<v Speaker 2>MTVVJ Ananda Lewis. She's passed away at the age of

0:00:58.240 --> 0:01:01.840
<v Speaker 2>fifty two after a five your battle with breast cancer.

0:01:05.319 --> 0:01:08.280
<v Speaker 2>trial with his former girlfriend on the stand. Now for

0:01:08.520 --> 0:01:09.679
<v Speaker 2>the sixth day in.

0:01:09.720 --> 0:01:13.240
<v Speaker 1>A row plus singer and convicted sex trafficker r Kelly

0:01:13.280 --> 0:01:16.839
<v Speaker 1>says prison officials are trying to kill him. He's asking

0:01:16.880 --> 0:01:19.400
<v Speaker 1>for help from President Trump and the courts to release

0:01:19.480 --> 0:01:23.240
<v Speaker 1>him to home detention. And there's a partial guilty verdict

0:01:23.240 --> 0:01:26.840
<v Speaker 1>for former movie producer Harvey Weinstein after wild accounts of

0:01:26.880 --> 0:01:28.240
<v Speaker 1>a hostile jury room.

0:01:28.520 --> 0:01:32.160
<v Speaker 2>Also, former ABC News correspondentary Moran breaks his silence after

0:01:32.200 --> 0:01:34.480
<v Speaker 2>being let go from the network for a late night

0:01:34.480 --> 0:01:38.720
<v Speaker 2>tweet against the Trump administration. And two hours and fifty

0:01:38.800 --> 0:01:43.080
<v Speaker 2>four minutes and an AURA sleep score of fifty four.

0:01:43.720 --> 0:01:45.640
<v Speaker 2>And it was all worth it for me to see

0:01:45.720 --> 0:01:49.240
<v Speaker 2>Game three of the NBA Finals last night, Rhodes. I

0:01:49.280 --> 0:01:50.880
<v Speaker 2>made a mistake not long ago, and I went to

0:01:50.880 --> 0:01:52.840
<v Speaker 2>sleep on a game earlyer than I should have, and

0:01:52.880 --> 0:01:54.880
<v Speaker 2>I missed the comeback. It's not gonna happen again.

0:01:54.920 --> 0:01:57.800
<v Speaker 1>How you feeling today with that less than three hours

0:01:57.840 --> 0:01:58.240
<v Speaker 1>of sleeping?

0:01:58.280 --> 0:01:59.240
<v Speaker 2>Look look at my face.

0:02:00.240 --> 0:02:01.200
<v Speaker 1>You look pretty tired.

0:02:01.360 --> 0:02:02.680
<v Speaker 2>I am chipper as I can be.

0:02:02.760 --> 0:02:04.480
<v Speaker 1>This is the eyes. It's in the eyes. It's gonna

0:02:04.480 --> 0:02:07.800
<v Speaker 1>be lids, all right. We're going to begin our run

0:02:07.880 --> 0:02:10.880
<v Speaker 1>with more on those protests in LA and across the country.

0:02:11.120 --> 0:02:14.560
<v Speaker 1>President Trump will face off against California Governor Gavin Newsom

0:02:14.680 --> 0:02:17.640
<v Speaker 1>in court today, and we say face off, so to speak.

0:02:17.840 --> 0:02:20.760
<v Speaker 1>Newsom and his state sued the Trump administration after the

0:02:20.800 --> 0:02:23.920
<v Speaker 1>President sent in National Guard and Marines in response to

0:02:24.000 --> 0:02:27.640
<v Speaker 1>all that on rest in downtown LA. They're challenging the

0:02:27.720 --> 0:02:30.280
<v Speaker 1>constitutionality of Trump's moveth.

0:02:30.160 --> 0:02:32.440
<v Speaker 2>All right, So with all that's getting worked out in court,

0:02:32.560 --> 0:02:35.120
<v Speaker 2>things were a little calmer on the streets of downtown

0:02:35.280 --> 0:02:38.200
<v Speaker 2>LA for the sixth day of anti ice protest. The

0:02:38.240 --> 0:02:40.880
<v Speaker 2>curfew seem to be working for a second straight night,

0:02:40.919 --> 0:02:43.480
<v Speaker 2>though there were sporadic clashes and authorities at one point

0:02:43.560 --> 0:02:47.680
<v Speaker 2>declared unlawful assembly around city hall. These protests are catching

0:02:47.720 --> 0:02:51.279
<v Speaker 2>on in more than a dozen US city San Antonio, Philadelphia,

0:02:51.280 --> 0:02:54.639
<v Speaker 2>San Francisco, Denver, Spokane, Seattle, New York, just to name

0:02:54.680 --> 0:02:55.080
<v Speaker 2>a few.

0:02:55.320 --> 0:02:59.200
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, New York. We watched it again from our apartment window,

0:02:59.360 --> 0:03:02.640
<v Speaker 1>seeing all the folks gathering, but again fairly peacefully, with

0:03:02.720 --> 0:03:04.600
<v Speaker 1>a lot of signs and a lot of shouting and

0:03:04.639 --> 0:03:07.720
<v Speaker 1>even marching bands. The Texas governor announced he will be

0:03:07.760 --> 0:03:11.639
<v Speaker 1>deploying his States National Guard in anticipation of demonstrations there.

