gloria rodriguez has the new developments. gloria: good morning. they appeared before a magistrate about 3:00 this morning. in addition to drug charges they face child abuse charges. authorities say two children were in the home when they were making meth and another shocking thing we found out is they are accused of animal cruelty. they intentionally injured a crews clean up the lab on huntleigh drive. the raleigh police department discovered it around 8:30 p.m. while serving a search warrant at the home. they had been conducting a drug investigation there. neighbors are shocked. >> we don't want it in the neighborhood. if i seen it i call the police. gloria: robert kennerly and melissa godshall were arrested. they were charged early this morning with manufacturing and trafficking meth. two children were removed from the home. one is 7 years old and other one1 year old. >> that's crazy. >> with children in the house. >> lock them up for a long time. gloria: did is unclear how the two children are doing right now. as for the pitbull that was mentio

>> well, gloria just identified an important one.ietly the calls for joe biden to re-enter the race if hillary clinton loses both iowa and new hampshire to bernie sanders. and i think biden has anticipated that and basically said, as he admitted to gloria, the door is closed. in other words, please don't come back to me. i've made my decision. >> interesting. so, mark, do you think -- know what politicians say and i think joe biden is sincere. but, let's face it, politicians often change their minds. >> yeah, they absolutely do. oftentimes they change them before primary season starts, though. joe biden made a calculation. it was partly he got into the race too late. as he said during that press conference, i can't win this thing. i simply don't think there's enough time. i think he miscalculated. i think he didn't appreciate the fact that maybe hillary clinton's numbers would dip more than they -- than he predicted they would. all that said, if joe biden didn't think he could win an election in october, when not one state had been i

gloria rodriguez has the latest. good morning. gloria: good morning to you. around me. they have blocked off part of durham road also known as highway 98. this is what you need to know. it is closed between u.s. one to tyler run drive. where we are is a little farther out because we were told to stay a little further away because there's the threat of possibly that road caving in. but in this video here lots of water gushing up and the road starting to break away. detours have been posted so if you are in this area police will help you get around. the wake forest police department says they have cut off water to about 70 to 80 residents until they get this fixed. it is unclear how long it will take. the public utilities crew got here about a half hour ago and they are trying to fix the situation. an interesting thing is when you get closer you can hear the right in front of where it is going on tells me he thought it was rain because he could hear the water and didn't realize it was a break. crews are responding and they are hoping to fix the road as soon as possible. f

gloria: good morning. that's right. they will release white balloons in honor of the children deported back to their home countries and bringing kites and this is in response to a boost in immigration deportations. today democratic senators are asking president barack obama to halt the raids. groups in the triangle are organizing the vigil today. they are the same groups involved in the recent protests outside the governor's mansion against stricter immigration laws in the state that resulted in arrests. they also were involved in a protest here at the jail in response to those arrests. the department of homeland security has increased deport deportation raids against central american children and families and d.h.s. saying they are targeting those already issued final orders of removal and exhausted all legal remedies. many say the government is doing its job but immigration activists say this is splitting up families. 17 federal immigration officers are stationed here at the wake far they have deported nearly 300 undo

i think gloria is right on two points. one the vice president was making, a very accurate point of political analysis, which is, if you were a voter who -- in the democratic party who cares a lot about income inequality, bernie sanders has been your champion for a very long time. hillary clinton has been secretary of state for four of the last six years and not been talking about it nor should she be. she's worked on those issues for a very long time, going back to the beginning of her career. gloria is also right that the vice president, i think, identifies with -- maybe not all the solutions that bernie sanders has, but with this idea because it's been core to the vice president's identity as someone who has always made his political career as fighting for the working class families he work up in my home state of delaware. so, i think that does appeal to him. had he run, he would have run a very populous campaign championing working folks in the middle class. so, i think he was -- i don't said this morning, make a he neg
