misty cummings faced a judge thursday morning, less than one hour after her mother was taken away in handcuffs. with her hair in corn rows and her hands and feet in shackles, the 18-year-old entered a not guilty plea to eight counts of drug trafficking. >> haleigh's father and misty's ex-husband, ronald cummings, was excused from thursday's arraignme arraignment. wednesday cummings filed a not guilty plea in a letter from his attorney. >> while misty cummings was on the second floor being arraigned, crystal sheffield, haleigh's mother was on the first floor meeting with the department of children and families. sheffield and haleigh's grand mothers, marie griffiths and teresa nef vez met with custody officials to discuss junior. sheffield is working to obtain full custody. >> okay, leonard padilla, what about it? >> what about what? >> well, is it going to happen? is it in the hands of the lawyers? if it were to go down, would you want to talk to her from the jailhouse then get her out? >> basically the attorney sent out a letter attorney and i haven't seen it, but several of the people in the

your client in handcuffs.esumed guilty when you see somebody in cuffs walking in and out of the police station. that is what they are trying to avoid. i suppose by trying to agreeing to surrender he is not a flight risk. he can possibly get bail out on these charges while the charges are pending. that is what they are trying to negotiate now i'm guessing. >> here is the timeline when you talk about gross negligence. propofol is the last thing. valium 2:00 a.m., anti-anxiety drug, finally, 10:40, michael jackson demands propofol. and he ends up dead. is is it the cocktail of medications? >> presumably dr. conrad murray was the last person with michael jackson and the only doctor in the house and he was under dr. murray's care. i don't care if somebody says i want propofol, you can't give it to them. first of all, you need certain medical equipment to make sure their breathing is stable. for somebody to monitor their vital signs. they didn't have the equipment there. there was no anesthesiologist there. it was a

they really like what's called a perp walk, somebody in handcuffs. that's what prospective jurors will see. >> murray is in default on a debt for medical equipment and services. a judge in las vegas made the ruling yesterday. now, murray has longstanding personal and professional debts apparently. last summer he almost lost his las vegas country club home to foreclosure. a woman who claims she had an affair with golf star tiger woods is denouncing a novelty product inspired by his sex scandal. veronica daniels is upset about a set of golf balls bearing images and names of women implicated in the scandal. daniels, a former adult film star says the golf balls could promote violence towards women. she's one of the alleged mistresses depicted on the golf balls and objects to the idea of hitting a woman's face, even the drawing of one w a golf club. >> i have come forward today because i feel that it is wrong for a golf ball to have my picture on it. as a victim of violence myself, it bothered me to think that someone would be standing with a dangerous cl

what they're trying to do is make sure he's not hauled off in handcuffs. they want a surrender and away from the media. tough to do in los angeles. >> what charge, jim? >> my guess is it would be involuntary manslaughter. you have a situation where michael jackson was under the doctor's care and propofol was administered and this is the last doctor to treat michael jackson. >> larry: are we skwumpijumpingn or will he be charged? >> they don't know for sure. they're holding out hope that there is a small chance that they won't be, but all of the signs are leading towards the charge coming soon. the ap reporting today they're not going to use a grand jury, go ahead and release a criminal complaint. >> larry: what about means, jim? the prosecutor must have told the lawyer something. have your client ready or what? what do they base it on? >> there's clearly contact with these offices. however, the d.a. hasn't necessarily tipped its hand. there's no charges filed yet. you hear things from police officers, ap gets information from someone, cnn is getting inform

they want to make sure he's not hauled off in handcuffs. they want to surrender. they don't want the media. tough to do in los angeles. >> larry: what's the charge? >> my guess is involuntary manslaughter. you know propofil was adminstered, and you know this is the last doctor to have been treating michael jackson, and you probably have a gross negligence charge and involuntary manslaughter. >> larry: are we jumping the gun or has the lawyer said he will be charged? >> we don't know. they're holding out hope there will be a small chance they won't be, but all the signs are leading to a charge coming and coming soon, and the ap reporting today they're not going to use a grand jury, they'll go ahead and submit a formal charge. there clearly is some contact with these officers, however, the d.a. hasn't necessarily tipped their hand. there is no charges yet. you hear things from police officers. they all have sources. the a.p. is getting information from someone. cnn is getting information from someone. radar online, tmz, there's all these various sources, and ted is

