A judge in florence, italy reading the verdict. Knox and her former boyfriend guilty of murder in the alleged drug and sexual stabbing death of Meredith Kercher. Percent tense, 28 years in prison, highly unlikely. Shes already spent nearly four years in jail until her first c conviction was overturned. She hasnt spoken to cameras tonight. She did talk with Britains Guardian paper about what a guilty verdict would do to her. It would feel like a train wreck. They would order my arrest and the Italian Government would approach the American Government and say, extradite her. And i dont know what would happen. Knox has also spoken with chris cuomo about the possibility of going back to prison. Could you do more time . Could you handle it . Could you handle it . Im having to handle things. I have not been given a choice, and i think people sort of underestimate what that means and what effect that has had on me and my life. I have no choice but to face this, and i constantly ask myself why, why me . I have no choice but to confront this. And i dont know. Im afraid, im so afraid. If you go back, you may not wind upcoming back to america for a very long time. Yeah. And im afraid of that. Well, in her statement tonight, she says shes indeed frightened about what would come next, even if she never sets foot in italy again. In a moment, well have more on the investigation that landed her in prison and serious question about the evidence or lack of said evidence against her. First, Erin Mclaughlin in florida. Explain what happened today in court. The verdict came far later than expected and talk about who this court is compared to other courts. Reporter hi, anderson. We didnt really know what to expect from this court today going into this verdict. In the end, it took six jurors and two judges almost 12 hours to reach this decision when the presiding judge read the verdict out before a very packed courthouse, it was met with silence. Amanda knoxs lawyer describing to cnn the moment he had to call his client in seattle and inform her that once again she had been convicted of Meredith Kerchers death. Amanda knox was understandably shocked, anderson. So she can appeal, though. This is not it. Reporter she can absolutely appeal this decision. In fact, the defense has already said they are planning on doing that. Theyll appeal the decision to italys Supreme Court. But keep in mind, that is the same Supreme Court that overturned the 2011 acquittal decision. Basically in the prosecutors words, raising it to the ground, saying it was full of contradictions and deficiencies, send thing trial back to florence, urging them to take a comprehensive look at all of the evidence. So at the moment, things really arent looking too good for amanda knox. Thatprocess, anderson, could take months. Appreciate the update. Amanda knox called it the product of a prejudice and narrow minded investigation. Drew griffin spent hours talking to the original lead prosecutor. Its a rare opportunity to decide for yourself whether he was a crusader for justice, talking about the prosecutor, or a man obsessed. Reporter amanda knox in this statement told police she was in the house the night of the murder and saw her boss, nightclub owner and Meredith Kercher go into merediths room and she heard screams. Amandas statement adds, i am very confused. I imagined what could have happened. Police apparently didnt bother to check the facts about him. They immediately arrested amanda knox, her boyfriend and patrick for the murder of Meredith Kercher. Police announcing to the public, case solved. Julianna medini admitted to us, without evidence, he knew almost the moment he arrived and laid eyes on amanda knox and raphael they were involved in the murder. Prior to the forensic investigation, prior to everything really, your intuition or your detective knowledge led you to amanda knox and raphael . Translator after the first few weeks, we were convinced because of the behavior of the two people and especially amanda, that they were both involved in the crime. Reporter but almost immediately after the arrests, manini had a problem. The third suspect, patrick, had an airtight alibi. He was in his crowded bar that night. He could not have been involved. Then the actual forensic tests came back. When i looked at it, i was horrified. Reporter a forensic biologist at Boise State University and director of idahos innocence project. He said investigators did a good job processing the crime scene, collected excellent evidence, but clung to shakier evidence that proved their theory. A classic error, he says, a prosecutor who trusted his gut feeling instead of the science that at that time was pointing to another suspect. The other suspect was a man named rudy, who was convicted and sent to prison. He implicated knox and the others, after which his sentence was reduced. Joining us is amanda knoxs attorney. Ted, you saw this verdict as obviously a historic miscarriage of justice. What happens now . A lot of people are talking about her being extradited, but theres a lot of steps before any of that. Theres an appeal, correct . Thats correct. Lets understand, some things havent changed despite this unwelcomed verdict. She was previously found innocent by another Appellate Court jury, not just not guilty, but actually found innocent. And