>> absolutely, anderson. we know that child protective services get involved in cases a lot of different ways. there are some individuals who are mandatory reporters, such as teachers and police officers and doctors, but also, anyone, a neighbor, you know, can make a report to child protective services, and they can do an investigation. they can talk to the parents, they can talk to the adults in this video, the school, if this child attends schools, medical providers, anyone that's involved in this child's life can be a part of this investigation for them to determine, is this child being abused or is there a possibility of abuse? and abuse is widely defined, not just physical abuse. it can be both mental and emotional abuse as well. >> but i mean, the adults in the video are not the child's parents. the man apparently is the child's uncle. cps can still intervene? they can intervene just in cases of bad parenting? >> absolutely. they can order the parents to go to parenting classes. they can order that the

but i would say this, anderson. the way he's handled it, and john king made this a standard two or three days ago the first 24 to 48 hours, he's handled it pretty well. i think he stood up and was contrite the way he should be. apologized the way he should. fired people the way he should. and so far there is no smoking gun. so i think absent some new evidence that is contrary to what we know now, he's going to ride it out as governor. i think that much is pretty clear tonight. what is unclear is on his political campaign for the presidency he's definitely take an hit. is it above the water line or below the water line? we don't know. he's going to be out looking for donors. today stanley truckenmiller, a very big hedge fund person in new york and major philanthropist, came out swinging for christie. thought that he was even more convinced he should be president [ laughter ] >> well, it's important for chris christie to keep that wall street support. it could be very helpful to him in the long run. so i don't think w

>> good evening, anderson.the first thing that came to a lot of people's minds here, because we all know florida and stand your ground. the sheriff of pascoe county says that his detectives immediately began looking into that along with the assistant state's attorney. and the sheriff says that there is no way, based upon that investigation, that the defense can use stand your ground. they say it does not apply here. >> what do you know about the two men, the victim and the suspect? >> you know, what's very interesting and tragic, is that in many ways these two men are very similar. both of them were veterans of serving in the u.s. navy. both of them love motorcycles. in the case of oulson, he loved dirt bikes. both of these men are described by their friends as great individuals. but somehow in the darkness of that movie theater, texting and an argument led to gunfire. and now you have an officer who was considered a pillar of the community facing the potential of life in prison and a young father dead, his wif

he was an amputee, anderson.o, the little boy went back in, he had made a left-hand turn to go to the back bedroom, and the fire chief, chris ebmeyer, told me today that what they now realize, that this little boy had his grandpa in his arms as if he was trying to lift him off the bed to take him out to safety. well, tyler's mother has spoken with some of the survivors. she now gives more of that story. listen to this. >> my sister had his hand, and i guess he let go of her and tried to get to my dad, and she opened the window and he wasn't there anymore. she couldn't see and she was going like this through the smoke, and all i could keep thinking about is how he couldn't breathe and how scared he must have been. >> a source close to the case tells me the autopsies are ongoing because two of the three victims cannot be identified because of the intensity of the fire. and anderson, they tell me dna may have to be used. >> do we know anything about the condition of the other people who were in the trailer? how are

>> reporter: anderson, it sure did. when i got out here early this morning just a couple hours after this fire began i thought today was going to turn out a lot differently. but firefighters and residents so far today have really caught a break. you can see all of this hillside behind me that has completely burned. and you can see some of of firefighters, the crews that are up there on foot. they have just come in in the last couple of hours to try to control these lines. but what you've seen all day long is an aggressive air assault with fixed wing aircraft and helicopters dropping water and fire retardant on these flames. what they were very concerned about is these unseasonably hot temperatures, above 85 degrees today. humidity less than 10%. and there were winds forecast as high as 25 to 35 miles per hour. so you can see all of these homes over here to my cameraman mike love's left. we can see those homes. the fire got within 100 yards of those homes earlier today. but because the wind remained relatively calm this

