Alex wagner of cbs this Morning Saturday is with us. President obama says hes quote directed to russias president Vladimir Putin about hacking and the United States will strike back. Officials have told cbs news that american intelligence agencies believe putin at some point was directly involved in the hacking around the election. And they believe putin approved spreading the information. President obama told npr news that the u. S. Would retaliate. I think there is no doubt that when any Foreign Government tries to impact the integrity of our elections, that we need to take action. And we will. At a time and place of our own choosing. Russian officials said this morning that putin at a g20 summit gave president obama a really clear response to the charge of interfering in the u. S. Election. Margaret brennan is at the white house. Shes got new information about that meeting. Margaret, good morning. Good morning. Two months before the u. S. Election, president obama confronted Vladimir Putin about the hackings. The russians have already been alerted by secretary kerry that their intrusions had been detected. And president obama warned there would be consequences. Some of it may be explicit and publicized. Some of it may not be. But mr. Putin is well aware of my feelings about this because i spoke to him directly about it. Reporter the president s private conversation with Vladimir Putin took place in september on the sidelines of the g20 summit in china. In what is described as a blunt, and candid 90 minute meeting, mr. Obama warned putin that he didnt want to launch a cyber arms race, but he vowed america would retaliate. We got more capacity than anybody both offensively and defensively. At the time, president obama did acknowledge that the two had spoken about cybersecurity. We did talk about cybersecurity generally. Im not going to comment on specific investigations that are still alive and active. We now know one of those investigations was a russian hacking connected to the Democratic National committee and the president ial election. Within hours of the president s conversation, putin had pulled back from a ceasefire deal in syria and a u. S. Offer to coordinate airstrikes against isis and Al Qaedalinked terrorists. But u. S. Officials claim there is no connection. The white house is considering sanctions on senior russian intelligence officials and a proportional cyber response. Now one factor as to why the white house waited, well president obama said he didnt want to appear to politicize the intelligence. But, the white house had also expected Hillary Clinton to win the election, and intended to coordinate with her. This morning, the kremlin said the u. S. Should provide some proof of this hacking, or stop talking about it. Margaret, thank you. Cbs news will have full coverage of president obamas final News Conference of the year today. The coverage begins at 11 15 a. M. Pacific time. Thats right here on cbs. U. S. Investigators are saying more about the motives for the russian hackings. They believe political campaigns were not the only target. For Vladimir Putin and his intelligence service. Jeff pegues is talking with his sources about the russian operation that began in the summer of last year. Jeff, good morning. Good morning. Investigators believe the Cyber Attacks that affected the Democratic National committee are part of an elaborate russian Cyber Espionage operation. U. S. Intelligence officials have warned for some time that russian officials have been working to carry out Cyber Operations that cause political instability or even regime change. The investigators now believe that Vladimir Putin initially wanted to damage Hillary Clinton with the Cyber Attacks. I stood up to russia. Reporter and to inject chaos and doubt into the u. S. Election process. Theyve also decided who they want to see become president of the United States, too, and its not me. Wow, what a crowd. Reporter u. S. Officials say it was an added bonus that donald trump, seen as more friendly to russian interests, became the republican nominee. Wouldnt it be nice if we actually got along with russia . Reporter the information investigators now have comes from a variety of sources, and shows that hundreds of people may have been involved from the kremlin to russian intelligence. They werent just trying to get elections, and while electing trump definitely benefits them, they also win even if clinton is elected because she would be weakened. Her mandate to govern would be weakened by all of the negative feedback thats been put into the media system. Reporter a fellow at George Washington university. Rather than negotiating at a statetostate level theyre engaging the u. S. Public to try and influence an outcome that they want. Reporter the election process was not the only target for russian hackers. The American Military was targeted in july of 2015 when the unclassified email system of the pentagons joint staff was breached. Cbs News National security correspondent david martin reports that retired chairman of the joint chiefs Martin Dempsey said the attack occurred at an alarming speed. Within an hour hackers had seized control of the computer credentials of dempsey and hundreds of other senior officers. The only way to stop the attack was to take down the computer network. The hack came from 30,000 emails that were sent to a west coast university. Four were forwarded to members of the joint staff, one was opened. The apparent purpose was to cause damage, and force the pentagon to replace their hardware and software. Investigators believe the russians were lashing out at the Obama Administration imposed economic sanctions. Charlie . Thanks, jeff. President elect trump still downplays russias role in the hacking. Last night he criticized the White House Press secretary who said mr. Trump must have known the hacking was helping his campaign. This foolish guy, josh earnest, i dont know if hes talking to president obama, you know, having the right press secretary is so important. Because he is so bad the way he delivers a message. Cbs news political director and face the nation moderator John Dickerson is with us. Following what jeff said, following what Margaret Brennan said, how does the president respond . So this is interesting. Fred kaplan wrote the United States has a lot of great cyber rocks to throw at russia. But it also has a much glassier house which is to argue that we rely on the internet and we are so interconnected that if the u. S. Responds to russia, and this starts a back and forth, that the u. S. Is actually quite vulnerable. And so thats the delicate thing here. How do you respond . You can either respond in cyber area, or you you can respond with more sanctions, or even militarily. Okay, or more aggressive in europe . Now the question is how to respond but then how to hand off the response. Yeah. Because donald trump in 35 days. Doesnt think the russians are even involved a. And b on all the areas of russian potential conflict his posture is much more relaxed at least publicly in terms of what he says than what the Obama Administration says. How much pressure does this put on trumps cabinet picks . Secretary of state nominee is already under the microscope for his relationship to Vladimir Putin. Is he going to have to toe trumps line on Russian Intelligence Services and trumps disbelief that they had anything to do with the hacking . That will be a central question of his confirmation. Well see where this story is by that time. So whether this is the specific thing that they talk about, thats