that is why, when we think about that, and we realize there was no evidence back then and theres no different evidence today, why this is such a horrific miscarriage of justice, of really historic proportions. In fact, its somewhat incomprehensible to understand how there can be a difference, how can there be a verdict other than what happened before . Why do you think they made this decision, is it politics, face saving . What do you think . Look, the last Appellate Court looked at all the evidence, they debunked the two key pieces of evidence, purportedly thought to be persuasive by the prosecution. They were eviscerated, evaporated, held to be without any probative value and there was nothing else really in the case. So we left it to a discerning eye. But i can tell you, a careful review of the evidence, you have to ask yourself, how is it possible that an Appellate Court jury found her innocent and now another jury of equal stature has reviewed the evidence again and theres no new or different or favorable evidence . In fact, now the knife was retested and the prosecution was basically throwing a hail mary pass, hoping that they would find merediths profile on the blade. In fact, it was determined that she absolutely was not on the blade. There was a finding that amanda knox was on the knife, but that was already the case and she had used that knife. So theres nothing unusual or significant about it. It simply remains no evidence. Let me bring in greg. Greg, you went to italy to aid the defense team. You looked at the evidence. Is there any doubt in your mind that amanda knox did not commit this crime . No, there is never any doubt about this case. We disputed the dna evidence at the very beginning that was used to convict her. What did they get wrong about the dna evidence . Well, what they did was, they went way below where we look, so theres a level at which we set our instruments for sensitivity. And you dont want to go below that, because theres chemicals or small bits of transfer that can occur. Thats one of the reasons. If you want to go that far down, you have to demonstrate through a validation process that you can. So the normal level for those instruments was at a level called 200 relative. They took them down far below that. The fbi wouldnt even look at anything below 200 at that time to incriminate anybody. My lab would maybe go to 150. There was no dna at that level. So we disputed it. The Appellate Court wisely said were not going to hear from defense experts or prosecution experts and the judge appointed two experts out of rome, they independently tested the dna evidence. And they agreed with the defense. Thats why she was freed. So science freed her. You know, anderson ted, what happened now . Where do you go now . Do you appeal . Well, yes. Theres certainly an appeal. When you look at the case, and i know youre familiar with the case, and this was a horrific, bloody murder. And if amanda had participated in any way, part of herself would have been left in the room or on the person of Meredith Kercher. No hair, fibers, sweat, dna, saliva of any sort of amanda knox was found in that room. And you simply cant remove what you cant see. That in and of itself is absolutely unassailable, unquestioned evidence that shows she could not have been involved. That has never changed. Ted, what does it mean for amanda knox in terms of obviously shes not going to travel to italy, that would not be wise. What about if she traveled outside of the United States, is that a concern . Well, you know, i know people ask a question ant extradition. But its really not in play right now, because first of all, she has another appeal to the Supreme Court of italy. In italy, under their system, youre still actually presumed innocent until that third stage. So they wouldnt request extra zmigs it would be premature. The prosecution asked for an arrest warrant today, it was rejected. The court recognized shes lawfully in the United States. She was never required to attend these proceedings. So shes done everything lawful. Everything correct. Shes abiding by all court orders, and her appearance then was not necessary, and its not in issue today. If it ever becomes an issue, you can rest assured there are very substantial defenses that can be interposed. But i think we shouldnt get ahead of ourself. The bottom line is, there is no evidence. There was no evidence, and there never will be any evidence, and thats why this is such a gross miscarriage of justice. Ted simon, glad to have you on. Greg in fact, they retested go ahead, greg. We in fact have new evidence, which is this test reported just in november, ordered by the court, which confirms once again that the evidence we disputed, the dna was not reliable. Theres no evidence of the victim on the knife. Thats new, and that came out in november. For the court to ignore that and to increase her sentence when rudy dagay, whose dna is in the victims body, his hand prints are there, they lowered his sentence. I appreciate you guys being on. Thank you. Follow me on twitter. Let me know what you think about this case. Up next, getting one of americas biggest cities rolling again, well take you out on the streets and show you how the Public Servant who has taken responsibility for one of the biggest traffic jams in atlanta.

