Notice provide immediate assistance if more ebola cases arise here in this country. Sara joining us from dallas. In addition to the developments we talked about. The cdc is planning to issue new
Guidelines Regarding Health
workers and protective clothing. When will we hear the guidelines . Reporter well, were waiting to find out when we will hear them. Originally we were expecting them over the weekend. They didnt come. What were expecting them to say is all skin needs to be is covered, there need to be a dressing room set up, and where people can robe and disrobe coming in and going out of the isolation unit. Were expecting them to recommend implementing a buddy system. Someone to john ke, you know, k eye on each other. As well as more specialized training in how to take off that gear. That was one area they were looking at in this case. Meanwhile authorities enjoyed a bit of a positive moment today in that announcement of those 43 had cleared the watch list. Were expecting one more to clear at some point this morning. We caution theyre not out of the woods yet. There are still 120 people who had some type of contact with the three ebola patients that are still being monitored. The all clear date for the entire list is november 7th. So cautiously optimistic at this point, tamron, as officials keep an eye on the situation here. Among those who were cleared today, that includes thomas eric duncans fiance, her family, and five school kids who will return to dallas area schools this week. Authorities, you know, asking parents to be leaders in this situation. To demonstrate to their children there is nothing to be afraid of. That the science says only a person who is actively symptomatic can infect another person. So a plea and a lesson to everyone here in dallas the
Dallas County
judge steady saying that how people are treated as they emerge from the see lugs seclusion will be a defining moment for the city. Sara, in addition, obviously to the information we see just what is a very sad situation with thomas eric duncans friends and family members. His fiance coming back to nothing as reported after their home was basically torn apart in an abundance of caution to remove everything from the home. Miss vitaminsons family saying that the allegations that she was irresponsible as a nurse and getting on the flight those allegations have been painful and hurtful to her as shes now in stable condition and hopefully recovering soon. Yeah. That is true. You know, hopefully when miss vinson recovers and now louise is leaving eye laisolation, it doesnt mean life is 100 back to normal or perfect. Theres a ways to go. In the case of duncans fiance shes going to spend a few more days shes been and she and her family are going to move to a new home provided by the city and anonymous donors in dallas. We dont know the exact location. We know its a
Single Family
home in dallas. And those donors, the generous people here in dallas working to replace the belongings that were destroyed. Youll remember the mattresses, less th linens, towels had to be destroyed. They were able to hang on to family photographs and a bible that has meaning to them. Everything else needs to be replaced. I talked to one city official yesterday who assured me theyre not going to leave the family on their own to pick up the pieces. Theyre going to help them start over. Thats great news to hear that part of the story. Thank you very much. Turning to the investigation to the shooting death of
Michael Brown
by
Police Officer
darrin wilson. A
Government Official
confirmed to nbc news that forensic tests show browns blood was found on officer wilsons gun, uniform, and inside his police car. That forensic evidence is set to be consistent with wilsons description of what happened. There were portions of the grand jury testimony made public for the first time over the weekend. Wilson claims there was a struggle inside his police suv and said he feared for his life. Also, in that testimony wilson told investigators that brown shoved and punched him repeatedly and that brown reached for the officers gun. Thats when the officer said he fired the two initial shots. His account contradict statements from eye witnesses, many of whom maintained that brown was retreating and had his hands up when he was shot and killed. The new revelations sparked anger in ferguson. A pastor of flood river church said in an email, quote, if theres a nonindictment i think youll see a immediate uproar. I dont think people have seen the amount of unrest and anger that will come if theres a nonindictment. John handled many high profile cases including the b. A. R. T. Police shooting of oscar graham, and rodney king case. Lets go down a little bit of the information from the testimony from the officer. First off the headline over the weekend. The officer saying he feared for his life. That is, i think, what anyone would expect to come from his testimony. But how does the jury juxtaposition what he was saying with what weve heard from a number of eye witnesses . I think the important part is whether or not there was a fight at the car. In the car. Regardless of who started it. If theres a fight going on, the officer essential has a right to respond to that and use whatever force is reasonable. The question then becomes once
Michael Brown
left the car, then the officer has a question of whether or not hes pursuing a felon. If hes pursuing a felon he probably can use deadly force. If
Michael Brown
stopped and turned around and had his hands up, then the officer cannot and should not have shot him. Thats where the criminal conduct will take place if theres going to be there at all. That, to me, would be a manslaughter type of activity charge that can be filed. If theres a fight at the car, the officer has a right to defend himself regardless of who started it. He can use deadly force in the course of that. The issue, frankly, is going to be was there a break in the time between the first shot fired and the latter shots . And had