the other part of this is essentially political, anderson. you have democrats and republicans, a lot of them running scared this year because they're running for re-election and they don't want to cast votes that may come back to hount them. that is why officials say more than you've heard the president ever before in previous state of the unions, he's going to be talking about executive actions tomorrow night. >> is there a theme for this speech tomorrow? >> reporter: well, they're talking about expanding opportunity, they're talking about jobs, they're talking about the economy. this is going to be a lot more focused on domestic items than on foreign affairs, officials say. and in recent weeks, anderson, you've heard the president talk about how he wants to combat income inequality. he mentions some of this in a vine video today, a quick, six-second vine video. the words are changing a little bit here at the white house. they're really talking more now about expanding opportunity for all americans, but you're going to hear, officials say, t

i assumed i'd get a voicemail and in fact i got sergeant anderson. maybe i was lucky, maybe the police department's incredible, as i now believe it is. i think it was a combination of both. sergeant anderson took my call and couldn't have been more helpful. it was a saturday. he told me if i could get the san francisco here that he would give me the resources for what was effecttively a sting operation. i couldn't believe my luck. a normal citizen like me could engage the sf police department like this. i was truly amazed. fast forward 12 hours, sting operation happened, my friend jerry jerry and i had sat at a subway with police interrogating them, trying to get answers on where other items might have been, and eventually the police officers raiding their house in the east bay. recovering not only my bike but other stolen items. the district charged them with grand theft that day. in conclusion, this is a great example of real police citizen partnership, working together to make this city a better place. i have a newfound respect for the sfpd, somet

anderson? >> has the hospital responded? >> reporter: we have reached out to the public hospital there in ft. worth. they are actually represented by prosecutors for the district attorney's office in ft. worth. we've reached out to both of them. they told us tonight they would have no comment before the hearing on friday afternoon. >> all right, ed, i appreciate the update as disturbing as it is. i want to bring in our legal analyst sunny hostin and mark geragos and obgyn host of the health and heels broadcast lisa masterson. dr. masterson, this is disturbing stuff but it may impact this court ruling. the fetus's lower extremities are deformed to the extent that gender can't be determined. apparently the fetus also suffers from water on the brain, hydrocephalus. and it appears there are further abnormalities, i think it's a possible heart problem. i think fluid on the brain not water. can you explain these issues how serious they are, what it means? >> they're very serious for the fetus. actually just the fetus. we don't hav

>> reporter: good evening, anderson.t thing that came to a lot of people's minds here, because we all know florida and stand your ground. the sheriff of pascoe county says that his detectives immediately began looking into that along with the assistant state's attorney. and the sheriff says that there is no way that the defense can use stand your ground. they say it does not apply here. >> what do you know about the two men, the victim and the suspect? >> reporter: what's very interesting and tragic is that in many ways these two men are very similar. both of them were veterans of serving in the u.s. navy. both of them love motorcycles. in the case of olson, he loved dirt bikes. both of these men are described by their friends as great individuals. but somehow in the darkness of that movie theater, texting and an argument led to gunfire. and now you have an officer who was considered a pillar of the community facing the potential of life in prison and a young father dead, his wife and young daughter absolutely shattered

but these cars, anderson, everywhere. thousands of them. >> are there worries that the water on the road could refreeze? >> reporter: yes. that's a good question. but the trucks are another big thing, too. all the trucks are starting to get moving along these interstates now, too. they were clogged up. it is now getting back to freezing. it's below freezing, in fact. and where there is moisture right behind us and around us it is slick. it's a sheet of ice. on the main roads, though, they've finally got all the salt trucks and grit trucks out. the main roads seem to be pretty dry and moving pretty well. it's the side streets that are going to be the problem. you can get home on the freeway. but once you get off you've got to watch where you're going. that's going to be a problem tomorrow morning, anderson. >> was this just a matter of they just weren't prepared, they hadn't planned out for this kind of eventuality. schools were opened, businesses were opened during rush hour people going home and the highways got clogged?

