers and workers are both getting what they want. >> there are still just a small number of worker-owned co-ops in the south bay. so far a slice of new york pizza is the only one that is also a brick and mortar business. in north bay teen had a surprise guest at his high school graduation. the fourth grade teacher who got him thereby saving his life. vincent was nine years old when his heart stopped at school. his teacher administered cpr until paramedics arrived. now vincent is a proud graduate, so congratulations to him and great job to his teacher. paul, we have been talking about this for a couple of days. it is hard to forget.

september 9th, 2020. i was living in l.a. but we ran this video heavily! >> we could believe it, we lived here! >> yeah, the skies over the bay area were orange. it felt here like nighttime during the day. >> it is like only seen the orange stripe of a rainbow, but it is not rain causing it. it is just all that junk in the atmosphere. >> this is how it looked in new fromcanada blowing over the northeast. so this is the side-by-side comparison with the bay area in 2020 on the left and new york today on the other side, and while. >> the differences when our sky was this color all the bad stuff was in the atmosphere and ground level was okay until the next day when it came down thanks to gravity. this was just dreadful air quality for

most of the northeastern u.s. hundreds of uncontrolled wildfires burning in canada , over 150 of them in quebec alone. some experts are calling it the worst-ever start to the canadian wildfire season, and they have had some epic ones. over 9 million acres have already burned. thick blanket of smoky air blowing over major u.s. cities. >> obviously people have been seeing this all over. people on social media have been talking about this, saying that it looked like a scene out of a movie or it looks like mars. people said they could taste the air, which is obviously not good in this situation. >> think back to 2020. we had that a lot with the smoke blowing down from oregon. you could just taste the particulates in the atmosphere. >> acceptable in a donut shop but nowhere else! but you were saying the air quality was so poor the people were wearing masks. people here in the bay area are used to that because

we sometimes see smoky wildfire conditions. but that unhealthy air has moved to other places. >> yeah, it has been drifting further and further to the south. i can show you the satellite loop of the smoke being pushed along by a storm system swirling away over eastern quebec, just to the north of maine. so the cloud cover is associated with the storm system. all this beige stuff is smoke blowing over new york, pennsylvania and new jersey. air quality over the northeastern u.s. is still bad. this is actually an improvement over where it was earlier, but with the purple sensors everything is in the very unhealthy or hazardous category and it is a much broader problem than just this. i will bring in our virtual-reality globe and we will look at smoke concentration . it is literally something you can see on a globe, or at least a hemispheric perspective. everything is shaded in yellow or orange or red and is more

densely-concentrated smoke, and you can see how much of the eastern half of the country this covers. it is something that will continue to be a problem, because the overall weather pattern has generally just been stuck. we talk about areas of high and low pressure, but the cool weather we have had is actually part of this overall stock pattern with the area of high pressure pushing all the way up into canada. this has resulted in unseasonably warm weather and an unusually severe start the wildfire season. usually these things float from place to place, but instead they have been stationary, or one moves out and another one moves in. we need the whole thing to budge, but it is unlikely that we will see the wildfire situation getting much better in the foreseeable future. they had an unusually warm month of may. this indicates record-selling temperatures up towards the arctic circle and above-average temperatures for for much of may, werehe bluei

but much of the rest of the continent was just cooking and getting off to that rabbit start the wildfire season. let's talk about our weather. just a little bit cloud cover filling back in. temperatures at the moment are mostly in the upper 50s, still hanging on the 63 degrees. we will see low cloud cover and fog backing up towards the coast as we head towards midday. temperatures tonight dropping down to what is normal for early june, mid-to-upper 50s. high temperatures tomorrow will be very close to normal along the coast, right around 60 and a few degrees below average around the bay and mid-to-upper 60s further inland and several degrees below normal in the north bay. that is normal beyond what you saw today. in the east bay, the warmer spots don't even hit 80 degrees, that is an unusually cool weather pattern. this is what we will be dealing with all the way through the weekend into next week. i say dealing with

like it is unpleasant. it is nice to get a pg&e bill that isn't astronomical. temperatures will stay steady middleof nd thinwe nearverage next week which means close to 80 in san jose and into the 80s for parts of the east bay, but that is still a full week away. enjoy the free air conditioning and the fog pattern while it lasts because eventually summertime will settle back in with a vengeance. vern? still ahead in sports, did you hear about the a's? the fans knew they had it in them! and the giants, still winning after
