something that no one else did. bill: hank, he pitched a story about church buying up tax liens as a way of making money. >> the fountain of life has been snapping up lanes on people's property all over the state. a former member is outraged. >> and non- taxpaying entity that was the sickness of it. >> bill, when a person fails to pay the property taxes they sell there house at auction. the buyer turns as much

18 percent interest. and in legal and brutal practice. >> people don't pay their debt are frequently people have lost employment. are no longer

involved in the sales and have tried to return properties to foreclosured appointed individuals. the city tax's office told me today that nine properties are owned by companies using the church's address all were foreclosed recently as february 12th of this year and that's only in trenton. >> i don't know that i have any

issue with any entity buying up a tax lien and for closing. to me the people getting cheated are local taxpayers when you have somebody living in a rateable property and not paying their taxes. so is it just because it does aren't feel right, it doesn't sound right because it's a church? >> even if it is legal how do you preach to me on sunday and then foreclose on me on monday? >> take a look at these photos. if you recognize these three people they are involved in a burglary and theft. as of right now there's no other information. if you do recognize them please call the detective. >> 28-year-old rodney sober was arrested on wednesday for

allegedly pushing his way into a woman's bathroom and raping a 23-year-old woman here in manhattan at the turnmill bar on 27th street. a big problem here. silver was one of 13 convicted sex offenders living in bellevue men's shelter on 30th street. that shelter is within five blocks of six schools. it's also a couple of blocks away from this bar. i needed to learn more about the laws regarding this. i headed up here to the upper west side and i spoke to sintia. she told me some shocking facts. >> the studies that i did we found that less than 5% of all sex offenders happen in a public place by someone unknown to the victim. >> it's important to note that there is no known evidence that these shelters are actually helping these men and women recover from their illnesses or

from what they've been convicted of. she also said this is a huge problem across the country especially here in new york city. >> i certainly think that the state needs to take notice needs to pay attention to where these are not just for this particular case but there are many instances around the city where these halfway houses are located in proximity to schools and parks and so on. >> the discussion should be, why are they not still in prison. and you know, we had this whole issue when congress dick zimer in new jersey pushed megan's law nationally. once these guys are out and they need to register. if you need to register because you are potentially a threat to kids and women, you ought to still be behind bars. it makes me nuts. >> it's hard because these are citizens and they are returned back to society and they do need to live somewhere. it is important to note there are other shelters like this. far away from many schools and

public areas in new york city and they only have six sex offenders living there. you can count numbers all day is there a place we can put them where we would be safer? >> yes, prison. >> and rodney silver rb returning to prison. he already spent 20 years in prison. he will certainly be going back if he is convicted of this crime. >> they should be incensed that someone has to be raped for the system to come around. >> the problem with our criminal justice system is he did serve his time but the time he served does nothing to rehabilitate somebody with these issues. we're not talking about the right issue here. we need to create better system that could help these people. >> and until you can keep them behind bars. >> wor station manager diane doctor has the brilliant idea to

actually transform xanadu that governor christie called quote the ugliest damn building in the state, she would like to transport that into the port authority bus terminal. i attended the latest port authority board meeting and they talked about their plan for a completely new bus terminal. the cost was a whopping $11 billion. but during the meeting they were talking about the price being too high and now the highest price will be 10.5 billion. in discussing the price, commissioners wanted to know why not build a port authority terminal in new jersey rather than new york. so since there is some consideration to building a bus terminal in new jersey, why not build it in secaucus. she looked outside her window where she can see the meadowlands. we went to xanadu and we talked about her idea.

as you can see, this place is already under way. it's already costing billions of dollars and it's a perfect location. it's a confluence of transportation hubs. >> it would be cheaper to build it in new jersey and she compared the cost. so far the budget for getting xanadu as a shopping mall and entertainment center is a mere $2 billion. throw in a billion more to turn the train station into a regional transportation center and a couple more to add a second rail line. that's still much less than the 11 billion the port authority was contemplating spending on a new terminal in new york. >> xanadu is supposed to be a mega mall enter would be entertainment for people who are in the bus terminal. >> if it becomes a mall you're talking about private money. >> we wanted to get reactions, so i spoke to ray lesniak. >> i don't understand how a bus terminal for people to get to new york makes any sense if it's

in new jersey. the bigger problem here for commuters into new york is the fact that the port authority has been using transportation dollars for political give-backs. >> i want to know why no one is floating the idea of privatizing the transportation. when you look at the private companies that run buses from boston all the way to dc. it runs efficiently and cheaper and nobody is on the hook for it except for the commuter. >> show us your meatballs! >> meatballs is to food what music is to our culture. they wind our ways into our lives. >> tonight we're going out into philadelphia, just half a mile from the ballpark. little place, big taste. >> early in the morning,

weekend's coming. we got to make the meatballs, we've got to stay ahead of it. >> when you're bored what do you do? >> the more you eat. >> look at that. what do you like doing better? >> deep fry them. you've got to put a crust around the outside. >> no that's it. everything taste better fried, don't it? >> yeah. >> the boys had me do something that no one else did bill. eat the meatball. just the meat ball.
