One of the planes in a new search area spot some objects today but couldnt confirm they are from the plane. They are looking at radar information and now decided the plane was going faster than previously thought. That means two things. It would have run out of fuel faster but it also means the plane could have been closer to the west coast of australia so that means that the search planes that go out about 680 miles northeast of where they were looking yesterday can spend longer in the search area because they wont run out of fuel as quickly. Six ships are also headed to that new area. Now to developing news out of Washington State. Officials say the number of dead in that massive mud slide will likely rise substantially.

Happening today, the San Jose Elementary School principal busted for allegedly selling meth to an undercover officer will be back in court. Kpix 5 reporter kiet do on how a dating website used in the sting led to his arrest. Hi, kiet. Reporter yes, good morning. What made this so shocking and disappointing for parents and students was that eric dean lewis was a high performing and very popular principal. During the course of this trial we will learn exactly what he was recording on that network of spycam was and what files were found on his computer. Acting on a temperature they say they connected with the principal through a gay dating website adam for adam and set up a rendezvous at a caltrain station. At some point the 42yearold offered drugs to an undercover agent in exchange for a date at lewis home. Police confiscated 10 hidden cameras including one in a teddy bear, computers, scales, opium pipe, enough drugs to charge him with possession for sale. Quarter ounce of methamphetamine, 7 pills of what is suspected to be mdma or ecstasy, and three or four vials of ghb. Reporter ghb or the date rape drug raises the possibility that victims were unknowingly recorded. Lewis has been a popular principal at montague Elementary School in santa clara for the past 7 years. The district says he did a great job increasing test scores across the board. Theres no evidence that kids were in danger. But agents seized his worker anyway saying he texted the undercover agent and set up a drug deal while on campus. People make choices, these things happen, we have to move on. And our job is about teaching and learning. Reporter if convicted he could spend up to five years in prison. Live in downtown san jose, kiet do, kpix 5.

Kpix 5 reporter cate caugiran is in San Francisco with developing news about a possible vote today at the state capital. Reporter michelle that vote hasnt officially been scheduled yet. We do have a live look at the capital right now. After all the chaos from wednesday, senator yee has been keeping low presumably in his home right behind me and we know that he has had some uncomfortable discussions with lawmakers in sacramento. A few days after after being charged with felonies, kpix 5 learned he is fighting to keep his job resisting calls for a resignation. A capital source familiar with the discussion said yee told Senate Leaders he would like to take a leave of absence but has not formally requested that paid leave. A spokesman for Senate President pro tem Darrell Steinberg said he couldnt confirm those conversations but said senator steinburg did repeat the two choices he gave yesterday, resign or be removed. Leave, dont burden your colleagues in this Great Institution with your troubles. Leave. Reporter meanwhile, yee is no longer a candidate for state office. His attorney read aloud a letter the senator wrote to secretary of state debra bowen. Dear, deborah. I hear withdraw my candidacy for election of secretary of state effective immediately. Clearly what we learned yesterday was amazingly disturbing really breathtaking in its scope and completely violative of the public trust. Reporter politicians from the bay area and beyond are now lining up. Im disappointed. Im frustrated and im angry. I want justice served. Reporter to insist that yee step down. And if he does not, the president pro tem of the senate has already announced that we will be voting on the floor tomorrow to suspend him so leland yee will not be on the floor of the senate ever again. Reporter as for that leave of absence, that has to be granted. We do know that two other democratic lawmakers were grand in the past to have a leave of absence amidst their criminal troubles but that wont happen here. Live in San Francisco, back to you. Youre standing in front of leland yees house. Have you seen any sign of him . No. We have been here for two days and we havent seen any sign. The only indicator we have that he is here is that yesterday we were here when a woman claiming to be a supporter dropped off some groceries for the senator. All right.

Kpix 5 reporter anne makovec is live in San Francisco with the story of a man on a mission to shame people. Reporter if the potential of killing somebody while distracted driving wont stop you, how about a face on a billboard . Thats whats happening in San Francisco. This is one several billboards, people being called twits for texting in traffic part of a oneman crusade to stop it. Bay area drivers are becoming infamous overnight for texting behind the wheel. Its an Old School Approach public embarrassment. I think it will create more, like, awareness that you shouldnt do that. Reporter these billboards showed distracted drivers caught in the act. The idea comes from Graphic Designer brian singer. I should love seeing them up. Reporter brian says from the passenger seat he started seeing distracted drivers everywhere and started snapping shots of them then inviting others to do the same and post them to his website twitspotting. Com. He spent thousands of his own dollars to put these pictures on billboards to call those drivers out. Not so much about shaming an individual as it is about raising awareness and making people think twice. Reporter and it is not just about texting and driving. Its also about eating or putting on makeup behind the wheel. You can see check out some of these pictures by going to our website kpix. Com and clicking on the story where you can go to the twit spotting website. Live in San Franciscos richmond district, anne makovec, kpix 5. The weirdest thing i have ever seen someone do behind the wheel . Eat a bowl of cereal. [ laughter ] thats distraction. That seems like a twohanded activity. I know. How do you do that . I dont know. Impressive nonetheless. We have a drives me crazy coming up so we get a lot of complaints and responses about what youve seen behind the wheel so stay tuned for that ma minute. In the meantime, look at this. The bay bridge is starting to back up a little bit. No metering lights yet at 5 46 but i think that could change any minute.

First, we want to know what drives you crazy during your morning commute . We got an email from phil who writes, drivers who double park on busy streets and think its fine because their blinkers are on. It affects both lanes dramatically. Its dangerous for minor wrecks and its very inconsiderate. Thanks, phil. Double parking is illegal and it can cause accidents for other drivers and even delay muni service if it happens in San Francisco. California vehicle code does allow commercial vehicles to double park if they need to unload. But no such luck for regular drivers like us. Even though its not always enforced, you can get a ticket for around 110 bucks. Thanks, phil, again for your email. We want to know what drives you crazy during your commute, whether its that, putting on makeup, whatever you see on the road. Ask a question or share a gripe by emailing crazy kpix. Com.
