don? >> all right. we'll get back to you throughout the evening with the headlines of the day. i want to get over to our ed lavendara now near james holmes' apartment building which is evacuated today because of something very frightening that police found. ed, aurora police say they are sure as hell angry and that's a quote from them. >> reporter: well, the reason they were saying that is because according to the police chief here in aurora there was a trip wire that was along the front of the door entrance into james holmes' apartment, which is that red brick building you see just over my shoulder. the window they had been looking in through is just on the other side of it. but there was a trip wire along that door and officials say that had someone just unsuspectingly opened that door they would have been seriously injured if not killed because of all of the various explosives and other trip wires that are inside the apartment. it has taken them more than 24 hours to finally get a handl

don, back to you. >> okay. ed, before we -- before i let you go, i want you to talk about more about the people who are there and about the booby trapped apartment. they said yesterday that they thought that all of the explosives were out of the apartment, but are the people that you are speaking to, are they comfortable going back into their homes at some point? >> they have been. in fact, all of the buildings around here in the immediate area that had been evacuated for initially after police and investigators arrived here on the scene shortly after taking james holmes into custody, and you have seen a lot of the people coming back here, and of course, there is a lot of people coming by the neighborhood to check it out, but slowly, the apartment buildings are filling up again and outside of the people sharing the stories of how crazy the last few days have been for them, you know, that is a lot of what you are seeing, people starting to fill back up and people getting back to normal here, and the police are t

i'm don lemon. carol is off today. we'll begin this hour with a new measure of the economy and new ammunition thrown into the presidential race. just minutes ago, we learned unemployment is still bogged down at a dismal 8.2%. 80,000 jobs were created. that's less than expected. it's one of the last monthly reports we should tell you before the november election. and this morning, both the obama and romney campaigns will put their own spin on this. we're going to cut through all of that for you. poppy harlow will give us the bottom line on the new numbers. alison kosik shows us the ripples on wall street. dan lothian will look ahead at the president's remarks on the economy next hour. and dana bash has the view from the romney campaign. we'll go first to poppy harlow in new york. give us the breakdown. this is not good news. >> don, i'm losing you on my ifb. while they fix that, i'm just going to give you -- you gave the headline number. i'm going to talk to people about the real issue here, and that is that this econom

[ shouting ] >> and an opposition group in syria says that it is an operation under way to liberate the city of aleppo. they urged government officials to surrender saying they would not be hurt. but at the same time diplomats met in qatar to discuss the situation and how it might be ended. 42 people were killed today in that country as troubles roll on. >>> michael jackson's mother has been reported missing, but the family says she is fine. the missing person was reported by her nephew. by twitter catherine jackson's son, jermaine, says she is in arizona resting on the orders of the doctor. she is upset over a family fight over michael jackson's will. >>> penn state officials are worried and so are penn state officials that they might shut do

don?d the family attorney, casey, also thought it was important to clarify something abc news reported about the mother on friday. what was that all about? >> reporter: yeah. that seemed to be top of mind and perhaps even the most important part of this news conference that was held. on friday, abc news reported that a producer contacted arlene holmes, the suspect's mother, and that she sort of confirmed that they had the right identity of the suspect, sort of inferring that, in fact, yes, he was the person who was suspected in this horrible shooting. the family came out today through their attorney saying, no, that's not what the mother meant. the mother meant only that she was the right person that the abc news producer thought he was speaking with. she was clarifying that, yes, you've got the right person in me. abc news coming out late tonight saying that they are standing by their reporting, that they in fact referred to the colorado shooting before mrs. holmes identified herself as t

i definitely was, don.hen you have structure and you get up every morning, you know you have to be somewhere. once you retire and, you know, you lose your way and you don't have the right people telling you the right things, but you're a grown man. i take responsibility for that. >> you had yes people around you. >> no excuses though. i'm a grown man. >> before the break, i said what the attorney general said about you. is he right? >> i think he's incorrect. i think i'm a christian first. like i said before, there's times i lost my ways. when i was definitely drinking at times, i think i had a dark side. i know i did. but i think i'm a good man who's done a lot of good. i have to continue. >> and you were in real prison. you weren't in a celebrity prison. you went to a state prison in new jersey. you were in real prison. >> that's right. >> what was the profound moment there? >> any time a 22-year-old correctional officer can tell you to bend over or get naked or do anything and you lose your freedom, i th

don? >> nic robertson, thank you, nic. we'll check in with you again. >>> now to president obama's departure this hour for the so-called rust belt. his two-day bus tour on ground force one begins in ohio with three campaign stops later today and focusing on his handling of the economy, policies, and financial rescue of u.s. automakers. their major employer in the swing states. brianna keilar is at her post at the white house for us this morning. brianna, good morning to you. and what is the strategy here? >> oh, good morning to you, don. and i first off have to apologize for all the loud jackhammering that you hear. so i want to acknowledge that. but, yeah, the president will be leaving shortly on this bus tour. it's being called the betting on america bus tour. and really what he's trying to do is tout his economic policies. so expect him to talk about the stimulus, but certainly the auto bailout as you mentioned. especially in ohio where auto suppliers are a big employer. it played very

. >> don, i'm losing you on my ifb. while they fix that, i'm just going to give you -- you gave the headline number. i'm going to talk to people about the real issue here, and that is that this economy frankly needs to be creating 300,000 to 400,000 jobs every single month for a few consecutive months to bring that unemployment number down. that is not happening. this is a critical number. and also how many millions of people are looking for people, want work out there, that have just given up and said, you know, i can't find a job. they are not counted in this unemployment rate. let's tack a look at that number. 2.5 million americans would like to be working, would like a job. they have given up working because they feel the economy is so bad, so they are not counted in that rate. if you count them in that unemployment rate, it's actually closer to 15%. that's a reality check for you, don, on this pretty disappointing report, frankly. >> poppy harlow in new york. poppy, thank you very much. >>> now to wall street to se

don. >> it's definitely something.u hear about the booby trapped apartment, it's like something you see in the movies or on a crime drama. thank you, miguel. let's go back inside the shooting. witnesses of today's shooting rampage, they described the scene as a complete terror scene and one of chaos. the panicked moviegoers panicked as this gunman shot at the crowd as he walked up the theater steps. they were inside the theater when the shooting happened. so, trey, how close were you to the door? >> we were about 15, maybe 16 rows up from the front of the screen, where the man walked in. he came in from right-hand side. we were on the left. when he first opened the door, no one knew how to react. it was very strange, out of the ordinary. he opened it and just took a big stare into the audience, just looked at everybody. >> really? daunte, you said you thought it was part of the production, right? >> 'cause it looked like he kind of dressed like bain, a character in the movie, so i thought it was an act, part of the sho

>> look, don.e at some point takes a little more time with this, but that's not occurred. i mean, science should be focused on those 61 kids you were talking about at top of the hour that died from mysterious disease. the idea of focusing on this idea of is there some athletic superiority based on genetics is a waste of time. >> my question was going to be, why isn't science taking more time to study this? you think even by doing it, it would be a waste of time? >> well, what's the ultimate outcome? in the 100 meters in london, we'll see blacks with ten-pound weights on like we have racehors racehorses. whites in baseball, all the sudden they get two strikes. what kind of changes do we begin to make other than saying there's something to the hard work of individuals, no matter what their race, the desire, the interest in different sports, and the opportunity. >> listen, i want to go beyond this. you guys, as you guys said at top of this broadcast, this has happened before. we heard about it in the
