May i ask of you to sing a song for me . David muir and the popes excitement about his historic first visit to the u. S. Only on gma this morning. And good morning, america. What a moment at the vatican. Abc news there exclusively for an historic global event. The pope getting ready for his first ever visit to the u. S. And making some big news this morning on the issue of abortion. Were going to get to that ahead. Big announcement coming up there. But first, we want to get to the extreme weather, making it a steamy start to september. The east coast set to bake in above normal 90degree heat and in the southwest, more rain, powerful wind. Ginger zee covering it all. Good morning to you, ginger. Good morning. Strong monsoon storms taking trees down, putting them on top of cars. And it sounded like this in phoenix. Oh, my god. Oh, my god. Oh, my god. Up to an inch and a half of rain. There were water rescues and it wasnt just there. Pockets of flash flooding and power outages, 65,000 in phoenix. To this in brownsville, texas, 4 to even 6 inches of rain, especially north of the city. A lot of the drains couldnt handle it. And charleston, south carolina, had their fifth wettest day on record. Finally that heat, lara, you were just talking about it. Heat pushing to the east up into minnesota. Some places enduring 10 to 15degree above average temperatures. And its going to stay through the midweek. George . Okay, ginger, thanks. We turn to the Hillary Clinton emails released overnight. More than 7,000 pages. The largest release yet from her time as secretary of state. Theyve been a thorn in her side throughout the campaign and Martha Raddatz and our team in washington pored through them all night long. And martha, a real mix of policy, politics, and some personal stuff. Reporter there certainly are, george. The emails include thoughts from her daughter chelsea, to her choice of tv shows, to the most serious issues confronting clinton while secretary of state. Overnight, those 7,000 pages of emails from clintons private server released. 125 now deemed classified. Including details from a meeting with israeli Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu now heavily redacted. A clinton aide aware at the time of the sensitivities, happy to talk secure at your convenience, he writes. But then adding the highlights are as follows. Those details now blanked out. It appears even employees of the state departments computer help desk were confused by clintons use of the private server. They had no idea it was you. Just some random address, so they emailed. Her aide, huma abedin, replies to clinton. Many of the other emails more mundane but providing insight into the person behind the office. Details from her daughter, chelsea, about a trip to her excitement over and ipad, asking, do you think you can teach me to use it on the flight to kiev next week . Disdain for government shutdowns during snow days in the nations capital. I guess i will work from home again but think this is silly. Even the need to know when two Popular Television shows air, can you give me times for two tv shows, parks and recreation and the good wife. So far only 25 of the emails have been released. The state department is aiming to have them all out by january 2016. Clinton has said repeatedly that none of the emails she exchanged were marked classified. But clearly officials now think that some information being discussed over her private email server at the time contains information that certainly should be. And there are many more emails yet to come. George . That provides more fodder for critics. Okay, martha, thanks very much. We turn to the republicans and this morning donald trump has some company at the top of the polls. A new poll shows dr. Ben carson surging to a first place tie with trump in iowa. Lets go to jon karl for more. You have Carly Fiorina in third. Not a professional politician in the bunch. Reporter thats right, george. In all of american history, we have never elected a president who didnt have either political or military experience. But now Republican Voters seem to be saying, if you have government experience, you need not apply. Could there be a new republican frontrunner . Out in iowa there is. Or at least cofrontrunner. Dr. Ben carson is now tied with donald trump with 23 in the state that will vote first. Coming in third, former hp ceo Carly Fiorina at 10 . What do all three have in common . None of them have served a single day in political office. I dont want to be a politician. Reporter the crowded republican field is jampacked with political experience, nine governors, five senators, but Republican Voters seem to be saying they just dont care about all that. They want an outsider. They want to get reelected. And i want to save our nation. Reporter dr. Carson has an inspiring personal story. He climbed out of the depths of poverty in inner city detroit to become one of the worlds most highly regarded brain surgeons. When i take someone to the operating room im operating on the thing that makes them who they are. The skin doesnt make them who they are. The hair doesnt make them who they are. And its time for us to move beyond that. Reporter carson is staunchly antiabortion. He has said obama care is the worst thing since slavery. Earlier this year, he apologized for saying people go into prison straight and come out gay. 81 of iowa voters say they have a favorable view of carson, only 6 , george, said unfavorable. That makes him by far the most wellliked politician. Now politician candidate in the race. Just an incredible year already. Okay, jon karl, thanks very much. All right, george. Turning now to a Deadly Police shooting. A texas man gunned down by officers responding to a domestic dispute. The incident, caught on camera. And in the video, the victim appears to be raising his hands right before hes shot. The officers have been placed on administrative leave. We want to warn you, the video may be difficult to watch. Abcs matt gutman is in houston with the story. Matt, good morning. Reporter good morning, lara. For one College Student, it was impossible not the watch.

