The president s Political Team sent out shock waves. Critics call the move nixonian. Fox news correspondent Caroline Shively joins us with more. Good evening. Reporter in this testimony james comey flatout called the president a liar. I remember thinking this is a very disturbing development. Reporter james comey told lawmakers he decided to start making written notes after each encounter he had with President Trump. I was honestly concerned he might lie about the nature of our meeting so i thought it really important to document. Reporter from those notes comey recalled at the present time pressing for loyalty which the fbi director read as toe the trump line or risk losing his job. He also detailed a private meeting in which he said he hoped investigators would go easy on mike flynn, the National Security advisor who had resigned amid allegations he mid less the government. I took it as a direction. I took it as this is way wants me to do. Reporter testimony damaging to the president but damaging to comey, too. At one point the former director admitted passing along information to a friend he knew would leak it to the press in order to provoke the Justice Department to appoint a special counsel. We will leave it to the appropriate authorities to determine whether these leaks should be investigated along with all the others that are being investigated. Reporter todays hearing is over but members of the Senate Intelligence Committee Say they will stick with this investigation for as long as it takes. Caroline, thank you so much. And we have more. Joining us now is our political analyst brian sobel. He joins us live from our sister station in l. A. Briang to have you with us. Good to be here. Lets talk about mr. Comey out of the box here. He had a lot thrown at him the past month. How did he do today . Well, you know, if you were on one side of the aisle, you thought he did very well. If you were on the other side of the aisle, you thought maybe he didnt do so well, frank. But at the end of the day i thought he held his own. Tough questioning for better than two hours. And i think at the end of the day the American People learned a whole lot about where he is on both this potential investigation thats been ongoing and what may be occurring in the future. Well, we did learn a lot, brian. Lets start with the reaction to the fact that mr. Comey felt it was important to take detailed notes after each of his meetings or encounters with the president. What does that tell you . Well, i think there was a basic distrust of the president from james comey, and therefore he document those meetings. He alluded to the fact that he had not done the same when he had met with president barack obama. So for whatever reason he thought he needed to document things. And i find that curious, but it was what he felt he needed to do. And mr. Comey also admitted to releasing information through a law professor to ultimately get what he got today, a public hearing. Can he face charges for that, leaking that information . Well, we will have to see. Leaking information is against the law, and in this case, he leaked information relative to meetings he had with the president. Somebody else will have to judge the enormity of that, or look thereof, but at the end of the day, obviously washington is a city of leakers. And now you find out that the head of the fbi well, the former head of the fbi, after he was head of the fbi then, also leaked himself. So its not a good story, frank. How about with respect to tapes . Comey said today, lordy, i hope there are tapes. The pressure on now the white house to produce tapes if they even exist . Well, it was the president himself who referred to a taping system or potentially tapes. If theres a taping system, i think eventually perhaps muller will get his hands on them and listen for himself, and, of course, from comeys point of view, he thinks it exonerates him in terms of what he said during those discussions with the president. So it is one more curveball in this whole thing. And President Trumps attorney denied much of this. How does the president spin this in the next 24 hours, and can he ultimately face those obstruction charges that they have been talking about . Well, it is a great question, and i think how he has to spin it is that you heard nothing today that was a crime, per say. There is the allusion to potential of justice, but that is all going to come out in the wash, as they say. I think for President Trump he is going to say, hey, nothing nobody laid a glove on me. Now, of course this is a much bigger story. Whether people, russians, for example, worked with associates of donald trump, thats a whole other story. But i think even the former fbi director made it clear that donald trump was not the subject of the investigation. Well, it is far from over. Brian sobel from our sister station down in l. A. , thanks for joining us. We appreciate it. Youre very welcome. Have a great day. Our coverage of james comeys testimony at ktvu. Com.

