the l.a. chapter also investigated the crime. as they began to investigate the crime, it became apparent that it was almost impossible for a lantern to cross that kind of explosion. here's a picture of the eagle office because the walls of the house were knocked to the ground so the lamp or lantern theory, they should doubt on this theory. now it's a long investigation process, many months of investigation and i don't have time to do to help all of it but in the aftermath of the murder, there is an elaborate cover-up of evidence that would have led to criminal conviction. the corner in his investigation refused to admit evidence that was set by vigilantes. the lantern itself so intact i supposedly blew up was not entered into the investigation and the district attorney, it became clear in the midst of this cover-up but there was also an organized resistance to the cover-up and the efforts to seek justice for the family were also ongoing. 1946, a leader of the los angeles socialist workers part

a big focus on all the talk in l.a. and l.a. tech week.ech weeks in new york, san francisco, l.a., sometimes a lot comes out of it and sometimes very little. what did you learn on the ground? katie: i had fun. [laughter] what did i learn? i chatted with mantis, the chain smokers, the band. they have a venture fund and they threw events. it would not be l.a. tech week without participation from hollywood. i spoke to will-i-am who should be will-ai-am. he has had multiple ai startups. he has a new one and spoke to me about why he is excited about ai, but also how he thinks it could provide an opportunity for there to be a reset for new jobs. he is going back to his home community to help prepare them for the changing job market. a lot of different events. sometimes at hollywood mansions and sometimes featuring pizza robots. but it was exciting to catch up with the tech industry. caroline: i'm not sure there is any tech world that has not spoken to will-i-am. i have interviewed him at viva tech, or something. london tech week is on at the mom

fox business's kelly o'grady is live at a gas station in l.a. i can assume l.a.led to hear about another potential tax, right? >> absolutely, bill, right? we love our taxes in los angeles. i know you know that well. listen, traffic is synonymous with los angeles. a study last year drivers spent 95 hours of their life sitting in traffic, that's just under four days of their lives and that's a crazy figure. no word yet on how this congestion plan would price, just that it would potentially charge more for peak hours. i want to give you a sense of where it would be happening. number of areas are being considered. the map there, the ten between downtown and san monica is one in particular. if you charge drivers more is the idea, they'll maybe not all decide to drive at the same time at 8:00 a.m. when everyone is trying to get to work. this is the only feasible way to reduce traffic some feel. >> we have grown incredibly tolerant of a very badly performing transportation system. most of us understand that for many things just having the -- it will invite a shortage. t

in this last half-hour, we introduced in l.a. resident larry parker who is trying to get to l.a.wark. a flight that should've taken a few hours is taking three days. at the end of that, i actually wished him well, sent him on his way to the security gate and guess what? he came back. i am back with larry parker. wiry back here. tell me the first and you told me? >> this was not rehearsed, but believe it or not, after i left, i got a message on my cell phone. there has been what they call an unexpected operational issue. the flight has been pushed back one hour. at this point, i don't know if this is happened one way or another, and finally, the flight is canceled. you've taken trains, you've taken planes. a lot of you are asking, why not take a car? >> i suppose so. a man next to me last night said they were trying to do the same thing. from texas, houston, they thought it was canceled, they wanted a car. it was a rental car that was gone. >> rental cars are gone. you said hotels are booked up. you have been sleeping where? how if you been living? >> i sleep at the airport, and a

do you did you miss l.a. while you were working on it? i mean, i was still doing last l.a. , so i never really, never really moved away from that anymore. lost l.a., i think you probably get some fans here who would love to know. i'm not sure i can make an announcement about that. we are on television right now. alyssa. yeah, and you were working on this. did you run across something else that you thought, oh, that would make a good sitcom? hmm yes. my question, by the way, is whether in the course of working on this book, you may have found a loose thread that could lead you to a second book. i mean, that it's probably impossible not to write. there's just so many there's so much going on. i mean, i would love and that my friend my friend john here, he's really been pushing me to write a sort of sequel about burton k wheeler because he has, you know, he's the sort of sort of hero of my book, although he's i tried to paint him as a drama, as a complicated figure. he's a flawed hero, right. and he and i thought it was the only responsible