The cell phone video taken by a College StudentMichael Thomas who sold it to abc affiliate ksat. He put his hands in the air. They shot him twice. Reporter although one of his hands is obscured by a pole, 41yearold Gilbert Flores appears to have both hands raised when multiple shots are fired. He just shot that guy, bro. Reporter he collapses to the ground. For the next three minutes officers leave him there. Not appearing to render first aid. He was later pronounced dead at a local hospital. The bexar sheriffs blasting ksat, saying it should not have released the unedited video. Saying itself received threats and as a result, its unethical and sad. The incident began when officers responded to a domestic disturbance call on friday. You see a shirtless flores running out of the home seeming to evade a pair of deputies which the Sheriffs Office says had been on the job for more than ten years. Police say flores may have injured an 18monthold girl and a woman inside the home. Whats in the video is a cause for concern. But its important to let the investigation go through its course so that we can assure a thorough and complete review of all that occurred. Reporter the District Attorneys Office investigating. Thanking the young man who captured the footage. I was watching. I was kind of wondering what was going on. But i couldnt figure this out. Its been going on in the world different type of shootings with cops and Different Things like that. So i was like, maybe i can catch something on my camera. Reporter the d. A. s office is telling us there is a second video of that shooting. Its not yet been released. We have also learned the Justice Department is monitoring the Sheriffs Office investigation of the shooting. George . Certainly will. Okay, matt, thanks very much.

Steinle was killed on july 1st as she walked with her family on a San Francisco pier by francisco sanchez, a mexican immigrant previously deported from the u. S. Five times, after he had been released by city officials. Among those expected to be named in the upcoming lawsuit, u. S. Bureau of land management, the gun used by sanchez stolen from the car of one of that agencys investigators. Also expected to be named in the suit, u. S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. As well as San Franciscos sheriff ross mirkarimi, who released sanchez from his jail in april despite a request from immigration officials he be turned over. Steinles family blames those who allowed sanchez to walk free in the first place. We dont need them here, not violent felons.

Has suffered a selfinflicted wound in the murder of our daughter by the hand of a person that should have never been on the streets of this country. Reporter the family hoping to honor their daughter by protecting others. The family says everyone is to blame.

Now for that historic event with the pope. Lets get straight to david muir in rome. Good morning, david. Reporter george, good morning from just outside the vatican here. As you know we witnessed something truly historic here in the last 24 hours on the eve of pope francis visit to the United States. We were allowed inside the vatican here for an hour with pope francis, where he greeted us as he prepares for his trip to america. He told me hes ready. He did have a couple of messages he wanted delivered to the American People before his historic visit. We quietly wait outside this door. Inside the closed walls of the vatican. Were not far from the popes residence, a simple building where he lives with other priests, famous for choosing to forego the grand papal apartment. Were told in a moment the doors will open. The pope will emerge. Instead the door opens. They wave me inside. The pope asking for a moment to meet before the cameras. Then our walk to the room where he knows were about to connect him with hundreds of americans across the country. A virtual papal audience. A conversation with them. We tell him there are many families, many young people in american who will follow his american trip on television. And as we head into the room, a smile. Surprised at the scope of the crew. He knows our cameras are in three cities he wont be able to visit. A school in chicago. In los angeles. And a church in mcallen, texas, on the u. S. Mexico border. [ speaking spanish ] reporter we tell him we are honored to be here and we begin. We are curious if you have a message before your visit to the United States. [ speaking spanish ] reporter he tells us a big greeting to the Catholic Community and the United States and to everyone, all of the citizens of the u. S. And when 19yearold marcus from los angeles asks why his trip to the u. S. Is so important its a great honor to meet you. [ speaking a Foreign Language ] reporter he says, for me, it is very important to meet with you all. The citizens of the u. S. Who have your history, culture, virtues, joy, sadness, your problems like everyone else. There were many questions and stories of adversity and survival. Valerie, 17 from chicago, who has struggled with a rare skin disorder her whole life. She sought music to survive the bullying. And after the tears in front of the pope, an