the bullet just below the jaw line. he was alive when cops arrived that morning, keys in the ignition before being pronounced dead. >> i can't imagine a person wanting to hurt him. >> reporter: and he's a beloved law scholar and he was on the phone at the time. telling the person on the phone someone was in the driveway. this morning, this police report now unraveling more of the mystery, saying a neighbor, apparently not the person on the phone, heard a single bang, a gunshot. that neighbor called 911 and reported seeing what could be this silver prius drive away from the scene. just two days before he died, he posted a blog to his website about the death penalty. the same website he received threatening comments in 2012 after they said he censored anonymous comments. >> it's possible some of his scholarship and literature

created enemies. that's as possible as any other scenarios. >> reporter: he left behind two sons you should the age of 5, and an ex-wife, also an fsu professor. friends described the day she left as his pearl harbor. without warning she packed away and left while he was on a business trip. police say they spoke to many family members, and ten days after this shooting, they have a pretty firm grasp of how this happened, just not a clear grasp of who did it. they have no suspects, they say, no persons of interest. >> we want to bring in dan abrams to talk about this. what do you make of the new details? >> we know where the authorities quickly came out and said neighbors, don't worry. this is not a random killer. it's the little details, the lying in wait, the neighbor's

account, where the bullet was fired, that makes it look like a targeted hit. i'm interested in the make of the car. a toyota prius. what hitman environmentally sound? the bottom line is, it's true. it's a clue the authorities are going to look at. they're going to look at that, say to themselves, wait a second, this maybe is more likely to be someone in the university community than a person being called out to get involved in this case. so that becomes one of the many pieces here they have to put together. >> that is a very good point about the make of the car. but we see the car, go in, enhance, and try to get a picture of the killer. >> they tried to, and this is the best they can do. so the fact that they -- it seems, at least, weren't able to get a license plate, et cetera. if they get that, it's quick. either a stolen car or the person who you know you have to find. >> right. >> if they were able to get that, this would be a pretty close to open and shut case.

they don't have it yet. >> we know he was on the phone, there was someone in the driveway. we know he was alive for several hours. if he was able to say anything to investigators would they be able to use that? >> typically, hearsay, there's an exception called a dying declaration, this is what that would be, and no question it would be admissible. and now to the speedy driver charged with a new crime to get out of a ticket. he made a phoney call to try to divert the officer who pulled him over. we have the story. >> there's definitely someone going to get shot. please, please. >> listen to this desperate caller pleading with 911 to respond to what he says is a potential murder. >> please, please. >> but hold the phone. this morning instead of being harolded for heroism,

52-year-old julius lupowitz is accused of phoning in a fake emergency to get out of a speeding ticket. when the officer's back was turned, lupowitz called 911 urging them to send police to the scene of a gun-wielding assaila assailant. : definitely someone going to get shot. wingate and hollywood. >> adding to the sense of panic, the call disconnects. but he calls back. >> i swear, there's going to be a murder. there's a man with a gun. please. i just called. it's wingate and hollywood. i don't have an address. >> okay, what exactly is going on that you think is going to be a murder? >> there's a man with a gun. he's looking at me, but i don't think he sees i'm on a cell phone. i swear, i'm so scared i might get killed myself, please. >> reporter: other officers raced to the intersection. >> we responded like it was

real. >> reporter: but the officer stays put, and they track down the caller's name, announcing it over the radio. >> our officer was at the door of the vehicle and realized at that point this was the same person making the 911 calls. >> reporter: police say lupowitz made the calls in a desperate bid to get the officer to ditch him and race to the phoney emergency. it could be costly. instead of a $200 speeding ticket, he's now facing up to five years in jail. for "good morning america," lindsey davis. >> and now to justiginger zee. the personal forecast. >> it's a gift. and new york city, peeks of sunshine. any time you have sun before storm action, that fuels storms. when folks say it was sunny and a storm came up, that's how they

phone in my bed. just put it next to you on the floor or like a night stand or something. >> reporter: now as for her habit of sleeping with her phone, it's very common. a survey last year found 63% of those 18 to 29 say they sleep with their phone or tablet in the bed, and 29% of those 30 to 44 do it. i fall asleep with it in the bed. >> i fall asleep with it accidently in my hand. >> you should the covers? >> put the phone down. >> yeah. >> step away from the phone. >> i would say i -- my kids are watching, a little healthy fear of your cell phone so it's not attached to your body is not bad. >> knowing it can explode. >> thank you so much, mara. coming up, why eating before bed might actually be good for your health, and how you can do it without packing on the pounds. and a-lister undercover, who
