may be less so there might be more water going into the creeks than normal.this green stuff you see on the hillside is called hydro mulching..it helps keep the soil in place and binds with the soil to provide a protective cover.it's being used to help stabiles slopes and hillside because there is an increased of risk of landslides.which is not a huge concern during this storm, since it's not expected to be a gusher.but if the rain comes down hard enough crews will be out patrolling the fire zones checking for flooding and make sure the protections they have in place are working.maureen kelly kron4 news.

belief that you need extra personnel to safely accomplish that movement..."under sheriff carl neusel/santa clara county sheriff's office"....on the day of the escape, the normal contingent of deputies on duty was 13 and one sergeant and they actually hadtwo additional deputies assigned so they were actually over-staffed that day..." what's more, the sheriff's office says twenty-five new deputies are now in training. but overall staffing is down about 20 percent. the dsa says monday's escape shows that there are simply not enough deputies to go around. roger winslow/deputy sheriff's association"...what we've been saying to the sheriff's office is that it is just a matter of time before something bad happens because we just don't have the staff to safely accomplish what we've been asked to do...."

survivors share their stories of the texas church massacre as gun control advocates say congressional inaction has cost hundreds of lost lives. leading the charge is california senator dianne feinstein.(grant)nearly a quarter=century ago she won passage of a temporary ban on assault weapons ... one that lapsed after ten years, catherine heenan is herew to show us why she's trying again. catherine?

mayor after the city hall murders of 1978.natfifteen years later, she was in the senate when a gunman killed eight people at 101 california street.the husband of a victim brought his 11 month old daughter to testify on behalf of her bill to ban assault type weapons.the ten year ban was not renewed after it expired in 2004.blamblamblam semiautomatic weapons returned to the marketplace, and the death toll climbed.senator feinstein released figures showing 125 people died in 18 mass shootings in the decade before 1998.171 people died in 21 mass shootings in the next ten years.in the last ten years there have been 50 shootings ... 437 dead.sen kirsten gillibrand/d-ny "of the 5 worst mass shootings in our history, 3 of them have occurred in the past 17 months. think about that."new york's kirsten gillebrand is a co=sponsor of feinstein's bill. it would ban the sale,

manufacture, transfer and importation of hundreds of military-style assault weapons by name. ban any assault weapon that accepts a detachable ammunition magazine and has one or more military characteristics ban bumpstocks and other devices that increase the firing rate.it would not apply to any firearm legally owned at the time of passage.

here in san jose sheriff's deputies revealed more details about the role of the two people accused of helping two inmates escape from custody.54 year old rene hunt of east palo alto provided the first getaway car which was abandoned a block from the courthouse in palo alto. 44 year old marquita kirk, of sunnyvale, provided the second getaway vehicle, a u-haul cargo van. hunt and kirk, say deputies, are associates of the two escapees, john bivins and tramel mclough, who escaped following a court hearing on monday. in san jose rob fladeboe kron 4 news (steve) in national news... vice president mike pence visited texas to honor those killed and wounded in a church shooting. 26 people were killed and 20 more were injured after the shooting on sunday in sutherland springs. vice president pence visited a medical center where seven people are still in the hospital. he and his wife also attended a community vigil. as more red flags continue to pop up from the killer's past. jake tapper

reports on how he was able to get a gun... and how this can be prevented in the future. animal cruelty, insubordinatio n , attempts to carry out death threats these are just some of the warning signs on record... countless dots now beginning to connect far too late. kayyem: each of them are sort of a canary in a coal mine, they're sort of warning you that this is someone whose not stopping. devin kelley's troubling paper trail shows a man that grew more violent over time. high school disciplinary records obtained by cnn show seven suspensions including drug offenses and skipping class. by 2012 he was facing assault charges in military court - and he had escaped from a behavioral health clinic where he was being held ahead of trialwhen officers found kelly after that escape they recorded that he "suffered mental disorders"

and had been "caught sneaking firearms" onto the airforce base where he was stationed, all this, after making death threats to his chain of command. texas law prevents the sale of guns to anyone with involuntary psychiatric hospitalization. the question is - was kelley's visit involuntary as it seems to be? was it then reported to the national background check system as required? kayyem: stories like his have existed fro all of mankind and the difference today is of course the capacity to kill so many people so quickly with the accessible weaponry we have in the united states. kelley pleaded guilty to aggravated assault on his wife and young stepson - actions so violent sources say the toddler suffered a fractured skull. a history of domestic violence is yet another red flag that would prevent a gun purchase under current law. but it must be reported to make a difference. kelley's assault conviction resulted in him being discharged from the military for "bad conduct.' but the air force says it failed to relay kelley's conviction to law enforcement. kayyem throughout his life he kept pushing the envelope. he never seemed to face the consequences that he needed to face for the kind of person he wasin 2013 kelley was

investigated for the rape and sexual assault but was never charged. a year later -animal abuse charges after neighbors told police kelley was seen punching his pet husky. kayyem what we see is the silo-ing of that information. so the hs knew, the military knew, the mother in law and the wife knew but none of them are looking at this in totality. and just days before the massacre the pastor of this church told the sheriff he felt uneasy about the shooter todd intv with pickett: he just said that he did not think that he was a good person, and did not want him around his church. president trump is continuing his trip to asia.. he left south korea today and headed to china.. but not before issuing a warning to north korean dictator kim jong-un..catherine heenan is here with more.. (catherine) president trump used his visit to south korea to send a stern and personal message to kim jong-un. during his address to south korea's

national assembly, he warned that continuednuclear activity in north korea - would result in the regime's destruction. he's casting himself as more willing than previous u.s. presidents to use militaryforce against pyongyang. talking about the dictator's family legacy, he said "north korea is not the paradise your grandfather envisioned, it is a hell that no person deserves.' the president had hoped to visit the demilitarized zone between north korea and south korea...but the trip was cancelled because of bad weather. meantime, he's now in china....where he and the first lady attended the opera.they got a warm welcome...although tomorrow

trump is expected to pressure china's president to do more to persuade north korea to abandon its nuclear program. tonight...state run media in north korea is responding to president trump's remarks...referring to him as a lunatic old man. pam and steve?

49ers are once again turning to cj beathard at quarterback this week. beathard, expected to start his 4th straight

game....while jimmy garoppolo is still learning the offense. it's probably for garoppolo's best interest that he doesn't play... since beathard has been sacked 16 times in the past 3 games. kyle shanahan said it's unknown when his new qb will be out there, but garoppolo is diving in to the playbook. "every day you try to progress. what you learn the day before you try to just retain that and make it a habit. i think every day gets easier, but then there's new stuff everyday also. it's a constant learning process."