it. But there are so many other areas where russia and the United States have both areas of conflict and possible and necessary cooperation. Counterbalance china, being a big one. So, well see where this story is. But if it continues, this is a very i mean its like a spy novel. So you can imagine it being a big deal for that country. Then a lot of people are talking today about his attack on josh earnest the White House Press secretary considered very popular, very good at his job. Most people would never use the phrase foolish guy. What do you make of that . Is this more of donald trump being donald trump . Yes. With donald trump we know theres the shiny object that he throws us to get us talking about it. Then theres the things that he says that are truly damaging. Here we have a nice example of that. Josh earnest is the shot at josh earnest, shiny object to get us distracted. The one that is really still roiling washington is the response the administration had to the reports of russian hacking when they said the intelligence community, these are the people who thought there were wmds in iraq. Attacking the cia. By bringing up its worst failure in the last 15 years. Defining its work by that. That is a shot that will not be forgotten. This is the intelligence of people that the president elect has to work with. Can say at this point Vladimir Putin is winning and doing what he intended to do . If what he intended to do was create chaos and undermine u. S. Institutions, hes doing very well. Thank you. On face the nation he introduces tom donnellen and former secretary of state Henry Kissinger sunday on cbs. Another good show for John Dickerson. Great show. Saying that every friday about you. Well, thanks, gayle. S. Youre right. Hopefully well keep that coming. Thank you, john. Much of the country is waking up to frinl id and potentially dangerous cold. Temperatures are below freezing right now for millions of americans from the Pacific Northwest to the midatlantic. On the west coast, heavy rains stretch from Northern California down to los angeles. Flooding was a problem for some parts of the state. Chief weather Coster Lonnie Quinn of our new york station wcbs is tracking where that rain is headed as well as the cold. The cold. There are portions of the Northern Plains that have not felt like theyve been above zero since tuesday and it will be another one of those days where they feel like theyre below zero. Out west places like seattle, feel like around 30 degrees. At about 2 00 this afternoon. Portland you feel like around 28 degrees at about 2 00 this afternoon. These are the feelslike temperatures through the warmest time of your day. As far as precipitation thats out there. Yep, lower levels picking up the rain. But the higher elevations, anywhere from the four corners up into the Northern Plains. Pushing into portions of the midwest. This is snow for you, wisconsin, six, maybe twelve inches of snow. But its a skiers paradise. And as this storm rumbles over the mountains, its going to be dumping a lot of snow, and then it gets into places like, okay, you know, minnesota, wisconsin, thats six to twelve inch range skiers could see you know, one, two feet of snow. Three feet of snow is possible as well. Again were talking the mountain peaks. You talk about how theres a big rain at the lower elevations, but the skiers you get the big snow. Thank you, lonnie. Farther east snow is hitting parts of the plains and midwest. Minneapolis could get eight inches by sunday night. The great lakes will see more lakeeffect snow after getting hit yet again. Demarco morgan is in syracuse, new york, in the elements. Good morning to you. Good morning. Most of the people here in upstate new york are waking up to scenes like this. You can see the streets just completely covered in snow. Look over here you cant even make out the sidewalk and it looks like a lot of fun for those who want to get out and enjoy. You want to be careful with spots like this. This is pockets of ice. Sheets of ice underneath all of the white powdery stuff. If you just have to get out on the roads, play it safe. Overnight, strong winds, and snow pummeled western new york as the the brutal cold and winterlike weather stretches from the midwest dont really feel like doing anything right now. Reporter to the northeast. Its freezing out here. I feel like its going to blow me away. Reporter as we go, this time lapse video shows a wall of lake effect snowing burying the region. About 35 miles north of syracuse people battled whiteout conditions in pulaski. On the roads, the storm conditions created havoc. One pileup in western pennsylvania involved 59 vehicles and more than two dozen motorists were involved in a crash that sent six to the hospital on long island in new york. We were driving along and the car hit us in the back and he swerved to try and not hit this car and we got hit again. The dangerous roads made it impossible for nancy abbott to get deliveries at her food bank in adams, new york. Does it frighten you . Does it concern you . Well of course im concerned because we have, you know, approximately the same people coming each month. To get an extra bit of food, and when we cant offer it, you know, it is, its sad. That is sad. Because a number of families were depending on the food delivery. Actually coming from syracuse. But we have some good news to report. The delivery will be made sometime today. Demarco, thanks. The Church Massacre gunman dylann roof could face the Death Penalty after being convicted of 33 federal charges. A jury of 12 found him guilty yesterday. The same group will decide next month whether the 22yearold should be sentenced to death. The selfdescribed white supremacist admitted to killing nine people at an Historic Black Church in charleston, south carolina. Mark strassmann is outside the federal courthouse there. Mark, good morning. Good morning. From this trials opening moments, the guilty verdict was seen as a slam dunk for federal prosecutors. Roofs jury talked it over for all of two hours before deciding he was guilty of a lethal, racist rampage. These images of dylann roof taking target practice for the eventual murder weapon helped convince jurors of his guilt. In Closing Arguments federal prosecutor Nathan Williams called roof a man of immense hatred who committed an act of tremendous cowardice, shooting them as they had their eyes closed in prayer. Prosecutors showed roofs videotaped confession to fbi agents. I went to that church in charleston, and i did it. Reporter defense lawyer conceded to jurors that roof was guilty but suggested he showed signs of Mental Illness and that roofs racist beliefs were his own. As far as we can tell from evidence, he had no friends, he said. Saying he didnt have any friends. We had nine friends, twelve friends in that room. Reporter she survived the attack. Her son was killed right in front of her. During her testimony, she called out roof for refusing to look at her. That goes to show you how cold and callus he is. He slaughtered nine people. And you sit there, and dont even look. Reporter sharon watched every day of the trial. She lost her mother, ethel, and two of her cousins, in roofs rampage. Some people would say dylann roof is the poster child of why the Death Penalty exists. If this case didnt warrant the Death Penalty, then i dont know whatcase would have. The Death Penalty phase of this trial will start on january 3rd. And even with his life on the line, and despite the advice of his lawyers, dylann roof will represent himself in court. Mark, thanks.