Atlanta area schools will be closed again tomorrow, in part because theyre still towing buses back to garages and cleaning facilities that were used as makeshift dormitories. Tow trucks spent the day dealing with more than 2,000 private cars that were abandoned during the storm. Now, in our keeping them honest reporting last night, we highlighted how Public Officials failed to take the action or issue the full throated warning that could have prevented a good deal of the misery. Keeping them honest is about holding Public Servants accountable. All too rarely, keeping them honest means calling attention to publicer is vents who get it right by accepting responsibility. Today, georgias governor first said it was unexpected. Then he tried to suggest the forecasting was unclear. I did not mean to imply we didnt know something was coming. What i was referring to was, the National Weather service had their modeling showing that the city of atlanta would not be the primary area where the storm would hit. Which came out 12 full hours st, before it happened was plain to see. So today he was singing a different tune. I want to start out by apologizing to those individuals who were stranded on our roadways, to those parents whose children were unable to return home in a timely fashion. I accept responsibility for the fact that we did not make preparation early enough to avoid these consequences. Im not going to look for a scapegoat. Im the governor. The buck stops with me. I accept the responsibility for it. I accept responsibility for it. Thats what he said. Its amazing when you think about how rarely we hear politicians say that. Thousands of cars are still abandoned around the atlanta area. We have more on that now from gary tuchman. Reporter Army National guard humvees in the streets and highways in an around atlanta. Its emergency duty, as the military and Police Shuttle people back to the hundreds of cars that remain abandoned on roadways after the snow and isles of tuesday. What kind of vehicle was it . It was a 2008 grand prix. Its on windy ridge. Do you know if its still there or not . Im not sure. It was yesterday. Theyre going to put you in a humvee and take you out it to. Reporter many people have retrieved their cars on the road. Others have not because many roadways remain icy. It was ice. My car was sliding backwards, and it just would not go. Reporter she normally has a 40minute ride from work to home. She spent 20 hours in her car. Its a red altima up the hill on the left. Reporter what made this debacle even worse is this is a very hilly region. There are many abandoned cars. The reason . Its very steep and people were afraid they would end up in a kref else, like this one. And this is the street just west of atlanta where her car was. But her saga wasnt over yet. The battery was dead. It wont start. Reporter but a jumpstart is part of the deal, too. And it came quickly. As she let her engine warm up and prepared to go home, she told us what it was like trying to sleep in her car, afraid to abandon it in the middle of the night. Afraid of keeping the heat on. I was scared. I would turn my car on for five minutes and turn it off and snuggle closely with my blankets until i felt cold again and then start it up again. Reporter like many, she said shell try to avoid driving when snow is in the forecast. But shes driving now, home to her 5yearold son. Were happy for her. Gary joins us now. Are there still a lot of abandoned vehicles on the road right now . Reporter theres still a lot of vehicles on the highways around atlanta, anderson. Theres still icy patches on the road and a lot of people are concerned about leaving their homes. Because of that, you can see theres lots of traffic and people who have come out. Because of the cars on the shoulders and in some cases lanes, theres a lot of danger that these people can hit those cars. So because of that, 9 00 eastern time, state police are going to start towing all the cars that remain on the highways. But the good news for the people that have their cars towed is the Atlanta Police say when you recover your car, you will not have to pay a dime for it. It will be free. Thats good news. My next guest may say he was just doing his job. Dont believe it for just a minute. He was doing a lot more than that. He walked nearly six miles in the cold wearing scrubs, a wind breaker and a pair of crocks to get your next procedure. Hes in the Brookwood Medical Center in birmingham, alabama Tuesday Morning when he needed to perform emergency brain surgery at