0:03:11.639 --> 0:03:14.640
<v Speaker 1>We've already seen some in Austin and in Dallas. There

0:03:14.720 --> 0:03:17.639
<v Speaker 1>was also a protest outside the arena for Game three

0:03:17.680 --> 0:03:21.200
<v Speaker 1>of the NBA Finals, which TJ just mentioned. Will have

0:03:21.320 --> 0:03:23.880
<v Speaker 1>much more on that that, of course, happened in Indianapolis.

0:03:24.120 --> 0:03:26.840
<v Speaker 2>I will continue our run now. With the co founder

0:03:26.919 --> 0:03:31.880
<v Speaker 2>and creative mastermind behind the Beach Boys, Brian Wilson, has

0:03:32.040 --> 0:03:35.240
<v Speaker 2>passed away at the age of eighty two. His bandmate

0:03:35.280 --> 0:03:38.000
<v Speaker 2>said Wilson wasn't just the heart of the Beach Boys,

0:03:38.040 --> 0:03:40.720
<v Speaker 2>he was the soul of our sounds. The melodies he

0:03:40.800 --> 0:03:43.320
<v Speaker 2>dreamed up and the emotions he poured into every note

0:03:43.440 --> 0:03:45.680
<v Speaker 2>changed the course of music forever.

0:03:45.800 --> 0:03:48.800
<v Speaker 1>Wilson's family made the announcement of his passing on social media,

0:03:48.880 --> 0:03:51.400
<v Speaker 1>saying they are heartbroken and at a loss for words

0:03:51.480 --> 0:03:54.280
<v Speaker 1>right now, adding that while they are asking for privacy,

0:03:54.640 --> 0:03:58.360
<v Speaker 1>they realize that we are sharing our grief with the world.

0:03:58.600 --> 0:04:01.680
<v Speaker 1>Wilson founded The Beach Boys in the early nineteen sixties

0:04:01.720 --> 0:04:04.000
<v Speaker 1>and with his brothers, his cousin and a good friend,

0:04:04.040 --> 0:04:07.160
<v Speaker 1>and by nineteen sixty three they had their first big hit.

0:04:07.680 --> 0:04:10.680
<v Speaker 1>I think you might have heard it before surfing USA

0:04:11.040 --> 0:04:14.680
<v Speaker 1>from there. Their hits are endless and timeless. My nineteen

0:04:14.760 --> 0:04:18.640
<v Speaker 1>year old has the Beach Boys on loop. She loves

0:04:18.760 --> 0:04:19.360
<v Speaker 1>their music.

0:04:19.560 --> 0:04:22.440
<v Speaker 2>So here we go. Help me, Ronda, I get around

0:04:23.000 --> 0:04:28.400
<v Speaker 2>California girls. Good vibrations. God only knows. Wouldn't he be nice?

0:04:28.920 --> 0:04:31.040
<v Speaker 1>I could sing all of those right now. They're just

0:04:31.120 --> 0:04:31.960
<v Speaker 1>so familiar.

0:04:32.080 --> 0:04:35.360
<v Speaker 2>See here's the weird thing to me. I can too.

0:04:36.000 --> 0:04:38.599
<v Speaker 2>But I never grew up with Beach Boys in the house.

0:04:38.920 --> 0:04:41.240
<v Speaker 2>And I'll be honest, you say the name Brian Wilson,

0:04:41.320 --> 0:04:44.800
<v Speaker 2>it didn't come to mind. That is not an insult

0:04:44.839 --> 0:04:48.040
<v Speaker 2>to It's more of a compliment. I never sought out

0:04:48.080 --> 0:04:51.359
<v Speaker 2>their music, but it was ubiquitous, ubiquitous in my life.

0:04:51.400 --> 0:04:54.680
<v Speaker 2>It's everywhere, to the point I know the lyrics to

0:04:54.839 --> 0:04:57.520
<v Speaker 2>every single one of their songs, even though I didn't

0:04:57.520 --> 0:04:58.800
<v Speaker 2>grow up seeking out the music.

0:04:58.960 --> 0:05:02.280
<v Speaker 1>Ah and they it's their sound was so fun. It

0:05:02.320 --> 0:05:05.960
<v Speaker 1>was like summer fun, happy good times, Like you feel

0:05:06.040 --> 0:05:07.760
<v Speaker 1>joyful when you hear their music. Yeah.

0:05:07.800 --> 0:05:11.159
<v Speaker 2>So thirty singles in the top forty with worldwide sales

0:05:11.160 --> 0:05:14.280
<v Speaker 2>of more than on one hundred million. Wilson had several

0:05:14.320 --> 0:05:16.840
<v Speaker 2>career achievements. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll

0:05:16.880 --> 0:05:18.440
<v Speaker 2>Hall of Fame with the Beach Boys. That was in

0:05:18.520 --> 0:05:21.640
<v Speaker 2>nineteen eighty eight. He's also in the Songwriters Hall of Fame,

0:05:21.680 --> 0:05:24.839
<v Speaker 2>and he was also recognized by the Kennedy Center Honors.

