This is a true flood emergency here. Overnight, flash flooding from alabama to North Carolina, to the florida panhandle. In pensacola, florida, one person drowned when their car was submerged in floodwaters. In mobile, alabama, an elderly woman was rescued from a flooded car. Crews waded through water to carry her to higher ground. In this neighborhood, lawns replaced by lakes. And roads turned into rivers. And you can just hear the skies roaring, as this storm just pounds the pensacola area. More than 60,000 lightning strikes hitting here in just the past hour. This is the view inside suzannes home. She and her family forced upstairs to wait out the storm. In North Carolina, this van almost completely submerged in a flooded parking lot. Other cars creeping along and stalling out.

Reporter this morning, families in alabama still digging through the rubble, from two twisters monday. Stunning before and after pictures reveal the destruction. This drone video shows whats left of an apartment complex. And amid the heartbreak, an incredible tale of heroism. 21yearold john servati, on the swim team at the university of alabama, was taking shelter in his basement with his girlfriend, when a retaining wall fell.

Were talking about two feet of rain in just one day. Two feet. Locals here tell us they have never seen anything like it. Lara . Gio, thank you. Lets get to ginger zee, shes in kimberly, alabama, just north of birmingham, in the midst of severe devastation from those tornadoes. Good morning, ginger. Good morning, lara. Here we are. This was the kimberly fire department. You see the fire hoses behind me. And if you look over here, just little remnants. It was a twostory building. Now, its nothing.

The flash flooding, i want to bring you down to the gulf, where we have the flash flood emergencies in effect and the warnings. And the watches that go from georgia, through the mid atlantic, as far north as massachusetts. This is huge deal today. Number one threat is absolutely flooding, up and down the east coast. Look at the rain totals you might be seeing. Anywhere from four to even fourplus inches in that yellow area, all the way up. D. C. , look out for that. And the potential for Severe Weather, damaging wind, and an isolated tornado cannot be ruled out. Much more coming up in the nations weather. Lara . George . Thats a big area. Okay. Ginger, thanks. Were going to get the latest on l. A. Clippers owner don sterling and the racist comments that rocked basketball. The nba commissioner has responded with force, banning sterling for life. And theres a strange rant from the women involved. Thats strange one. Ryan smith is tracking it all from los angeles. Good morning, ryan. Reporter after commissioner silvers gamechanging decision, earning him nearuniversal praise, the clippers got back to business, winning the game. And the woman at the center of the controversy, speaking out in strange fashion. Tuesday night, the l. A. Clippers got back to what they do best, playing basketball. Pulling out a win just hours after the teams owner, Donald Sterling, was handed one of the staunchest punishments in nba history for racist comments he made in a taped conversation with his alleged exgirlfriend, v. Stiviano. Dont come to my games. Dont bring black people and dont come. Reporter nba commissioner adam silver handing down the leagues verdict. I am banning mr. Sterling for life, from any association with the Clippers Organization. Reporter sterling will also be fined 2. 5 million. The league maximum. Silver is also pressuring nba team owners to force sterling to sell the clippers. A decision that 75 of those owners would have to approve. 31yearold stiviano, who denied she released the tapes, broke her silence in a bizarre rant overnight about her political ambitions and civil rights. One day, i will become president of the United States of america. And i would change the legislation and laws. Reporter earlier in the day, she was seen roller skating. Her attorney released a statement saying she was, quote, very saddened by the nba decision to ban sterling for life. And she was, quote, never wanted any harm to donald. She is devastated that this got out. Her attorney insisting that stiviano and sterling never had a romantic relationship. The Clippers Organization celebrated both their win and the decision. It was a great day for everyone. For the nba. And were happy about moving forward. Reporter miami heats lebron james showing his support on twitter. Writing, quote, thank you for protecting our beautiful and powerful league. Great leader. Fans i spoke with agreed. Do you think he made the right decision . Absolutely. My gosh. And im glad it happened right away. Reporter and so, crisis averted. In fact the golden state warriors, the team the clippers pete, were planning on walking off the court right after tipoff as a sign of protest. Since sterling got the maximum punishment, those plans were scrapped. As for sterlings wife, shelly, she was at the game last night. But she wasnt in her courtside seat. She was up in a suite, flanked by bodyguards and left after the game. George. One of the owners that will vote on the punishment. The owner of the Sacramento Kings. You have tweeted your support. Are you confident your fellow owners agree . The owners i know, george, are all colorblind. And they found this behavior was outrageous. I would be surprised if it isnt a unanimous vote. Unanimous . 290. I believe so. I would be very surprised if that was not the case. How quickly can you all act . The commissioner has shown he can act very quickly. He acted quickly, decisively and definitively. He will have a committee, perhaps, look at the matter. And make a recommendation to the whole board. Is this going to take days . Weeks . I would defer to the commissioner on that. But im very proud of the way hes acted. And he hasnt wasted any time. He came out so powerfully, as you pointed out. But are you worried about the precedent this might set . Some of your fellow owners, like mark cuban supports what the commissioner did, did raise the prospect that put actions that started out as private into play. And that could be terrible for other owners. Theres only 30 of these platforms. And its a huge privilege and honor to own an nba basketball team. And we really are just custodians. The team belongs to the fans, to the players, to the city. Im perfectly okay there being a higher