another local hospital. Driving was impossible. He set off on foot, did the surgery, saved a life and joins us tonight with this story. Doctor, Tuesday Morning you were trying to get to the hospital to perform energy brain surgery. The snowstorm made it impossible to get there. What happened next i left my car on the side of the driveway. Walked down a big hill and started walking. How far away from the hospital were you . Approximately anywhere between six or eight miles. You make it sound like it was an easy walk. Six to eight miles, its cold out, windy, hilly terrain. Were you dressed warmly . No, i had my scrubs on and slipon shoes is, but i had a jacket. Wait, you had slipon shoes and scrubs . Yeah. Thats pretty incredible. Theres not a lot of people i know that would walk six to eight miles in slipon shoes and scrubs through a snowstorm like this. How long did it take for you to get there . Probably under two hours. You must have been freezing . No, no. Actually, traffic was just stopped. There was no place to go. At one point in time there was an ambulance just sitting on lake shore drive. I knocked on the window and got in there and warmed up a little bit. Then just kept on walking. Can you be my doctor . This is amazing to me. You made it in do you need brain surgery . Hopefully not. If i do, i will certainly call on you. You made it on time to the hospital to perform surgery, yes . Yeah, we were in contact the whole time, texting, looking at cat scans, getting the patient prepared. So when i got there, the patient was ready to go. I talked to the family, took him to surgery and battled a demon there for a while. But it all worked out okay. I understand youve been in the hospital since the snowstorm hit, and basically the hospital is so short staffed. How are you holding up . Everyone is doing the same thing. Everyone is pitching in. The nurses are staying overnight. Youve got to do what youve got to do. And the hospital staff are saying this patient would have most likely have died if you hadnt made it there. Yeah, it was a very large hemorrhage in the brain, and the patient was losing consciousness. By the time i got to the hospital, the patient had lost consciousness. They had about a 90 chance of dying. I think theyre going to make it. Thats incredible. I know to you this is maybe just another day. But i think its an extraordinary day and i appreciate you taking the time to talk to us. Thank you. Thank you. Pretty cool. Find more on the story at cnn. Com. Just ahead, u. S.

Documents that call into question this countrys commitment to some of its military veterans. As many as 82 vets across the country are dead, dying or suffering serious injuries because they were denied care at v. A. Hospitals. Despite the v. A. s owned a vision, its unclear whether anyone responsible has been fired or even admonished. Drew griffin has been covering the lack of care at some v. A. Hospitals for the past year. Tonight, this keeping them honest report is his. Reporter u. S. Veterans are dying because of delays in diagnosis and treatment at v. A. Hospitals. This internal v. A. Document obtained exclusively by cnn says that at least 19 veterans have died because of delays in simple medical screenings, like colonoscopies. And the document also shows the number of vets adversely affected could be much larger. It shows at least 82 vets suffered serious injuries as a result of delays in medical care. Its not clear how many are still alive. In the South Carolina and georgia region alone, ten veterans are dead and 29 families have been notified their loved ones had serious adverse events, according to the v. A. , because of delayed care. I just try to live every day like its my last day. Reporter barry cotes, a 44yearold gulf war vet, waited a year to get a kol on os ka pi, while his v. A. Doctors were telling him he had hemorrhoids. When he underwent the procedure, he was diagnosed with stage four cancer, spreading to his lungs and liver. And hes hardly alone. As cnn has previously reported, as many as 7,000 veterans were on a backlog list waiting too long for colonoscopies. At just two v. A. Facilities in columbia, South Carolina and augusta, georgia. After cnns detailed accounting of delayed related deaths, a Bipartisan Group of congressman visited the hospitals to demand answers. We have a duty to make sure that the veterans who have served here get the best health care possible. And it is very obvious that for too long and for too many folks that hasnt happened. Reporter the v. A. Says the backlog at these