that was this low that we have over l.a.s getting closer and it's been rushing air across the bay area, across the california area, as we've seen all of these thunderstorms developing over the sierra now travel across the central valley because of the counterclockwise throw around this low that's been moving in, and that's live lightning you're seeing. so it's also been showing showers and the potential of thunder. now, so far we've only seen a few spotty showers, but we're waiting to see if this activity picks up by late morning into the afternoon. as of now, much of the thunderstorms are to our south, but we do still have a chance of seeing activity offshore with cloud-to-ground lightning strikes. let's take it hour-by-hour. it shows by 10:00, 11:00, we start to see rain coming in. we'll see if it produces more gusty winds, small hail, as well as thunderstorms as it moves through between 10:00 to 1:00 for parts of the north bay. there may be a bit of a break. but then with the next round of storms developing over the sierr

there haven't been too many chances to beat l.a. the giants and dodgers have only played one series this season. tonight, they made their first trip to l.a. and the bullpen crumbles for the dodgers. game tied at 4. and casey schmidt comes in as the hard hitter, beating the throw to first, and the rbi single in this first at bat against the dodgers to give them the 5-4 lead. and now they come in to close and usually money here and freeman's pop up will fall and that scores the game tieing run, so this goes into extras. as vern likes to say, 10 innings wasn't enough. >>> in the 11th, the o.g. comes the giants, score two runs in the 11th. they go on to win 7-5. game two is tomorrow night at 6:00. >>> kyle schwarber and the phillies visiting the a's at the coliseum, and it didn't take long for philly to flex its muscles. schwarber, buries the first pitch. the lead off solo homer set raquel out after their seven-game winning streak. the a's have now lost three in a row in the final of this one, it's 6-1. >>> well the warriors are enterin

times" headline and the "l.a. times" headline said this, l.a. deputy shoots driver who was doing donuts and rammed patrol cruiser, officers say, and the rest of the article goes through a point-by-point description of why police are not allowed to shoot these people, even if they ram them down in the car. >> that's not correct! they're absolutely allowed to shoot them. if someone is ramming you with a car, they're trying to kill you. the officer has every right to shoot you. this tells me this is a cummulative effect of our leaders that dehumanized our police. there's a lack of respect and lack of fear towards our law enforcement and it's dangerous. >> i wonder as you talk about lack of respect as you see the video, it's a societal thing. they don't respect the police. they know if the police do something, they can sue them. whatever the police do, they're going to sue them and you think we've gotten to a society now where who wants to be a police officers? >> it's -- police officer? >> it's very dangerous, the county i represent, riverside coun

i was born and raised in l.a. i went to college in l.a. i'm raising three daughters in l.a. this is where we are. we believe in the city. unfortunately, we just have failed leadership and broken policies. so hopefully we can be a part of a solution. i'm not terribly optimistic at this point, but we're going to continue to fight the good fight. well, brandon, at some point you have to save yourself, right? mean, this has gone on year after year after year and the people had a chance to a change and they elected karen bass. i mean, i'm glad some of the encampments are broken up, but i mean, i have friends that have told stories to you about cars being set on fire and really neighborhoods. and the police basically say, was anyone hurt? no, it's just the cars in flames. we'll call the fire department. and, you know, good luck. i think that's just what that's just what's happening these days. so god bless you. and i hope there can be political change. but meanwhile, you know you're holding the bag on a lot of these investments. brandon, thank you. coming up, cornel west is runnin

even parts of the central coast and just north of l.a.from the clouds to the ground. we're seeing this disturbance that's moving along the coast, bringing in a lot more of this moisture as we go into today. it looks like we're going to catch a break as we go into the rest of the afternoon into the evening with once again some to peeks of sunshine. but there may be one more wave of rain coming over the sacramento valley into the north bay as we go into late tonight and much of the rest of the bay area drying out. temperature-wise, upper 60s and low 70s. this is all cooler than normal. definitely cooler than what we had over the weekend. we look at palo alto and our ten-day forecast, no warm-up in sight. as we go toward the end of the weekend, it dips again into the upper 60s here as we could be tracking again another chance of rain in june in our forecast. so we may stay in this very weird weather pattern. for san francisco, temperatures in the low to mid-60s and watching out for more rain chances for early next week. now as we turn to our