0:05:25.080 --> 0:05:27.960
<v Speaker 1>After his wife died last year, Wilson's publicist and his

0:05:28.040 --> 0:05:30.760
<v Speaker 1>manager became co conservators of him because he had a

0:05:30.800 --> 0:05:34.840
<v Speaker 1>major neurocognitive disorder and he needed full time care and

0:05:34.880 --> 0:05:38.400
<v Speaker 1>a full time care giver. Wilson is survived by his daughters.

0:05:38.440 --> 0:05:41.440
<v Speaker 1>You might know them Carney and Wendy. They are two

0:05:41.480 --> 0:05:44.280
<v Speaker 1>thirds of the singing trio Wilson Phillips, and five other

0:05:44.360 --> 0:05:47.800
<v Speaker 1>children he adopted with his second wife, as well as grandchildren.

0:05:47.839 --> 0:05:50.760
<v Speaker 1>But so many celebrities have reacted to the passing of

0:05:50.800 --> 0:05:53.640
<v Speaker 1>Brian Wilson. I love what Elton John said. He said

0:05:53.680 --> 0:05:57.839
<v Speaker 1>that Brian Wilson was the biggest influence on my songwriting ever.

0:05:58.400 --> 0:06:00.640
<v Speaker 1>And if you love the Beach Boys and you followed them,

0:06:00.680 --> 0:06:03.240
<v Speaker 1>we certainly have them in studio with us several times,

0:06:03.279 --> 0:06:05.720
<v Speaker 1>but John Stamos would sometimes be the drummer for them

0:06:05.760 --> 0:06:08.200
<v Speaker 1>when they would go on tour. He said, Brian Wilson

0:06:08.200 --> 0:06:10.600
<v Speaker 1>didn't just soundtrack my life. He filled it with color,

0:06:10.720 --> 0:06:14.080
<v Speaker 1>with wonder and some of the most unforgettable emotional joyful

0:06:14.120 --> 0:06:15.839
<v Speaker 1>moments I have ever known.

0:06:17.760 --> 0:06:20.280
<v Speaker 2>It's got to be one of the most influential groups

0:06:20.279 --> 0:06:23.120
<v Speaker 2>in the history of music. And to lose and to

0:06:23.160 --> 0:06:24.839
<v Speaker 2>hear them say, yes, it was a group, but to

0:06:24.839 --> 0:06:27.400
<v Speaker 2>hear them say that he was the key, he was

0:06:27.480 --> 0:06:30.760
<v Speaker 2>the mastermind. I mean, this is music royalty, this is

0:06:30.880 --> 0:06:34.159
<v Speaker 2>music legend and genius that we just lost on a

0:06:34.240 --> 0:06:35.360
<v Speaker 2>level we don't see that often.

0:06:35.480 --> 0:06:38.839
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I'll be definitely playing some Beach Boys music today.

0:06:38.960 --> 0:06:40.560
<v Speaker 2>All right, I want to continue on the run here

0:06:40.560 --> 0:06:44.240
<v Speaker 2>with another sad passing. Ananda Lewis, long time and wildly

0:06:44.279 --> 0:06:48.800
<v Speaker 2>popular MTVVJ, has died at the age of fifty two.

0:06:48.960 --> 0:06:51.960
<v Speaker 2>She was with MTV for its heyday, hosting several shows

0:06:52.000 --> 0:06:55.240
<v Speaker 2>including Total Request Live and if you have a certain age,

0:06:55.279 --> 0:06:56.560
<v Speaker 2>certainly remember TRL.

0:06:56.800 --> 0:06:57.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:06:57.200 --> 0:06:59.880
<v Speaker 2>Her sister released the statement saying that Lewis was now

0:07:00.080 --> 0:07:03.200
<v Speaker 2>quote free and in his heaven lyon Ah.

0:07:03.320 --> 0:07:06.159
<v Speaker 1>This is deeply personal for me because this is just

0:07:06.320 --> 0:07:09.320
<v Speaker 1>so sad. Lewis was diagnosed with stage three breast cancer

0:07:09.720 --> 0:07:12.960
<v Speaker 1>in twenty twenty, and she spoke openly about her decision

0:07:13.240 --> 0:07:16.760
<v Speaker 1>to go against doctor's advice to have a double mistectomy.

0:07:17.040 --> 0:07:20.120
<v Speaker 1>And it's a decision she said she ended up regretting.

0:07:20.440 --> 0:07:23.640
<v Speaker 1>She admitted this in a CNN interview just last year.

0:07:24.200 --> 0:07:26.680
<v Speaker 1>This is what she said. Her plan at first was

0:07:26.720 --> 0:07:29.880
<v Speaker 1>to get out excessive toxins in my body. I felt

0:07:29.920 --> 0:07:32.840
<v Speaker 1>like my body is intelligent. I know that to be true.