. >> the 22-year-old showed no emotion as she was led away in handcuffs. we just learned this disturbing detail a case worker had been to the house the day before this tragedy. were there any signs, just a few of the questions we have. we'll take your questions, as well, 1-877-tell-hln. joining us to talk about this welcome back michelle golland clinical psychologist you can find more thoughts and insights momlogic.com. chief mcman nniscmannis. >> the call came out for a cutting and the officers got on the scene and they found the mother standing outside her home. when we walked up to her, she said, i just culled my babies and put her hands out to be handcuffed, not very emotional at all, just rather matter of fact. >> well, let's get michelle in on that front. michelle, how does -- what's going on with her where she would just hold the wrists out and as the chief said matter of factually say i killed my babies. >> it reminds me of the andrea yates case, mike, if you remember. my clinical impression at this point is sort of leaning to is there any sort of

but clearly evident the fact that had died with his handcuffs still on. only a few hours earlier he had been interrogated in the presence of reporters inside the police station. in this footage that was made public at the time, he's asked a series of questions about the organization he led. he responds readily without hesitation. his bodying fresh contusions. it's not known whether they were caused during fighting, arrest or detention. this army officer who appears to have been in charge of the operation is seen to be handing over command to a senior policeman. both men are clearly identified by the name tags on their chest, and their badges of rank. at this stage, though, it was not possible to tell who was a fighter and who an unarmed civilian. or indeed who did the killing and how. among the bodies recovered was that of muhammad. his family had given their story to the government commission set up to investigate the events that took place here. but they, along with the relatives of hundreds of others apparently unarmed civilians who were killed, are st

somebody being in handcuffs. it's what perspective jurors will see. >> he's in default on a $132,000 debt for medical equipment and services. a judge in las vegas made that ruling yesterday. his personal and professional debts. he nearly foreclosed on a house. t. >> it's a lot of news happening. what about what your day holds. i know, we are already looking toward the weekend even though it's thursday. here is bob van dillen. the same place is getting wet as befo before. >> they are getting slammed. the gulf. d.c., baltimore, up to philadelphia, starting friday afternoon through saturday, a foot of snow in virginia. more on that in a second. i want to show you what's happening now. coming out of the gulf of mexico, blue and green is heavy rain. it's a great deal of acreage. still dry when you get toward atlanta. it comes in and moves to the carolinas. what about new orleans? heavy rain now. it's spilling in toward mississippi. the next 48 hours, watch the rain stretch to the carolinas, to the mid-atlantic and the

>> -- put handcuffs on the hands of hezbollah or dismantle them. >> let me ask you again about iran and the constantly raised military option that you all say every option is still on the table. your former chief of the idf, general halute says israel lacks the military means for a preemptive strikes against iran's nuclear facilities. that israel should not be the flagbearer for the entire western world. and he said, not just some passerby. i've had information that gives me levels of information that the general public does not have. in other words, you can't do it alone. >> i respect him very much so, and i clearly said that at this stage, we believe it's still the time for sanctions, but i repeat my accommodation, to others as well as to everyone else, not t everyone else, not to remove any option from the table. i hope sanctions and any other means will work, but we have to wait and see. >> again, i've heard that the iranian facilities are hardened, they're dispersed, the united states has certainly up until now said that they would not necessarily help you, and the very least, you

. >> and handcuff how, on a typical stormy day, you have waves that would dwarf the tsunami, and here we see the surfers with the super waves, probably 10 times of what the tsunami was today. >> some would say, whalings all the fuss about? i have seen bigger waves before. >> i saw surfers out there today. >> we have to be on guard, look what happened with the tsunami of 2004. the wave was not that high, but it kept going, and it wiped out entire cities and areas, and so we have to be on alert for these things. >>> everyone argues about and debates climate change, and whether or not it's real. or if it's just a creation of people with a political agenda, but is it not the rim of fire surrounding the pacific where earthquakes and tsunamis are so commonplace, are they not increasing in activity where we can record and report the activity far more than we could before? >> mainly the latter. we have a larger population, and we have a media around the world. and okinawa, it had a 7.6 earthquake because there was no media. but in the last 15 years, there has been a slight uptick of earthquak

murray, putting him in handcuffs, putting him in a police car. the paparazzi frantically photographing the scene and a perp walk for dr. murray, perhaps because law enforcement thinks there should be an example set here. jackson died last june 25th. the coroner said the cause was acute propofol intoxication. propofol a powerful anesthetic that murray allegedly gave to jackson. and according to the allegations under improper circumstances. this is a drug that doctors say has to be administered under hospital conditions. we're awaiting to hear when and how murray might surrender. norah. >> all right. george lewis in burbank. george, thanks so much. >>> now we've got also breaking news out of hollywood about brittany murphy's death. the coroner saying she died from pneumonia, prescription drug intoxication was also a factor. the coroner declined to say what types of drugs were involved. more details will be complete when a complete autopsy is ready two weeks from today. >>> bank of america and two top former executives have been charged with fraud o

not of a couple of guys in handcuffs, and not of our own judicial system.ay we know it can work. but the republicans, instead of standing with the president, have chosen to attack him with the same old line that he's weak on terror. of course, joe lieberman got on-board and so did some conservative democrats who were scared in their hometown when it comes to elections and re-elections. so they joined with a group of republican senators who want to block funding for any civilian trial of alleged 9/11 terrorists. wyoming senator john barrasso is one of them kind enough to join us tonight. senator, good have to you with us. senator, i just want to point out something from the mcclatchey newspapers. they point out the cans vags advocacy group in washington says civilian courts have convicted more than 200 accused terrorists since 2001 attacks while military commissions created by congress have convicted only three. what's wrong with ksm in a civilian court? are you afraid that we wouldn't get justice? >> this is wrong for a number of reasons. the cost issue, th