Michael Brown
stopped and turned around aput his hand up. If thats true, that seems its a criminal conduct. It would not be it would negate all that the argument that the officer has at the beginning. But keep in mind, an officer has a right to use deadly force when he thinks his life is in danger. Thats the case when theres a confrontation, a physical fight between an officer and non
Police Officer
. In the
New York Times
article that said, and i pointed out the forensic test show that mr. Browns blood was on the gun as well as on the interior door panel and on officer wilsons uniform. What questions would you ask regarding that forensic information . Well, i think what is important there. Its a contact. That means they were close in contact there should be stips of some kind that is right there on the body. The question is, was there a separation and distance . He could have been shot at the car like everyone suggested he was. But then he turns and leaves. Then the question is what was the distance between
Michael Brown
and the officer when those shots were fired . If theres some distance, for example, ten feet or more, then thats an important part to suggest he was turning away. He could have been shot at the car and turned and ran away and still have his hands up and still raise question about whether theres a justifiable shooting. Theres forensic to suggest that the shoot there was some shooting at the car but some away from the car. Having blood on him would make sense because they were struggling in the car. I think one of the witnesses said there was a shot when he was at the car. What is not explained is his account is theres no explanation why the officer emerged from his vehicle and fired on mike brown six times. Theres no explanation as to those actions, according to the report. I would say this. If there was a fight at the car. Theres no question he would have gotten out of the car and pursued him. Once hes pursuing him from distance should he continue to fire his gun at him as he was going away or when he stopped and turned around . Because it seems to me the critical question. Did
Michael Brown
have his hands up and when he was shot . It would not make sense for
Michael Brown
to be shot and turn and come back when the officer shooted at him. I think thats the dispute is going to be in terms of how much time passed between the initial shots and the distance
Michael Brown
was away at the time he was fatally shotted. Did he have his hands up at the time he was shot . If he did, it seems you have drl charges that should be filed against the officer. You have been involved with the high profile civil cases. The officials said while the federal investigation was continuing, the evidence so far did not support civil rights charges against officer wilson . I dont agree with that. I think the real question is if in fact the shooting took place after his hands were up, that means you intended to shoot him. You intended to kill him. Thats all that is required. Contrary to what people think. There isnt much difference between a civil rights violation and a murder violation, if in fact, it occurred. The feds would not come in and do this case until after a clear decision had been made by the county prosecutoprosecutors. If they decide to indict they would not indict. On the other hand, if the prosecution doesnt indict, the feds would have a cause to consider whether they should. I dont think it makes that much difference between a murder charge and civil rights violation. Its still a question what is the evidence and a question did the officer intend to kill him at the time he shot him. If you shot somebody in the head multiple times you intend to kill them. Thats not as critical of observation and evaluation. Thank you, john. Developing now were awaiting to hear if
Human Remains Found
this weekend belong to
Hannah Graham
. A team found remains saturday morning on an abandoned property heavily wooded area. Not far from charlottesville. A police notified grahams parents and calling the case a death investigation. No comment from the attorney representing jesse matthew. He was the man last seen with
Hannah Graham
on
Surveillance Video
the night she vanished and charged last month with her abduction. Hes not entered a plea. Luke, as i understand we could hear something any moment now from authorities on these remains . Reporter well, we could hear as early as today if these remains are, in fact, those of hannah gram. But more likely we suspect it should be early krer this week. Obviously, we have to wait for the
Forensic Team
do the positive id, if in fact, it is graham. Thats the speculation for a few reasons. One, her remains were found close to a pair of black pants. Thats when she was last wearing when she was last seen. H the remains were found of those of another student that disappeared in 2009. Theres been a dna connection to jesse matthew. Her remains were found several miles from the site. Those things put together are leading investigators to believe they have a good chance of being able to id the remains of graham. That is still speculation. We dont know anything that is definitive. On saund huge voluntary search planned for graham that was called off as you mentioned her parents have been informed. And just the mood of the community, tamron, i can tell you from seeing where i was here in september theres somber. Then sort of the story was off the front pages for a little bit. Students went back to having a normal life. All the emotions of sadness have come back over the weekend with the news, tamron. Absolutely. Thank you very much. Well keep you up to date.