standard for us owners. What about mr. Sterling right now . He hasnt responded since the commissioner came out. Before, he seemed to indicate the team was not for sale. What if he fights and takes this to court . I would say, mr. Sterling, do the right thing now. Apologize to magic johnson. Apologize to the nba, the fans, the black community, the world at large, and respect the wishes of the nba. Put the team up for sale, take some of the profits and donate them to a good cause. You worked with him as an owner. Do you think hell do that . I have belief in people. And i think that hes not going to be able to sit at the games. Hes been an owner for a long time. The team is having its best run ever. And hes not going to be able to watch that. He would be the most scorned man in the stands. So, i think this is the time for him to step up and do the right thing. The game comes out stronger . I believe the game comes out stronger. I believe that basketball is the game of the 21st century. Its a global game. And this just makes it all the better. Mr. Ranaadive, thank you very much for your time this morning. Lets go to amy with the days top stories. Good morning, everyone. We begin with a breaking story overnight, fueling new debate over the death penalty. Executions were halted in oklahoma after a lethal injection went horribly wrong and was compared to torture. Abcs senior justice correspondent, pierre thomas, is here to explain exactly what happened. Good morning, pierre. Reporter good morning, amy. Theres no delicate way to put this. The state of oklahoma was trying to execute a man and it did not go as planned. Clayton lockett was one of two inmates oklahoma had slated for execution on tuesday night. But the second man was granted a stay after locketts execution went terribly wrong. The 38yearold was brought into the death chamber. The execution began at 6 23 began, when the first drug in a deadly cocktail of three drugs, never before used in oklahoma was administered. Ten minutes later, he was declared unconscious. A few minutes later, he began convulsing. Lifting his head and chest off the gurney. Even mumbling a few times. Reporter as they administered the remaining two drugs, there was a problem with locketts vein. There was concern at that time that the drugs were not having the effects. Reporter the blinds were lowered so witnesses could not see what was happening. It was my decision to stop the execution. Reporter at approximately 7 06 p. M. , lockett died. The inmate suffered what appears to be a massive heart attack. Reporter lockett was convicted of shooting a 19yearold woman with a sawedoff shotgun and watching as accomplices buried her alive. In a statement before the execution, the family of the murder victim, stephanie newman, wrote what a wonderful person she was. They were glad the day of justice had finally come. No word on their reaction to the problems with the execution. Amy . Pierre thomas, with the latest from washington. Thank you. A federal judge had thrown out wisconsins voter i. D. Law, that would have required stateissued i. D. S at the polls. The judge ruled the law places an unfair burden on poor and minority voters. An excon near seattle is under arrest. Accused of plotting to bomb a walmart and two gas stations. The fbi says Larry Gillette wanted to use the bombings to divert police so he could go on a bank robbing spree. Undercover agents said they sold him a fake bomb. And they arrested him when he tried to set it off. Also in washington, a School Bus Driver is out of a job after veering into a ditch with dozens of children on board. She says she was trying to swat a bee at the time. But newly released video from inside that school bus captured her looking down, possibly texting. Fortunately no one was seriously injured. And a big headline about the economy. New figures show china will overtake the u. S. As the Worlds Largest economy this year, five years earlier than expected. And trouble for twitter today. The stock plummeted more than 10 overnight, since hitting a high of 75 back in december. The stock has lost half its value. Investors are worried about a lack of new users. And finally, most people have to wait years and years to get their dream job. But not for this 3yearold. Tyren johnson out of detroit. He wants to be a firefighter. You can see, look at that, he already is one. He was named honorary fire fighter for the day. Got to spray the fire hose. Tyren had a heart transplant recently. And the Makeawish Foundation arranged this special day for him. But like all fire fighters, tyren is tough. Hes recovering remarkably well from the transplant. And the fire chief has invited him back in 16 years to join the squad fulltime. He said his favorite part of the day is getting to ride home in the fire truck. What a brave little boy. So happy he was honored for his bravery. Absolutely. Pretty good with that hose too. I think hes got a career. Thank you, amy. We turn, now, to an incredible story of survival. Its a great ending to a story that had all the makings of a nightmare. A family of three set out for a short hike. But things went wrong fast. And it turned into three long nights in the wild. Reporter this morning, a South Carolina family is relieved and finally home after spending 60 hours lost in the South Carolina wilderness. I guess i did very good because i kept everybody alive for three days. Reporter 43yearold j. R. Kimbler and his two kids, 10yearold dakota and 6yearold jade, set out for a nature hike in Congaree National park saturday, when they found themselves lost in the 27,000acre park. With no food, water or supplies, kimbler sent a text for help. That was just before his cell phone died. I had to be strong for them. Thats what i kept thinking. If i start crying or freaking out, it will make it tentimes worst for them. Reporter that text set out a desperate hunt for the missing family. 80 people scouring the park. It was by foot, boat and helicopter. While they were forced to drink dirty rain water collected in puddles and even tried eating wild turkey eggs. They were finally found Tuesday Morning by a passing park ranger. I eventually got what i thought was a human voice. Reporter the family was dehydrated but okay. And kimbler able to have a sense of humor about the whole ordeal. When asked where hes headed for the next weekend adventure somewhere indoors. Next time im going to google it first.