unexpected request from pope francis. That request in english. Valerie, i would like to hear you singing. May i ask of you to sing a song for me . Reporter we were all unsure if she would sing. Be courageous. [ applause ] [ singing in spanish ] [ cheers and applause ] thank you very much. Its very kind of you. [ speaking spanish ] reporter the pope talking to single mothers. To students. Even surprising an american nun. Tackling issues, immigration, abortion, education. We have never seen anything quite like it from a pope. But this pope, after all, is already breaking the mold. And george, it truly was an extraordinary moment with valerie and so many of the other americans who gathered for the pope but in that moment alone, it was surprising for two reasons, first he spoke english to her when he asked her to sing a song for me. And to see the smile on his face and to hear him speak english. He did it a number of times. This is clearly a pope who is preparing for his visit to america. A lot of americans preparing for him, as well. Remarkable stuff there and that young woman, so courageous, cant wait to meet her in the next hour. As well. Yes, we will meet her coming up on gma.

We begin with a neighbortoneighbor feud that turned deadly. A former tennessee School Security guard on trial for killing his neighbor. He claims selfdefense. His fate in the hands of the jury and reena ninan has the story. Reporter a frightened father protecting his children or a menacing neighbor ending a longtime feud with four gunshots. Kevin waggoner says he took video to prove his innocence. None of the video was running that night to prove his innocence. You know why, ladies and gentlemen . Because hes not innocent. Reporter this morning a jury is deciding whether former School Security guard Kevin Waggoner is guilty of Second Degree murder for killing neighbor michael woodby. Come on bring your [ bleep ] out here. Reporter the jury seeing nearly 180 hours of footage from the threeyear feud between the two. Both neighbors documenting their claims of threats and harassment by the other. Come on back over here. [ bleep ] step on this side [ bleep ]. This is someone who told you, who told kevin, that he was going to get that boy and on september 16th, thats exactly what he tried to do. Reporter waggoner testified that in september 2013, a drunken woodby approached him and his son, kolton, hitting kolton over the head with a fence post. Waggoner then firing his gun at woodby four times, claiming selfdefense. I just didnt know what else to do. I didnt have a choice. Reporter but woodbys widow tells a different story, saying waggoner was the real threat. You dont talk to my children. You dont videotape them every time you get off the school bus. Come over here with my kids . Videotaping children. Reporter and prosecutors playing audio of waggoner allegedly threatening woodby, recorded just months before the incident. This is 100 within his control now, not to die from me. Reporter waggoner faces up to 25 years in prison if convicted. For Good Morning America, reena ninan, abc news, new york. Okay, lets talk to dan abrams about this right now. You know, dan, usually the defendants testimony is so critical. But in this case, hes got a big problem. Thats right. His testimony is certainly important, meaning if the jury doesnt believe him, hes in big trouble. But even if they do, even if he seems credible, the defense has to address the physical evidence in this case. Theyve got real issues about where the shell casings were found, where the stick that he said was used to attack him was found. Because prosecutors say it was found on the other side of the street and that the way they believe that the bullets were fired was from above, not someone who was defending themselves but someone who was shooting someone. And prosecutors believe he may have even been turned away when they fired. So all this is really important in the context of the testimony. Waggoners behavior after the killing reported to be pretty callous. How does that factor in . I think its horrible for him when the jury is thinking about, do we believe him . Because you have evidence here, he admits it, that hes sitting on a Police Scanner waiting to confirm that he hears doa, meaning dead on arrival. Is that what someone who has acted in selfdefense does . The widow talks about how he mocked her right after her husband had been killed. He was even mocking their children. Thats not the sort of thing thats helpful with the jury when youre asking the jury to accept my story, believe my account, even though theres troubling physical evidence. Tennessee, one of these stand your ground states. A person has the right to defend themselves in their home. How does that play into this . They have the right to defend themselves even outside their home without retreating, right . But i dont know that its going to be the key issue. This is a selfdefense case. Here the question is, was it reasonable for him to use the actions that he did because he believed that he was in imminent danger of either death or serious Bodily Injury . And thats the legal standard. Okay. Dan