>> first at 4:00 this afternoon, coming out of the shadows, a local woman opens up for the first time about a sex assault at the hands of a massage therapist. she decided to go public after a report from buzzfeed that claimed sexual assault is an epidemic at massage envy stores across the country. mark segraves has her story now first at 4:00. mark? >> reporter: yeah, good evening. epidemic is exactly the word that this woman used to describe what's happening at massage envy stores. she was the victim here at this massage envy in tenleytown who in september stood here on this sidewalk and called police saying she had been sexually assaulted. that's where it started, but it has become now a national story. three more women here in d.c., after seeing our reports, came forward saying the same man had sexually assaulted them while they were getting massages. and now as buzzfeed is reporting, nearly 180 women nationwide in oregon, california, peyl

stories, that they were sexually assaulted while getting a massage at a massage envy location. and in many cases, these women are suing the company because they say the company had knowledge that their employee had assaulted other women and continued to allow him to see clients. and when we asked the victim here in washington, d.c. what she thought about that, here's what she had to say. >> the magnitude of the amount of people who have been affected by this is greater than massage envy realizes or cares. it's frustrating, with the media and that population of this article, that more women will come forward and we're going to learn a lot i think here in the next few months. >> reporter: now, massage envy locations are franchises. we called the franchise owners of the locations here in maryland and d.c. they declined to talk to us today. the national headquarters did

that they have a zero tolerance for this kind of behavior from their franchisees. but they would not specifically address the allegations that managers may have known beforehand of previous assaults. you will also recall we reported on a woman at the bowie location in maryland, which is also owned by these same franchise owners. she told me this morning she is also filing a civil lawsuit. wendy, bag to you. >> mark segraves thank you, mark. president trump reviving an old campaign line during a ceremony honoring native american white house. he knocked senator ee liz belgt warren during his speech and she responded moments later on msnbc. >> you were here long before any of us were here, although we have a representative in congress who they say was here a long time ago. they

but i like you. >> it is deeply unfortunate that the president of the united states cannot even make it through a ceremony honoring these heroes without having to throw out a racial slur. >> during today's white house press briefing, press secretary sarah sanders huckabee said it was ridiculous to call the president's comments a racial slur. >> scott macfarlane with breaking news at the live desk. a seemingly shaken al franken came out before the cameras today, happened a short time ago. and he apologized ones again for a series of sexual harassment allegations. >> i am going to have to be much more conscious when in these circumstances, much more careful, much more sensitive,

not happen again. >> this is the first time the two-term minnesota senator has spoken to the national press in more than a week. eight days ago los angeles news anchor leeann tweeden claimed franken forcibly kissed her during a skit and later groped her on an airplane. other woman said franken grabbed them during photo ops, too. the senator said he didn't remember what happened during those photo shoots. franken says he plans to get back to work. his case expected to go before the senate ethics committee in the coming weeks and he says he plans to cooperate. wendy? >> scott macfarlane. just hours after announcing their engagement, prince harry and meghan markle sit down for their first interview as a couple. some refer to the flame hair prince as a wild child. markle is a biracial actress from the united states and on the impending royal wedding, we love royal weddings. >> it looks like it will be a sin

after duchess kate gives birth to her third child. way to go, meghan markle. you have the wedding possibly in may. let's not get ahead of ourselves, let's not open up our calendars and hope for an invite. we all want to know how did prince harry do it. >> it happened a few weeks ago, early this month here at our cottage, a standard typical night. >> a cozy night. what were we doing, roasting chicken, trying to roast a chicken. it was just an amazing surprise. it was so sweet and natural and very romantic. >> so, this morning the pair made their first appearance in the white garden at kensington palace. this is a garden that was made in memory of harry's mom, princess diana. we are seeing them for the first time officially as an engaged couple. now, the coat ms. markle was wearing for the op was quickly

let's call them slugts. they found out it was line the label, a canadian designer. that site promptly crashed quickly. >> what about the ring? >> oechh, my goodness, we've se so many shots of the ring. it's from the queen of england's jeweler. two are from princess diana's personal collection. one is from bots wanna. that's where harry feels most like himself and where the couple spent time together camping under the stars. >> great. >> the whole thing, too? he was fixed up with her by a mutual friend. they won't say who the mutual friend is for their privacy. next time a friend tries to fix you up with somebody, you should do it, it could be a prince. also possibly could be a frog, but maybe could be a prince. >> i love that. and it seems like it's been a bit of a whirlwind relationship,

>> i love that she's mixed race. they were sake snarky things about that. >> there are terrible trolls. the royal family looks like a modern family. >> thank you, tommy. >> now to a story you will only see on news4. a couple facing decades behind bars, accused of preying on a vulnerable elderly man. prosecutors say they stole more than a million dollar from him. the crime not even uncovered until after his death. our pat collins is live now in the aspen hill area where the victim lived. pat? >> reporter: pat, he hired a woman to clean his house. and in the end, she cleaned him out. the victim here gusto v shapiro, he was 95 years old. he had just lost his wife of 70 years. they say he was lonely, depressed, delusional. he hired this n,

molena, to clean his house here in aspen hill. prosecutors said she tricked him into putting her name on his bank account, to putting her name on the deed to his house. this house he lived in since 1957, and then they say molena and her husband began siphoning out mr. shapiro's money, more than a million dollars. this is how prosecutors describe what happened. >> it's elder abuse. it's financial elder abuse and it's theft. this is a theft by deception, theft by defrauding and theft by coercion. >> reporter: so, how did they do it and what did they do with all that money? more coming up. news4 at 5:00. pat, back to you. >> all right, an unconscionable thought and story. pat collins, thank you. well, now to the forecast, it sure doesn't feel like the end of november.