Coming up in this half hour, a town dramatically split over the murder charges for a montana man after a home invasion. Did he lay a trap for the intruder . And why his lawyer is saying it was selfdefense. Plus, theres shocking, new details about the amanda knox murder trial. The Italian Court releasing hundreds of pages of documents, releasing a new theory about what happened with her roommate. And what amanda knox is saying. Prince harry splitting with his girlfriend of nearly two years. Is he the most eligible bachelor in the world . First, we begin with the montana homeowner charged with deliberately killing a teenager he claimed was a burglar. Prosecutors say he set a trap, fully intending to take someones life. Abcs Clayton Sandell has the story. Reporter its the controversy splitting missoula, montana. Is marcus karma an vigilante . They were at home with their 10yearold son. Just after midnight, motion sen sens and this camera on a baby monitor alerted them to an intruder in the garage. The couple was terrified because of two recent breakins. Karma told police he grabbed his shotgun and hearing threatening noises from inside the dark garage, fired hour shots. Its easy in retrospect, to secondguess what he could have done. But at that moment, he felt he had no choice. Reporter inside, a German Foreign Exchange Student and soccer player. Police say theres no evidence he was connected to any of the previous burglaries. He was an outgoing kid. Once you got to know him, he was a friend, for sure. Reporter in a twist, karma is charged with deliberate homicide because prosecutors and Police Believe the couple set a trap. In Court Documents police say, that night, the couple left their garage door wideopen, setting up that camera, with flaiger allegedly telling police, she left behind a purse, quote, so they would take it. Prosecutors also say karma, a u. S. Forest service firefighter, was heard saying days before that he had been waiting up nights to shoot some kid. My client didnt want to just kill some kid like that. That was not his intent. And he feels terrible about this. Reporter karma plans to plead not guilty. This morning, one life is gone. And another, if convicted, could face life in prison. For Good Morning America, Clayton Sandell, abc news, denver. Clayton, thank you. And dan abrams is here, putting on his legal expert hat. Lets talk about this. Is it legal to essentially set bait for a burglar . Its legal to have sensors outside your home. Its legal to have cameras. Its legal to leave your garage open and have expensive stuff in your garage. Its not legal to bait someone to your home to then try to kill them. Remember, the defense here is selfdefense. As we talked about in other cases, it has to be reasonable and necessary. Meaning, necessary, even to prevent the felony from occurring. He doesnt have to have felt he was physically in danger. He has to have felt at least it was necessary because youre talking about in his own home, to stop the felony from occurring to shoot him. And thats where its going to be tough for the defense. Reasonable and necessary. You heard this before, recently in a very highprofile case. One in minnesota, byron smith, he was found guilty using a similar defense. And the difference there was, in that case, he literally executed the second victim. In the sense that one person was coming down the stairs. Then, someone else comes down the stairs. Shoots her. And as shes dying, he walks up and shoots her under the chin. This case is a little tougher for prosecutors because the defendant is going to say, this is my garage. It was dark in my garage. I didnt know what was happening. I was in fear for my life. And thats what the jurys going to have to evaluate. Was he really in fear . Was what he did reasonable and necessary . And again, as i said in a previous case, jury selection becomes so important in this case, as to who you have on that jury because a lot of people feel really strongly when you say someone breaks into my house, what are my rights . You have to be asking those prospective jurors a lot of questions whether they can evaluate the evidence fairly. Well be watching this case. Were going to get the latest on the royal breakup. Prince harry has split from his longtime girlfriend. And lama hasan has the details from buckingham palace. Reporter good morning, george. After being together for two years, prince harry and cressida bonas are calling it quits. The worlds most eligible bachelor is back on the market. They decided to go their separate ways. Theyre both very sad. And for the immediate future, she wants to focus on her career. Reporter royal sources tell abc news, the couple are still the best of friends and the split is amicable. Cressida was his first longtime girlfriend since his split with the Longtime Love chelsy davy. The neverending speculation of an impending wedding. And cressida being a princess in waiting became too much to handle. Theres no going back when you marry into the royal family. Cressida found the idea of life in the spotlight difficult. Reporter the couple were introduced by harrys cousin, princess eugenie. The relationship first played out in private. Shortly after harrys last tour of afghanistan, harry and cressida were caught hugging on a ski vacation. Signaling to the world they were an item. Recently, the relationship grew even more serious. The two even attending events publicly together. Just last month, the couple were seen embracing at Wembley Stadium and at a rugby match. If history is any indication, this may not be the last time we see cressida. William and kate also broke up several times before they finally got engaged.

