golden says he did not uses race-based norms in davenport's evaluation. find he suffered cognitive impairment? >> absolutely. first of all, using the nonrace norms, he even met the nfl qualifications for being impaired. looking at the pattern of his test results were very consistent with someone who's head multiple head traumas or cte or other brain disorder. >> reporter: the settlement administrator approved dr. golden's conclusions but the league appealed. the nfl has maintained that it did not require doctors like you to use the norms, the race-norming process on players, that they left the decision to you. is that true? >> in his case too, be specific, they wrote me and said you need to rescore it using the black norms. i said, in a not very nice note, that basically was that would be racist to do the way they wanted to and if they wanted to go to court, i would be more than glad to testify for him. >> reporter: in response to questions from abc news, the nfl said it does not play a role in independent clinition examinations and does not require them

andis said that they davenport dedicated himself to the future as he raced home to tell marsha who would be the next president of the united states. moreover after willkie and henry luce accompanied by skip akel claire who met face-to-face. the publisher decided his initial confidence had been well-placed. he resigned his $75,000 to invest presidency on july 1, 1939 effectively reassuring anxious son phillip giving up such a good job and adequate return was assured. he returned to the practice of law in january with the firm of miller owen and bradley with himself replacing the retiring governor nathan miller is senior partner in the rear can ask her arm of willkie owens oda sabar and gallagher. it would keep the willkie special campaign trail train on schedule. nathan miller years afterwards offered a summation of this paradoxical -- parties were to him explain to the new york governor and mere instruments not for political advancement or power but to serve human needs. when does well-connected new sponsors helped him prepare a call to action a brass ring declaration and april 1840 issu

a lawsuit eventually put an end to davenport's policies in rutherford county.o use in other places. here is a video. >> there's also video visitation equipment between the lobby and detainee housing to minimize any security risk between visitors and detainees. >> davenport declined to be interviewed for this piece. msnbc has also reached out to her. and now we have mirva knight, one of the reporters on this investigation. your colleague ken armstrong wrote you guys got 38 hours of audio interviews and watched more than 100 public meetings spanning more than a decade. there's so much to this article that is just mind-boggling and this investigation. first of all, where she said she was heartbroken by the 7-year-old, but the 8 and 9-year-olds is standard operating procedure apparently. how is it that the community has not been more outraged? >> well, we heard about it because i live here in tennessee. i knew about the incident in 2016 and i covered the lawsuits that followed. it's been a long kind of perk lading case that has led to this moment right here where y

yes, overseeing all of this was judge donna scott davenport, and it goes up incredibly high. up to the state that did not catch this illegal filter system. one example is the tennessee department of children's services licenses juvenile jails every year. they came every year, sometimes twice a year, and inspected this jail. was in black and white. in its standard operating procedures, it never once flagged it. >> go ahead, finish your statement. >> that's one example. the other thing is that the state no longer produces any statistics around juvenile court, so that number you cited being ten times higher, right now we don't get any reports about juvenile court, so we have no idea what is happening in this state at all. >> now, i want to make sure that we give you judge davenport's response to this accusation. as mentioned in your piece, at first she declined your interview request, to which you attached 13 pages of questions. and then previously we know she told lawyers that she, quote, can't tell law enforcement what to do. and also told a local newspaper that she wants the

the other part of this is davenport also footnoted county's head jailer who has been in power almostenport since 2000, and she had her own screening process for children called the filter system that was pulling in really large numbers of children into the detention center in violation of the law. i can get into more detail. the story gets into lots of details. it's complicated, but in essence it was these two things in tandem. >> one of the details i want to get into, the kids arrested over the fight that was on a youtube video were charged of, quote, criminal responsibility for conduct of another. that's a charge that doesn't exist in tennessee law. all 11 of the kids arrested for being jailed under a filter system. how does something like this happen in the first place? talk to me about that charge and sort of as you described the system and the various failings of the system, where, then, the oversight should've been. >> yeah. so the charge of criminal responsibility is not an actual charge. it's a prosecutorial theory. in essence, someone can be charged with assault who is prese

