7:04 am
powerful winds blew out windows in haiti. while torrential rains triggered raging floodwaters. the storm collapsed a bridge in p peego and cutting it off from the rest of the country. throughout the country high water swallowed bridges and flooding neighborhoods with debris. downed power lines knocked out electricity and trees littered roads making them impassible. people used axes and machetes to try to clear the way. the capital port au prince bulldozers were brought in. people are still in shelters. matthew made a second landfall on the eastern tip of cuba tuesday night. a cuba civil defense official says the failure of a fiberoptic cable has cut off communication in that area and they will have to wait until after the storm

7:07 am
thought it would be better. >> reporter: what about this storm in particular made you decide let's get prepared? >> the strength of the winds. and how big it is. >> been through wilma and katrina and pretty much, you know, see what devastation it can cause. so not taking any chances. >> reporter: in addition to buying bottled water and batteries, people in south florida waited in long lines to refill propane gas canisters and loaded up sheets of plywood. >> we have to prepare for a direct hit on the florida coast. that turns and these things turn and has a direct impact we are not going to have a lot of time to evacuate because people are going to wait. >> reporter: states of emergency have been declared across florida, parts of georgia, and north carolina and in all of south carolina. governor nickk i haley -- >> our goal is you get a hundred miles away from the coast. >> reporter: and like south carolina's government, florida governor rick scott has activated the national guard.
7:08 am

7:09 am
to the northeast. hurricane contain watches and warnings in place. troem warning for dade and hurricane warnings continue for the bahamas, cuba and haiti as well. still a threat for the southeast. really we continue to watch hurricane matthew closely. >> lissette, thank you so much. the only vice presidential debate focused heavily on the presidential candidates. the tone last night was sharp and a little heated. democrat tim kaine pushed republican mike pence to explain donald trump's views and pence took aim at hillary clinton's performance in office. john dickerson, major garrett, and nancy cordes are all at longwood university in farmville, virginia. we begin with nancy and the biggest moments from the debate. good morning, nancy. >> good morning. >> reporter: mike pence was a calm counterpoint to donald trump's debate performance last week. though he stayed calm by refusing to acknowledge some of trump's more shocking pronouncements. tim kaine known as a happy warrior though with his ticket
7:10 am
in the lead some democrats wondered whether he had to go on offense quite so much? even if he did it with a smile. >> i cannot believe that governor pence will defend the insult-driven campaign that donald trump has run. >> clinton's running mate went on offense within the first two minutes. >> you guys love russia. >> heaviy handed broach. >> reporter: repeatedly jumping in and pressing pence trump's most comments. >> when donald trump says mexicans are rapists and criminals. >> reporter: pence deflected or denied. >> if donald trump said the things you said he said them in the way you said he said them he still wouldn't have a fraction of the insults that hillary clinton leveled when she said that half of our supporters were a basket of deplorables. >> the very next day, she said i should not have said that. you will see trump taking
7:11 am
vain -- >> reporter: the two clashed over foreign policy. kaine using ronald reagan's words to attack the nominee. >> he said the problem with proliferation some fool or maniac could trigger a catastrophic event and i think that is governor pence's running mate is. >> oh, come on! senator! senator! >> there was even beneath you and hillary clinton. that is pretty low. >> reporter: pence slammed clinton's record. >> in the wake of hillary clinton's tenure as secretary of state, where she was the architect of the obama administration's foreign policy, we see entire portions of the world, particularly the wide or middle east literally spinning out of control. >> when hillary clinton became secretary of state, saddam hussein was alive and 175,000 troops deployed in the battle tweak he between iraq and afghanistan? >> hillary said you haven't been paying taxes that makes me smart
7:12 am
he said. it's smart not to pay for our military and veterans? >> do you take -- >> the last thing i want to -- >> i do. >> joyful republicans were quick to declare that pence had won the debate, while democrats were more subdued saying simply that kaine had done his job and arguing that it's the job of a vp candidate, gayle, to get a little feisty. >> all right. feisty was the word. thank you, nancy. the presidential candidates apparently like what they saw last night. donald trump tweeted, mike pence won big. we should all be proud. hillary clinton wrote she is lucky to have a partner like tim kaine who stood up for our shared vision tonight instead of trying to deny it. major garrett has a reality check of the debate. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. that hillary clinton tweet was a not so subtle attempt to drive a post debate clinton theme namely that mike pence simply does not stylely defend trump and the aftermath a trump campaign said
7:13 am