In oakland the main tenant charged in the deadly ghost ship warehouse fire made his first appearance. Derick almena did not enter a plea. He showed no visible emotion and did not make eye contact with people in the gallery including relatives of victims. Attorneys asked the judge to delay the case for a week to allow the second drveghts max harris, to be the second defendant, max harris, to be transported to be booked. Despite the strong emotions, we do not feel that the public goodwill be served by prosecuting our client. This creates a distraction so that the local government doesnt have to address the fundamental issue of Housing Quality and fire safety that will continue to be a problem in this community. They have not addressed their failings. The Defense Attorneys and almenas wife plan to address the media more extensively tomorrow at a News Conference in san francisco. They say they will discuss legal theories for almenas defense and the circumstances that, quote, lend themselves to our clients innocence. A fire at an emeryville Housing Project for the second time in less than a year. Officials released photos in hopes of landing a suspect behind bars. Reporter frank, there were two fires that took down the intersection, retail, and Housing Construction project here in the last year. Both are considered arson. But atf and police wont say if it is the same arsonist behind both. On may 13th the intersection construction project went up in flames for a second time. This time, however, Surveillance Video captured the suspect, a person dressed in black and appearing to case the site out before the fire. The video showed a suspect canvassing the building prior to the fire and then entering into the building. The suspect was wearing a jacket with a hood, carrying a backpack, and riding a bicycle. Reporter now, this fire has similarities to the fire destructive fire back on july 6th, 2016. Both times the Building Construction was nearly 50 complete. Witnesses saw an unauthorized person at the scene before the fire. The atf lab is determining if an accelerant was used. Atf is offering a 25,000 reward for the july 6th and another one for the may 13th fire. The Building Developer is also offering a 50,000 reward for information leading to the arsonist. Now, atf says that the first fire is still under investigation. At this time they only have the one suspect for the may 13th fire. Lee, were there any security guards on hand at the time of the fire . Reporter yes, after the july 6th fire, the Building Developer did hire more security guards, added more security cameras, but were told that the arsonist may have gotten past an area where the security guards were not at the time. All right, lee martinez live in emeryville, thank you. Up next, the search for a gunman continues after an Early Morning shooting in sunnyvale. Details on the victims condition.

A safe place in oakland provides intervention strategies. We have new information. A 15yearold boy has died after a friend shot him with a pellet rifle this morning. It happened in antioch. Officers responding to the incident just before 10 00 this morning say he had a small wound on his chest. He died at the hospital a short time later. Police say everyone at the scene cooperated with the investigation. A troubling discovery in fremont has parents at one school checking with their healthcare provider, this after a student found a die bettic lance used to cut the skin. Jesse gary has more on this troubling story. Jesse. Reporter School Officials say this involves a second and a third grade student, one of whom found a lancet outside and picks it up. Take a look at our video. A couple days later the boy told officials he poked at least one other student with the device. It looks something similar to these, which is used to cut the skin so a diabetic can check his or her blood sugar levels. Parents and the nurse were notified. An investigation was launched where it was determined a dozen students had been poked. Tensions escalated culminating with the principal notifying parents about the incident that now involves 12 students. I think the principal used good judgment in saying is im going to give a phone message to all parents, let them know what happened. Chances are for any organism to survive period of time beyond minutes, hours, maybe in the worstcase scenario, hepatitis b, is very unlikely. Reporter one doctor says the risk is extremely low but additional testing should be done in two or three months to be absolutely certain that students that were poked have already students that were poked have already been tested but he says check them gang in two to three months just to be sure. He strongly recommends that people using these devices dispose of them properly. Take them to a nearby hospital if you dont have disposal apparatus at your house. Live in fremont, jesse gary, ktvu fox 2 news. Police in the south bay are investigating an Early Morning homicide, that Investigation Underway in sunnyvale right now. Christien kafton has the very latest on what police are saying about the shooting and the hunt for suspects. Reporter investigators are looking into a double shooting here in sunnyvale.