. >> the areas that will be most affected will be boulder creek, and the north coach, the davenport area as well. >> some we talked with said they are taking a wait and see approach. >> if it's not safe to stay, we will not stay. >> they are going to have extra patrols in the evacuation areas to make sure there's no looting. >> as marianne mentioned, there's a shelter opening. rv parking is available. in san mateo county there will be a shelter opening at 8:00 this morning at half moon bay high school. >>> in anticipation of today's rain many businesses are closing. the oakland zoo is closed today because of the weather. anybody that already paid for a ticket will get a full refund. the oakland zoo prides itself on being open year round and tiply only closed on thanksgiving and christmas. the alameda county fair will close because of the storm. it opened on friday. it usually runs in june but was postponed because of the pandemic. assuming the weather will cooperate, it will reopen tomorrow. you can track the storm in the palm of your hand by just downloading the nbc bay area app on your

that will be most affected is going to be boulder creek, areas of ben lomond, felton, north coast, davenport area as well. >> reporter: some we talk with say they are talking a wait and see approach. >> push comes to shove we think it's not safe, we're not going to say. >> reporter: the santa cruz department said they will have evacuation areas to make sure there is no looting. in felton, marianne favro, nbc bay area news. >>> marianne mentioned the shelter in felton. it is opening at 8:00 tomorrow morning. the san lore enowe valley, parking is available there. san mateo a shelter will open at half moon bay high school. in sonoma county some people are already digging trenches to direct the rain and keep it from causing more damage after last year's fires. and in san francisco, sandbag stations very busy today. here's nbc bay area's sergio quintana. >> reporter: when they ventured out to their property near gurnville, they knew they needed to do work to prevent rainwater and mud and rock slides. >> this is the only access to our homes where we lost two homes, three generations in our family.

second street in a town called silvis, illinois, which is right across the mississippi river from davenport it's about 2½, 3 hours from chicago by highway. but this was a street that, during the mexican revolution, the railroads were looking for workers because the united states had sent so many of the young working males off to world all of us are looking for in our lives, peace, prosperity, and at better life for ourselves and for our kids. and they brought them up there to be in cold like they had never known before, snow and ice on the river, but to work on the railroads and these people came and they invested themselves to make a new home and new lives for themselves, and it was originally 22 families who, unfortunately, they found good things, the jobs, but they also found discrimination and prejudice, a burgeoning ku klux klan that would burn crosses over their homes, the kids would be called names at school. they weren't allowed to attend the same catholic church that the rest of the people in the city did. and eventually, they were kicked off of the railroad yards because other peo

i planned on parking in a parking lot for the davenport gap.e the appalachian trail comes out of the great smoky mountains. as i was getting ready to park down there, i passed the parking lot. so i was doing a u-turn and passed the parking lot and the vehicle came up and the person driving it reached their hand out of the window and waived me down. -- waves me down. i stopped and started to have a conversation with the person in the truck. the person noted to me that they were lost. i'm not from that area so i told him, i'm not from around here, maybe i can help you. what are you looking for? >> he said he was trying to get to california which i wasn't expecting. i thought he was lost locally. then he started telling me about the situation with his girlfriend. what he said was he and his girlfriend had a fight and she called him and told him that she loved him and he needed to get out to california to see her. and so i told him -- jesse: was he acting stressed out or cool and collected? what was his demeanor. >> i would say he was acting weird.

. >> reporter: two black former players, kevin henry and najeh davenport, filed suit against the nfl last year, accusing the league of "avoiding paying head injury claims based on a formula that discriminates on the basis of race." that suit was eventually dismissed, but not before the judge ordered the nfl and attorneys for former players into mediation to address the concerns raised about race norming. >> i'm banged up. i'm beat up. and the part that you don't see is up here. you don't see how my brain is beat up. they don't hit me less or harder because i'm black. >> reporter: a spokesperson for the nfl stating this summer that while they "are committed to eliminating race-based norms in the program and more broadly in the neuropsychological community, there is no merit to the claim of discrimination." and david, the settlement agreement stating the league will automatically rescore all eligible tests of retired players for whom those race-based norms were applied. that could mean millions of dollars of additional payouts for former nfl players and their families. david? >> all ri