An Italian Court revealing hundreds of pages of documents why it found knox guilty. Reversing a Lower Court Decision that had thrown out her conviction. Abcs Neal Karlinsky has hr story. Reporter in a 137page court finding, the Italian Court lays out a new explanation for Meredith Kerchers murder. Saying amanda knox killed her roommate after a mounting quarrel, that may have culminated with knox stealing 300 euros from her. There is reliable evidence that multiple killers were involved, including knox and her thenboyfriend, raffaele sollecito. Theres no physical evidence whatsoever of amanda knox in the room where Meredith Kercher was killed. Reporter the court finds the crime scene was cleaned to cover up their involvement. Theres no explanation how knox could have cleaned up her own dna, while leaving behind the dna of a third man, rudy guede, who is serving time for the murder. In a statement following the ruling, knox said, i am innocent. And the recent motivation document does not and cannot change the fact of my innocence. In january, knox spoke with robin about her conviction. I really expected so much better from the italian justice system. They found me innocent before. How can they say that its guilt beyond a reasonable doubt . We heard you say you would not go willingly, amanda. They would have to catch you first and youd go kicking and screaming . Yeah. Im going to fight this until the very end. Reporter knoxs parents, who devoted their life savings to fighting their daughters case told us, they will never give in. Just took an enormous financial toll on you, as well as emotional. How are you in those regards right now . Are you able to maintain this fight . Well find a way. Reporter next up, one last appeal to italys highest court. For Good Morning America, Neal Karlinsky, abc news, seattle. Lets go to dan abrams about this. The motivation document, does it change anything . Anything new here . Not really. Its an explanation of why they ruled the way they did. Its interesting that the court seems to have a theory about exactly what happened. Very different from what we expected. And how it happened. Initially prosecutors presented this theory of a possible sex game gone wrong. Now, it seems the court is saying, we dont buy that. Were not considering that. Instead, we think this was a fight that escalated. But how they put that knife into amanda knoxs hand, i just dont know. Her dna. There were multiple assail t assailants, based on the fact there was more than one knife used, et cetera. Okay. But how do you get that knife into amanda knoxs hand, i dont know. She has one more appeal. I find it hard to believe if she is convicted again, that the United States will extradite her. The Italian Supreme Court is going to evaluate it. If they uphold it, thats when the extradition fight begins. And george stephanopoulos, being a political guy, says this is going to be partpolitical, partlegal. And theres no way politicly theyre going to extradite. The legal experts say they dont know how the u. S. Doesnt extradite. But it starts with politics, then goes to legal. And i think it will be unlikely she will be extradited. Coming up, one of lifes great mysteries solved. What is really in taco bells i dont know that its a mystery. Im not sure i want to know. But were going to talk about it. And ill go to the shark tank. Will i sink or swim . Heres a hint, im doggone prepared, either way.

We begin with another day of wild weather thats slamming the south, this time, unleashing drenching downpours and widespread flooding across florida, the panhandle, alabama, the carolinas. In pensacola, up to two feet of rain fell in the past 24 hours. We know at least one person drowned in their submerged car. Rescuers waded through rising waters to save so many others.

A couple has come forward to collect their half of the jackpot. The check written out to a trust fund they started. They had no idea they had won anything until they saw the Grocery Store they bought their ticket was on the news the next morning. And they thought, let me check that ticket. Now, theyre enjoying their lump sum payment of 115 million. It always pays to watch the news in the morning. Indeed. Good moral of the story. Pop news is coming up. But for now, were going to go back to ginger in kimberly, alabama, with the weather. This morning, flash flooding is our headline. I want to take you straight to this photo that caught my eye on twitter. This is from gulf breeze, alabama, the photo youre seeing here, a little girl in a canoe, in her home. The water up to table height. Thats what the gulf coast is dealing with this morning. Flash flood warnings throughout there. And the Severe Weather potential is still with us today. Its not as high as the last couple. But should not be ignored. All the way from washington, d. C. And charleston, west virginia, down into north florida. That includes the carolinas there. And on the west coast, it is the heat that we talked about. But also the wind. You can see wind gusts of some 50 to even 90 miles per hour. You see the red flag warnings. The fire danger is high. The relative humidity, very low. Thats the big picture. Good wednesday morning. Low. Im abc7 news meteorologist mike nicco with your bay area microclimate forecast.

Bralettes for young girls and the teenager cashing in big on that trend. And then, a mean girl milestone. Why high schools hottest clique is still making fetch happen. And amy enters the shark tank.