two hospitals has been solved. But that is not a good enough explanation for the chair of the House Veterans Affairs committee. We want to know why, and we want to know who made the decisions. Reporter congressman jeff miller says the v. A. From the top down has consistently ignored his committees requests to find out who is responsible. And despite the delays in care which have led to deaths and serious injuries, miller says not a Single Person has been fired or even demoted. And in fact, some of those responsible may have gotten bonuses. And nobody was held accountable. Thats why weve asked the question again today, with members of the South Carolina delegation and members of the georgia delegation, tell us exactly who was disciplined and now. Reporter cnn has made repeated requests for interviews with top officials at the v. A. , including the president s appointed head of the veterans administration. A repeated requests denied or ignored. No veteran should have to fill out a 23page claim to get care or wait months, even years to get an appointment at the virginia. Reporter in august 2007, candidate barack obama gave this Campaign Speech to veterans. Specifically addressing weight lists, denied care and poor treatment of vets. He promised his administration would be different. When we fail to keep faith with our veterans, the bond between our nation and our nations heroes becomes frayed. When a veteran is denied care, were all dishonored. Reporter for barry cotes and other vets who have had to wait for procedures, the speech is an empty promise. How many more lives are we going to lose from this . Reporter his now fighting for his life, and so far no one at the v. A. Can explain why. Drew, youve reached out to the v. A. They just didnt want to talk about it, right . Reporter weve been reporting on this for the last year. The only person at the v. A. Who has spoken to us is the director of that augusta v. A. He did apologize for the delays. As far as the National Leadership in washington, weve repeatedly asked to speak to the director and the press office has told it there wont be an interview. We want to know who is responsible and what has happened to them . It is amazing that no one will talk. Nothings that happened to them. No one has been held accountable, sfligt reporter to our knowledge, not a Single Person has been fired for this. Pretty unbelievable.

It was different than the other times i tried to quit. [ male announcer ] along with support, Chantix Varenicline is proven to help people quit smoking. Its a nonnicotine pill. Chantix reduced my urge to smoke. That helped me quit smoking. [ male announcer ] some people had changes in behavior, thinking, or mood, hostility, agitation, depressed mood, and suicidal thoughts or actions while taking or after stopping chantix. If you notice any of these, stop chantix, and call your doctor right away. Tell your doctor about any history of mentalhealth problems, which could get worse while taking chantix. Dont take chantix if youve had a serious allergic or skin reaction to it. If you develop these, stop chantix and see your doctor right away, as some can be lifethreatening.

He tested positive for marijuana, xanax and alcohol. The pop star allegedly told police he had been smoking pot all night and posted bond the next day, waved to crowds. A week later, just yesterday he turned himself in to a Toronto Police station for assault. In california, hes under investigation for throwing eggs at his neighbors house. So what is this new information about the drugs in his system, dr. Drew pinsky joins me tonight. So what do you make of this combination that bieber allegedly now has the police recognized that he was intoxicated far beyond the alcohol measures. My concern is is that theres a recklessness with the medication. What does it do . Theyre all kind of downers, so they make you altered. The thing is, again, i dont know when you see this is a 19yearold, more money than anyone can probably imagine. Is this just what a 19yearold does, the growing pains of anybody and its just happening in the public eye or something more . Thats the big question. And i dont know. Also, didnt develop normally and has been working and earn aing money. My greatest fear for him, whether this is just a psychological or addiction problem or something else, is that hes going to get special care. When celebrities get special care youre talking about a Conrad Murray situation. You end up with a Conrad Murray situation. If he needs treatment, again, we dont know, but say this