davenport but i say that's bullshit. who's to say who's right? >> here's a bigger question -- do we have to keep texas as a state? why does every state have to remain a state? we should be able to revote on texas the same way -- just trade out texas, give us puerto rico, don't even have to change the plan. >> trevor: you want to vote out texas? >> what would we miss? texas toast, dallas cowboys, beyonce, and then that way texas already they own queen. that, but i think you might start a war. used the other side stuff? the spelling bee. if we're going to talk about who lost, who should have won, me, spelling bee, central park elementary, fourth grade, misspelled coleslaw. >> trevor: how did you spule it? >> cold slaw. ( laughter ) true story, why are you laughing. >> trevor: that's not a bad spelling. >> if you never heard of cold slaw, we should rewrite history. i won the spelling bee. you know what they gave the white boy? mountain. i heard of a mountain, never cold slaw. would go good with this sandwich, though. >> trevor: i feel you there, man

and it was called the davenport gap. as i was parking there, i actually went past the parking lot.rror. i was doing a he three-point turn in the road, it was a fairly country road so i made the turn. as i was coming back towards the parking lot, another vehicle was coming towards me. they flashed their lights and the gentleman waved his hand at me. so i stopped and we spoke. so we were side-by-side, our cars. he was in a pickup truck sitting right next to me. and as soon as i looked at him, he looked like he was messed up or something. but it took him a minute to ask me anything. he looked at me and said, man, i'm lost. i was thinking, i'm a hiker, i'm out here, i'm lost, i missed that parking lot, maybe that's what he is too. i said i'm not from around here, where are you trying to go? he said man, i'm trying to go to california. i was like wow, that's an odd thing to say. i thought to my c he said my girlfriend and i got into a fight but she called me and told me that she loves me and i've got to get to california to see her. and i said well, i-40 is next to us. you can get on i-

in davenport, iowa, a judge side with the company. there were only four protesters allowed at each entryway, which greatly curtails what it means to do a picket line. because of that, today members of the union and members of the local community showed up to support workers at the local facility. instead of at the plant, they did it as a rally at the local courthouse. it's been a busy week of direct action all over the country this week. not just on the issue of labor. this is right outside the white house yesterday. five young climate activists say they are basically starting a hunger strike, demanding that joe biden refused to appease centrist democrats like joe manchin and kyrsten sinema who are radically trying to scale back and scale down his initiatives. they want president biden to commit to leaving the climate parts of the bill intact. they started the hunger strike, the five of them, yesterday. it continued today, outside the white house. they're taking in no food, no liquid other than water. outside the white house today the

who better to answer these questions than coral davenport, energy and environment policy correspondent she knows every aspect of our climate policy, and has been covering this from the outset. great to have you with us. thank you for your time this evening. i know that for us who follow what is happening in d.c., we don't even know what's in this new bill and what is reportedly being removed from it, what is being put in it. what do we know at this time about what is actually in the bill specifically for climate change? >> so there was one big climate provision that the president had really hoped to bring to this conference in glasgow. called clean electricity program. if they had been in the bill and had passed into law, the program would have paid electric utilities. second largest source of pollution in the u.s., paid them to rapidly shut down cool and gas-powered plants and replace with wind, solar, nuclear, clean energy and force those that didn't do that to pay a penalty. multiple analysis found had that piece be introduced into law it would have been by far the most mow powerful

davenport, iowa, a judge yesterday sided with the company limited the number of pictures that are allowede the facility, only for protesters in each and through a, which greatly curtailed for the means to do a picket line. because of that, today members of the union and members of the local community showed up to support members of that community, inside to union i think plant, they did as a rally outside the courthouse. it's been a busy week of direct action, all over the country this weekend, not just on the issue of labor, this was right outside the white house yesterday, five young climate activists say they are starting a hunger strike, demanding that president biden basically refused to appease centrist democrats like joe manchin or kyrsten sinema, who are trying to radically scaled back and scaled down his build back better bill, that includes all of his climate initiatives. these protesters want biden to leave the price of the climate bill intact, they started this hunger strike, the five of them continued today, they're taking no food, no liquids other than water. outside the whi