Police say the men were involved in some kind of an argument in the parking lot and then they were targeted. Right now were investigating to determine what exactly occurred. It appeared to be some type of altercation in the parking lot. We dont know who they were arguing w. They were obviously shot at by the people they were arguing w. Thats part of our investigation, trying to determine would they are. Reporter investigators say they are speaking with witnesses and looking at nearby businesses to see if their cameras may have captured video of the incident. Investigators are also asking anyone with any information in this case to contact them. In sunny vail, christien kafton, ktvu fox 2 news. It was technically an off day for the warriors and cavs, but theres no such thing as an off day when youre in the nba championship series. Ive got a live report coming up from cleveland. Pg e learned a tragic lesson we can never forget. This gas pipeline ruptured in san bruno. The explosion and fire killed eight people. Pg e was convicted of six felony charges including five violations of the u. S. Pipeline safety act and obstructing an ntsb investigation. Pg e was fined, placed under an outside monitor, given five years of probation, and required to perform 10,000 hours of community service. We are deeply sorry. We failed our customers in san bruno. While an apology alone will never be enough, actions can make pg e safer. And thats why weve replaced hundreds of miles of gas pipeline, adopted new Leak Detection technology that is onethousand times more sensitive, and built a stateoftheart gas operations center. We can never forget what happened in san bruno. Thats why were working every day to make pg e the safest Energy Company in the nation. All eyes on cleveland tomorrow night as the warriors and cavs go at it for game four. The ws just a win away from a title. A little work to do. First live to cleveland where joe fonzi is standing by. We should say, joe, its not over yet, right . Reporter no, if you start thinking its over, thats about the absolute wrong thing that you should be doing. But you are right, it was quite a struggle last night. The cavs gave the warriors all they had, and the warriors with stood that challenge. At this point in the year you really dont need any practice, but both teams were actually out on the Practice Court today, more working on the kinks from a very physical and demanding game last night. Its more about making tweaks. But throughout this entire playoff time, the topic of the warriors going through it perfect keeps getting brought up because nobody else has ever gotten this far. Obviously you dont want to talk about that until that last game, that last game that would make you perfect is the one game at a time, proverbial one game at a time that teams talk about. That is the one tomorrow night that could wrap things up for the warriors. So now theyre happy to talk about that topic. The only reason it came up is just because we want to win this next game. We win that, its 160. It definitely wasnt one of those things where its a goal, like, hey, lets go into the playoffs and go 160. Thats too much on the mind. 160 means were champs. It wasnt a goal of ours to start the post season, but thou that its attainable, we have our eyes set on it. In the end you just want to win. The other stuff doesnt really matter. People can talk about it in a historical context, but just get it done, win the series and let everybody else talk. Reporter now, if you are the cavs, you have to be asking yourselves after last night, what do you have to do to beat these guys . They had a sixpoint lead and the ball with less than two and a half minutes to play in the game, and all the warriors did then was go on an 110 run kevin durant scoring seven, steph curry scoring four, and they end up beating the cavaliers to take the lead. The cavs know the math. They know they cant win four games in one night. They know that they have to do the proverbial one game at a time. This is as do or die as possible as i have ever faced in my career. We understand whats at stake. The whole entire season. Theres really no other decision other than to leave it all out there. Its been a long season, and you hate for it to end this way. So mentally and physically ive got to prepare myself for that. One game at a time. One game at a time. Win the game in front of you. Win friday. Win friday. Thats how we have to look at it. We felt like game three was do or die. We have to look at tomorrow the same way. I would be very surprised if we dont come out and play well. We all heard all the jokes about cleveland for all those years. They hadnt won a major sports championship since 1964 until the cavs changed that. We thought we would just show something you pleasant on a nice cleveland evening. That is the statue of freedom. If you are familiar with cleveland, you know where we are. We will not be here tomorrow night. The warriors will be trying to wrap things up tomorrow night in game four and set nba history by being the first team ever to sweep through the playoffs and go 160. Until then, reporting live from cleveland, im joe fonzi. Back to you gaze in the studio. A pretty sight, joe. A lot of pride on the line. Remember the cavs had only lost one game during the playoffs. Of course, the warriors are undefeated, and lebron, defending champs, whatever theyve got, theyre going to empty their tank tomorrow night. Reporter and you wonder if they didnt already do that last night. I dont think theres any question about the fact that the two best teams in the nba are meeting for the finals. This just may be an indication of how much bet tear warriors are than anybody else in the nba. The cavs knew this is the same number that they were last year at this time, that is last night, down two games to none, and then the warriors left here last year with a 31 lead. We know what the cavs did after that. So there was a sense among the cavaliers and their fans that it could be done again. The arena was pretty riled up, and then they had that lead with two and a half minutes to go and feel like, were getting it done. And ive never seen a reversal in a big game in attitude in an arena more magnified than it was last night. People were anticipating a win. All of a sudden a sixpoint game is a fourpoint game, now its a twopoint game, now were behind. How did it happen . It all happened in two and a half minutes. Then they were out of there with their heads down. Ive never seen in a big game as quick a reversal as we saw in the attitude. If you talk to a few falcon fans in that super bowl last year they may argue. That but all good. We will hope for a big win. Cleveland looks mighty