Michelle obama looks back on her husbands time in the white house with an interview with oprah. And first on cbs this morning why mrs. Obama says his message, her husbands message, of hope, is so important. It is time to show you some of this mornings headlines. The New York Times reports that china suggests it has installed weapons on disputed island in the south china sea. Satellite images reportedly show antiaircraft guns and other weapons systems. Chinas Defense Ministry said any military hardware on the island is for selfprotection. Several countries claim territory in the region. A pentagon Spokesman Says chinas actions there are being watched very carefully. And the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports the university of Minnesota Football Team is boycotting all activities and refusing to practice. Its bowl game could now be at risk. The gophers players are protesting the schools decision to suspend ten teammates in connection with a Sexual Assault case. The University President and Athletic Director say they want to continue an open dialogue. Facebook is taking new steps this morning to control the spread of fake news. In the last three months of the president ial campaign, buzzfeed reports that people shared, commented on and liked more false election related articles in stories from major news outlets. Facebook announced just yesterday it will now use third party Fact Checkers, the network will also flag any articles ruled fake. Cbs news contributing editor Nick Thompson joins us against. Second day in a row at the table lucky us. Must be big. So tell us how big a deal is this . How important is it . Its huge about face i think it is a really big deal and i think theres a very important line at the end of the message that facebook put out yesterday which said these are the first things were introducing and were going to work until we think we have solved this problem. This is a big commitment for the company. It is a big deal. How did it come from its not a problem to its really up to the consumer that now uhoh houston we have a problem we need to do something. What happened . I think facebook was in denial that this is a problem. They werent really looking. They didnt really know about it and then donald trump was elected, and facebook said, wait a second. Did we have something to do with that . Most of the people at facebook, you know, arent personally supportive of donald trump. They saw this happen. They saw their role. And they said wait a second lets lets fix this. Not because we need to elect more democrats and fewer republicans but because we contributed to a somewhat toxic election and we shouldnt have that happen again. Do you think it will work . And how will they determine if its working. What are the metrics of success . So i think it will work on a subset of the public. And the subset of the problem is there is completely fake stories put out by fake people in macedonia and say things like pope endorses donald trump or Michael Phelps drops dead. Those stories which are completely false and baseless, i think those will be stopped. The harder question is how you stop polarization, filter bubbles, the spread of sort of mostly fake not authoritative news. Thats a bigger thing that facebook will deal with later. Well see how that goes. Now the sub seset that theyre tackling is going to be effective. Mark zuckerberg has long maintained facebook is not a media company. Is that changing. If you look at what theyre doing if a story is flagged by a lot of users and it is being shared, it then is sent to third party Fact Checkers and theres a little note appended that says third party Fact Checkers say this is false. Doesnt say Facebook Says its false and thats important because zuckerberg wants it to be a platform. Facebook does not want to have anything to do with the business itself of saying something is fake or true. They want other people to do it. Can they reduce the financial incentive for those doing it. Absolutely. A if they limit the number of clicks that the macedonian teams get that reduces it and they can also reduce the advertising revenue on those sites that theyre getting spikely. Thank you.