But jim has afib, atrial fibrillation, an irregular heartbeat not caused by a heart valve problem. That puts jim at a greater risk of stroke. For years, jims medicine tied him to a monthly trip to the clinic to get his blood tested. But now, with onceaday xarelto jims on the move. Jims doctor recommended xarelto. Like warfarin, xarelto is proven effective to reduce afibrelated stroke risk. But xarelto is the first and only onceaday prescription blood thinner for patients with afib not caused by a heart valve problem that doesnt require routine blood monitoring. So jims not tied to that monitoring routine. [ gps ] proceed to the designated route. Not today. [ male announcer ] for patients currently well managed on warfarin there is limited information on how xarelto and warfarin compare in reducing the risk of stroke. Xarelto is just one pill a day taken with the evening meal. Plus, with no known dietary restrictions, jim can eat the Healthy Foods he likes. Do not stop taking xarelto, rivaroxaban, without talking to the doctor who prescribes it as this may increase the risk of having a stroke. Get help right away if you develop any symptoms like bleeding, unusual bruising, or tingling. You may have a higher risk of bleeding if you take xarelto with aspirin products, nsaids, or blood thinners. Talk to your doctor before taking xarelto if you have abnormal bleeding. Xarelto can cause bleeding, which can be serious and rarely may lead to death. You are likely to bruise more easily on xarelto and it may take longer for bleeding to stop. Tell your doctors you are taking xarelto before any planned medical or dental procedures. Before starting xarelto, tell your doctor about any conditions such as kidney, liver, or bleeding problems. Xarelto is not for patients with artificial heart valves. Jim changed his routine. Ask your doctor about xarelto. Onceaday xarelto means no regular blood monitoring no known dietary restrictions.

Tough to top, dan. Can you do it . I dont know if i can top it. But speaking of moves, lets say, guess who popped up on latenight last night. Our own robin roberts. Hit up jimmy kimmel last night to talk about her new book, everybodys got something. Jimmy learns he helped robin in ways he probably couldnt have imagined. I have to say, my sleep pattern was a little different. I got to watch you live instead of dvr. And it was wonderful to see you. And laughter is the best medicine. Is it accurate to say that i saved your life . Yes. [ laughter ] of course. It was all jimmy. All jimmy. Thats good. We couldnt be more proud of robin. Cant wait until shes back here tomorrow. Yes. With the scoop on her trip. Whirlwind trip. Billy crystal and meg ryan reuniting nearly 25 years after the release of their classic romcom, thats apparently short for romantic comedy, when harry met sally. They were on stage celebrating rob reiner. And they discussed that legendary scene that im not allowed to talk about on morning television. But i knew lara i put it into the script. But maybe lara can. Thank you. Teeing me up. Ill have what shes having. Reiners mom delivered that line. We know what follows. We can just leave it there. Everybody out there, you know what were talking about, right . Wink, wink. Yeah. When you think burrito, you probably think beans, meat, huge tortilla. And you probably think of it being consumed by a human. Ah. What we have been missing. This culinary craftsman carefully and lovingly prepared these tiny burritos for a hamster. Apparently the little man loves them, apart from the he did complain about the cilantro. But now got any guac . Hell have to hit the hamster wheel for an extra 20 minutes today. Thats pretty good. I mean, look at that. It looks like a snake consuming a whole animal. Oh, wow. Chopped up into little pieces. Beautiful, dan. What will they think of next . Just love when you pop. Right . I love popping it. Lets move to a new trend thats burning up our heat index. Increasing numbers of girls as young as 4 years old, are professing that their parents buy them tinysized bras called bralettes. A teen noticed and is cashing in big. Designing her own line of undergarments. Paula faris has the story. Reporter lingerie can be racy. But 18yearold megan thinks young girls need a bra thats not so revealing. I was shopping for bras for my little sister, margaret. And couldnt find anything she could fit into. Reporter she founded yellowberry, a company for girls ages 11 to 15, offering them comfortable and modest options. You know, girls need to have an option. They need to have an alternative bra to buy to fit them and their growing bodies. Reporter megans startup joins the latest fashion craze for tweens, known as the bra cami or bralette. It looks a lot like a sports bra. At Mainstream Stores like zara and old navy, the bralettes are flying off of shelves. With some Stores Selling them to fit a 4yearold. This modest option is sparking debate online. One mom writing, its inappropriate for her daughter, who is 5. There will be no bralette. Her father thinks bikinis are too much for little girls. When you use the word bra, it evokes images of a sexually mature woman. And that makes us very uncomfortable. Reporter jil garcia says its nothing more than a fashion statement. And says it helps the increasing number of girls who are developing earlier, feel less insecure. A lot of the fashion is becoming off the shoulder. Or lower back, or a bigger arm hole. And i wanted to create something that gives girls a sense of comfort. Reporter a style that young girls can be comfortable with. For Good Morning America, paula faris, abc news, new york. What do you guys think . I think for the older girls, like 10 and up, i understand theres a level of discomfort when youre growing into your new body. But young ones, i dont know. I feel a little iffy on it. Its the word bra, right . It looks like a sports bra. When you call it a bra, it feels different. Thats the only issue. I think every parent makes their own decision based on how they feel about their daughter. At the end of the day, whatever makes the little girl feel comfortable. Its not lingerie. It is not. Thankfully. Coming up next in our heat index, new questions about the stars of the hit reality show, chrisley knows best. The highend living family, is now facing financial trouble. And Mara Schiavocampo is here with all of the details. Good morning, mara. Reporter good morning. Theyve been called the kardashians of the south. The show focusing on todd chrisley, his wife and their children. But a bankruptcy filing is causing people to wonder about all that wealth they display on the screen. Crisley knows best is a mix of traditional family values. You dont drop it like its hot. Reporter and a luxe georgia lifestyle. Our main home is 30,000 square feet. Reporter at the center of it all, todd chrisley, who is willing to show it off. This morning, new questions about how much of their reality shows glitz and glamour is actually real. The fact they may not appear to be who they really are, i dont think thats going to hurt ratings or keep people from watching. Reporter Court Documents show chrisley filed for bankruptcy in 2012, listing his assets at 3. 