Thank you, al secretary of state Antony Blinken arrived in ukraine for a series of key meetings as the war there rages on Richard Engel is in kyiv for us this morning good morning so the goal of this visit . Reporter so the goal, according to the secretary of state himself, is to express support for ukraine. Secretary blinken arrived here in kyiv this morning he took an overnight train from poland and just about three hours before he arrived, russia sending a message attacking the city with another missile attack however, there was no significant damage the missiles were shot down. But this is the first visit by a senior u. S. Official since the major ukrainian counter offensive began about three months ago and according to Senior State Department official, the timing is key because now three months into the offensive, the u. S. Wants to show support as there hasnt been much focus on this war. They want to bring the war front and center to the american peoples attention the official describing it almost as a back to school visit. Now the summer is over the fall has begun the Un General Assembly meeting in just about two weeks from now. So an idea for the two sides to reconnect, get on the same page going into the fall. You mentioned the counter offensive. I know it was a slow start in the early days is there any progress to report . It is incredibly difficult. The ukrainians were making tremendous advances in the early phase of this war. Anyone thats watched war for a long time knows it is not a linear thing it is more phases and stages and this particular stage is incredibly difficult because the ukrainians are fighting against dugin troops. And the russians have significant defenses three lines of defenses with trenches and land mines. According to ukrainians, millions of land mines have been placed covering an area roughly the size of florida. So the ukrainians are driving into this, trying to punch a hole through these fortified, Russian Defense positions and doing this at a tremendous cost to themselves according to estimates by u. S. Officials. Now roughly 500,000 killed and injured on both sides. 300,000 on the russian side, 200,000 on the ukrainian side. Many of those casualties happening during this counter offensive. What a toll Richard Engel, thank you for an update. A central figure in the u. S. Capitol attack has been handed down the stiffest sentence so far. The judge ruled yesterday that Enrique Tarrio will be spending 22 years behind bars they were convicted in may of seditious conspiracy now, while not physically present during the january 6th riot, prosecutors say he directed it. He apologized yesterday in court saying, quote, to the men and women in Law Enforcement who answered the call that day, im sorry. There are new developments this morning in that urgent man hunt for an escaped inmate in pennsylvania after multiple sightings over the last few days. George solis on the story again for us this morning. Hi, george good morning. Reporter that search area only continues expanding now, residents are growing for anxious by the day they just want this killer caught so they can go back to their everyday lives escaped killer, danielo cavalcanti has been on the run for seven days its important we keep pressure on him. Reporter the manhunt intensifying for yet another sighting of him. This time at a trail camera. He has not changed his appearance, but also that he has obtained a backpack and a hooded sweatshirt. Reporter according to police, there have bee five credible sightings within their initial search area. They quickly expanded the perimeter in an effort to contain the fugitive while using a recording of his mothers voice around the search radius telling him to turn himself in he escaped from prison thursday, a week after being handed a life sentence for brutally killing his exgirlfriend. Please secure homes, out buildings and vehicles cavalcante has obtained clothing and other supplies and we want to minimize any opportunities for him to obtain anything more. Reporter local residents staying vigilant as life is now on pause. Were watching to see if school will be canceled. Practices have been canceled it would be good if they caught this escaped prisoner sooner rather than later. We have life to get back to. Reporter as knowledge sir Emergency Services send messages like this if you see him, do not approach and call 911 immediately. He is convicted of homicide and presumed extremely dangerous. Reporter questions about how he escaped in the first place, especially following the escape of another inmate earlier this year but for now, Officials Say they officers from local, sta are channelling all efforts on cavalcante our main focus right now is to catch this fugitive. Reporter there is still a major Police Presence here the fbi and u. S. Customs on the ground