abrams, thanks very much. All right. All right, george to that mystery at a california high school. Two Football Players rushed to the hospital after a game. Both with brain injuries. One of them in critical condition. But there are questions this morning about how it happened. Abcs Kayna Whitworth joins us now with the story. Kayna, good morning. Reporter yeah, a lot of questions. Lara, good morning to you. And while School Officials comb through game footage the Sheriffs Office is now involved saying they are investigating what happened both on and off the field. This morning, California Police and School Officials trying to solve the mystery of what caused two High School Football players to both be hospitalized with sudden brain injuries after a routine game. Thorough investigation is under way to ascertain exactly what happened including a review of game footage. And other offfield factors. Reporter nick brown and Justin Schwartz had just finished playing friday night when teammates and spectators noticed something wrong. He just wasnt looking right. It looks like he was exhausted. Reporter within minutes the two teens losing consciousness and collapsing both rushed to local hospitals. Schwartz treated for a concussion and nerve injury before being released saturday. But brown, still hospitalized in critical condition, after undergoing emergency brain surgery friday night. His family telling abc news, he suffered a highimpact blow to the head that caused a subdural brain bleed. If a blow to the head is traumatic enough, it can cause blood. And that blood can collect and cause layers in the head. Reporter authorities now investigating whether reports of drug use among players particularly the Prescription Drug adderall, used to treat adhd, may have played a role. The rumor we heard about was adderall. That would be the primary focus. Reporter officials arresting a 17yearold fellow student monday for allegedly selling the drug to classmates. Though they say so far they have not connected the suspect to the injuries that brown and schwartz suffered. And as authorities search for answers, the teens classmates simply hoping for their recovery. Its scary because its like you dont expect that to happen but when it really does its like it hits you. Reporter a neurologist we spoke to said theres no clear relationship between adderall and developing blood around your brain after a hit. But this investigation continues. And george and lara, we want to pass along to you that nicks family is saying he is responding to some stimuli. That is some good news. Okay, kayna, thanks very much.

New studies show a startling number of automobile drivers just ignore the rules when driving near school buses, putting childrens lives at risk. Abcs gio benitez has more on that from the bronx. Gio, good morning. Reporter lara, good morning. School buses have these flashing stop signs that just come out. But for some reason, tens of thousands of drivers just keep going. And no doubt the videos are scary. Watch as this suv in Washington State nearly hits three girls about to board a bus. You can see the girls step out but jump back as the suv crosses just inches from them. The terrifying nearmiss was captured by a school bus camera. In this video from west virginia, a school bus stops, puts out the stop arm, and not one, but two cars race by. The bus driver honks. And as the boy starts to cross, a third car nearly hits him. [ horn honking ] newly released numbers showing that in just one day, maryland bus drivers reported that vehicles illegally passed them 2,796 times. And 83 of those times they were passed on the right side, where children get on and off the bus. Think about it. If the children are waiting at their stop, getting ready to get on the bus, cars are disregarding the red lights and driving down the right side. That is just a major safety issue. Reporter its not just maryland. 26 states counted illegal passings on the right. And while participation varied state by state, all reported troubling numbers. And these violations can be deadly. According to the National Association of state directors of Pupil Transportation services, on average ten students are killed per year by drivers illegally passing school buses. I think folks particularly that time of day in the morning are trying to get somewhere and just arent paying the sort of attention they should. Reporter in most states when drivers see the stop sign, by law they must stop on both sides of the school bus within 25 feet of the stop sign. One bus manufacturer ic bus installing additional strobe lights on buses, a customization that other School Districts can request. And a Pilot Program in North Carolina installing extended stop signs like this one which is six feet across hoping to prevent scary misses. And this morning, a possible solution. Take a look. We put a camera under that stop sign. This is law in 11 states, where authorities will catch you on camera if you dont stop for that bus. Itll record your license plates both on the front and the back of your car so youll be getting a ticket in the mail, lara. All right, gio, thanks. Lets hope it works.