5 million, with debts at 49. 5 million. And he claimed his personal property just 70,000, including just 100 cash on hand at a property listed in florida. And while on the show, chrisley claims to have the costly closet. In a year, we probably spend 300,000, sometimes more, just on clothing. Reporter in the Court Documents, he estimates the value of his, quote, wearing apparel, at just 650, listed at that same florida address. According to radar online, that bankruptcy filing is now coming into question after the trustee handling the case accused the reality star of failing to reveal the full contents of his designer wardrobe. In a statement, chrisley says the show is, quote, an accurate representation of our life. As fun as it is to watch them spend lavishly, their personalities keep viewers from coming back. Reporter this isnt the first time a Reality Stars bankruptcy filing has raised eyebrows. Last month, Teresa Giudice and her husband, pleaded guilty to fraud charges including bankruptcy fraud. The couple will be sentenced in july. A life of luxury i have to go. They dont. Reporter some are now questioning. Now, the shows Season Finale got 1. 5 million viewers. Usa says it will return for a second season. And the family say they are excited to come back. But new questions about how real reality tv is. Exactly. Reality tv. All reality tv isnt true . Oh, no. Stop it. Dan is shocked. One of the topics in our heat index including this. A brandnew study overnight. Its all about your kids. Researchers from the university of california in san diego find that children want to feel good about doing chores and do want to pitch in. But the way to get them to do it. Weve been doing it wrong, lara. Its how you address them. Referring to them, especially the younger ones as helpers. Dont ask them to help out. Call them helpers. Then, they can kind of own it. It yields better results to getting them to pitch in with all of the things around the house. I do that, as well. Did i mention bribery . We have earned chores and certain chores you have to do. If you do your chores, you get the allowance at the end of the week. If they dont, we start deducting dollars. And thats motivating, as well. Losing money. Youre good at disciplining. We have that idea. But we dont follow. Do we call that briber or bribery . I think its earning a dollar. As working mothers i need some help. Yeah. You got to do it. Yeah. Im glad to hear that. Also in our new heat index, we move to taco bell, answering a question first posed by rival food chain, wendys, wheres the beef . We now know its in the tacos and chalupas. At least 88 . 88 is beef. Whats in the other 12 . This story, so spicy its number one on abcnews. Com. Taco bell now answering that question. Theyre posting ingredients on their website. They include oats. That sounds fine. A sugar. And they admit all of these have weird names. But theyre fdaapproved. Theyre safe. Theyre things you eat all the time. A couple others they listed, because there are quite a few. There is that 12 . A binding thing for the beef. Less is more, by the way. I want to throw that out there. The transparency is nice. People are going and know what theyre getting. Thats great for taco bell to step up and do that. People are clearly interested. Theres trashtalking going on. The other guys are saying, what have you got . What have you got . I love myself a chalupa. I do, too. That crunch wrap situation. Anyway, theres wow. Lara really likes them. I have a thought bubble. Everyone is in pink because on wednesdays we wear pink. What is that from . Mean girls. It is the tenyear anniversary, if you can believe that. And its one of the top twitter trends overnight, representing the movie with lindsay lohan, rachel mcadams, and tina fey and amy poehler. And a decade later, thats so fetch is still happening. That is one of the buzziest topics around. Mean girls was released into girl world. Lets keep the mean on the screen and out of our schools. And i think that was what was so great about the movie because it really brought up this social difficulty that so many girls face in middle school and high school. People were talking about it. And the movie really brought it to light, in an entertaining way. But its something to remember. I think we talk about it a lot because of this movie. What story apart from prince harry breaking up with his girlfriend, do you want to know more about . George clooneys engagement, of course. Come on. Brandnew pictures of the ring. George gave amal alamuddin. In a People Magazine exclusive. Clooney slipped the ring on her finger on april 22nd. Followed up with a celebratory dinner in l. A. The next day. The ring, an emerald cut diamond, estimated at over seven carats, which mr. Clooney helped design. Thats a lot of veggies in there. Elegant. I love the cut. Just saying. One more thing in the heat index this morning. Remember this picture that went viral of a woman handing dinner to what looks like a homeless man . Its actually richard gere. And she had no idea. Now, shes speaking out about her side of the story. Shes the french tourist whose kindhearted gesture captured the worlds attention. For a very you nik unique reason. I gave my doggy bag to a homeless. And the homeless is richard gere. Reporter paris native karin gombeau said she was visiting new yorks little italy last week when she saw a man sifting through the