really tells you the scope of this thing and how bad they want this killer caught. Thank you very much to washington now where the senates top republican, Mitch Mcconnell, has returned to work while still facing questions about his health the republic freezing on camera at two Public Events recently, the latest just last week. Garrett haake has more on this. Good morning reporter good morning. Mcconnell appears eager to move on from this story, only briefing mentioning last weeks incident on his last speech on the hill in a new letter, the capitols physician says hes ruled out a seizure or a stroke without identifying the underlying cause for these incidents, but still many telling us theyre confident hes still up to the job of party leader. This morning republican leader Mitch Mcconnell back in the u. S. Senate, closely watched as he returned to the senate floor tuesday. Mcconnell choosing to focus on policy, making only a passing mention of growing concerns over his health. Now, one particular moment of my time back home has received its fair share of attention in the press over the past week but i assure you august was a busy and productive month for me and my Staff Reporter the comments come after a Second Health scare last week left him momentarily frozen at a Kentucky News conference. Did you hear the question, senator . Reporter the 81yearold lawmaker unresponsive for more than 30 seconds. Eventually led away by staff. Im sorry, yall. Were going to need a minute. Good bipartisan cooperation and a string of reporter mcconnell suffered a concussion and a broken rib in a fall in march. On tuesday, his Office Released a letter from the capitols attending physician noting his recovery and stating that an mri, consultations with neurologists and tests revealed no evidence of a disorder like parkinsons. Mcconnells staff suggesting it was the result of lightheadedness and possibly dehydration. This as lawmakers in both parties largely rallied around mcconnell and his ability to continue as the gops leader in the senate. It appears to me these are still pretty isolated incidents. Reporter what is your latest reaction to this health care from Mitch Mcconnell and are you confident he can still do the job . We may expect he can check out for 80 seconds a day but the other seconds of the day he does a good job. Reporter mcconnell ignored questions on his health all day yesterday. But he is expected to address the issue behind closed doors with republican senators today and at his regular Weekly News Conference afterwards. Garrett, thank you. Much more to get to this morning as we say good morning to craig. Good morning to you as well covid back in the headlines this morning. The nation experiencing a rise in cases now that rise highlighted by first lady, jill bidens, diagnosis this week. Nbcs tom costello joins us with where things stand with the virus and a possible look ahead to boosters this fall. Reporter we have seen a slight uptick in hospitalizations and deaths, but the reality is we are in a much different place than a year ago when the numbers were a lot higher still, Health Experts say that is not a concern to dismiss the virus. It continues to mutate it continues to pose health risks. From the white house to concert and sports arenas, even daytime tv, a reminder that covid19 has not gone away. As Health Experts say a late summer wave of cases is leading to an uptick in hospitalizations, though still well below pandemic peaks. We havent reached a predictable pattern with the virus. Were seeing incredible mutations and changes in the virus. Among those now in their second round with the virus, first lady dr. Jill biden, who is experiencing mild symptoms, were told, and staying in delaware. Reporter President Biden tested negative last night and tested negative again today.

Even metallica forced to reschedule a show in arizona, all disruptions from a virus that most experts wont leave us a anytime soon, if ever. Does this underscore how persistent covid is . It is a novel virus thats trying to survive. Reporter existing at home tests can detect new variants. And the cdc could vote as early as next week to approve new boosters, which experts say everyone should consider, even if you are young and healthy the trick is to just stay ahead of it and to keep rates low enough that we can enjoy our lives without being bothered by it all the time. Reporter okay. One thing doctors are still actively studying and concerned about, the effects of long covid. People that have had covid for a long time. Experts say sometimes people arent getting diagnosed properly and theyre still trying to determine the guidance for what to do if you experience it craig, one of my best friends from denver has had it now for three and a half years it is utterly debilitating our thoughts go out to those folks.

