surprise to many here in washington on a saturday afternoon, and it wasnt long before tributes came pouring in for supreme court justice antonin scalia. but also, the discussion about a successor and the political battle that is yet to come. shocking and surprising news on saturday. supreme court justice antonin scalia, dead at the age of 79, while on a hunting trip to texas. he was said to have gone to bed friday night not feeling well. he was found unresponsive saturday afternoon. traveling in california, president obama offered his condolences. president barack obama "for almost 30 years, justice antonin scalia was a larger than life presence on the bench, a brilliant legal mind with an energetic style." appointed in 1986 by president reagan -- he was the first italian-american to be seated on the high court. he was a strong, vocal conservative voice throughout

of roe v. wade, and a dissenting voice in last term's same-sex marriage cases . most recently, he was criticized for his comments regarding affirmative action. with the tributes -- questions about who will succeed scalia -- and who will appoint that person. president obama said, he intends to make that nomination in due time. but hours after the news broke, the republican presidential candidates took the debate stage in greenville, south carolina, hosted by c-b-s news -- and expressed their opinions on how things should play out. donald trump, r presidential candidate "it's up to mitch mcconnell and everybody else to stop it. it's called delay, delay, delay." jeb bush, r presidential candidate "there should be a consensus orientation on that nomination, and there's no doubt in my mind that barack obama will not have a consensus pick when he submits that person to the senate" there is the political side to this story, but there is also the personal. scalia was a devout catholic he is survived by his wife maureen, as well as 9 children, and many grandchildren. the white house says president obama on saturday night called one of scalia's sons,

in washington, i'm karin caifa. texas's abortion law is up for oral arguments in just two-and-a-half weeks ... and justice scalia's death has a huge impact on how the court interprets the law. the question now is whether hospital-like building standards and other requirements will put a burden on women trying to get an abortion. an attorney who lobbied for pro- choice texas last season says the impact of scalia's death passing cannot be overstated. the stakes of the election just got much, much higher. not only for women, but for latinos, for immigrants, for pretty much anyone who's got a stake in civil rights issues." that's because the supreme court now has 4 liberals ... 3 conservatives... and one wild card. anti-abortion advocates say they hope to shape the next few decades by running down the clock this year. storm team ten meteorologist

wsls ten's lindsey ward tell's the story of this man ... who now goes to jail every other week -- voluntarily. nats the first time rashad younger walked into the roanoke valley juvenile detention center he willingly. he was 16. he hung with a group of guys who stole a women's purse. it was an arrest .. that would lead to four more sentences behind bars. it sounds like a grim future .. was to be expected. for me as a young immature kid it was kind of like your street credit, like you get locked up it was a good thing. trouble began when his single on his hands. as she was at work we started hanging in the street, kids in the neighborhood and that led to smoking weed and hanging out and selling drugs and things like that.

beating up a drug snitch .. and violating probation smoking pot. everytime he got out jail .. he tried but just couldn't turn his life around. especially as a teenager, that's how i fell back into it, because it was like no one positive around to help me out or no one to guide me and steadily going back into the same environment. during rashad's third stint at coyner springs .. things would start to change. one sunday night .. pastor warren king came in to speak to the young men and made a connection with the quiet kid. quite honestly rashad was like many young men that i met down here. in fact, he didn't really stand out, he was very quiet, very reserved. he really wanted to connect with me. he said it seemed like i don't belong in here, because i was smart, intelligent, so he gave me his card and told me to call him when i got out. rashad did give him a call .. in fact, he started going to church

together, hung out together and actually tried to disciple him into following christ and teach him how to make some good decisions. rashad tried making good decisions .. but soon fell back into old habits .. like selling drugs on the streets. at 20-years-old .. he was heading jail again .. this time .. for two years behind bars. i wanted to change my life, better my life, so when i got out in 2012 i reconnected with pastor king. i called him i was like do you remember me. the two connected yet again .. laying the ground work for a friendship .. that continues today. it was some time later after he had put his faith in christ and after he had spent some time in jail that he really turned his life over to the lord and we reconnected and we've been serving together kind of ever since. serving together .. in the same place rashad served time. on sunday nights .. these two along with other volunteers .. stand before troubled teens and give their

