I cant live in my car. Norah and a sight that was out of this world. The stunning pictures of last nights supermoon. Good evening to our viewers in the west, and thank you for joining us on this wednesday night. We are now less than 24 hours away from unprecedented moment in american history, where a former president returns here to the Nations Capital to make his first appearance on charges of going after the bedrock Of American Democracy, a peaceful transfer of power. Donald trump is no stranger to the inside of a courthouse. This is his third indictment. These are the first charges to stem from actions trump allegedly took while in office, all in an attempt, according to the Special Counsel, to remain in power. The Special Counsel jack smith called the january 6th attack an assault on the seat Of American Democracy that was fueled by lies. Trumps lawyers today claim the charges violate the former president s First Amendment rights, but central to the indictment are contemporaneous notes from former Vice President mike pence. And today, he lashed out at his former boss, saying trump was surrounded by crackpot lawyers. We have a team of Coverage Tonight and cbss robert costa is here to start us off. Good evening, robert. Reporter good evening, norah. Ahead of trumps arrival in washington tomorrow, his lawyers are moving fast to build a defense. His former Vice President is emerging as both a key witness and a key critic, and Security Officials are already on edge. Former President Donald Trump spent the Morning Playing Golf at his club in bedminster, new jersey, as he and his lawyers brace for a highstakes appearance in federal court. Charging donald j. Trump with conspiring to defraud the united states. Reporter the sweeping indictment alleges trump used dishonesty, fraud, and deceit to try to overturn the legitimate results of the 2020 election by organizing slates of fraudulent electors in seven states that he lost, pushing officials like the georgia secretary of state. Look, brad, i have to get, i have to find 12,000 votes. Reporter and pressuring thenVice President mike pence to refuse to certify the election results. Because if mike pence does the right thing, we win the election. Reporter sources say trumps lawyers plan to argue that trumps false claims about the election were not criminal in that his efforts were driven by the advice of outside attorneys, like sidney powell, rudy giuliani, and john eastman, among others. Cbs news has learned that they are likely some of the six unindicted coconspirators referenced in the indictment. This is the first time that political speech has been criminalized in the history of the united states. Its the first time where a current president is using the criminal process to attack a former president on policy issues. We are in a constitutional abyss right now. Reporter former federal prosecutor harry litman says it is not about speech. The indictment carefully carves aside his freespeech rights and the speech on the ellipse, that is not a big part of the indictment. What is a part of the indictment are agreements to do unlawful things. Reporter meanwhile, security is being tightened at the federal courthouse in washington. Cbss Scott Macfarlane is there. Reporter the former president expected to arrive here with his Secret Service escort and a heavy Police Presence to enter a not guilty plea and then learn about any release conditions and restrictions in his case. Then the case shifts to federal judge tanya chutkan, a 2014 appointee of thenpresident obama. She has been strident in her denunciations of the january 6th attack. In hearings of january 6th riot defendants, she has called that day horrifying and a violent attempt to overthrow the government. Reporter today, on the campaign trail, pence sharply criticized trumps alleged conduct. Anyone who puts themself over the constitution should never be president of united states. Reporter others took on the justice system. A d. C. Jury would indict a ham sandwich and convict a ham sandwich if it was a republican ham sandwich. Reporter sources tell cbs news that trumps rivals see the upcoming Republican Debate as a chance for a breakthrough, but after long saying he would likely skip it, trump is now considering his options, and he dined last night with fox news executives, who urged him to show up. Norah on the very night he was indicted. Robert costa, thank you. Cbs news will have live coverage of former President Donald Trumps arraignment tomorrow afternoon. The gunman responsible for killing 11 worshipers at The Tree Of Life synagogue in pittsburgh in 2018, will be sentenced to death. Cbss Shanelle Kaul reports a federal jury today unanimously recommended 50yearold Robert Bowers be put to death for carrying out the deadliest antisemitic attack in american history. Finally, justice has been served. Reporter inside this pittsburgh courthouse, victims families, a juror, even the judge broke down in tears as Robert Bowers learned he will be given the death penalty. Antisemitism and hate have no place in our hearts, no place in our communities, no place in our country. Reporter the gunman killed 11 worshipers and injured seven others when he opened fire inside The Tree Of Life synagogue in october 2018. Before the attack, prosecutors argued bowers spent years making antisemitic comments online. This june, he was convicted of all 63 charges against him, including federal hate crimes. Then, last month, the same jury found he was eligible for Capital Punishment. For the final verdict in this case, i feel relief. Reporter but criminal defense attorney Joe Tamburino says final justice wont be swift. Every time someone is sentenced to death, there will be automatic appeals. So i wouldnt be surprised for a case like this to wind up in the courts for ten years. Reporter and there is also the possibility a Death Sentence may never be carried out. The Biden Administration put a federal moratorium on Capital Punishment back in 2021. Bowers, meantime, will face formal sentencing tomorrow. Norah . Norah Shanelle Kaul, thank you. Well now to a deeply disturbing story out of the pacific northwest, where a man is accused of abducting and sexually assaulting a woman and then locking her up in a cell made of cinder blocks. As cbss Jonathan Vigliotti reports, the fbi is searching for more potential victims in multiple states. Reporter haunting photos of a makeshift jail cell, where a woman was held captive before escaping. The woman fought for her life, beating the doors and the walls of this cell with bloodied hands. Reporter fbi officials identified the alleged attacker as 29yearold negasi zuberi, who they say was posing as an Undercover Police officer when the abduction occurred. He sexually assaulted, handcuffed, and shackled the woman in seattle, driving more than seven hours across state lines to his home in klamath falls, oregon. Through her perseverance, she broke free and waved down a passing motorist, asking for their help to call 911. Reporter the cinder block cell was built in zuberis garage. Court documents revealed the victims purse was there and her blood was found on a fence she climbed to escape. The victims focus, actions, and her will to survive triggered a Law Enforcement response that may have actually saved many other women from a similar nightmare. Reporter those actions, and the suspects cell phone data, led police to reno, nevada, where zuberi was arrested. He was with his wife and child. We believe there may be more victims. Reporter the fbi has linked zuberi to at least four other assaults and says that there could be more. He has lived in ten states in less than seven years. Under different names, norah. Norah Jonathan Vigliotti, thank you. Well, back here in washington, there was a scare on capitol hill this afternoon after reports of a possible active shooter. Staffers were ordered to shelter in place across all three Senate Office buildings.

Reporter thousands have been bused from texas to cities across the country, part of texas republican governor greg abbotts controversial operation lone star. And new tonight, texas dps confirms troopers have begun detaining some fathers traveling with their families on trespassing charges, while children and their mothers are turned over to u. S. Border patrol. The move is reminiscent of the Trump Administration policy that separated some families for years. Back in New York City, natalia and Maksim Subbotina from russia are seeking political asylum. Have you slept . No. I cant sleep in this situation. I cant. Its not safe for me, for him. Reporter to cut down on illegal border crossings, the Biden Administration barred asylum claims from those who dont first seek refuge in other countries. But a District Judge ruled against it. Unless let the higher court intervenes, officials will need to stop that policy starting next week. Norah . Norah meg oliver, thank you. Now to flash flooding concerns.