not only was pence's defense sufficient but measured and they believe helpful in the polls. in the end the give and take, well, sometimes facts were among the first casualties. >> donald trump said here is what donald trump said. donald trump believes. >> reporter: throughout tuesday's debate, tim kaine tried to tie milk penke pence o comments like nuclear proliferation. >> more nations should get nuclear weapons. >> he never said that, senator. >> but trump has suggested he would be okay with countries in asia and the middle east becoming nuclear powers even saying it's inevitable. >> it's going to happen any way. only a question of time. >> reporter: kaine overstated his running mate's successes. >> she worked a tough negotiation with nations around the world to eliminate the iranian nuclear weapons program without firing a shot. >> eliminate the iran nuclear weapons? >> absolutely. >> reporter: the nuclear deal with iran was negotiate by
7:14 am
secretary of state john kerry and while it freezes the iranian nuclear weapons program, it leaves much of the country's infrastructure in place. >> so you like the 16 million? >> senator, that is nonsense. >> reporter: on immigration, pence denied that trump called for a deportation force to deal with undocumented u.s. residents. >> senator, we have a deportation forces called immigrations and customs enforcement. >> reporter: during the republican primaries, however, trump did suggest that the need for more aggressive tactics. >> you're going to have a deportation force and do it humanely. >> reporter: on entitlements -- >> donald trump wrote a book and he said social security is a ponzi scheme and privatization would be good for all of us. >> reporter: that book came out in 2000 but during this election, trump has vocally opposed such a plan. >> i will do everything in my power not to touch social security and leave it the way. >> reporter:
7:15 am
>> reporter: and back and forth about who said what about vladimir putin. kaine accused kaine and trump -- pence said precise lack of white house leadership has made putin a stronger force on the world stage. >> thanks, major. cbs news political director and "face the nation" moderator john dickerson joins us from longwood university. good morning. >> good morning. >> reporter: yesterday, you slighted the hippocratic oath which says do no harm. did the aggressiveness of tim kaine do harm and did mike pence do harm on content? >> reporter: yes, he was aggressive, wasn't he? at times, it felt like it was -- it was an interruption and occasionally a debate broke out. i think that it depends what your game was. clearly tim kaine's goal going into this was to keep the general election in mind and keep driving the issues of donald trump and what he said and keep those in the forefront. his demeanor and constant interruptions undoubtedly came
7:16 am
across as just too much for viewers. mike pence was all the things that donald trump was not in his debate. he was clearly -- he clearly studied and he was unflappable pretty much in the face of all of those interruptions. pence had some of his own but nothing to compete with pence. i think basically, you know, the big challenge for the trump campaign is not the style in the night, but mike pence's disconnect with his own candidate. he didn't rush to his defense when kaine attacked him and then there were those issues where pence said things that donald trump didn't say that donald trump did, indeed, did say. >> there were so many times that -- that senator kaine tried to make mike pence defend donald trump and the statements that he has made. but governor pence succeeded in deflecting, rather than being held account for them, right? >> reporter: that's right. he not only deflected, but then went back at hillary clinton. so the question is will the night be judged on what happened in the 90 minutes and the people
7:17 am
who watched the 90 minutes or the conversation afterwards in which the clinton campaign, no doubt, will bring up all of the instances in which pence and donald trump disagreed and the way they behaved and the difference between what mike pence said donald trump said and what he actually did say. >> performance trump content? >> reporter: right. exactly. and, you know, in debates, performance does content when it's the people at the top of the ticket but when it's the undercard, usually what happens is basically everybody moves back to the general election conversation with four days to go until the next debate. we will probably be through five or six other stories before we have that debate on sunday. >> yeah. gayle said something funny this morning. you said go -- >> we were talking about the interruptions in the morning in the green room. i said it was two cats in a bag and i felt for elaine quijano saying, gentlemen, please, gentlemen, please, to no avail. >> i'm worried they are going to
7:18 am
interrupt me now as i special he, there were so many interruptions last night! >> tim kaine was no more mr. nice guy. >> the second presidential debate is sunday night, october 9th, 8:00 p.m. eastern/8:00 p.m. central on cbs. attorneys representing the family of shooting victim keith lamont scott say the body in the dash cam videos do not support the police claims that the victim had a weapon. >> the world can now see his last moments. there is nothing we saw that changes our position in this. not aggressive. wasn't doing anything threaten the officers. again, no firearm visible in the footage. >> tomorrow's scheduled funeral for scott has been postponed because of hurricane matthew. federal investigators reportedly estimate a new jersey commuter train was traveling much faster than 10 miles per
7:19 am
hour speed limit when it crashed and investigators say it was going 20 to 30 miles per hour when it slammed into the hoboken terminal. one woman killed and a hundred hurt. the second black box was recovered yesterday and cell phone in the engineer's backpack. use searched aledly through hundreds of millions of e-mails at the request of the government. that is ahead. first, it's time to check your local weather.