Supreme Court
ruled over the weekend that the state will be allowed to enforce the strict new voter id law. The court rejected appeals from civil rights grouches and the
Obama Administration
who argued that the law discriminates against minorities. In a scathing sixpage dessert
Justice Ginsburg
agreed writing, quote, the greatest threat to
Public Confidence
in elections this case is the prospect of enforcing a purposefully discriminate our law one that risks deny the right to vote to hundred of thousand of eligible voters. According to ginsburg, the texas law will prevent more than 600,000 people orr about 4 1 2 of registered voters from casting a ballot. She writes that a majority of those voters are black or hispanic. And joining me now
Huffington Post
justice reporter. Thank you for your time. Sure. Lets talk about the nature and the tone of
Justice Ginsburg
s dissent here. Very clear language on where she stands and what she sees as the consequences of this. Yes, absolutely. What is interesting, i think, here obviously the big case it connects to is the voting right case we had last summer. In the opinion when the
Supreme Court
struck down the voting right action they said section two. There was a case brought under section two but voters arent going to be protected in the upcoming election. A law found purposefully not only found purposefully zalgs is going to be in effect. Texas
Officials Say
that all are able to obtain a id. They had the largest population grow of any state. 3. 6 more registered voters than in 2012, 27 of all eligible voters in texas are latino. When you look at the projection numbers alone, you wonder if more than the hundreds of thousands that
Justice Ginsburg
believes will be affected by this. If the number is not more. Yeah. Thats true. Also, a the lot of voters live far from a place where they can go and get a form of identification. And theres also a circumstance where you need a birth certificate in order to get your id form. The state has offered birth certificates for the specific purpose at a discounted rate i think at 2. They havent advertised it well. Its one of the issues civil
Rights Groups
think will be an issue here for voters. In her dissent she went on to say
Racial Discrimination
in elections in texas is no mere historical art fact to the contrary texas has been found in violation of the
Voting Rights
act in every redistricting cycle from an and after 1970 that historical art fact comment, i think, a clear remark districted at one of the justices. Absolutely the case. This is case where theyre saying you said it was going to be okay. Because there was a other part of the voting right act that would allow voters to stop this from taking place. Here is a case where it hasnt. Its going to be in effect for the election cycle. Thank you for your time, ryan. Gay

Rights Groups
are expressing disappointment after an extraordinary gathering of catholic bishops rejected a wider acceptance of gays, which pope francis had supported. The two week long gathering ended this weekend with the bishops issuing a final report that eliminated liberal language on same sex and divorced families that was contained in an interim report. In their final report, the bishops removed the words about the gifts and qualities gays can offer
Christian Communities
saying gays, quote, must be received with respect and sensitivity. On the other hot button topic whether divorced and remarried catholics can receive communion. Final report saying more study is needed. Joining me now is the executive director. Glad to be here. What were hearing from a lot of vatican watchers is the pope got what he wanted from this meeting. Even though that language was changed. He wanted a spirited public debate of the issue. Explain the mind set there well, in previous pagan sis when bishops met they were told what to say from the two popes. But pope francis really wanted an open debate. Hes he wants discussion. He got that. He received all sorts of messages from the various bishops. And that has been the real blessing of the past two weeks. And just looking at, for example, some of of the votes for the paragraph regarding gays how to vote of 104 in favor. 74 opposed. They have the numbers in reverse there. We see a glimpse of voting there. Yes. It was required to have twothirds majority but it did receive simple majorities. The positive statements. So it only lost by a handful votes which shows there is great support among the number of bishops in the church for accepting and welcoming lesbian gay people. A lot of people will be curious that the response to divorced and remarried catholics that more study is needed what more study is needed there . Well, i think that what they mean by more study is more discussion. I think the bishops need to hear from lay people, they need to hear from theologians who have been studying the matter. The fact is, weve had silence for so long on sexual issues in the church, and that now that the ice has been broken its going to be important for bishops to hear all perspectives on these matters. Its interesting at the end a speech to the bishops pope francis said the
Catholic Church
needs to chart a middle course between a false sense of mercy. Your reaction . I think thats a very wise statement that he made. Because hes letting people know that all sides are going to be heard and that one extreme is not going to hold over the other. Hes showing that there can be a winwin situation in these discussions of very, very sensitive and controversial topics of the church. Thank you so much for your time. We greatly appreciate you joining us. Obviously the conversation, the important conversation will continue even beyond this moment. Thank you so much. Greatly appreciate it. Coming up

I remember the day that i walked in to my folks bedroom and my mother had her best dress out. I was trying to figure out what it meant. I was 12. She was crying, talking to herself. We will not lose this house.