0:07:32.840 --> 0:07:36.280
<v Speaker 1>Our bodies are brilliantly made. I decided to keep my

0:07:36.400 --> 0:07:39.160
<v Speaker 1>tumor and try to work it out of my body

0:07:39.200 --> 0:07:42.119
<v Speaker 1>a different way. She says. I wish I could go back.

0:07:42.440 --> 0:07:45.400
<v Speaker 1>It's important for me to admit where I went wrong

0:07:45.440 --> 0:07:47.800
<v Speaker 1>with this. So she started out with stage three breast cancer.

0:07:47.920 --> 0:07:51.800
<v Speaker 1>She didn't go through with the treatments her doctors had suggested,

0:07:52.160 --> 0:07:56.600
<v Speaker 1>and then her cancer unfortunately metastasized, became stage four and sadly,

0:07:56.680 --> 0:07:59.920
<v Speaker 1>Lewis passed away. She leaves behind the sun, but her sister.

0:08:00.000 --> 0:08:01.680
<v Speaker 1>She said so many beautiful things about her, and so

0:08:01.680 --> 0:08:04.200
<v Speaker 1>many people have wonderful memories of her. And I appreciate

0:08:04.240 --> 0:08:07.280
<v Speaker 1>the fact that she went on and said that publicly

0:08:07.320 --> 0:08:10.480
<v Speaker 1>because some of these decisions, all of these decisions truly

0:08:10.480 --> 0:08:12.880
<v Speaker 1>about your body and dealing with cancer, are deeply personal.

0:08:13.600 --> 0:08:16.000
<v Speaker 1>But she wanted to let other women know that she

0:08:16.120 --> 0:08:19.400
<v Speaker 1>regretted her decision not to have surgery.

0:08:19.840 --> 0:08:22.760
<v Speaker 2>Well deeply personal, you say, and I guess every decision

0:08:22.800 --> 0:08:25.600
<v Speaker 2>feels like it's life or death. And she for her

0:08:25.640 --> 0:08:27.720
<v Speaker 2>to come out admit I was wrong. I wish I'd

0:08:27.760 --> 0:08:29.680
<v Speaker 2>done something different. She talked about she needs to be

0:08:29.720 --> 0:08:33.360
<v Speaker 2>around for her son. This was tub, but it was important. Look,

0:08:33.440 --> 0:08:36.000
<v Speaker 2>she left a hell of a legacy. And you remember

0:08:36.040 --> 0:08:38.640
<v Speaker 2>she was the it girl. She was hot is anything

0:08:38.720 --> 0:08:41.720
<v Speaker 2>I'm hot, not talking about physically, which is thoughtful. She

0:08:41.760 --> 0:08:44.360
<v Speaker 2>was very beautiful, but she was just the it girl

0:08:44.440 --> 0:08:47.240
<v Speaker 2>everywhere doing everything for a long time. And she had

0:08:47.280 --> 0:08:50.200
<v Speaker 2>a great energy. And she's one of those. She's a

0:08:50.360 --> 0:08:53.000
<v Speaker 2>dear friend of a dear friend of mine and first

0:08:53.040 --> 0:08:55.760
<v Speaker 2>met her at a wedding that I was actually m

0:08:55.800 --> 0:09:00.600
<v Speaker 2>seeing and so her energy everything you saw on she

0:09:00.920 --> 0:09:05.319
<v Speaker 2>jumped out at you with a wild, infectious energy about her.

0:09:05.440 --> 0:09:08.360
<v Speaker 2>And so that's tough, but a lesson. She has taught

0:09:08.520 --> 0:09:11.320
<v Speaker 2>us all and we appreciate that. So stay with us

0:09:11.320 --> 0:09:13.800
<v Speaker 2>here though on this morning run folks. When we come back,

0:09:13.840 --> 0:09:16.800
<v Speaker 2>we'll get you updated about what's going on in the

0:09:16.960 --> 0:09:20.400
<v Speaker 2>Diddy trial. Also let you know what happened in the

0:09:20.440 --> 0:09:24.120
<v Speaker 2>Harvey Weinstein trial. This guy is uh, yes, he's just

0:09:24.160 --> 0:09:25.960
<v Speaker 2>been found guilty, but what in the world is going

0:09:25.960 --> 0:09:29.200
<v Speaker 2>on in the jury room? Also an update on r Kelly.

0:09:29.240 --> 0:09:32.199
<v Speaker 2>He says, get me out of prison right now because

0:09:32.200 --> 0:09:43.440
<v Speaker 2>somebody is trying to kill me. All right, welcome back, folks.

0:09:43.520 --> 0:09:45.800
<v Speaker 2>We will continue on our run now with the Diddy trial.

0:09:45.880 --> 0:09:49.760
<v Speaker 2>This is officially week five, day twenty two of the trial,

0:09:49.800 --> 0:09:52.480
<v Speaker 2>and today Jane will be back on the stand for

0:09:52.559 --> 0:09:56.520
<v Speaker 2>the sixth straight day, testifying under that pseudonym to protect

0:09:56.520 --> 0:10:00.000
<v Speaker 2>her identity. Jane dated Shawn Combs up until last year

0:10:00.080 --> 0:10:03.079
<v Speaker 2>and is a key prosecution witness, one of four victims

0:10:03.360 --> 0:10:05.000
<v Speaker 2>the government has based its case on.