Reporter husband and wife ken and Sonia Mckenzie were flying off to see their daughter in virginia when their singleengine plane experienced mechanical issues.

The former chief operating officer for spirit airlines. He now works for airbus. And he knew just what to do. His actions, totally heroic. Reporter holding his wifes hand every step of the way. And he said get into the canal. We found ourselves in the canal, which is good because we were in a lot of pain, and sonia said, dont you think theres alligators in here . Reporter luckily, no, not at that moment. It is a miracle hes here. Reporter the doctors say mckenzie, who spoke with us from his hospital bed, was badly burned but will make a full recovery. Sonia told us she has a solo flying lesson scheduled for next week and she does plan to be there. Despite the crash that had her husband celebrating his 53rd birthday in the hospital.

Welcome back to gma. Its time now for that lifechanging moment for one young woman in chicago. See her there, just had the opportunity to sing for the pope. We are going to talk to her live in just a moment. But first, lets go to tom llamas who was in the room. It was a remarkable moment, tom . Reporter it was an amazing moment. The only advice i gave this young woman before we started our conversation with pope francis was be yourself. Shes petite as you could see, softspoken and was very nervous. But you never really know whats inside someone until you see a moment like this. Valerie, may i ask of you to sing a song for me . Reporter 17yearold Valerie Herrera could not believe it, pope francis asking her to sing for him just speaking to his holiness, emotional enough for this teenager. You got this. Be courageous. [ applause ] reporter just sing a couple bars. Okay. Reporter it didnt happen right away. But then she raised the mike up and magic. [ singing in spanish ] reporter the pope, and her classmates, erupting in cheers. I was with valerie at that moment. She and her classmates at chicagos Cristo Rey High School selected by the vatican to be part of this virtual audience with news, valerie selected by us for her courage in overcoming a skin disorder called vitiligo. I was picked on. I was bullied. Because how i looked like. Reporter valerie turned to music which gave her confidence. Music has always been something i was able to use to escape all the bullying and everything that was going around me. Reporter valerie asking the pope what he wants from the youth of america. Pope francis telling her but also using what happened inside the chapel as an example. He asked for courage. The pope saying, it was difficult for you to take that first step to sing for me. You were excited. You didnt know what to do. But you were courageous and you took the first step and you sang very beautifully. Keep singing. You sing beautifully. Now, the kids in that chapel were so amazing. Her classmates did not stop cheering afterwards. Hugs and so happy to be part of that virtual audience with the pope. From his reaction, i think his holiness could feel their energy. And right now, Valerie Herrera joins us from chicago. Are you still over the moon . Good morning. So how did it feel to have the pope ask you to sing . Well, i didnt expect it to happen, so it so it just happened and so i really couldnt say no. [ laughter ] very good answer, valerie. I want to ask you about the song that you chose. Yes. Im sorry, valerie. This is lara. I just wanted to ask you about the song you chose. Its called by you, mary. Does it have a special meaning to you . Yeah, so since i was in the choir with my mom, since i was like a really little girl, it was one of the first songs that well, my mom taught me. And so it was just like the first song and kind of popped in my head and so it was just like i guess one that just stuck with me through my childhood and everything. Valerie, i know that you paused. You hesitated before you started singing. And the pope said to you, pope francis said, be courageous. Where did you find that courage . How were you courageous . Did you say anything to yourself . What went through your mind at that moment . Well, so at first i had like no clue how to start it off. I couldnt remember the first words. But then i looked back to my mom because she was sitting in the crowd and i was like, okay, shes here. And i can do it. And then, so, its like, i guess she just looking at her gave me the courage. Valerie, when did you find out that you were going to get to talk to the pope and what was going through your mind when you found out . Well, i found out that same morning like 40 minutes before, i think. Wow. So, yeah, they just told me to be there early because there was going to be a meeting and they wanted me to be there to ask questions and so i was like, okay, no big deal. But then they told me, oh, youre going to be talking to the pope. And i was like, what . Really . I just i thought they were joking. But then, i guess it was the real deal. The real deal, all right. You were so honest in saying that singing has been sort of an escape for you from dealing with things like bullying. Now i want to know the reaction from your classmates now that you got to sing for the pope. Yeah, so everyone just told me well, the classmates that were there that they