Its a necessary concept, and barack didnt just talk about hope because he thought it was just a nice slogan to get votes. I mean, he and i and so many believe that what else do you have if you dont have hope . Yeah. What do you give your kids if you cant give them hope. Our children respond to crises the way they see us respond.

They survived 48 hours trapped in a snow bank near the top of algonquin peak. At more than 5,000 feet it is the second highest mountain in new york state. In an interview you will only see on cbs this morning, Michelle Miller talks to the student about how the couple stayed alive long enough for rescuers to find them. She is in lake placid, new york. Michelle, good morning. Good morning. You can see that mountain behind me. This couple was supposed to be just on a day hike on sunday when all of a sudden a thick fog rolled in. They couldnt even see five feet in front of them. Thats when they took a wrong step and literally tumbled off the side of that mountain. We just started plummeting down into like endless snow. Theres no way up. Theres no way down. What goes through your mind . We were terrified. I think thats the only thing that i was thinking. It didnt feel real. Reporter Madison Popolizio and her boyfriend are experienced hikers. Their climb started out fine. But the next two days, trapped in a snow bank would be a brutal test of wills. I was freezing. The fall pushed all of the snow off my jacket into my gloves and my boots. I was covered in snow. Madison says she owes her life to blake. He looked after you. I told him i cant really feel my legs anymore. I cant really feel my feet. And his first instinct story was to take his bag that was full of art supplies, and to dump it out, and pull it around my legs so i could stay warm. Without him oh, without him i never would have made it. What did he say to you to keep you going . He told me how much he loves me. And what our life was going to be like when we got out. For two freezing days and nights rescuers searched almost around the clock in four feet of snow, including forest ranger scott von here. There was a lot worse weather coming. By that time madison said she and blake were hallucinating. Seeing and hearing things that werent there. Until they heard this. I looked at him and i said, did you hear that . He said, yeah, i heard that. And we both just started screaming. We couldnt see them. We heard the voice. Especially heard her voice. It just shot right through the air. It was like an angel coming for us. The first thing i can remember was them saying that were going to make it out of here. Whoo how are you . Are you feeling any pain . Blake is still in the hospital and could lose some toes to frostbite. We accepted we might lose some toes, fingers. I asked him if he would still think i was pretty if i didnt have any feet. Lose both your feet, both your legs, both your ampls, youll still be pretty. But she says they never considered the worst. We made an agreement early on when we got trapped that neither one of us could die because we couldnt leave the other one alone. And after that, it just wasnt an option. It wasnt a subject for us. It just wasnt. And that is the definition of a love story. You have to understand that maddie is having difficulty walking right now because of the frostbite to her feet. She may even have fractured teeth because of all the chattering she did on that mounta mountaintop. But she says the minute that blake is out of the hospital she is planning one heck of a reunion for all those forest rangers who risked their own lives to save them. Wow, michelle. What an incredible story. The human heart is a powerful thing. Now we can only hope they invite cbs to the wedding. Thats such an amazing story.