garbage. Assuming he was homeless, she gave him her leftover pizza. Having no idea that hes actually an officer and a gentleman. Hollywood megastar, richard gere. It turns out gombeau had stumbled on to the set of geres new movie, in which gere plays a homeless person. In french gombeau told us, gere asked her what she was offering him. When she said chicken barbecue pizza, he thanked her. And said god bless, never revealing his alist identity. She had no idea, until she saw the picture of her encounter in the media. I see myself on the tv. And i think what did i do . I dont believe this. Reporter gombeau, who is a fan of the movie chicago. Says her encounter with the undercover leading man proves hes in the right business. Hes a very good actor. Its amazing experience. Its crazy. Its crazy. How did she just walk on the set, too . Kind of amazing. What a great story. Thats a great new york story. Another great story coming up here. Its amys turn in the shark tank. Cant wait for that. And spiderman star, dane dehaan is here, live. Good morning. Im kristen sze. In the south bay, three people are looking for new places to live after an Early Morning house fire raced through their home. It broke out on north 8th street near downtown san jose. Firefighters had to kick in the door to get in. No one was hurt. In san leandro, three people are recovering from chemical burns after an explosion that happened last night at a homeless encampment. Investigators are trying to determine what caused the explosion. For a morning update on your commute with leyla gulen. Good news in San Francisco, the sigalert has canceled southbound along 280 coming up ocean avenue. You dont see any slowing there. Northbound traffic still pretty busy.

Temperatures today about 2 to 6 degrees warmer than yesterday. The heat peaked in many areas close to the coast she is going to the music. That slowmotion confident strut by amy robach, as she gets ready to go into the shark tank. You were abashed by all that, amy . Yes. Our audience is definitely ready. George, you went tuesday. And you know how tough it can be. Im looking forward, or so it says, to sharing my experience with you. I love your idea. And also coming up this morning, we have spiderman star, dane dehaan, here live. Hes at our twitter. And a couple boy band superstars. If you could hear how loud the cheers are outside for nick carter and jordan knight. Nick and jordan are here with a big, exclusive announcement. That whole crowd erupted. You were trying to do the news. It was distracting, to say the least. Theres a lot of fans out there. Now, were going to get to amy. Day two of gma swims with the sharks. All pitching a new product to the star entrepreneurs of shark tank. I dove in with my dadtionary. Did okay. Got a final score of 16 from the sharks. I had to work on barbara a little bit. She was not pleased with my performance. Dont worry. George, i knew i was up next. So, i was headed into a tough room, of course. And when the moment came, things got a little tougher. Meet the sharks. Mark cuban, entrepreneur, media mogul and owner of the dallas mavericks. Barbara corcoran, real estate mogul. Kevin oleary, venture capitalist and software mogul. Lori greiner, entrepreneur, queen of qvc and author of invent it, sell it, bank it. Daymond john, founder and ceo of fubu, fashion and branding mogul. Next into the shark tank, amy robach. You know me as news anchor. After the studio, my second job begins. The job of mom. Heres two of the five, eva and anna. And i have number six here. Yes. Hey, brody. And heres a little unknown fact about me. I am a clean freak. Cleans the house, like, all the time. Shes a clean freak. So, when walking my little man, brody, here, anything thats gross, he wants to investigate. Brody, gross. I dont even want to know. He loves water, and poop. You have dirty little paws. After every walk, i use wipes to scrub and clean his paws. This is the streets of new york right there. Whats an easier alternative to wipes . Its paw pit stop, an antibacterial welcome mat, cleans your pets paws at your front door. Its something i think every household could use. It truly is a pawfech product to give us dog owners peace of mind. Hello, guys. Im amy robach. And im going to get right to it. In order to explain, i need to show you, this is poor little niko. He got really muddy on his walk. Oh, no. Oh, no. Oh. I mean, i think anyone who has a dog, this has happened. We would rather cuddle with a cute, little thing like this. We have hurricane. And ashleys going to bring, a clean, little puppy. Theres 83 million dog owners. So, i have come up with the paw pit stop matt. This is a photo type. It will be more sophisticated when we take it to market. But the dog comes on here and it gets all of the dirt off of the paws. Why would the dog sit there . We have a little treat right there. You can rip it off and throw it away. Its biodegradable. And you put your new one for the next time you take your dog out. Two sizes. One for big dogs. One for little dogs. Once you buy the initial product, if you like it, which i know you are, you have to keep buying the refills. Do they take over the wee wee pad . Hes asking, because i think this dog made that mistake. The wee wee pad, he steps in it. That would not be good. How much would somebody pay for that . Relatively inexpensive. Its a onetime purchase. Maybe 29. 99 for the big one. Consumables is very good. Youre right on the money for having to replace and buy something again. How many of the 83 Million People care as much as you do . How many people care about having the dust off their floors. Isnt the challenge getting the dog from there to there . If you dont get him right to the paw pit stop, its not effective. I would have the paw pit stop right next to the door. I would get him on there right away. Im talking about convenience here. And getting things relatively clean. Why dont you just throw out the dog . There you go. Your by line has to change. You should change it to mess outside, clean inside. True. You want the positive to be reenforced. I like that. Will the sharks bite . They will score the idea from 1 to 5. To get everybody to use it the way it needs to be done, is a challenge. Im giving it a 3. I give it a 3. Theres a reason they call me mr.