is addiction, he needs to not work and focus on treatment and get good standard care, not special care. Im all for conservative doctors that you have to go to. Thats how it works. They are good. Especially for an addict who has trouble with these things. I dont want a doctor thats going out to the disco with the patient. That is not a good idea. And for somebody with psychiatric problems, its an especially bad idea. Addicts cant have dual relationships. You cant be somebodys doctor and friend. You end up with a dead patient like our friend, michael jackson. Im sure the parents know theres trouble and gets whats going on here. When it comes to the treatment of an adult child for substances, you dont have a lot of resources. This is a kid who years ago, i remember ive interviewed his mom, his grandfather used to travel with him. It always seemed like this responsible young kid. Then all of a sudden turns 18, 19 and all this stuff starts to happen. Part of me thinks this is just, youve been working for your entire childhood essentially. This is bound to happen. Could be, could be. Or you can say 18 to 25 is the window when major psychiatric problems start to manifest. The real serious question is will he get the proper treatment or does he just need to be yanked in . The fact that hes going to toronto i think is a good sign, the fact that hes taking the been arrested for what hes done in toronto is being responsible. Dr. Drew, thanks. You bet. You can see more on the story coming up at 9 00 p. M. On hln. Up next tonight on the program, who is president obama picking in the super bowl . See what he told jake tapper. Also ahead, potentially life changing news for millions of parents and kids. Doctors may have found a way to cure peanut alieries. Thats next. [ male announcer ] a body at rest tends to stay at rest. While a body in motion tends to stay in motion. Staying active can ease arthritis symptoms. But if you have arthritis, this can be difficult. Prescription celebrex can help relieve arthritis pain and improve daily physical function so moving is easier. Because just one 200mg celebrex a day can provide 24 hour relief for many with arthritis pain. And its not a narcotic. You and your doctor should balance the benefits with the risks. All prescription nsaids, like celebrex, ibuprofen, naproxen and meloxicam have the same cardiovascular warning. They all may increase the chance of heart attack or stroke, which can lead to death. This chance increases if you have Heart Disease or risk factors such as high Blood Pressure or when nsaids are taken for long periods. Nsaids, like celebrex, increase the chance of serious skin or allergic reactions, or stomach and intestine problems, such as bleeding and ulcers, which can occur without warning and may cause death. Patients also taking aspirin and the elderly are at increased risk for stomach bleeding and ulcers. Dont take celebrex if you have bleeding in the stomach or intestine, or had an asthma attack, hives, other allergies to aspirin, nsaids or sulfonamides. Get help right away if you have swelling of the face or throat, or trouble breathing. Tell your doctor your medical history. And ask your doctor about celebrex. For a body in motion. Hes get a quick check of the headlines with susan hendricks. In an exclusive interview with cnns jake tapper, president obama said some of the nations Largest Companies have signed on to a white house plan to boost hiring of the longterm unemployed. The white house will make an announcement tomorrow. But thats not all jake asked the president about. Take a look. Im going to give you a choice. You just have to pick one. Ill give you two. Hillary versus biden, or broncos versus seahawks. You have to tell me you have to pick one and give me the winner. To find out how the president answered, watch more of the interview tomorrow morning. Attorney general eric holder says federal prosecutor also seek the Death Penalty against dzhokhar tsarnaev, the surviving Boston Marathon bombing suspect. Three people died and 250 others were injured in the attack last april. A Police Officer was killed three days later while he and his brother were still at large. New york police have arrested 18 people accused of running a highend drug and prostitution ring which targeted wealthy customers for large events, including sundays super bowl, selling them party packs of cocaine and sex. Researchers in the uk are reporting some success with treating peanut alieries. They gave 99 children increasing doses of peanut flour mixed in with the food.