"the new york daily news" reports city officials admit their tactics in this case were a mistake. >>> if you're stressed out and overworked, sleeping for a few days straight may seem like a dream come true, but it's become a real nightmare for one 15-year-old girl who has a rare disorder that causes her to sleep for days and sometimes for up to two weeks. stephanie gosk has the amazing story. >> reporter: teenagers need a lot of sleep, but for 15-year-old louisa, sleeping has become a curse. what has been the longest period of time you've been asleep? >> 13 days. >> reporter: unlike the fairy tale, this sleeping beauty has no prince charming coming to wake her up. she has a rare condition with only 1,000 known cases around the world. >> this kind of state lasts for about one to two weeks generally and then it disappears suddenly. so people feel this is over but, unfortunately, it com

attorneys saying an arrest would be purely for the cameras and they don't want him paraded around in handcuffshis point, again, late last night, the spokesperson for dr. murray says he will come here at 1:30, whether or not any charges are filed, to turn himself in. if no charges are filed we're told he will be getting on a plane and heading back home to houston. we are on standby, contessa. >> stephanie, we'll check back in with you. when you see something, i know you'll share it. >>> let's look at what you may have missed today, especially if you're just waking up on the west coast. funny man jon stewart faced off with bill o'reilly, from iran to global warming and o'reilly suggested the two of them should team up and enter the political arena. >> let's play a little bit of a scenario. i'm thinking about running for president. >> i think that's a really bad idea. >> i want you to be my vice president. >> i think that's a really bad idea, too. i have pictures of me in college that preclude me from working at the post office. you have no idea the trouble you're getting in. >> this is why i've

clearly he was somehow managed to get out of the handcuffs. an officer's cell phone to call his girlfriend and tell her he had just stole an police car. the chase ended with a crash that totalled the cruiser. the suspect is charged with 11 separate criminal counts. >> or he had the handcuffs in front of him which might not be a good idea. >> how would he call the cell phone too? >> true. >> must have found a way to get out of those things is. >> two parties and one president in one room to talk about one issue, the health care forum made for good tv but did anything really get done? our senior white house correspondent ed henry is taking a look coming up next. >> at 15 minutes past the hour, seaworld reassessing its procedures and where it goes from here two days after a killer whale grabbed a trainer by her hair and pulled her under water to her death. ahead, how the theme park is responding to the demands from some animal rights group this orca should be released back to the wild. >>> at 50 after, a special report on broken government. dr. s

several people ended up in handcuffs and police say the mother of the victim had to be hospitalized.s on the inside of a jail, right, a little bit of a jailbreak twist there. a battle, martha, happening between the federal government and private landowners, designating millions of acres of land as a national monument and in the past we heard the argument and it is coming up again, effectively taking the property out of the hands of ranchers and developers, and william lajeunesse is live in l.a., out in the countryside checking this out, and good morning, what did you find? >> reporter: it isn't just what the administration is considering, that set off alarm bells in the western state, it is how they are doing it. it began with the document when it was leaked from the department of interior listing 14 sites, totaling 13 million acres, as possible new candidates for national monuments and congress which typically has a huge sane national parks and wilderness areas, some, there, are outraged. scenic rivers and indian ruins and across the weshgs environmentalists targeted thousands of mi

he does not want to be seen walking in with the handcuffs and all that drama, so i think by negotiating, i think he averts that image. >> does this -- by negotiating this, starting this way, is this foreshadowing something. maybe there's some sort of plea or negotiation to go on before we even get to a trial? >> you know, that's a good question, don. i wouldn't be surprised if you saw a plea out of this. if he is in fact going to be charged with involuntary manslaughter, it's not as serious, obviously, as murder because you don't have intent, you don't have premeditation. the most i think he could be facing with involuntary manslaughter in california is four years. so for him to plead to that, you know, it wouldn't necessarily be a high amount of time spent in jail. >> okay. so four years involuntary manslaughter. i told you, you know, when i introduced you that the jackson family thought it should be second-degree murder charges. this propofol that he allegedly prescribed for michael jackson, a very powerful drug and other sedatives as we said, the coroner says it contributed to his de

[laughter] >> this is the shadow of a congressman bernie ishtook of oklahoma and the most pernicious part of what he was trying to do, which actually led to the founding of our organization, was not only to say that you cannot get federal money for lobbying, you cannot raise private money. the legal services corp. as an example -- and maybe we can come together on this because we were close to lifting these restrictions -- is still operating under 1996 restrictions that basically