I think the concept the good. I think you have to flush it out fuller. I like the idea. I think people spend money on their kids and their pets. But i have two little dachshunds. Theyre always getting in trouble. If that was in the house, if i wasnt at home, it would look like there was a ticker tape parade. Theyre tough. They had good ideas. This is a prototype. So, the design can evolve. I think the concept is still a good one. They didnt like our design. They didnt like it. You really built it up backstage of like that hurt. That stung. I thought i was going to get a zero. I think its a great thing. I know that ill just keep wiping his paws until we come up with the prototype. Can you do different colors . Like a plaid . Not a bad idea. It is a door mat for their dogs. And anybody who walked their dogs on the streets of new york, knows whats on the bottom of these paws. Lets look at the numbers. Final score, 13.

All that weather brought to you by kay jewelers. Amy . Thank you. And coming up, action there from the amazing spiderman 2. Dont worry. Spidey is okay. But he has to confront the green goblin, played by dane dehaan, who plays one of Peter Parkers oldest friends. Take a look. You ever figure out why your parents bailed . My dad left a briefcase. Thats all i got. A briefcase full of junk. Whatever. I dont know. I try not to think about it. Hows that working out for you . Perfectly. Nice form. Just a wrist. Just all in the wrist, buddy. And dane dehaan joins us now. Thanks for coming in this morning. Thanks for having me. Its such a rich part. You play the long, lost friend that becomes the mortal enemy. Its the biggest arc of a character ill ever have in a movie. Who i start out in the beginning and what i end up as in the end is so extreme. And theres a rich history to spiderman. When you tackle a classic character like the green goblin, how do you go about it . I think its important to honor the green goblin and Harry Osbourne as theyve always been because they existed for 50 years. To honor who they are in the spiderman universe. But whats exciting is you get to give the world a new Harry Osbourne and a new green goblin in the modern day. Were you a big fan as a kid . I love superheros. I think i started acting by dressing up as superheros. As spiderman, superman, ninja turtles. Thats where it began for me. And now i do it as a living is crazy. Amanda has a question thats related. She was on facebook. Do you catch yourself acting like your character at any time . Well, sometimes when were filming, because we film for like 14 hours a day. So, were literally these characters more than we are ourselves. So, sometimes subconsciously, it creeps into my everyday behavior. But i try really hard to separate my personal life from my professional life. That makes a lot of sense. Definitely. Emma stone and garfield were talking about the chemistry between them. But you had it with your fellow villain, jamie foxx. I love what he said about you. He said, that dude, he brings the pain. Jamies amazing. And he was such a support through this whole process. From my first day of shooting. To my first day of filming was my biggest scene in the movie. And jamie foxx is up in this rig, just staring down at me. High pressure. Your first scene is the biggest one . I know. Its insane. I was so nervous. Yeah. Jamie, he was up in this rig. And he was just screaming and shouting and rooting me on the whole way through. Was it fun to play the bad guy . Yeah, it was. I just really like acting. You know, this part is so complicated. It was so much fun to, you know, sink my teeth in it. And its kind of a big leap for you. You really made your mark, up until now, in the smaller, independent films. Did it feel different as youre working on it . Yeah. Well, you know. Its the biggest movie ive made by at least 150 million. So, theres a big like, ive made movies in 24 days before. And this movie, we had six months. Theres just its a great luxury to make a movie of this size and to have huge sets to take your time and make sure youre exploring every option you can. You did a great job with it. Thanks a lot for coming in. The amazing spiderman 2 opens nationwide on friday. You may have noticed a lot of cheering outside our windows this morning. Because of these guys.