anderson, i heard you were going to get a winter coat.e truck, the truck op are the ones who actually make this whole thing work. >> here we are up at the platform. anderson cooper 360. we're keeping warm and having a good time. lights are on. shows are happening. >> okay. here's the deal. we're trying to set up for where i'll be live where you'll see me on tv. these guys now are trying to figure out how i can stand out here, hopefully not get soaked in new orleans, have a good time, show you the music, bring you the feel, the soul of the city and ring in 2014. we'll see you tonight. >> double ear plugs in for the noise. when we're not on air, we're all back here. >> so as you can tell, it's kind of loud out here. come midnight, this place is going to be ridiculously loud. part of the problem is making sure everybody can hear each other including the two people, anderson and kathy, standing right here. it's going to be hard for them to hear. i have to make sure they hear each other. >> what? what? >> i brought you to the bustling coastal

this kind of petty, vindictive -- >> this isn't petty, anderson. this is isn't but petty. >> you say this goes beyond politics as usual? >> when emergency vehicles can't get through, when people can have heart attacks, when people lose their jobs because they don't show up on time, i've never witnessed anything like this. the idea of putting this into a prank category is rank and wrong. this is a grievous, terrible thing. >> carl, you're such an icon, and i wonder if people liken these problems to watergate and i wonder if you feel that diminishes the legacy of watergate? you say this is serious travesty, but it certainly doesn't compare to watergate. >> apples and oranges, as most comparisons are, and they take place in different times. but what this is, this is officials at a very high level, knowingly did something to endanger people's lives. citizen's lives. that's a terrible thing. that's different from watergate actually. watergate was -- >> there is no evidence -- nothing has emerged so far that shows that governor christie knew about it. >>

>> reporter: it is pretty miserable, anderson, that's true. it's negative 15 right now, but if you factor in the windchill, which is really the problem, it is negative 39, they said right now. so, that's what it feels like. it is brutal with the wind around here. now, the relief is coming at the end of the week. by thursday, it should be like one whole degree or 3 degrees, then it will go up to 19 degrees, and that, i have to say, sounds actually pretty good right now, anderson. >> now, i understand it's so cold there, you can actually throw hot water in the air and it turns to snow? is that true? >> reporter: i saw this last night for the first time, blew my mind. we've got some hot water here for you. let's see if it works, anderson. live tv. here we go. >> that's crazy! >> it has to be really, really hot, and if you do that, you get the mist. >> that is crazy. >> an unbelievable science project. >> i thought you were clutching some warm coffee. i was going it make fun of you because i've never seen a reporter clutching coffee during a live

it doesn't work. >> do you see, anderson?'t talking about -- we were talking about -- what we were talking about is people just being friends with exes. >> and going out to lunch. >> i think it's nice to be friends with people you've had significant relationships with. >> anderson, that's of the age of fantasy. >> i told you! >> it's not. >> if you've had a relationship -- >> if you've crossed the sexual line with someone. >> and you said, okay, it's not for us, goodbye, i'm all for that, nothing wrong with that. but don't try to hold on. >> leave it in the past, anderson. >> i'm just talking about being friends with somebody. it's nice to have history with someone. >> the person that you are now involved with is going to be jealous. there is something -- >> isn't that a weakness of the person you're involved with? >> no! >> no. the weakness is that the other person is to hold on to something that is past already. >> yeah. >> see, i don't buy that. >> it's the near temptation of sin. once you've crossed that line with someone

but it's incredible, anderson, and we've been talking about this all day. this speech would not have happened without edward snowden, this debate, and arguably some of these changes would not have happened without edward snowden. so in a sense, victory for that programmer who bursts on to the scene last year. >> let's dig deeper from the guardian paper. the snowden leaks brought this story front and center. he's the author of the upcoming books, "no place to hide." also andy card, who is president of the creation of some of these programs, the chief of staff in the bush administration. >> glenn, do you believe the president went far enough in what he said today? >> no, not remotely. there were a few proposals that i think are positive steps, but the crux of it, why should the communications data of hundreds of millions, billions of people every day be collected and stored and have the potential to be monitored and analyzed has been left unanswered by the president. that's an activity that the nsa will continue even with all the proposals are implemented. >>