Hoda had to leave early because it is the first day of school but rest assured she will be back in time for that tomorrow. We have a lot to get to. We told you the convicted double murderer is now seeking a new trial. This morning his legal team is asking for a federal investigation claiming the jury was improperly influenced by the court clerk. We will talk to murdaughs attorneys in a moment. But first kathy park has new details. Kathy, good morning to you. Reporter hey, craig. Good morning to you. Yeah this is perhaps the most highprofile murder trials in recent history as you mentioned, it ended with a conviction and murdaugh is serving two life sentences for the brutal murders of his wife and son. Now according to his attorneys, their client is in disbelief over this latest twist this morning, an explosive new legal twist in the case of convicted killer Alex Murdaugh his attorneys are demanding a new trial, accusing the clerk of court of jury tampering. We never considered the likelihood as reported to us by the jurors that the clerk of court would go into th sanctity of the jury room before he testified and tell the jurors dont be fooled by his testimony. Reporter in sworn affidavits from two jurors, murdaughs attorneys detailed multiple instances of what they say was Improper Conduct by clerk of court rebecca hill hill allegedly told jurors, yall are going to hear something that will throw you all off. Dont let this distract you or mislead you. Hill seen outside the courthouse after the verdict, acknowledged by prosecutors for her work. I want to thank the clerk of Court Becky Hill and her entire time. Reporter the defenses motion also alleges sh asked jurors for their opinions, pressured them to make a quick verdict. Jury tampering by a clerk of the court would be something very rare and very dramatic. Reporter shortly after the trial, three of the jurors appearing on today telling savannah and craig they didnt believe murdaughs testimony was genuine. He knows when to turn it on and off. I think we were able to read right through that reporter the book called behind the doors of justice the murdaugh murders. Nbc news reached out to hill for comment but have not heard back. She told court tv they were untrue in march, murdaugh was found guilty of murdering his wife and son in 2021, and he received two consecutive life sentences according to his lawyers, he still maintains his innocence. Now, we reached out to those three jurors who appeared on today. Two declined to comment. One we have not yet heard back from meanwhile, we should also note the attorney general of South Carolina has reviewed this motion and says that he will comment at an appropriate time craig . All right kathy park there kathy, thank you we are joined by the attorneys who lead Alex Murdaughs defense Team Good Morning to both of you. Thanks for your time this morning. Good morning. You have affidavits you have interviews from three jurors and one dismissed juror and in one of the affidavits here, this is juror 630, juror 630 says, quote, according to the affidavit, i had questions about mr. Murdaughs guilt voted guilty because i felt pressured by the other jurors. The juror there did not say he felt pressured by becky hill so are you accusing her of actually influencing the verdic outside influence in the sanitity of the jury room, it is improper. Or just acting improperly . Craig, anytime there is outside influence in the sanctity of the jury room, it is improper and the legal question is not whether the outcome of the trial would have been different. The question is whether the information provided to the jury outside the confines of the courtroom is prejudicial i mean, you can never go back and rewind the clock or put the toothpaste back in the tube. So thats a game that we cant play but what we do know is the conduct that the jurors have reported to us is highly improper and, frankly, illegal. Though, but to get this new trial, you are going to have to prove that whatever becky did or said would have had some Material Impact on the verdict, correct . Wrong thats weve got to show she acted improperly if Improper Conduct occurred, there is a presumption that we get a new trial. I mean, it is the United States supreme court, the court of appeals in South Carolina have all ruled on this issue i got to say, we couldnt find a single case where the clerk of court did Something Like this, but we did find a couple cases where bailiffs did this. There are cases where Court Officials say things, do things that indicate they have an opinion or that they interfere in the dissemination of information to the jury outside the courtroom. So, no, we dont have to show it would have made a material difference. This motion will have to be heard by the same trial judge who oversaw the case, judge newman are you planning on asking for a new judge . Well, i mean, first of all, the court of appeals has to rule it goes back secondly, i think judge newman realizes based on his filings, and hes a witness so well cross that bridge when we get to it but i think judge newman is going to carefully examine i have the greatest respect for him, and i think he will examine the pleadings and the issues and macon collude, as we have, that hes going to be a witness in this process. Why would he be a witness well, there is at least two instance where one instance where clearly it was reported to him that the clerk had a conversation with a juror outside of the confines of the jury room. Not under his direction. And he says, as we say in the filings, he found that unsettling the question is did he do did he follow it up with questions if not, why not . What happened there . And there is another instance involving information concerning some facebook posts that apparently were made up. And we need to ask him about that jim, the reality is a couple weeks Alex Murdaugh is set to plead guilty reportedly to a slew of federal financial crimes there is still some outstanding state crimes as well he is likely going to spend the rest of his life in prison, regardless of the outcome here what do you say to someone who might suggest you guys are just trying to sew the seeds of doubt, perhaps change Public Perception that Alex Murdaugh did, in fact, kill his wife and son. Look, craig, we strongly believe he has not killed his wife and son he has admitted readily that h engaged in financial fraud, financial misconduct to support an opoid addiction now, hes ready to accept the punishment for that. Is that life in prison we dont think so. We think its substantially less than that. But as his son has said, and we have all said, a fraudulent lawyer does not equate to a murderer and he did not murder his wife and son. Thank you both for your time this morning, gentlemen. Thank you. Thank you interesting to see how this turns out. Pretty Extraordinary Development there in South Carolina. Coming up, new details on the passing of bob barker.