0:10:05.320 --> 0:10:07.800
<v Speaker 1>She has been testifying to a pattern of abuse and

0:10:07.880 --> 0:10:10.600
<v Speaker 1>control by Combs in which she felt obligated, she says,

0:10:10.640 --> 0:10:14.319
<v Speaker 1>to participate in so called freak offs. Yesterday, under cross examination,

0:10:14.880 --> 0:10:18.520
<v Speaker 1>Jane cried several times as the defense went through some

0:10:18.720 --> 0:10:22.160
<v Speaker 1>loving and at times explicit messages between her and Diddy,

0:10:22.160 --> 0:10:25.280
<v Speaker 1>and at times having Jane read her own words aloud.

0:10:25.520 --> 0:10:28.319
<v Speaker 1>The defense has been trying to establish the Jane's participation

0:10:28.559 --> 0:10:32.400
<v Speaker 1>in their hotel nights or freak offs was consensual and

0:10:32.440 --> 0:10:34.480
<v Speaker 1>not a matter of coercion.

0:10:34.000 --> 0:10:35.920
<v Speaker 2>Deamn part of making the case, they pointed out that

0:10:36.040 --> 0:10:38.680
<v Speaker 2>Jane had a two month stretch of her relationship in

0:10:38.720 --> 0:10:41.720
<v Speaker 2>which she saw Diddy one on one. There were no

0:10:42.000 --> 0:10:44.920
<v Speaker 2>freak COFs, point there being that doesn't sound like coersion,

0:10:44.960 --> 0:10:47.640
<v Speaker 2>does sound like sex trafficking? You showed up for two

0:10:47.679 --> 0:10:49.240
<v Speaker 2>months and this seemed to be a one on one

0:10:49.280 --> 0:10:53.040
<v Speaker 2>relationship as well. She is expected to spend this day

0:10:53.160 --> 0:10:56.320
<v Speaker 2>on the stand as well, supposed to be her last day.

0:10:56.720 --> 0:10:59.679
<v Speaker 2>And get this, The prosecution told the judge they expect

0:10:59.720 --> 0:11:04.040
<v Speaker 2>to rent their case as early as next Wednesday and

0:11:04.080 --> 0:11:06.160
<v Speaker 2>by the latest next Friday.

0:11:07.000 --> 0:11:09.560
<v Speaker 1>All right, and then the defense gets to make their

0:11:09.600 --> 0:11:12.480
<v Speaker 1>case to the jurors as well. But before testimony even

0:11:12.520 --> 0:11:15.720
<v Speaker 1>begins this morning, as I mentioned jurors, well, the judge

0:11:15.800 --> 0:11:18.800
<v Speaker 1>is expected to address the government's request to kick one

0:11:18.920 --> 0:11:22.360
<v Speaker 1>juror off the jury. This has been a developing issue

0:11:22.400 --> 0:11:25.680
<v Speaker 1>all week and yesterday prosecutors told the judge that after

0:11:25.760 --> 0:11:30.120
<v Speaker 1>investigating one particular juror, they concluded he showed a lack

0:11:30.200 --> 0:11:33.720
<v Speaker 1>of candor with the court. That raises serious questions.

0:11:33.800 --> 0:11:36.440
<v Speaker 2>Now, what does that sound like? Lack of candor with

0:11:36.600 --> 0:11:39.400
<v Speaker 2>the court. It sounds like he kept something.

0:11:39.160 --> 0:11:41.000
<v Speaker 1>From them, tell them something that they needed to know.

0:11:41.160 --> 0:11:43.400
<v Speaker 2>It needs to all right, So it has been made

0:11:43.480 --> 0:11:47.079
<v Speaker 2>clear this week what exactly the issue is with this juror,

0:11:47.080 --> 0:11:49.040
<v Speaker 2>But whatever the issue is, that the defense has no

0:11:49.160 --> 0:11:51.920
<v Speaker 2>problem with this juror and is asking the judge to

0:11:52.080 --> 0:11:55.560
<v Speaker 2>keep him, saying the government is making a quote thinly

0:11:55.800 --> 0:12:00.600
<v Speaker 2>veiled effort to dismiss a black juror. Now, if juror

0:12:00.640 --> 0:12:02.520
<v Speaker 2>were to be dismissed, would be the first time that

0:12:02.559 --> 0:12:05.280
<v Speaker 2>a jury has been dismissed in this case. In Robes,

0:12:05.320 --> 0:12:08.400
<v Speaker 2>I've forgot to mention here what was a few weeks

0:12:08.440 --> 0:12:12.480
<v Speaker 2>ago the judge got on to Diddy for making too

0:12:12.559 --> 0:12:15.840
<v Speaker 2>much eye contact and acknowledging and almost communicating with one

0:12:16.000 --> 0:12:16.840
<v Speaker 2>juror in particular.