the kremlin today said it resent the negative way putin and russia are posterior trared in america's election. twitter is likely to received act was 6:00 bids this week. ceo wants to tap into data from twitter's hundreds of millions of users. alphabet's google and walt disney company may also make a bid. twitter could cost more than $20 billion. waco tribune says sexual. baylor said in a statement patty crawford was disappointed in her role in implementing the recommendations from an independent investigation and looked into the school's handling of sexual assault allegations. crawford is now speaking out for the first time in an interview right here on "cbs this morning." but, first, here is the latest on the scandal that engulfed the school. for more than a year, baylor
7:33 am
university has been plagued by allegations it failed to handle cases of sexual assault committed by its students. one lawsuit called the school a hunting ground for sexual predators. back in may, a scathing report from private law firm pepper hamilton which was hired by baylor to independently review its past treatment of sexual assault, blasted the school's response to reports of sexual violence as wholly inadequate, with an overwhelming majority of cases not even getting a hearing. investigators painted a picture of a football program that was above the rules. but said there were institutional failures at every level. just this week, two women who say they were sexually assaulted while attending baylor joined six others in a lawsuit against the school. jasmine hernandez sued the university in march and she was raped by tevin elliott, a baylor football player, now serving a 20-year sentence. >> i think even more tragic that
7:34 am
the university is aware of all of these instances and had the opportunity to do the right thing, yet they choose time and time again to do the wrong thing. >> following its report, pepper hamilton gave baylor more than a hundred recommendations which the school adopted as mandates. the fallout led to the demotion and later resignation of school president ken starr. he is the former special prosecutor whose investigation led to the impeachment of president bill clinton. football coach art briles who helped transform the baylor bears into a top ten team, was also fired. >> i made some mistakes. there were some bad things that happened under my watch. i was the captain of this ship. the captain of the ship goes down with it. >> joining us now is patty crawford, baylor university's former title 9 coordinator and her attorney. patty, why did you resign? >> i think baylor set me up to fail from the beginning. in november of 2014 when i came,
7:35 am
and i continued to work very hard and the harder i worked, the more resistance i received from senior leadership. i increased reports by 700% over my time and it became clear that that was not something the university wanted. and in july, i made it clear in writing that i had concerns and that the university was violating title ix and my environment got worse. >> explain what you were charged with doing as the former title ix representative. >> just to ensure that students were not being discriminated against based on their sex or gender and that includes sexual violence. >> who specifically at the university prevented you from doing your job? >> senior leadership. a group of senior leaders that made sure that they were protecting the brand, i believe, instead of our students. >> pepper hamilton did this independent report and they accused baylor university to have systematically failed victims of sexual assault. you were trying to fix that. are you saying that continues to
7:36 am
this day? >> yes, i think it does. i filed a complaint to the federal government office of civil rights last week and to human resources and led me to a place on monday i had to make a decision, was i going to remain part of the problem or be part of the problem, or was i going to resign? specifically what are the allegations in that complaint? >> the allegations are that i never had the authority, the resources, or the independence to do the job appropriately which the department of education writes in its guidance for title 9 coordinators in universities. >> in august they talked about an interview you gave saying baylor had a good board and you had a good -- with the athletic department. i'm trying to figure out what went wrong and how it changed from august until now? >> there are wonderful board members, there are, and great partners across campus. the issue is i was trying to
7:37 am
continue to create compliance with title ix and i was trying to be hopeful that the university was going to listen. and the more i asked and the more i tried, the more resistance i received. i was being retaliated against for fighting against discrimination. >> retall yated how? >> the university making decisions that only title ix coordinator should make based on more protection for the brand rather than protect are our students. >> when you look back, would you do anything different? when you look back? >> right. i think i've learned so much about an institution, about trusting people, and i really trusted the university. i was loyal. but it came to a point where i couldn't have integrity with my work and i had -- >> patty -- >> a statement. >> i think is there a specific charge here that you should answer which is that two new women, as you know, are joining this lawsuit against the university.
7:38 am
and one of them alleges that in june 2015, while you were the title ix coordinator that your office did not perform an investigation into her allegations of sexual assault. >> right. >> do you feel that you're personally responsible in that case? >> i don't know the case because i think it was a jane doe so i'm not sure. like i said we have had hundreds of reports. i can say that we do everything we can to oblige by what the student wants' usually if students don't respond, i don't try to push, because i don't want to trigger them. >> if you are a student at a university and you have been sexually assaulted, what should you do and how should a university properly respond? what is the gold standard? >> i think the gold standard is a university trusting its title ix coordinator to do the right thing. >> every school has a title ix coordinator? >> any university or college that has financial aid should or have a title ix coordinator.
7:39 am
>> baylor said they are surprised about her action she has taken and given the her command for $1 million and her request to retain book and movie rights were very troubling. your response to that. >> let me say this. there was a mediation and texas law is quite clear that you cannot comment on what took place at the mediation or what was said at the mediation. >> but they have commented. it's out there she is asking for a million dollars and wants a book and movie deal it would appear. >> a desperate attempt to smear patty. what they have done is violated texas law. believe me, there is nothing i would rather tell you what went on in that mediation because it's in favor of patty but the law says you can't do that and we choose to follow the law unlike baylor university. >> we thank you both. this story to be continued for sure because patty's story is a part of an investigation. ahead how yahoo! reportedly