The response to a chemical leak that forced most residents in Corpus Christi, texas, to stop using the water. First, here is todays eye opener at 8 00. The white house is considering sanctions on senior russian intelligence officials and a proportional sizable response. They believe the cyberattacks are part of a larger russian espionage operation. Can you say Vladimir Putin is winning . If what he intended to do was create chaos, hes doing very well. Talked it over for all of two hours before deciding he was guilty of a lethal racist rampage.

President obama said he spoke directly to russian president Vladimir Putin about the hacking of Democratic Party emails. Officials tell cbs news that american intelligence agencies believe putin at some point was directly involved in hacking to disrupt the election. They believe putin approved revealing information stolen from democrats. In an interview with npr, the president said there would be consequences. I think there is no doubt that when any Foreign Government tries to impact the integrity of our elections that we need to take action. And we will at a time and place of our own choosing. Some of it may be explicit and publicized. Some of it may not be. But mr. Putin is well aware of my feelings about this because i spoke to him directly about it. Sources tell our Margaret Brennan that the meeting took place on the sidelines of the september g20 summit in china. The 90minute meeting is described as blunt and candid. The president warned putin he did not want to launch a cyberarms race, but he also said that america would retaliate. U. S. Officials tell cbs news that investigators also believe putin wanted at first to damage Hillary Clinton and inject chaos and doubt into the election. Our sources say it was an added bonus to russia that donald trump became the republican nominee. The president elect has repeatedly questioned the conclusion that russia carried out the hack. President obama holds a News Conference this morning before going on vacation to hawaii. Cbs news will bring it to you at 11 15 pacific time right here on cbs.

Israel captured it from jordan in the 1967 war. Mr. Trump and friedman have suggested the American Embassy in israel will be moved from tel aviv to jerusalem. That would break with longstanding United States foreign policy. The basketball world is remembering a beloved broadcaster, craig sager. The Golden State Warriors honored sager last night during a moment of joy, they called it. Other nba teams observed a moment of silence. The long time court side reporter died yesterday after a public fight against cancer. He was only 65 years old. Late commissioner adam silver called sager a true original and an essential voice. Dana jacobson recently interviewed sager and joins us this morning. He was one of the good guys. He was. A pleasure to call him a colleague. His eye popping suits and memorable interviews made craig sager a fixture on the nba games for 26 seasons. His Lasting Legacy will be for something he did off the court. His refusal to let leukemia sideline him. The recipient of the jimmy v. Award for perseverance, craig sager when he appeared at the espies this summer, he knew he may have just months to live. Time is something that cannot be bought. It cannot be wagered with god. And it is not an endless supply. Time is simply how you live your life. Just weeks later, sager had his third bone marrow transplant, unwilling to give up his fight against acute myeloid leukemia. He spoke with cbs this morning in september. I feel like i am fighting for everybody who has cancer. His friends and colleagues paid tribute. All of us go on to die, but very few of us live. Craig sager lived a great life. Sager first announced his diagnosis in april 2014. In less than a year, he was working court side again. The rare cancer beaten into remission. Doing what youre doing, we got no excuses. Even greg popovich, the San Antonio Spurs coach, was moved. This is the first time ive enjoyed doing this ridiculous interview were required to do just because youre here and youre back with us. Welcome back. Sagers outrageous outfits endeared him to fans and players who didnt shy away from some good natured ribbing. Take this outfit home and you burn it. Where did that come from . The outfits . Something ive always been. Always lively. The wardrobe choices were window dressing to a hall of fame career. I did recognize you right away. I thought you were the good humor ice cream man. One of his big scoops came in 1974 when a trench coat wearing 22yearold sager managed to get on the field as hank aarons became baseballs home run king. Sometimes greater things are expected from those who are absent. Sager was an nba icon, but his first chance to work a finals game came only this year. Sports are in my soul. Something that, you know, i want to be part of and it very, very well helps my therapy. Craig sager is survived by his wife stacy and five children. Last night his son craig jr. Tweeted, we packed a lifetime into the 28 years together. Pay it forward, time. Sagerstrong. So many memories that friends shared with me, he made you feel like you were the most important person in the room, no matter who you were. I worked in kansas city, competing stations way back in the day. He was a knockout even then with local sports. Everybody knew who craig sager was. So sorry to hear this news. He made his mark on the world. Watching him fight and the way that he wouldnt use it as an excuse is really just remarkable. Live with courage and die with courage. Best suits in the business. No doubt about it. Thank you, dana. Thank you very much. Leaders in Corpus Christi say someone will be held accountable for contaminating the water.