knew, they would send me messages or theyd just text me and say, oh, my gosh, you did beautifully. You did such a great job and it was like, were so proud of you. I knew you could do it and so it was just a really good experience. Well, they were absolutely right. You did beautifully, congratulations, valerie. Thanks for joining us this morning. Thank you. And, of course, theres going to be much more with the pope on world news and special edition of 20 20 friday at 10 00 eastern. A lifechanging moment. Thats great. And for so many who were able to hear pope francis. Coming up next, gma investigates. Medical apps that claim they can help you analyze symptoms. The ftc is now taking action concerned about some of the claims being made. And abcs Mara Schiavocampo has more. Reporter worried about a suspicious mole after your exposure to sun this summer . It turns out theres an app for that. I thought, oh, my gosh, well im going to try this. Reporter julie gave mole detective a shot. The app told users to upload a photo along with other information to help see if you might have a suspicious mole. Then if the app returned a green light it claimed melanoma risk was low, red was high. Julies husband died of melanoma so her family is on high alert for the disease. She says she tried the app on her daughter lilys arm. It came back red. Reporter but a visit to the dermatologist showed lily was fine. She says mole detective gave her a false positive. I just became very concerned about this app being available on the market. Reporter so was the federal trade commission. It recently sued the marketers of mole detective and another app called melapp, accusing them of making deceptive claims regarding melanoma detection. Both companies settled the suit without admitting wrongdoing and agreed not to make deceptive claims in the future. We were not given evidence showing that those apps were accurate in any way. Reporter with thousands of medical apps on the market and new ones popping up all the time, the ftc says its keeping a close eye on this market. Dermatologist laura ferris of the university of Pittsburgh Medical Center conducted a study on the accuracy of several apps for melanoma detection. Thee of these apps were automated. They gave back an answer right away. Reporter the best one missed 30 of melanomas, the worst one missed 93 . While the apps say theyre for educational purposes only, ferris is concerned customers could rely on that. You shouldnt trust diagnosis of cancer to Something Like an app that doesnt have data to back it up. Reporter as for mole detective, its representatives told gma investigates that the company settled because litigation was too costly and the ftcs claims were unfounded. The marketer for melapp could not be reached for comment. Both apps included disclaimers advising users to see a physician for any concerns and for regular checkups. For Good Morning America, Mara Schiavocampo, abc news, new york. Our thanks to mara for that. And both the mole detective and melapp are no longer available. If you have a mole that youre uncertain about or you have a Family Member that has had melanoma, you should absolutely have your skin checked once a year by a physician. Yes. Very good advice. All right, turning now to our series calling it the secret cash stash and this morning were revealing how to make quick and easy money online. Our becky worley met with one mom who learned how to make thousands a month by shopping her closet. Becky, do explain. Reporter good morning, lara. I will.

For a dramatic look, the more mascara the better some say and abcs Mara Schiavocampo gets a lesson in taking mascara to the max. Yahoo reporter its the key to making your eyelashes pop perfectly and stay curled for the long haul. A sultry stare perfected by Hollywood Alister like kerry washington. Why is mascara important . Its so important because as we get older our lashes fade away and when it comes to paddington i say go for the blackest of black and for women that love a lot of lashes, layer a couple formulas of mascara up to four coats. Reporter bobbi brown editor in chief of yahoo beauty is taking us back to basics. Start with the curl ler. Gently clamp and hold it and just lift your hand a little bit. See at the very tip theres always a little bit extra, take it off. Thats how you get spikes. Never apply it to the top only apply it underneath. What you want to do is get every little lash, im separating it as im applying it. The first coat is really just enough to add definition. Now i will do the second coat and then if you want to add another formula, you can do that. This is a formula that is more thickening than lengthening but dont be afraid of three coats because theyre not clumpy. The bigger brush will make your lashes look thicker and the smaller brushes will make sure it gets every little lash and you let it dry and then just use the small wand for the bottom. You dont want too much and then last when the lashes are almost done, you gently bend it up and hold it and voila, instant curl. Wow, that works fantastic. Really simple. Reporter the perfect tips to keep you turning heads with a truly long lash and voluminous gaze. Open those eyes right up. For Good Morning America, Mara Schiavocampo, abc news, new york. Mascara 101.