we have a freeze warning that didn't kick in until midnight from rockford all the way back toward davenportreas. out west, a lot of sunshine. 80s. in phoenix, 85. 60s on the east coast. 60s on the west. absolutely fantastic. we can break it down and have a little fun with some of the names here. how about for all those witches out there in salem? we're looking at some good weather although a little bit cloudy. then of course you've got areas such as bat cave. you've got casper, wyoming, near those warnings with the snowfall. you've got areas such as death valley. really this is going to be nice, jim. make sure the kids have a trick to get the treat. one of my favorite jokes of all time, what's a zombie's favorite halloween candy? that would be butterfingers. get out there. absolutely perfect after last year's misery. >> mine was always kit kats. i always loved the kit kats. thanks for not putting the bad apple in the bag for us. we appreciate it. >>> quick programming note. an all new episode of this is life coming up tonight. lisa ling investigates private militias. here's a preview. >> on

. >> the middle tennessee state university says davenport is no longer affiliated with the universityll review. as you have discussed, this is a problem that's much larger. what is the fundamental solution to this? >> fundamentally the solution to this is it has to be addressed as the larger issues the country faces, but that's not an analysis of where we are because criminal justice reform has been elusive in this country. so in a sense this notion of asking a state judicial ethics organization to eyeball a situation like this and to impose discipline on a judge, that can speak very loudly. it puts other judges on notice, civil suits can be effective and even criminal prosecution where it's appropriate. it's not a stretch to believe that doj is taking a look at this situation. you know, they've run a very aggressive docket looking into those police departments and prison systems that are violating the rights of people in this country. doj civil rights division has asked for about a $25 million budget increase that would give them 60 more prosecutors next year to go over these practic

oz: she shot to fame in the 19 90's as fashion icon dion davenport in the hit film "clueless," a moviecome a pop cult classic. in he cent years he's been

arresting and jailing kids for years all under the watch of one judge, juvenile court judge donna scott davenport the county's only juvenile court judge since 2000 when the court began, and she has a really outsized role. she oversees the courts, and she oversees the juvile jail. and up until this incident, she directed police on what she called "our process" for arresting kids, which basically was every child who was arrested even for something minor like this or like truancy, they must first go to the jail. the judge told law enforcement this explicitly in a memo. then the second part of this is that, once they got to the jail, they were subjected to something called the filter system, which was implemented by the jailer lynn duke, and that was an overly broad assessment of what a child was deemed -- whether a child was deemed a true threat. i can talk more about that, but it was overly broad, it was illegal and it was happening for decades. >> reporter: you know, there's alot of discussion about this topic of what incarceration does. the judge in this case has argued on radio shows tt ldthsi c

our coral davenport is joining us on this.n going to keep the president to this and cut out one of these key provisions? >> well, we know and we have seen all along what manchin wants he gets. he's one of the crucia ones on the entire package. he has a ton of leverage. this policy of clean electricity program, it really is the core of the climate provision. it's designed to pay electricity to shutdown coal and gas plants and sort of slowly year over year transition to win solar nuclear clean energy. end game for this program is cut the use of the fossil fuels that is are apart of his home state economy and you know i think for several weeks, there was a sense that maybe senator manchin would be able to -- that would kind of throw a lifeline to those fossil fuels, didn't seem to happen. it seems like over the weekend, the people that i talked to who said this thing is really dead. and an answer to other questions, there are other provisions in there. there are about $300 billion in tax incentives and benefits for renewable ener

host: to zach in davenport, iowa, democrats line. caller: good morning.he top story to me was joe biden on cnn town hall last night. it's when he said when it comes to taiwan, we will go to war. last i heard the president is totally in control of foreign policy. host: did that surprise you had a he -- that he said that? caller: i think he was maneuvering that way when he said we have a chip shortage and trying to tamp down our expectations on the economy. i think that we've been going that direction with the automobile sales and so the fact that we have to protect taiwan is definitive. the chinese have been building iowans in the middle of the south china sea and we only have aircraft carriers and those are vulnerable. islands can't be sunk but aircraft carriers can. host: thanks for pointing out that story, jack. there's a follow-up from china. china vows no concessions on taiwan after biden comments p. china on friday, today, said there's, quote, no room for compromise or concessions over the issue of taiwan following a comment by joe biden that the u.s