0:12:17.040 --> 0:12:18.960
<v Speaker 1>So we don't know if that's the same juror, but

0:12:19.000 --> 0:12:22.480
<v Speaker 1>we will have more information today when that trial resumes

0:12:22.520 --> 0:12:25.240
<v Speaker 1>next up on the Run, Though, singer and convicted sex

0:12:25.280 --> 0:12:28.160
<v Speaker 1>trafficker are Kelly says there is a murder for higher

0:12:28.200 --> 0:12:32.880
<v Speaker 1>plot against him in prison, orchestrated by prison officials. The

0:12:32.920 --> 0:12:35.080
<v Speaker 1>fifty eight year old Singer has been behind bars since

0:12:35.120 --> 0:12:38.120
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty two, serving a thirty year sentence for racketeering

0:12:38.240 --> 0:12:39.199
<v Speaker 1>and sex trafficking.

0:12:39.320 --> 0:12:42.040
<v Speaker 2>His lawyers are asking that Kelly be moved from federal

0:12:42.040 --> 0:12:45.960
<v Speaker 2>prison to home detention after they claim three prison officials

0:12:45.960 --> 0:12:50.800
<v Speaker 2>have been plotting to have a fellow inmate kill him Okay.

0:12:50.840 --> 0:12:55.800
<v Speaker 2>His attorneys released this statement, quote, Federal officers have solicited

0:12:55.840 --> 0:12:59.960
<v Speaker 2>the murder of R. Kelly because he intends to expose

0:13:00.120 --> 0:13:05.160
<v Speaker 2>the corruption underlying his federal prosecutions. We have filed our

0:13:05.200 --> 0:13:07.880
<v Speaker 2>motion to make sure that they fail. The only thing

0:13:07.920 --> 0:13:10.240
<v Speaker 2>that can protect mister Kelly behind the prison walls now

0:13:10.320 --> 0:13:13.320
<v Speaker 2>is the fact that now the world is watching, and

0:13:13.360 --> 0:13:16.440
<v Speaker 2>we will call on the courts and President Trump to

0:13:16.520 --> 0:13:19.520
<v Speaker 2>help put an end to the corruption that now threatens

0:13:19.760 --> 0:13:21.680
<v Speaker 2>mister Kelly's life.

0:13:22.040 --> 0:13:25.439
<v Speaker 1>Kelly's lawyers provided a sworn statement from that inmate, who

0:13:25.480 --> 0:13:28.319
<v Speaker 1>says officials offered to release him because he has a

0:13:28.400 --> 0:13:32.680
<v Speaker 1>terminal illness if he murdered Kelly. That inmate also claims

0:13:32.679 --> 0:13:35.600
<v Speaker 1>he was previously instructed to order beatings and killings of

0:13:35.640 --> 0:13:39.160
<v Speaker 1>other inmates by prison officials and says he was transferred

0:13:39.200 --> 0:13:41.839
<v Speaker 1>this spring to the facility where Kelly is being held

0:13:42.240 --> 0:13:44.880
<v Speaker 1>and placed in the same unit as him to carry

0:13:44.880 --> 0:13:48.200
<v Speaker 1>out their orders. The Bureau of Prisons had no comment

0:13:48.360 --> 0:13:51.199
<v Speaker 1>on these allegations, saying they will not comment on pending

0:13:51.240 --> 0:13:55.200
<v Speaker 1>litigation or matters that are the subject of legal proceedings.

0:13:55.559 --> 0:13:58.000
<v Speaker 1>This is a wild story.

0:13:58.480 --> 0:14:01.720
<v Speaker 2>Um, it sounds like some wild conspiracy theory. But we

0:14:01.760 --> 0:14:03.480
<v Speaker 2>will see how this one plays out. But asking for

0:14:03.600 --> 0:14:07.000
<v Speaker 2>r Kelly to be released immediately at sinhom that's probably

0:14:07.280 --> 0:14:09.600
<v Speaker 2>not probably a tall order, not gonna happen, all right,

0:14:09.640 --> 0:14:12.880
<v Speaker 2>we go from a Diddy to R Kelly to now

0:14:12.920 --> 0:14:16.720
<v Speaker 2>Harvey Weinstein. Yes, we turned to the Harvey Weinstein trial,

0:14:16.760 --> 0:14:20.960
<v Speaker 2>where there's a partial verdict in the case and apparently

0:14:21.040 --> 0:14:23.520
<v Speaker 2>a hot mess in the jury room. The former Hollywood

0:14:23.520 --> 0:14:26.520
<v Speaker 2>heavyweight has been on trial in New York for sex crimes,

0:14:26.520 --> 0:14:29.080
<v Speaker 2>and after five days of deliberations, the jury came back

0:14:29.160 --> 0:14:34.560
<v Speaker 2>yesterday and said guilty of criminal sexual misconduct against one woman,

0:14:35.160 --> 0:14:38.680
<v Speaker 2>not guilty of that same charge against another woman. But

0:14:38.720 --> 0:14:41.280
<v Speaker 2>then the jury said they were deadlocked on a third

0:14:41.320 --> 0:14:42.200
<v Speaker 2>count of rape.

