In 11 00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:38,919 Speaker 1: an interview with True Crime Arizona. Here's what he'd say 12 00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:40,240 Speaker 1: to internet sleuths. 13 00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:44,239 Speaker 2: Just not to go off speculation of everything you hear 14 00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:46,960 Speaker 2: on the internet, and kind of like the hive mind 15 00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:49,640 Speaker 2: mentality that someone says something and then they just go 16 00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:51,840 Speaker 2: off of it based on no evidence, no truth. 17 00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:55,840 Speaker 1: Users had circulated his name and photo on social media, 18 00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:59,080 Speaker 1: claiming he resembled the mask man captured on doorbell video 19 00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:03,280 Speaker 1: the night Nancy Gouthree vanished. Daily flatly rejects that theory. 20 00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:06,400 Speaker 2: It's not me. I don't see the resemblance of it 21 00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:10,280 Speaker 2: looking like me, but absolutely not. I have nothing to 22 00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:10,959 Speaker 2: do with this case. 23 00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:14,560 Speaker 1: Asked whether he had any knowledge about who may be responsible. 24 00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 2: I don't. If I did, I would happily tell FBI 25 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:25,919 Speaker 2: please anything. I mean, I, like everyone else's, want Nancy 26 00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:26,959 Speaker 2: to come home and be safe. 27 00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:30,960 Speaker 1: Daily has not been named a suspect. His attorney previously 28 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:33,920 Speaker 1: confirmed he has no known link to Nancy Guthrie and 29 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:37,120 Speaker 1: was not arrested in connection with the case. As scrutiny 30 00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:41,640 Speaker 1: swirls around that early detention, investigators are also clarifying one 31 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,960 Speaker 1: of their most publicized leads, the backpack worn by the 32 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:49,160 Speaker 1: masked suspect. P Mac County Sheriff Chris Nanos says detectives 33 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:52,760 Speaker 1: initially believe the black Ozark trail hiker pack seen in 34 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 1: surveillance video was purchased at Walmart. That detail was widely 35 00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 1: reported as a promising lead. Now, the sheriff tells NBA 36 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 1: investigators are reassessing. 37 00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 3: We've now learned that maybe it wasn't Virtus down of Walmart. 38 00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:08,240 Speaker 3: That Backpeck has knew it was exclusive the Walmart, But 39 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 3: who's to say? I didn't buy it and put it 40 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 3: on eBay. That's what we're looking at. 41 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 1: The sheriff has faced mounting criticism over the pace and 42 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:20,120 Speaker 1: handling of the investigation. Still he maintains progress is being made. 43 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:23,400 Speaker 3: I think the investigators are definitely closer. We got a 44 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:26,440 Speaker 3: lot of intel, a lot of leads, but now it's 45 00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:27,560 Speaker 3: time to just go to work. 46 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:31,120 Speaker 1: He is declining to release additional evidence, defending that decision 47 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,400 Speaker 1: against those who think they haven't shared enough. 48 00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:38,520 Speaker 3: There's so much that everybody wants to know, right but 49 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:43,880 Speaker 3: I would be very neglectful, irresponsible as a police law 50 00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 3: enforcement leader to share that with everybody. 51 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 1: Monday marked more than a month since Nancy disappeared.

They said hindsight is not proof 106 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:56,160 Speaker 1: of criminal intent. They said the shooter alone is responsible. 107 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:59,880 Speaker 1: But prosecutors told jurors this case was about the father's choices. 108 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:02,919 Speaker 1: They said there was one simple step that could have 109 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:08,039 Speaker 1: prevented the tragedy, take the rifle away. Colin Gray showed 110 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 1: little visible reaction as deputies placed him a handcuffs.

Doctors 133 00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:29,080 Speaker 1: determined the pattern met the definition of child torture, describing 134 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:33,040 Speaker 1: a long term combination of physical abuse and psychological maltreatment. 135 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 1: The children's mother, Ashley Cardona, aged thirty one, and their 136 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:41,120 Speaker 1: grandmother Lori Cardona, fifty three, each face seventeen felony counts, 137 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 1: including aggravated assault, unlawful restraint, and endangering the welfare of children. 138 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 1: The children's uncle, Michael Cardona, aged twenty nine, faces six 139 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 1: felony counts, including conspiracy and unlawful restraint.

I will 175 00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 6: say that we're already in touch with Waimo and the 176 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:53,120 Speaker 6: autonomous vehicles to give them more concerns and work with 177 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 6: them in order to try to address. 178 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:55,400 Speaker 3: This moving forward. 179 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 1: The gunfire erupted just before two am Sunday outside Bufort's 180 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 1: bar on West six. Investigators continued to examine the motive 181 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:05,719 Speaker 1: behind the shooting, which authorities have said may have indicators 182 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:08,680 Speaker 1: of terrorism. The victims have been identified and the case 183 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 1: remains under active investigation. Austin has become a major testing 184 00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:16,640 Speaker 1: ground for autonomous vehicles. In recent months, Waymo vehicles have 185 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 1: faced scrutiny across the country over reports of stopping in 186 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 1: intersections improperly passing school buses, some of which prompting a 187 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 1: voluntary software recall. San Francisco leaders are pointing to a 188 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 1: recent blackout crisis as a warning about the limits of 189 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:34,960 Speaker 1: autonomous vehicles. During a packed city hall hearing, members of 190 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 1: the Board of Supervisors pressed WEIMO executives about the company's 191 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:41,800 Speaker 1: performance during a massive December twentieth power outage that knocked 192 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:45,319 Speaker 1: out traffic lights across much of San Francisco. The blackout, 193 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 1: sparked by a fire at a power substation, left traffic 194 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:52,559 Speaker 1: signals dark and triggered widespread gridlock. According to city officials, 195 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 1: nearly one thousand, six hundred Waymo vehicles stopped for at 196 00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:58,440 Speaker 1: least two minutes during the outage. More than sixty had 197 00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 1: to be manually moved. Some frozen intersections, others blocked buses 198 00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:06,320 Speaker 1: and emergency crews. Supervisor by Lal mah Mood compares the 199 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 1: vehicles to storybook magic. 200 00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:13,080 Speaker 7: Like Cinderella's magical carriages, But just like in the fairy tale, 201 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:16,360 Speaker 7: we can now see that those carriages can turn into 202 00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:18,240 Speaker 7: pumpkins at the drop of a hat. 203 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 1: Emergency officials described difficulty reaching the company as the crisis unfolded. 204 00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:26,320 Speaker 1: The Director of Emergency Management says her department was placed 205 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:29,240 Speaker 1: on hold for fifty three minutes while trying to contact 206 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:32,800 Speaker 1: Weaimo's support center. The company told supervisors it has since 207 00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:37,079 Speaker 1: rolled out fleetwide software updates to better recognize regional outages 208 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:41,199 Speaker 1: and respond to dark intersections without waiting for remote Human assistance. 209 00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:44,319 Speaker 1: Officials set about seventy dispatchers at a call center in 210 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:48,200 Speaker 1: the Philippines assist vehicles requiring intervention, but that system was 211 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 1: overwhelmed during the outage.