i don't want them to make the same mistakes i made. like even when i got out how i failed the first time, just pretty much show them it's a better a life, you can go to college and you can be what you want to be in life instead of being in the system. when he comes into speak they have an immediate connection because they grew up in the same environments, had the same difficulties and same disadvantages, so he's going to be able to reach them in a way that perhaps i can't. rashad's been out of jail for four years now .. has a family .. full-time job .. and even his own business. but his passion .. is to one day stand behind a pulpit. i just try to focus on god and reading the bible, that's what keeps me in line and try to live a life like how jesus lived. pastor warren says .. rashad's story offers the young men ... hope. hope. i mean, a lot of the kids that are in here, these young people they don't see any hope, they don't

think rashad is living proof that there's hope and that they can make it. rashad once wore the same jail issued shoes and clothes .. but now he stands before these teens a changed man .. with plans to go from prison to preacher. if you're interested in volunteering to speak to teens at roanoke valley juvenile to our website for more information. now to jonathan kegges with a look at our forecast. if you have dinner plans this valentine's day you can thank dry air for holding off the snow for the time being. the earlier your dinner the better, but as we head into the latter portion of the evening and especially expect snow to start spreading across the area. the snow will pick up in intensity and coverage overnight

presidential politics at debate suddenly, the supreme court is front and center in 2016. the next president will likely have several appointees - justices thomas, ginsburg and breyer are all in their 70s and 80s. the current term ends in june and is one big question mark now. many cases are really close, five to four.

this is the only mugshot .. he has to show for years behind bars. wsls ten's lindsey ward tell's the story of this man ... who now goes to jail every other week -- voluntarily. nats the first time rashad younger walked into the roanoke valley juvenile detention center he didn't come here willingly. he was 16. he hung with a group of guys who stole a women's purse. it was an arrest .. that would lead to four more sentences behind bars. it sounds like a grim future .. but for this street kid .. it was to be expected. for me as a young immature kid it was kind of like your street credit, like you get locked up it was a good thing. trouble began when his single mom went to work and he had time on his hands. as she was at work we started hanging in the street, kids in the neighborhood and that led to smoking weed and

drugs and things like that. things .. that led to more crime. beating up a drug snitch .. and violating probation smoking pot. everytime he got out jail .. he tried but just couldn't turn his life around. especially as a teenager, that's how i fell back into it, because it was like no one positive around to help me out or no one to guide me and steadily going back into the same environment. during rashad's third stint at coyner springs .. things would start to change. one sunday night .. pastor warren king came in to speak to the young men and made a connection with the quiet kid. quite honestly rashad was like many young men that i met down here. in fact, he didn't really stand out, he was very quiet, very reserved. he really wanted to connect with me. he said it seemed like i don't belong in here, because i was smart,

card and told me to call him when i got out. rashad did give him a call .. in fact, he started going to church with pastor warren. we played basketball together, hung out together and actually tried to disciple him into following christ and teach him how to make some good decisions. rashad tried making good decisions .. but soon fell back into old habits .. like selling drugs on the streets. at 20-years-old .. he was heading jail again .. this time .. for two years behind bars. i wanted to change my life, better my life, so when i got out in 2012 i reconnected with pastor king. i called him i was like do you remember me. the two connected yet again .. laying the ground work for a friendship .. that continues today. it was some time later after he had put his faith in christ and after he had spent some time in jail that he really turned his life over to the lord and we reconnected and we've been serving together kind of ever since. serving together .. in the same place rashad served time. on sunday nights .. these two along with other volunteers

troubled teens and give their testimony. i don't want them to make the same mistakes i made. like even when i got out how i failed the first time, just pretty much show them it's a better a life, you can go to college and you can be what you want to be in life instead of being in the system. when he comes into speak they have an immediate connection because they grew up in the same environments, had the same difficulties and same disadvantages, so he's going to be able to reach them in a way that perhaps i can't. rashad's been out of jail for four years now .. has a family .. full-time job .. and even his own business. but his passion .. is to one day stand behind a pulpit. i just try to focus on god and reading the bible, that's what keeps me in line and try to live a life like how jesus lived. pastor warren says .. rashad's story offers the young men ... hope. hope. i mean, a lot of the kids that are in here, these

don't see any hope, they don't think they can change and i think rashad is living proof that there's hope and that they can make it. rashad once wore the same jail issued shoes and clothes .. but now he stands before these teens a changed man .. with plans to go from prison to preacher. if you're interested in volunteering to speak to teens at roanoke valley juvenile detention center you can log on to our website for more information. now to jonathan kegges with a look at our forecast. if you have dinner plans this valentine's day you can thank dry air for holding off the snow for the time being. the earlier your dinner the better, but as we head into the latter portion of the evening and especially expect snow to start spreading across the area.