The events she attended, the causes she supported, even the clothes she wore captured the worlds attention. This morning one of her most talked about fashion choices is here in the studio there it is. Its the sheep sweater it is featured in sothebys iconic fashion sale. Princess diana was a global phenomenal her fairy tale wedding to Prince Charles was watched by 750 Million People it began a legacy not only of the glitz and glamour of royal life but uses her star power to make a difference in aids and land mines in angola she had a profound impact on parents worldwide, so often present for her sons Prince William and prince harry, even while juggling royal duties. In terms of her legacy, it is shining as bright as ever across the nation top of the list remains the fact that she used her platform to help those less fortunate than she was. And dianas fashion choices are still talked about today, too. She made headlines dancing with John Travolta at the white house. She went against royal tradition, foregoing gloves to shake hands with the public. And of course, that revenge dress. In many ways, Princess Diana was the original influencer. She really steered fashion with the choices she made one of Princess Dianas most iconic looks, the black sheep sweater. Then lady diana wore the sweater to a polo match in 1981, instantly causing a frenzy, transforming the small knit shop warm and wonderful into a global brand. Everything she wore was analyzed people were trying to see hidden messages in all her clothes. It was decided that she loved this sweater because the black sheep, perhaps, represented her, that she wasnt following the herd when it came to her fashion choices or even other choices she was making, that she was prepared to be a bit different. The sweater was featured in the crown. They reissued the sweater to high demand. More than 25 years after her death, Princess Dianas effortless style and impactful life continued to inspire. As we mentioned, the black sheep sweater is featured in sothebys icon sale. Frank everett is the vice chairman of sothebys. Good to see you. Good morning. I just wanted to touch this so bad, but i cant snag the sweater. One little, right there thats the tear. My paper was in the way, okay so were allowed the touch the tear the tear is at the heart of the story. Can you give me the backstory and how this sweater was rediscovered yes the sweater has been tucked away in an attic for more than 40 years. This was the original sweater she wore in 1981. Made by warm and wonderful in england. And diana on the sweater, not sure how she acquired it did she buy it herself was it a gift . Not sure however, she wore it in 1981 in the picture you see in a polo match. She tore the sweater and sent it back to the ladies she asked for either a repair or a replacement. Then she got the replacement sweater, wore it again in 1983. Exactly. Now, meanwhile, turns out this sweater is sitting in the basement or where was it . At the warm and wonderful shop it was literally in their at attic sitting in a box they just discovered it we love a discovery story in the auction world. Yes. Apparently when the letter came from the palace requesting a new one, they said either a repair or a replacement. They decided to knit her a replacement. There are some design differences in the one she wore. Somebody threw it in a box and it went into the attic 40 years later, now, here it is at sothebys. It is just incredible you guys did all the forensics or however you identify a sweater. This is the original sweater. This is the original sweater. We did extensive photo matching and used a third party source. Now, how much would Something Like this go for, do you think well, the estimate online right now, the online bidding is open the auction estimate was 50,000 to 80,000 its already at 70,000. Going up. Going up and it wont sell until the 14th closing bidding on the 14th. It also comes for the low, low price of whatever, you get two letters. You get the first letter written by oliver everett. And the second one was a thank you note. People buy these kinds of things do they display them or wear them i dont know this will be worn maybe it will be worn on a special occasion i would imagine it would be displayed by a collector that loved diana or an institution. I wouldnt be surprised to see it go to a museum. Thank, good to see you here you can see this sweater yourself its on display at sothebys. Thats here in new york starting tomorrow you can come. Open to the public tomorrow morning. How fun i love it. All right, over to you, al in 40 years, ill be bidding on craig melvins jogging suit very, very exciting.
