Lewinsky did however say, even though i have suffered from shame, i am not ashamed of who i am. It has taken her years, i would say, almost like a decade to kind of get over this, and she says she never escapes the fact of what had happened between her and president clinton at the time.

Reporter donald trump now working to change a big part of his campaign his temperament. Asked by fox news if he has to be more mature to win the nomination. Is that a fair question . Well, i think its fair. I think the word mature is not appropriate. But i think its certainly fair. Reporter trump now trying to show his softer side, posing for People Magazine with his wife, melania, and youngest son, barron. But old habits die hard, and in New Hampshire trump mocking senator marco rubio and jeb bush for drawing small crowds while he pulls in thousands. There is a movement going on.

This morning in louisiana, still no sign of a convicted killer on the loose for more than a week after he was released from prison accidentally. Clayton sandell reports it was all because of an error in the paperwork. Reporter convicted killer Benjuiel Johnson didnt escape prison, he was let go. Mistakenly released saturday by a Louisiana State prison official who apparently never doublechecked to see that johnson was supposed to be serving time for manslaughter. It was an oversight on the staff. But its something that should have been caught. Reporter johnson was serving 35 years for shooting and killing cordies gales in 2010. How could he be out . He did use a weapon and kill someone, so, he is a high priority to get him. Reporter its not clear how many inmates get released by mistake, but it happens. These two florida inmates serving life for murder faked a judges signature in 2013 and were released. Captured three weeks later. And another louisiana inmate facing murder charges was captured in california after a paperwork mixup allowed him to go free. And we are told that prison official who made the mistake feels terrible about it, but its still not clear what her punishment will be. Clayton sandell, abc news, denver.

Theyre sharing their inspiring and unusual way of dealing with their grief. Todd unger has their story. Reporter the household is filled with photos of ethan hallmark, photos that captured his smile, the beads that captured his fight against canc cancer, a treatment or step along the journey that ended one year ago. I really learned from the best kid ever how to face adversity. Reporter but there is one thing you wont find in the hallmark home any longer. Its the very place ethan sat when we interviewed him in 2014 and its the very place where ethan passed away not long after. I struggled with looking at it every single day and it killed me. And most people that came into my house didnt know where he died. When they would sit in the spot he died on, it felt like my heart was being ripped out over and over. Reporter so over the weekend, friends and family took that couch to a rural field, packed with seven pounds of teflon and then blew it up. It was a way to honor his memory but also therapeutic to us. Its been an important step in the grief. Reporter there isnt much left of the couch now. The hallmarks hope by posting the video online, other families dealing with grief can realize there is no one way or right way to handle it. As time goes on, those emotional ambushes are still there. And you dont know when theyre going to happen. And how bad theyre going to be, but you sort of try and cope with it as best you can. Reporter the family also debated moving all together from their midlothian home but with so many neighbors still showing their support, they realized the right thing wasnt to leave but rather to remove a daily reminder of the day theyd rather just forget. Todd unger, channel 8 news. Definitely an unusual way to deal with the death of a child. But you never know. Its not an experience any of us want to go through. So just an unusual way and interesting. They say over 15,000 children are diagnosed with cancer each year in the u. S. King hussein of jordan once said when he was being treated in the u. S. Seeing the children with cancer gave him so much hope and support and made everything so much Better Seeing how strong they were. Definitely a tough thing to see. That kid fought for four years.

Now that hes returned to the vatican, weve learned about a controversial figure that francis met with in secret. Abcs paula faris with the abc exclusive. Reporter so many questions about what happened behind those doors in washington. That secret meeting with controversial kentucky clerk kim davis. It was really very humbling to even think that he would want to, you know, meet me or know me. Reporter davis, such a divisive figure, an elected official who went to jail after refusing to issue marriage licenses to gay couples, when the Supreme Court made marriage a right nationwide. Under Whose Authority are you not issuing licenses . Under gods authority. Reporter davis herself married four times. I recently asked her if her right to religious freedom trumps another persons legal right to wed. For me, its a heaven or hell issue. I feel if i issue a license reporter you feel you would go to hell . I would be participating in that act. Reporter but francis has reached out to gays and lesbians more than any other pope. If someone is gay and he searches for the lord and has good will, who am i to judge . He said. Still, davis, who is not catholic, says the pope told her to stay strong. I put my hand out and he reached and he grabbed it and i hugged him and he hugged me. And he said, thank you for your courage. On the plane back to rome, abcs terry moran asked the pope whether he supports Government Officials who say they can not follow some laws because of their religious beliefs. Do you support those kinds of claims of religious liberty . Reporter without mentioning davis, the pope defending conscientious objectors, saying, it is a human right. And if a Government Official is a human person, he has that right. From the vatican spokesman this oneline statement. I do not deny that the meeting took place, but i will not comment on it further. Kim davis legal team says they were approached by the vatican well before he arrived in the u. S. But they were instructed to keep this meeting under wraps because her legal team says the pope didnt want it to diminish his trip. Paula faris, abc news, new york. Very interesting.

By the end of the movie, the couple is in incapable of adjusting back to normality. A message ta seems to appeal to mostly Young Audiences at a time of life that is unconventional in or out of costume. Many have seen the movie so often, they know it song by song, line by line, recreating in the aisles of the theater the dialogue on the screen. [ cheers ] reporter tim curry who plays the transvestite has become a cult figure to fans who paid 8. 50 a person for this rocky horror convention.

Medicare is promising a crackdown on Ambulance Companies after investigators uncovered 30 million worth of suspicious rides. In most cases they found no proof that the patients were brought to a hospital even received medical care and taxpayers ended up footing the bill. Davids kerly explains. Reporter medicare pays for the ambulance rides for patients to see their doctors if theres a medical need, say they cant walk. But look at this undercover video. A patient climbing into an ambulance. Or this. A stop, so a patient can get takeout food. Investigators found more. We suspect also that some ambulance providers are billing when they are not actually giving rides. Reporter thats why you call them mystery rides. That is why we call them mystery rides. We dont know if they actually happened. Reporter those same investigators dug into just the First Six Months of records in 2012, and found 30 million billed for ambulances, and no record that the patient actually saw a doctor. Another 24 million paid out for patients who didnt qualify for an ambulance ride. Its like a glorified taxi service. Reporter we rode with special agents in philadelphia late last year who are trying to put Ambulance Company owners and even some patients in prison.

They want to impress the girls and be on par for each other. Reporter for that, theyre turning to protein. But the recommended dietary allowance of protein is only 52 grams per day, even less for teen girls. Megan does cite instances where protein powders can be helpful like for extreme athletes about you. Too much protein can be hard on the body, on your kidneys especially, the liver. And it can be dehydrateding. Reporter instead of powders and supplements she recommends real food like this shake, walnuts, greek yogurt, some juice and berries.