Residents in outlying parts of Corpus Christi have to have the all clear this morning to use their water again. Officials say between three and 24 gallons of a potentially harmful chemical leaked into the water supply. They told all residents to avoid tap water for any use. That led to long lines of bottled water. Manuel, good morning. Good morning. Usually this Sandwich Shop would be busy, getting ready for the breakfast rush, but as you can see, it is empty. And even though the tap water is flowing right now, and it looks okay, this business and many others here cannot reopen until the city says this water is safe. What do we want . Clean water. Some people in Corpus Christi, texas, say theyre battling against chemicals many of them have never heard of. There were two type of chemicals and im not the chemical expert, so i relied on several people. Dan mcqueen is mayor of the city of more than 320,000. We dont think it was introduced to anybody in our city other than the industrial district. On wednesday, workers at ergon asphalt and emulsions noticed a sheen and alerted the city. The citys warning prompted a rush at grocery stores. Carol madden said she could only take home three liters. Well, we woke up and there was a ban on using all water, no washing your hands, brushing your teeth, taking a shower. Isabella says she and other members of the community have been meeting since the citys last water issue happened back in may. Everybody is running around trying to collect water. This is a huge failure of providing Good Services for the community. I think people are wondering whether the city can keep the water safe. Let me clarify something. This was not a water boil. This was a third party that has been identified and i believe it has been in the press so far and we will hold them accountable, but they contaminated our water supply. What can the city do to prevent this type of contamination from happening again . My number one concern right now is the public is safe, we can get you guys get the city back operating again. Ergon sued a Third Party Contractor over the contamination but the contractor denied responsibility. In the meantime, officials here are reportedly looking into whether other chemicals may be in the water. But so far there have been no reported illnesses and no word that anyone has actually ingested tainted water. Alex . Manuel, thanks.