0:14:42.440 --> 0:14:47.400
<v Speaker 1>And before all of this there was some unusual jury activity. First,

0:14:47.440 --> 0:14:49.680
<v Speaker 1>the jury four persons sent a note to the judge

0:14:49.800 --> 0:14:55.560
<v Speaker 1>which read, cannot go back inside with those people. Those

0:14:55.720 --> 0:15:00.000
<v Speaker 1>people being his fellow jurors. His note led the judge

0:15:00.320 --> 0:15:02.080
<v Speaker 1>to call him into his chambers for a meeting in

0:15:02.120 --> 0:15:05.600
<v Speaker 1>which the foreman said the jurors were attacking each other. Yea.

0:15:05.680 --> 0:15:09.000
<v Speaker 2>He told the judge he didn't feel safe going back

0:15:09.080 --> 0:15:12.680
<v Speaker 2>in there because one juror told him he'd see him outside.

0:15:13.760 --> 0:15:16.760
<v Speaker 2>What is happening? So how the judge handle all this,

0:15:16.960 --> 0:15:19.640
<v Speaker 2>you might wonder. He told him to get their butts

0:15:19.720 --> 0:15:23.680
<v Speaker 2>back in there, come back today, continued deliberating and try

0:15:23.720 --> 0:15:25.600
<v Speaker 2>to come to a conclusion on the one count they're

0:15:25.640 --> 0:15:28.640
<v Speaker 2>deadlocked on. And a reminder, all this going on, this

0:15:28.760 --> 0:15:32.320
<v Speaker 2>was part of a retrial. He was previously convicted of

0:15:32.360 --> 0:15:34.720
<v Speaker 2>some of these charges and then that was thrown out

0:15:34.760 --> 0:15:38.480
<v Speaker 2>on a procedural matter. But even forget all that, he's

0:15:38.520 --> 0:15:43.040
<v Speaker 2>already serving a sixteen year prison sentence for convictions in California.

0:15:42.480 --> 0:15:46.840
<v Speaker 1>And this is in New York. So it's actually kind

0:15:46.840 --> 0:15:48.680
<v Speaker 1>of I don't want to say his point less because

0:15:48.720 --> 0:15:51.080
<v Speaker 1>I know the victims want justice and all of that,

0:15:51.160 --> 0:15:54.960
<v Speaker 1>but he's already serving sixteen years. He is in extremely

0:15:55.040 --> 0:15:58.960
<v Speaker 1>poor health, so any more years on his sentence, I

0:15:58.960 --> 0:16:02.360
<v Speaker 1>don't know how actually how much time he'll actually serve

0:16:02.440 --> 0:16:04.960
<v Speaker 1>extra beyond this sixteen years. But we shall see what

0:16:05.000 --> 0:16:07.520
<v Speaker 1>happens in court today. All right, Next up on our

0:16:07.560 --> 0:16:10.360
<v Speaker 1>run Terry Moran has spoken, and he did not give

0:16:10.360 --> 0:16:14.800
<v Speaker 1>an apology or even an explanation for his blistering tweet

0:16:14.880 --> 0:16:16.560
<v Speaker 1>that cost him his job at ABC.

0:16:16.680 --> 0:16:19.040
<v Speaker 2>I at least wanted an explanation. Maybe I wanted to

0:16:19.040 --> 0:16:21.480
<v Speaker 2>know what this was about. But Moran was initially suspended

0:16:21.520 --> 0:16:23.720
<v Speaker 2>after his social media post in which he referred to

0:16:24.000 --> 0:16:26.480
<v Speaker 2>both President Trump and his deputy chief of staff as

0:16:26.800 --> 0:16:30.000
<v Speaker 2>world class haters. He said a whole bunch of other

0:16:30.160 --> 0:16:32.720
<v Speaker 2>very personal stuff in there attacking them. But ABC News

0:16:32.880 --> 0:16:36.240
<v Speaker 2>went further after initially suspending him and announced yesterday that

0:16:36.320 --> 0:16:38.320
<v Speaker 2>Moran wouldn't return to the network.

0:16:38.440 --> 0:16:41.000
<v Speaker 1>Moran had an announcement of his own yesterday, posting a

0:16:41.080 --> 0:16:43.600
<v Speaker 1>video on x of himself sitting behind a desk with

0:16:43.640 --> 0:16:46.680
<v Speaker 1>a bookshelf behind him, and he spoke directly to the camera.

0:16:46.920 --> 0:16:49.960
<v Speaker 1>He starts his message with this cheeky line. For almost

0:16:50.040 --> 0:16:52.480
<v Speaker 1>twenty eight years, I was a reporter and anchor at

0:16:52.480 --> 0:16:56.800
<v Speaker 1>ABC News. As you may have heard, I'm not there anymore.