pretty behind you. Good stuff. Reporter it feels awful nice right now, too. Thanks, joe. Coming up, exit polls show an upset brewing in the united kingdoms general election. What led to the potential governmental shakeup. And next, we will update you on reaction following the testimony of former fbi director james comey. Plus, were going to sit down with a former chairman of the California Republican party to get his take. Stay right there. Isaac hou has mastered gravity defying moves to amaze his audience. Great show. Here you go. Now hes added a new routine. Making depositing a check seem so effortless. Easy to use chase technology, for whatever youre trying to master. Isaac, are you ready . Yeah. Chase. So you can. Back to our top story, former fbi director james comey telling the committee under oath ebels the president fired him because of the russia investigation. Form the former director also said President Trump asked for his loyalty in exchange for keeping his job with the fbi, something the president s personal attorney later denied. My common sense told me that what was going on either he had concluded or someone had told him that you didnt youve already asked comey to stay and you didnt get anything for it, and that the dinner was an effort to build a relationship, in fact, he asked specifically of loyalty in the context of asking me to stay. Reporter the president also never told mr. Comey, quote, i need loyalty, i expect loyalty, close quote. He never said it in form, and he never set in substance. President trumps attorney also denied that the president pressured comey to stop investigating anyone, including former National Security advisor michael flynn. Former chairman of the California Republican party, tom, i know youre also an attorney so lets talk about comeys testimony from a legal standpoint. From a legal standpoint he helped trump a lot. Number one he put an end to this notion that there was collusion. He admits, no evidence. Helpful. He also said trump didnt pressure him on russia at all. Helpful. But then comey undercut himself by calling himself hopelessly biased in other ways that i was frankly astonished. I think he ruined any legal case against trump. You mentioned in other ways some of the congressional leaders were asking, so why didnt you tell President Trump that what he was saying or asking was wrong, why didnt you call him out on any wrong doing during that private discussion, and he kind of said smee said i dont know one time. And he came off as a weak human being. In reality it was actually much worse than that. He kept undermining his own credibility. First, hopelessly biased. Well, hopelessly biased witnesses dont go anywhere. Then he admitted to leaking information. He was initially asked were you the source of any leaks and he said no. Later he was forced to admit that he leaked government documents. And thats probably illegal. Why did he leak it . To save his own face. So he is, in fact, hopelessly biased. So its as a legal matter, no russia collusion. Thats not even a crime anyway. Nothing on trump saying stop the investigation on russia. The only issue was hope. And even comey in his testimony said at one point, well, hope is all i could do. Oh, so youre allowed to hope, but trump cant. So you talk about the illegal when it comes to comey trying to clear his name and leaking those documents with a law professor friend of his. What are the legal ramifications of that . Well, as a practical matter, Lindsey Graham said yesterday that mueller must not think anything of obstruction or he wouldnt have let comey go out there and testify. There are several things. The leaked documents. Also that he caved to Loretta Lynch saying i want you to use matter and not investigation. Hes admitted hopelessly biased, admitted to breaking the law, but in the short term if we go to politics he landed a heavy punch by saying i think i did this because i thought trump maybe would lie. He got his revenge. A lot of people are pointing to the fact of the memos that he had, the discussions that he had with President Trump and the president saying, you know, i hope you see this through, i hope you let this go, i hope, i hope. Do you find anything wrong with that . I mean i know a lot of people are talking about possible obstruction of justice, and comey alluded to that saying there might be an investigation, so whats next for President Trump . Do you find anything wrong with that . Well again, trump shouldnt have said that. But i think hes more hand fisted than intent. But comey undermined himself. Remember, james comey, they were investigating hillary, really. He brought here in for questioning. He did not order a transcript of her comments. First of all thats ridiculous. Which meant she cannot be brought up on lying to the fbi because theres no record. But do you think the president was wrong for saying what he said . If i was the Vice President the United States, i wouldnt say can you let this go in a oneonone meeting. However, every president , since the beginning of time, when dealing with the Justice Department, has made similar comments. They just havent reached out. J. Edgar hoover had his fights with a lot of white houses. Obama just did it through the Justice Department. Trump needs to be quiet about this thing. He needs to move on from it. Comey got his revenge, but its obvious that hes a disgruntled exnnemployee. Well, we will have to see what happens with President Trump, because keeping quiet is not in his genes. Thank you, tom. Always a pleasure to have you here. Thanks, guys. Voting results are trickling in in the united kingdoms general election, the brits electing a new government and possibly a new Prime Minister. Early exit polls show it is a much close erase than expected. Current Prime Minister theresa may has been a clear favorite but the polls have tightened following the deadly attacks over the past few weeks. Reporter voters throughout the u. K. Arriving to a heavy Police Presence as polls opened, security the major issue following three deadly terror attacks since march. Leaders of the major party urging supporters to ignore the heightened threat and come to the polls. We are focused on getting out the vote. Im very proud of our campaign. Reporter the vote comes as police in london continue hunting down possible accomplices in last weekends attack, Prime Minister teresa may reminding voters of the threat. Serving in government is a huge honor. But it is also a great responsibility. As that responsibility is greater now than it ever has been. Because our country is facing great challenges. Reporter the Prime Minister called the election following the surprise vote to leave the european union.