A young woman is serving 31 years in prison for murdering a toddler at a day care. The former teachers assistant confessed after a long interrogation by investigators. Despite that, she has maintained her innocence for several years. On tomorrows 48 hours Erin Moriarty reports on new potential evidence that could set the woman free. Here is a preview. Are you ready to fight . Reporter there is a battle in lake county, illinois, to overturn melissa calusinski. Melissa is innocent and should be freed now. Reporter in 2011, the 25yearold teachers assistant was convicted of murdering this toddler at a chicago day care center. I had nothing to do with it and im going to keep continuing to say that. Reporter but melissa was the last one with ben in january 2009 before his death. The pathologist who did the autopsy said that the child had suffered massive bleeding in his head and a Skull Fracture on the day he died. Yet, ben did not have any cuts or obvious wounds. I am not the killer. Reporter the interrogation was grueling. Melissa told police over and over again she didnt do it. 79 times. I never put my hands on him. Reporter after nine hours, she confessed. Show us how hard you threw him on the ground. I went like that. Reporter while melissa says she was pressured into confessing, lake county assistant states attorney Stephen Scheller says its clear she is guilty. Pchild internallily and its clear she killed benjamin. Reporter defense experts say the states medical evidence was wrong that, in fact, it was an old injury that contributed to ben kingans death. What is more, they claim that clear xrays found after melissas conviction proved the child did not have a Skull Fracture either. There is definitely no Skull Fracture here. Reporter and melissas defense attorney Kathleen Zellner says that fact was deliberately kept from Defense Attorneys by manipulating the xrays given to them before trial. This is the original. That is the original. This is what the defense team was given. This is what the defense team was given. Reporter why would someone want to do that . To obscure whether there was a skull fra you. Reporter she also charges that a key witness for the state, pathologist dr. Manny montez, was not truthful when he testified at trial, that he had felt the fracture with his own hands. He touched it. He looked at it. It was unbelievable what he saw the only problem is he never saw any of it. Reporter prosecutors turn by the system that their trial witness with dr. Montez and denied that anyone manipulated evidence. But this fall there was a new hearing. What did the judge decide . Erin moriarty is with us now. Good morning. Why the question the child had a Skull Fracture so significant . I think its actually everything. If there was a Skull Fracture that is really the only evidence that a murder occurred. That is the best evidence that there was a deliberate act. If there was no Skull Fracture, then the medical experts ive spoken to say they cant even say there was a deliberate act. And to that point, last year, because these clear xrays came up that show no Skull Fracture, the cause of death was changed last year to from homicide to undetermined. So when you have a woman sitting in prison when the medical experts cant agree a murder occurred. You said she is getting a new hearing. How unusual is that . Very unusual. And that is because this is why we stay on the story. It seems like every year, there is more and more evidence coming up that either she didnt do it, definitely she didnt do it, but maybe there was no murder at all . But she confessed. I dont understand. How do you confess . I know you have a problem with this, gayle. I do. Number one, she has a low verbal i. Q. And she has a hard time understanding what people are saying and a hard time expressing herself. It was a long interrogation. It was nine hours. She told me afterwards, trust me, i really went after on this, she told me afterwards she felt she had to to get out of the room. A tragic story that is not yet concluded. No. Erin, thanks for that. You can see her full report the fight for melissa on 48 hours tomorrow night on cbs. Common is in the green room when we come back.

What im trying to say is what im trying to say is that we that love is important. That black humanity is important. Humanity is important. I really call it black america because it is not just only about black people, but it is talking about the experience, the black experience and trying to express that, that humanity, fatherhood, i talk about my father and our relationship, or talk about love and unfamiliar or talk about the struggles that black people have been through, it is just showing that. And i feel like right now, at a time where we got so much going on in the world, we really got to relate to each other as human beings. So just really about showing that humanity. You also say you were inspired by tonahese coates and hamilton. It showed me, like, you can be out there doing something conscious and aware and something about bringing people together and it be at a high level. When i read between the world and me, i was, like, wow, this is like i saw hamilton, i saw it again last night. Lucky you. My fourth time. Lucky, lucky, lucky you. For me it was like nothing ive seen before. It was a message of pbringing people together. It made me get inspired.

Kings birthday to be a national holiday, i used to play that as a little kid. And didnt even know i knew it was about dr. King, i didnt know it was going towards that message. For me to have him on, a song called black america again, where i have james brown talking, and, you know, were talking about rewriting the black american story, it was just, like a heavy moment. I cant believe this. I used to have him sitting there in the studio, singing and deciding what we were about to write about. You teamed up with amy duverney. You said you wanted to write something for this piece. Why . Im passionate about changing this epidemic of mass incarceration. I see how much it affects family, not just black and brown family, but American People all over. She has a tendency to do work, work that shifts the human spirit. Brings up conversations.

And i finally, you know, convinced her. And caught her. The president s birthday party. You wrote this album before the election happened. Yes. And it is coming out at a moment where there is deep divide. What is your message to the people listening to the album at the time. Black and white. This project, i dont make art for one color or nationality. I make it for all people, really. My message is about spirituality. More than any person who is running the government, we got to be in tune with ourselves and that message is in that music about loving each other. About respecting women. I have a song called the day women took over. The world could be better if we just let that energy, that love energy flow that comes from women. You would like the day women took over, wouldnt you . Absolutely. You also have said that your diet helps you as a rapper. It does. Looking good. Thank you. I love being up here with you three. Youre very important people.

But are there times you want to say, dude, what are you doing . At trump tower, meeting with donald trump. What do you say or think about that .

I particularly if his intention was really what he said it was, to help people about helping the issues in chicago, then, you know, i got to say, hey, if thats his intention, i respect that. I dont think necessarily thats not anything i would particularly do, and im able to disagree with kanye and be, like, look, thats not my move. Let me know why you did that and well go from there. But were still thats my brother no matter what. I think hes for the i think hes out to help people. You think hes well intentioned. Common, you are one of most generous artists on the stage today.