At the top of the area, cnn will air the special. It was 50 years ago the beatles came to the United States. That was on february 9, 1964, setting off beatle mania in the United States. They did have a very early champion in the states, George Harrisons sister, the author of my kid brothers band, the beatles. She joins me now. So in the 1960s, when the beatles werent before they were known here in the United States, you were living here in the United States. I understand you used to try to get them radio play. How did you do that . It wasnt easy, believe me. When i found out that my kid brother was in a band, i thought, okay, lets see what we can do here. So i had most of this country in march of 63, and my mum was sending me all of the records. So i thought, okay, lets get them on the air. Did you know their music was great . My mum told me it was, and she was not one to exaggerate. Okay. I thought if she really thinks its good, it must be. So i started going on the radio stations and taking the singles with me saying this is my kid brothers band and theyre number one in england. I didnt want to say beatles because this would freak people out. So i subscribed to the cash box bill board and variety in order to learn all about the american music. Youre a good sister. Thats the way i was brought up, you know, that you care about who is in your family and do the best for them. So i started doing all this research. You see, in england its so different. If you played on the bbc, thats all you need. But in this country, back then, there were about 6,000 independent radio stations. Theres a lot more now. I said you really need to get them on a bigger label. So you were hoping if they had a big Record Company in the United States, they would get radio play. Yeah, yeah. Just by going and say thing is my kid brothers band, i got a couple of places to play but they were little. They were in germany and hamberg, performing all the time. Yeah, eight, nine hours in front of a bunch of drunken sailors. A lot of families would be concerned about and think you have to buckle down and get a real job. Oh, no. Your mom was supportive . Oh, yeah. And my dad. They were such free spirits themselves, my mum and dad. Thats why i write a lot about them in the book. If anybody had a feeling that they liked george, then its important that they know how he became the way he was. When they came to the United States and they were on the ed sullivan show, you actually were backstage. Yeah. But you werent so concerned about the kind of what this meant, you were concerned about your brother, he was sick. He had strep throat and the doctor who had seen george on the friday night, he wanted to put him in hospital. Wow. His temperature was 104, and his throat was to the point where he could hardly talk. Immediately brian said, oh, no, no, we cant let the press know theres anything wrong with him. Because he was worried that might hurt their performance. Exactly. When you hear the music, you obviously hear it in a different way than anybody else, so it must trigger all sorts of memories. It does for everybody. Everywhere i go, i am being told about how this person was impacted. I found that its been a great privilege to be part of the inner part of that beatle family. Ive loved every minute of it. Its a joy to talk to you. Thank you. Thanks a lot. Tune in at 9 00 p. M. Eastern here on cnn.

We have not gotten into the worst part of this storm yet. That is to come a little later on tonight. So obviously here at the college of charleston, theyre already having a good time. That was intrepid reporter jim cantore of the Weather Channel. He was reporting from the college of charleston and executed a perfect live shot defense, a classic knee jerk reaction. Theres the knee, then the jerk on the left. There were reports that he got kneed in the groin, but its actually the stomach. We were just walking by and we saw that he was about to start filming live. Took my chance to get on tv. He probably thought i was trying to tackle him or something, but i was just trying to run into the frame and he put up a swift knee to defend himself. You know, he got me good. I would 100 do it again. Why . Why not . This is my 15 minutes of fame. You dont get this very off. Really . Aim high. Hes right, you hardly ever get to see this kind of thing, except nearly every time someone is reporting on the weather, like this time. Were live for the next two hours, then larry king is live. We have much more coverage of hurricane ike coming up. Theres a lot of people in houston, a couple of bars are still open. Thats a guy in a chicken suit. Or like this time. No shortage of incredibly ill bite my tongue, people, coming out, dozens of people who have walked by me. To be honest, im speechless. But what were those guys thought processes . We dont exactly know. This latest one is the only time i can remember getting some insight on what makes these people tick. We had spoken to them earlier in the day. We got a photo with them and everything, and we went back again later and got on tv. And now everyone loves it. Not everyone. So let me just get this straight, college dude. He was nice enough to pose for a photo with you, and yet you felt it was okay to interrupt him at work . Yeah, that makes sense to me. His mom, im sure, loved that. She texted me this morning, like, thats a great way to get arrested. I dont think youre very funny, even though you might. Ive got to say im with mom on this one. That wasnt very funny. This is very funny. Weve been on a couple of hours getting the building cleared. Its cold out here. Some people are just out of their minds. What are you going to do . Its nuts. I mean, okay, that guy was funny. Ive actually met that guy, believe it or not. Funny. Ive actually met that guy, believe it or not. Just proves my theory. When youre out reporting live on the weather, no matter forecast, theres always a chance of meatballs on the ridiculist. Thanks for watching.