Fossils uncovered in africa are rewriting our anthropology books. Bones were unearthed dating our species back some 300,000 years. Thats over 100,000 years older than any other nozzles that have been discovered. Joining us is professor white out of san joses department of anthropology. Thanks for being with us. Youre welcome. And tell us how big a discovery is this . Well, its huge. Basically what it has done is it has possibly set back our species, the sapiens a couple hundred thousand years. The other thing why it is huge is to morocco, which means basically what were is having more of a full african origin rather than just the east african origin. This perhaps suggests that there are fossils all over africa, but weve focused so much on the Great Rift Valley that the others have not yet been discovered. Tell us what they have found and how similar are humans today to our ancestors many, many years ago. Well what they found was a set of skulls, but some of the most interesting things are that the jaw looks quite like ours. So we have like a triangular shape on our chin that gives us what we call the mental imminence. This we dont see until we get to homosapiens. They also have a very flat face. Their face is kind of tucked underneath the cranial vault, the brain case. And what they have, its on the way there. So it is not jutting out like we zion our earlier humans. If this individual was walking down the street we probably would think thats a very strong, robust individual, but not that it was a different species. I know, i read an article that said if you saw him on a new york subway you wouldnt think a thing. How do they figure out how old the bones are . Whats the process for that . Well, they did a huge number of dating techniques for these remains. The most important is thermal lum lumenessence that they gave. You dont ever date the actual fossil so it is the soil that is being dated or the rock that is being dated. And it is a radioactive dating which means it is an absolute date rather than something that is older or younger, but really a date that is going to have a very specific date with just a little bit of flexibility. Well, it is fascinating, the find, and lord knows theres probably more out there. So they will continue to dig. Elizabeth weiss, anthropologist, thank you so much. Thank you. Rain is back in the forecast. How long it will last . Meteorologist mark tamayo is monitoring it for us. Still a few light showers paying us a visit. Our live camera looking out toward mount diablo. It feels a bit muggy out there. We have kind of a southerly flow setting up transporting mild air back into the bay area. Here is the radar over the past 12 hours.

Even if you are not seeing green here, there is a chance you could still have some mist or some drizzle up there. Santa rosa the most recent observation reporting light rain but no green to report. Still light rain in portions of the north bay and at least some drizzle around the bay itself. There is the south bay perspective closer to san jose and morgan hill. As far as current numbers, temperatures ranging from the upper 50s through the 60s. The warmest locations around 70 out toward concord, fairfield, and san jose 70 degrees.

Not a big change out there for your friday, but we are expecting more sunshine in case you missed the sunshine today. We will go ahead and expand the view. This is what were watching as we head into the weekend. This will be moving into northern california. With that its going to cool things off into saturday and sunday and also bring in a few extra clouds, especially for saturday morning. Some of the forecast models hinting at maybe a few saturday morning sprinkles but i think the best chance will be to the north of the bay. Here we are tomorrow starting out the day with some clouds. Skies become partly sunny. Notice this action to our north. We will take this into weekend. Starting out saturday morning lots of clouds and some rain to the north of the bay area around eureka, cape mendocino. There could be enough moisture, a slight chance of a sprinkle saturday morning but the main impacts, a few extra clouds and cooler temperatures. Sunday not much of a change in temperatures but if you want the warming trend, we will gradually warm up those numbers into early next week. Temperatures will be in the 60s to the 70s out there. Santa rosa 73. Oakland 69. Pacifica 61. Hayward checking in 70. Some more neighborhoods. For your friday, san jose 7 2, Half Moon Bay 62 degrees.

He gets invited to a lot of parties. He knows hes a pretty big deal. How could you not love him . Jurors in the bill cosby Sexual Assault trail heard the actors own words acknowledging to police that he drugged and fondled his accuser. His statements were made during an interview with police more than a decade ago and was read into the court record. As Michelle Chavez reports during the interview the comedian said he had a romantic relationship with the accuser, something she denies. Reporter one of the key elements on day four of this trial was a transcript from a Police Interview in which cosby admitted to giving pills and fondling his accuser andrea constand. That interview taking place in 2005, cosby telling his investigators he gave her one that have benadryl pills to help her relax but says she didnt show any adverse effects and never objected to his advances. Constand said she never consented and said the pills made her unable to fight off cosby. It is important to note there is a oneyear gap between the alleged crime and cosbys interview with police. Constand said thats because she was intimidated by cosbys celebrity status.
