stephanie elam, here with us on the set right now.alk about some of the things that were going on, revealing secrets. really interesting, the relationships he had with women. >> it is very eye opening. because this is something we hadn't heard about. these two bodyguards came together, wrote a book about the years that they were with him after they came back to the united states. remember, after that big trial, about the child molestation, he came back. they're saying in that time, he was just all by himself, but he would disappear and go off and have makeout sessions with two women that he called friend and flower. that's all they knew them as. at one point, he was driving -- the bodyguard was driving the suv. he was in the back seat, behind a blanket making out. the bodyguards started high fiving each other because they were like, yes, we knew it, he had this other side to him that people don't get to see. very interesting because that's something people don't hear about. >> the other thing they talked about a lot too, they saw a si

. >> our stephanie elam is "outfront" live in las vegas. what more are we learning about this awful attack? >> reporter: it's really just brutal, ashley, when you look at the details here, just cold-blooded murder around 11:30 in the morning on sunday when this couple, the officers believe they may have walked to their apartment until they got to this restaurant here in las vegas. there were two officers enjoying their lunch break, and then apparently jerad miller, that's the name of the man they've released, the male suspect in this case, walked in, saw the officers, left, came back with his wife, amanda miller, and behind the head shooting one of the officers at point-blank range and then shooting the other officer in his neck. the two officers that passed away, one 31 years old and another 41. both were married with young children, but after killing them, that's not where they left. take a listen to what police found on these two officers' bodies. >> immediately upon the shooting finishing, the suspects pulled the officers out of the boo

. >> stephanie elam, thank you so much. >>> more than 57,000 veterans have been waiting for 90 days or longer to get medical appointments at v.a. hospitals across the country. this is according to a new audit released today. it shows that over the past decade, tens of thousands of veterans who enrolled for v.a. health care never got to see a doctor. drew griffin and his team broke the story two months ago. drew joins me now. drew, this isn't just about wait times, this audit. this is about working at the v.a. and being told to falsify these records. how widespread was that? >> you know, that's what is really troubling if you take away from this report that i'm reading. it's the fact that the supervisors were telling people to lie about how to put down these wait times just to hide the fact that they were so long. it was a scandal being held in secr secret by the v.a. and when we talk about the secret lists, i want to read this to you. this is from the v.a. report that it pressure was placed on schedulers to utilize unofficial lists or engage in inappropriate practices in order to make

stephanie elam joins me live. and stephanie, set the scene for me.uch are firefighters able to get a handle on? >> reporter: well, brooke, they're feeling confident today that they'll be able to make some progress on this fire. if you look behind me, you can see that it is a bit smoky. but the fire is really burning in the outreaches of this community. and we are pretty much in eastern part of california right now. but they are feeling confident, despite the fact that it is so dry here in california, and that is part of the issue here. take a listen to what one fire official, richard hadley, had to say about it. >> right now, the fuels, the drew fuels, the unburned fuels, are the driest they have ever been in history across the state. so we're seeing conditions in june that we would typically see in september at the end of the fire season. >> reporter: and also, keep in mind too, the people who have been evacuated, some are really close to where we are right now. they're expecting to hopefully get back in their places. the pio i talked to, the man yo

i want to bring in stephanie elam and danny sew value less -- vs -- savalas. one wants their medical records released. you can understand him being upset about that. but recording voice mails, he should know better. how much do these new recordings hurt him and will they be admissible in an actual trial? >> yes. there's a huge distinction to be made. when you talk ton a phone conversation, that conversation may be protected by wiretapping law but it's a totally different game when you leave a voicemail because you are willingly allow yourself to be recorded. that's what voicemail is so that will come in as evidence. the moral of the story is be careful what you say on the phone, but even more careful if you are leaving a voicemail because not only can the recording possibly be introduced, but it can be transcribed and the effect as evidence is pretty compelling and the moral of the story for donald sterling is stay away from the telephone. switch to telegrams, use smoke signals. stay away from anything that will record your voice because look i have sympathy f

stephanie elam is with us in studio. we'll start with shasta first. give us an idea of how the players are getting ready? >> the pressure is really on, michaela. this is the game they have been anticipating the most since it was first announced who they will be playing. germany is a power house. unfortunately, we had some bad news today from coach klinsmann. he said that jozy altidoer will not be at the game. he said once they are done with this game, successfully, they will have him back but not for thursday. on the other hand, the team players keep telling us how hungry they are, excited they are, and they were out on the field practicing, joking, smiling. i mean, i think the draw the other day was tough for them but they bounced back. they really worked together as a team. they have got the positive attitude and they keep telling us over and over we are in it to win this thing. they came so much further than people did expect. it's made them optimistic and driven. >> they have a brutal travel schedule all over that country. like the fifth largest c

. >> reporter: stephanie elam, cnn, los angeles. >> we're going to get to this dialogue right away on this subject right now. joining me is mark lamont hill and sunny hostin and frank bruni. this is a dream team tonight. thank you all for joining me. frank, i'm going to begin with you. justin bieber, donald sterling both caught on tape with private remarks that later went public. do these tapes reveal anything about what they really think? >> you raise a good point which is if things were said in private were made public we would think that our least true self were put out there. we say things off the cuff who don't reflect who we are. we can only divine so much about these individuals from what they said. and the interest that these are very, very different people in different circumstances. in justin bieber we don't know there is a long history of this. in donald sterling's case this came after discrimination lawsuits and a long history that suggests more than one comment. >> and sunny, he had these tapes for four years. how big of a difference does age make in this case? >> i don't

i want to bring in stephanie elam. good to have you back., the hits keep on coming in this saga going on here. the judge essentially telling both sides cool your jets. it's getting a little too heated from both sides. >> oh, it's definitely getting heated, and you know, the whole reason why they are in court is because shelley sterling wants to sell the team to former microsoft ceo steve ballme re:. we're going through all of this. now we know that donald sterling can go ahead and call witnesses, do whatever he wants to and leave these voice mails. the problem is what he probably doesn't realize, he knew he was recorded this time, but the thing those are now admissible in court and that's why we've now heard them. this could go on to affect what we see on july 7th when they go to probate court. >> what people are discussing right now is donald sterling mentally fit or not? and it seems like these recordings could be evidence that are somewhat persuasive one way or the other. >> i would say so. you are leaving these messages out there for peo

i want to bring in our stephanie elam starting to work the sourcsourc sources from los angeles and whatble to figure out? >> one thing for clarity, erin, just how police are trying to clear the buildings around where the shooting occurred. there's a discrepancy of one or two shooters. we believe that there is one. we're still looking to confirm that but what we know is going building by building, the s.w.a.t. team there according to the official seattle police department, twitter account, and going through and cleaning out the buildings and these rooms to make sure there's nobody else in there, completely safe and locking down this area where the shooting has happened, make sure there's not anymore shootings that were going to occur and they believe they have that they have one person in custody and taking down to the station they're saying and since he's alive there's more that we could learn from this but at this point right now we know that there are those four victims, two men and two women. two with life threatening injuries right now, erin. >> tim, how significant is it? i mean, y