0:16:56.800 --> 0:16:59.520
<v Speaker 2>Okay, And that's where he left it. He said, I'm

0:16:59.560 --> 0:17:03.480
<v Speaker 2>not there any or I'm now here. On substack, he's

0:17:03.520 --> 0:17:06.560
<v Speaker 2>announcing that he is doing something with Substack. He didn't

0:17:06.560 --> 0:17:08.920
<v Speaker 2>give a lot of details about what he'll be doing,

0:17:08.960 --> 0:17:11.640
<v Speaker 2>but said he wants to get at it on the

0:17:11.680 --> 0:17:13.840
<v Speaker 2>important work that we all have to do.

0:17:14.240 --> 0:17:16.960
<v Speaker 1>So everything sounds fairly deliberate and intentional.

0:17:17.359 --> 0:17:20.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, they announced that he's not coming back to the network,

0:17:20.640 --> 0:17:24.840
<v Speaker 2>and hours later he announced that he's got something else cooking.

0:17:25.560 --> 0:17:29.399
<v Speaker 1>Okay, all right, Well that was one of our conjectures

0:17:29.440 --> 0:17:31.840
<v Speaker 1>that perhaps he went out with the blaze of glory intentionally.

0:17:31.880 --> 0:17:33.679
<v Speaker 1>All right. The final leg of our run takes us

0:17:33.680 --> 0:17:36.879
<v Speaker 1>to Indianapolis for Game three of the NBA Finals between

0:17:36.880 --> 0:17:40.040
<v Speaker 1>the Indiana Pacers and the Oklahoma City Thunder. This was

0:17:40.080 --> 0:17:43.720
<v Speaker 1>the first NBA Finals game in this basketball crazed city

0:17:43.800 --> 0:17:46.919
<v Speaker 1>in twenty five years, and their hometown Pacers made it

0:17:46.960 --> 0:17:48.080
<v Speaker 1>a special night. Yeah.

0:17:48.119 --> 0:17:50.199
<v Speaker 2>They won this game one, sixteen, one oh seven in

0:17:50.240 --> 0:17:53.919
<v Speaker 2>front of a really fun, exuberant home crowd. It was

0:17:53.960 --> 0:17:56.240
<v Speaker 2>cool to see them. This is love, this is Indiana,

0:17:56.359 --> 0:18:00.640
<v Speaker 2>this is where basketball was born. They breathe the stuff, so.

0:18:00.640 --> 0:18:02.760
<v Speaker 1>That measures that's what you think of.

0:18:02.960 --> 0:18:05.320
<v Speaker 2>It's really cool to see them having a nice moment again.

0:18:05.359 --> 0:18:08.919
<v Speaker 2>So now the Pacers up to one in the series.

0:18:08.960 --> 0:18:11.400
<v Speaker 2>Game four is going to be Friday night in Indianapolis,

0:18:11.680 --> 0:18:12.639
<v Speaker 2>as well.

0:18:12.520 --> 0:18:14.760
<v Speaker 1>Okay, at least if it's Friday night, you can sleep

0:18:14.760 --> 0:18:17.359
<v Speaker 1>in on Saturday mornings, so maybe I'll even watch it

0:18:17.400 --> 0:18:18.200
<v Speaker 1>with you dead.

0:18:18.320 --> 0:18:21.600
<v Speaker 2>It's worth it. But maybe we should get through my eyes.

0:18:21.680 --> 0:18:24.320
<v Speaker 1>I swear you're so heavy. Okay, oh, I know it's

0:18:24.480 --> 0:18:27.080
<v Speaker 1>very true, all right, so we'll get through this very quickly.

0:18:27.640 --> 0:18:29.600
<v Speaker 1>Here is our quote of the day, something we'd like

0:18:29.600 --> 0:18:32.080
<v Speaker 1>you to consider it as you go about your day today.

0:18:32.119 --> 0:18:35.640
<v Speaker 1>You might use this one too, TJ. Whether you think

0:18:35.680 --> 0:18:39.639
<v Speaker 1>you can or you think you can't, you're right. That

0:18:39.760 --> 0:18:41.879
<v Speaker 1>is from Henry Ford, and I love that the power

0:18:42.000 --> 0:18:45.520
<v Speaker 1>of our thoughts. It's real. So if you think you

0:18:45.520 --> 0:18:47.080
<v Speaker 1>can stay awake, TJ, you can.

0:18:48.040 --> 0:18:50.440
<v Speaker 2>And if I think I can't, I'll probably be napping soon.

0:18:51.680 --> 0:18:53.480
<v Speaker 2>But with that tug that with you today, folks, whether

0:18:53.520 --> 0:18:56.359
<v Speaker 2>you think you can or you think you can't, you

0:18:56.560 --> 0:18:58.800
<v Speaker 2>are right. And with that we always appreciate you running

0:18:58.800 --> 0:18:59.080
<v Speaker 2>with us.

0:18:59.119 --> 0:19:02.520
<v Speaker 1>I am Tjing and I'm Amy Robot. Have a wonderful

0:19:02.600 --> 0:19:04.400
<v Speaker 1>day today and will see you on the run tomorrow.

0:19:09.400 --> 0:19:09.440
<v Speaker 1>M