Political Editor
mark murray. Good to see you. Good morning. As i pointed out president early voting illinois. Bill clinton in arkansas. So you have the democrats, if you watched any of the sunday morning programs certainly the outlook looked bleak. Never the less, minimum wage, some of the other issues were seeing the talk ramped up around that. Democrats have to fire up their voters. This is always going to ab big challenge in the
Midterm Election
given so much of the partys base turns out more in president ial contest than in
Midterm Election
s p. Youre seeing
Elizabeth Warren
on the campaign trail. Bill clinton, president obama do the same thing. There was a recent poll that showed republicans had the clear enthusiasm advantage. 42 of republicans are more enthusiastic and excited about the elections than usual. 34 of democrats say the same thing. Enthusiasm matters when you talk about a one, two, or three point race. Democrats are starting to ring the bell and trying to go get their people fired up. Who should control congress likely voters a 49 say republicans. 44 say democrats. And as pointed out, mark, the crowd in iowa certainly responded to senator warrens comments about minimum wage and how her family was able to survive. Her mother raised a family of four with minimum wage. The president s rally, at least according to reuters, report there, when he was campaigning for democratic candidate for governor

News Conference
in a few hours tow discuss the
Violent Party
that lead to injuries an arrests at
Keene State College
. Police in riot gear had to use tear gas and rubber bullets to break up the parties and crowds near the 23rd annual pumpkin festival saturday afternoon into sunday people flipped over cars, lit fires. Officials are reviewing videos like the ones youre seeing to identify those responsible. Some students could be expelled. Joining me now a sophomore what witnessed the violence and assistant metro editor at the boston globe. What happened . I think thats the number one thing people wondering how does a pumpkin festival turn into
Something Like
that . It was near the festival not actually at the festival. Its something weve seen according to reports over the last couple years. Right. It was, just, like it got way out of hand this year. It was way more people. Last year it was definitely a different scene. This year there was way more people. People got way too excited. People had a little too much alcohol and it turned into may him. I hear you when they say got excited. How exciting can a pumpkin festival be . This turns into the scene. I know, theres alcohol involved. Were hearing its a part of the behavior. Were the fires stoked days in advanced . Did you see folks chatting on facebook or emails . No. I had no idea it was going to happen. All my friends were excited for the pumpkin festival itself and we were not expecting it to turn into this at all. I know you were in what kind of injuries did you sustain . I had a bottle thrown at my hand so hard i actually lost consciousness for a little and a couple cans hit my head pretty hard. It was crazy. It doesnt represent the students at our school at all. It was definitely a lot of visitors who came and destroyed our school. I love my school. I would never, like, partake in any of these riots. The statement from the
College President
said we are actively working to identify the individuals who participated in unlawful behavior and those who are identified will be held accountable. We dont tolerate the outrageous behavior that occurred. It doesnt represent a great many students who attend the college. As you just pointed out, soninlaw of these were nonstudents. But never the less, the school is looking at video because they believe some students were involved in this. Definitely. I would definitely say it was a lot of out of staters, people from other schools who came and just didnt care about the consequences. So they, i mean, definitely some of our students were involved, but i would, not, like, say that is how our school is represented. Mike, the other scene i think that caught the eye of some people, again, were seeing police in riot gear, swat style clothing in a confrontation what seems unarmed citizens even though many were throwing bottles and you heard her say she was injured severely injured there as women. Were seeing this confrontation, again, of heavily armed police facing off with certainly behavior that is instructive and dangerous. The police felt that the situation was getting out of hand and they had a lot of this equipment up at their disposal to use. The big question at the press
Conference Today
is who is responsible . What do the tapes show . There was talk there was a house party in the area in the afternoon that somehow got out of hand. It may have been one of the things that started it. It kind of spread to other areas of the city. There is talk of outside being involved along with students. The question is who started it and a lot of people were saying the police were restrained in fact there could have been more damage trying to get people under control. I think the video tapes will show a lot. But i think the police felt that they had to use some of the equipment to keep the peace. Theyre going defend themselves. Absolutely. We expect them to do so. In recent years as pointed out earlier, the festival has attracted large crowds, mike. Even as we understand, authorities and hospitals have been placed on high alert to be aware this kind of thing can happen. Were they caught flat footed . Ill prepared and to have the extremely strong response some believe . I think thats unclear. I think there was a lot of
Police Visibility
during the day. The question is when things start getting out of hand, obviously, a decision was made to bring some reinforcements in. I think, you know, at umass last year during the blowout. Police felt they had to restore when one situation get out of control. Did they have the right response all those things are being examined at umass right now. I think the question is did the police dot right thing . Did they do the appropriate response . Theyre going to answer some of the questions today. The question is a lot of citizens came forward and said they felt the police did the right thing. It will be interesting to see what the response is. There were more than 40 arrests. I think
Police Responded
230 calls for help during a 24hour period during that time. Thats incredible. Thank you very much. I know, your parents and family have to be mortified at what happened. Were happy youre okay. Thank you. Enjoy the rest of the school year. Take care. Thanks police dealing with a possible serial killer in indiana.

. There has been no comment from governor tom corbett after a buzz feed report that all of the people in this photo they were photo shopped in. Buzz feed said the campaign confirmed that and now that the photo is gone and there is a new photo on the governors website. There is no information on the change. Thats a strange thing we thought you should know. Misty copeland began dancing at the late age of 13. That is late in that world. In whats called a dance prodigy months after her first class. She is accepted into the prestigious ballet theater and became the first africanamerican female soloist. A rise to excellency was not easy as highlighted in this wildly popular under armor commercial where a rejection letter was read similar to the criticism she endured through her life. Unfortunately you have not been accepted. You lack the right feet, a kill seize tendons, turn out. Torso length and bust. She went on to become the first black ballerina in history to dance in firebird and released two books. We are all so excited to have you. Good to see you. Good to see you too. When you saw the completed under armor ad, what did you think. I cried. I cried when i heard the young girl read the letter. I heard that before we phone filmed any of the footage. It was like hearing my young self or these young dancers i mentor. Just all the criticism that we receive in the ballet world especially as africanamerican dancers. Its really tough, but to be able to have under armor highlight it with perveerns and succeeding through the negativity is what gees people so emotional. Your story is one of legend. 13 is considered an older teenager or older person in the world of ballet. I would imagine that a lot of young people who dont know your struggles assume this doesnt happen to

. She was a prodigy. Look at what she is. They dont know the back story. Its not just me. Yes, i had struggles before i started dancing, personal struggles. I feel that ballet was the one thing that saved my life and put me on this path to have this different life. In what way . Growing up one of six children with a single parent and moving around and not always having a place to stay or food on the table. It was not expected i would end up in this elite world, this very elite white world. It wasnt expected. My body i think was built for it. When i became a professional, i realized how difficult it was to be an african american. You have the dance and there have been many africanamerican women to dance firebird and so many of them came from harlem. I was the first to do it with the american ballet theater in that different world in terms of it not being a black company. It was such a big deal and important for dancers of all colors to be able to see that we can exist in any part of the world that you dont have to join a
Ballet Company
where everybody looks like you to succeed. You should have the option to go anywhere you want. As an africanamerican, just your background and thats relatable to girls of any background. And boys. It is about overcoming the obstacles. How did you find time to write two books . The idea for firebird for the
Childrens Book
came about before the memoire actually. All of this happened while i was recovering from a really bad injury and i had surgery. It was almost two years ago. I dont really have a lot of time now with my performance and rehearsal schedule, but during that time that i was off, vulnerable when i was away from the stage. This was an artistic outlet when i wasnt performing. Firebird came about with
Christopher Meyers
and its focused on mentorship. The relationship i have with the ballet in the 50s and she is one of my mentors and lives a couple of blocks from me. Its me and the young dancer who is having doubts and fears and guiding her along the way. Its an incredible book and your journey is inspiring. Thank you so much for joining.
